Positives [+] and Negatives [-]
+ A unique episodic survival-thriller story.
+ Unique combat mechanics.
- Level pacing is all over the place.
- Controls can be wonky especially sprinting and dodging.
I've known this game since my Xbox 360 days, but didn't have the interest to play it until now. The story is not the typical ghosts, zombies, and killer maniacs you would find in these types of games.
I love how you need to shine a flashlight to expose and weaken enemies, also used as a crosshair instead of the normal crosshair you see in other games. The game would constantly change camera perspective from the left shoulder to the right and vice versa. The standard is usually the camera being on the character's right shoulder. Though, it doesn't seem to be an error/glitch as moving the camera in certain ways changes the perspective. Some sections were challenging due to Alan's short stamina and awkward dodging.
It was a good experience nonetheless.
