Hellblade 2 is absurdly good-looking.
When youre this entranced in a games environmental storytelling, you wont mind a long walk or two.
What was perceived to be Senua’s weakness in the first game is ultimately her greatest strength.
Really, my biggest issue with Hellblade 2 is how short it is.
I dont mind a short game, but its story has to make the most of its runtime.
If I dont get a sequel, I will be rather upset.
This story is in no way conclusive to Senuas story.
One of the many similarities between this and Remedys latest, Ive found.
Much like the first game, Hellblade 2 is an entirely UI-free experience.
These encounters can get pretty challenging as the enemies get more diverse.
Nevertheless, its an incredibly polished game performance-wise if youre willing to overlook that.
Hellblade 2 is once again another spectacular acting showcase for the actress portraying Senua: Melina Juergens.
She succeeds, and then some.
