Or:
"PERHAPS, THIS IS HELL."

What do I even say to this, man? This has been a game I've been meaning to play for a very, very long time and I'm glad I finally finished it, because holy shit. Might write a big review later but I'm too stunned at the moment, that ending genuinely knocked all the air out of me and is pretty easily the closest a game has come to making me cry in ages. fuck.

"Motherfucking no."

in the club where I think this is miles better than the first game (there's dozens of us!!) - really, if the game didn't totally flub it's ending story-wise I wouldn't hesitate to call this a great game. The atmosphere here is second to none, especially the school sections which routinely scared the shit out of me (the first big scare that legitimately made me shout) and the chases are usually really tense and well designed! I really do not get the trial and error criticism because I never found myself getting lost for long periods of time, and I'm a fucking moron!

more bullet points because I'm eepy and don't feel like writing

- I have a soft spot for blood rain so I immediately adored chapter 4

- the transitions to the flashbacks (for the most part) were incredible, legitimately stunned me almost every time it happened

- fully understand why you'd hate how extreme this thing goes with the gore but idk, I really liked just how far it takes its extremity. SA stuff still fucking blows though.

all in all I really liked this for the most part! Everyone's wrong, this rocks
