apolloooo 07/02/21 4:02:13 AM #1:	Crappy camera angle gives me motion sickness, repetitive "puzzle" and boring combat. It got interesting story and the developer went a great lengths to portray psychosis, but overall the game just isn't fun to play. Like i play pretentious games with crappy gameplay like pathologic, but there's at least some mechanical depth to the system. This just ugh. Maybe it does get better but i refunded just before the steam limit. --- http://i.imgtc.com/iJyp6bF.png http://i.imgtc.com/ZBw36Qh.png Thanks for the peeps that made the pics <3 if i make typos it means i am on phone <cite>apolloooo posted [p:955663182] in So hellbla...

apolloooo 07/02/21 4:08:10 AM #3:	Yup, i recognize the effort to it, but given that the puzzles makes me physically ill (have to look around with the right angle on top of a limited FOV is really a nightmare) i really don't want to power trough it. I get motion sickness easily and usually wide pov and turning off motion blur does it for me. This gam allow neither. . . I like how they explore the portrayal of mental ilness, but shame the rest of the game isnt compelling. --- http://i.imgtc.com/iJyp6bF.png http://i.imgtc.com/ZBw36Qh.png Thanks for the peeps that made the pics <3 if i make typos it means i am on phone <cite>apolloooo posted [p:955663242] in So hellbla...

UnfairRepresent 07/02/21 8:45:52 AM #10:	It's one those "You have to be into games as art" things to enjoy, like Pathologic The combat is supposed to awkward, clunky, frustrating and repetitive. It's symbolic of battling Mainia. Same way the "puzzles" are finding things "hidden" in the background of plain sight. That illogical but internally consistent paranoid logic of schizophrenia Its popular because 1. It's a decent game made with love. 2. It's one of a very short list of games that tackles mental health but does so in a balanced mature way. it's not cheap, the guys making it did research and effort into the accuracy If you just want to hit the bad things and get 10,000 points then it's an awful game ( and I say that with 0 disrespect) If you want a genuine and well thought out attempt to bring an experience and emotion out of a medium, then its excellent (and I say that with 0 praise) This is a good take from someone who suffers from psychosis playing it https://youtu.be/52flQkqj5gs --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! https://imgur.com/yPw05Ob <cite>UnfairRepresent posted [p:955666432] in So hellbla...

REMINDER The creator made himself in DmC https://youtu.be/6NkQviasY64?t=244 iirc, that was only initially, but Dante had his design changed for the final product. anyway, I bought Hellblade when it first came out, but I haven't played through it, largely because the erasing your data if you die too many times thing. but from what I later came to understand, that was just a thing to instill anxiety in the player, and isn't actually true.
