Hellblade - Way too pretentious storywise

[Playstation Tablet 1,772]

This game suffers from the David Cage syndrome of Heavy Rain and especially Beyond 2 Souls. It thinks its telling a story, way beyond what they're actually achieving. It's a fairly hack job of a story, character, and nowhere near the impact they think they are making. Not even remotely. 

 

The game is very enjoyable, and I like it. Also feels like they are dev that just discovered facial capture, and getting an actress to make retarded faces endlessly is good character growth. 

 

Solid game. Sloppy as fuck story telling. Fire the guy that wrote/directed the story in this and Heavenly Sword ASAP, great game being held back.

I’m guessing you think the new Hellboy is pretentious, too.
