It's revolutionary. And the craziest part is, most people don't know it to be! What did we have before; in the good old horror game genre? Specifically, 1st person horror games? Before Resident Evil 7? Before Outlast? Before SOMA or Amnesia? We had Hellnight, or Dark Messiah as it was known in Japan. This game was simply put, a pioneer of the 1st person horror games. Exploring tight corridors with a pressuring, anxiety inducing atmosphere. The ambient track playing in the background, eerie sounds coming from the other end of a long, dark hallway. You turn around and you start running. Hellnight has a really intriguing story to tell, and you are just one helpless person caught in the middle of it all. I really wanted to give this the best rating I could give, but I cannot deny there is a specific section towards the end that really drags on for far too long, and it gets a bit ridiculous. I feel like the ending was rushed. I feel like it all ends way too abruptly. There's a huge build up, and the game just kind of falls flat on its face. Not that the ending's horrible. No. It's just, something. It's not what I think most people were expecting. And in this case, I'd say that's not necessarily a negative thing, but definitely not positive either.
