What we like:
  • Smooth and polished gunplay
  • Excellent balance between combat and exploration
  • Visually stunning environments with charismatic antagonists
  • Addition of third-person perspective in DLC enhances replay value
  • Fun action sequences while still maintaining horror aspect
What could be improved:
  • Linear weapon progression leaves older weapons useless
  • Some segments feel too short
  • Dialogue can be cheesy and poorly delivered
