The Evil Within 2: A Horror Sequel Done Right

10/10 Tatiana Gutierrez

Only if it were a PS Exclusive, People would've blown their mind...

Masterpiece.
We need The Evil Within 3!

THE GOOD STUFF:

• The combat: The combat in this game is million times better than the previous one! They have basically taken RE4's combat and added more movement to it and it feels super good! You can move while shooting and there is a huge variety of guns in the game all of them with their own upgrades which improve certain traits, you can upgrade the weapons by weapon parts which you collect as you progress through the game.
• Open world elements: When I first heard they were making this game somewhat open world I got concerned but they absolutely nailed it! You can explore in the small open world space they have and find all sorts of upgrades and materials which help you survive. The game heavily rewards exploration and it is downright required to survive on higher difficulties. The best part is that the exploration is fun, its pretty linear and simple but really fun! You can use this communicator device to locate soldier bodies which give you ammunition and sometimes upgrades for weapon pouches so that you can carry more stuff! You find green herbs(like resident evil) and gunpowder so you can craft ammo for every weapon in the game with different materials and also you can make heals with herbs!
• The guns: There are plenty of guns in this game! 3 handguns including Sebastian's original revolver which you unlock after a story sequence! 2 shotguns which both feel great to use, I personally LOVE the first shotgun because of its sound, It feels very satisfying to shoot. There is also a sniper rifle, a flame thrower, also Sebastian's crossbow from the first game returns and it feels better than it ever did and it was by far the best weapon to shoot in the first game. So my point is that pretty much every single gun in the game feels very good to shoot so you won't be bored by all the weapons feeling dull or unoriginal.
• Tatiana Gutierrez.
• The enemy variety: There is thankfully plenty of enemy variety in this game, from normal zombies to crazy mini bosses and all sorts of creatures.
• The boss fights: I thoroughly enjoyed every boss fight in the game! The main bosses are really cool with a unique boss fight pattern and the mini bosses are also fun to tackle and they reward you well for taking them down.
• The nods to Resident Evil 4: There are plenty of very cool nods to one of the greatest action horror games of all time RE4, There is a laser handgun and a shooting range which is extremely similar to re4's merchant shooting range which gave you bottle figures.
• First person mode: You can pause the game and go turn on the first person view option any time without loading required! And the game is still super fun to play in first person and honestly it at times feels like an entirely different experience.

THE BAD:

• The story: The story and writing in this game is very mediocre and generic, you can pretty much predict everything that will happen in the game. The only thing improved from the previous game is Sebastian's personality but still he is pretty bland. The first game destroys this one in story and writing, plenty of people got confused by the story of the first game, you had to pay attention to everything to understand what was going on and it was a very well written story throughout. In this game they show you characters which you know are obviously gonna dies and they are also all very generic. The main evil company Mobius is also super dull, like they are supposed to be super powerful and controlling but [spoiler] in the end they get wrecked by like 3 people lol. [/spoiler]
• The bugs: They used a different engine for this game and it is a little bit buggy. There is nothing game breaking here just very minor bug like clipping issues with the weapons and Sebastian sometime's clipping through when climbing. Also there is a bug in first person mode which makes Sebastian stop moving for a couple of seconds.
• The characters: Everybody in the game in boring and generic af. The only characters I somewhat like are Tatiana and Sebastian. All the other cast I for sure knew was going to die, the story is just that bad.
• There is no achievement for beating the game on the Akumu difficulty which is super disappointing since that mode is super hard, not as hard as ev1's but super hard. Also the Akumu difficulty is disappointing compared to the first one. In the first one they changed enemy placements, added different enemies, changed the amount of resources and all that shit.
• There is lack of endgame rewards. In ev1 you got way more cool stuff for completing the game now you just get a bunch of shit and thats it!
