This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Wait, is Senua that bad? I was looking forward to playing that one.

[–] Romkslrqusz@lemm.ee 14 points 1 week ago

Senua is an incredible experience, but you’ll be disappointed if you go into it expecting deep / challenging combat.

I’ve heard the same is true about Scorn

Hellblade is amazing. It's a short bit very cinematic and immersive experience. Playing with headphones is a must, imho.

It's really good actually, unless you were looking for a different kind of game.

Senua is great. The combat felt fine to me, though it definitely wasn't the game's focus.

Play it with headphones! It’s insanely important. I didn’t believe it but I put on headphones after a couple hours and regretted not having started with them. I ran a mixer so my partner and I could both listen.

It's great, but it's an experience. The combat is fine, but it's how it works with the story that makes it special. Headphones are an absolute must (like, I genuinely think you will be having lesser, less authentic gameplay experience if you're not using headphones). I thought it was a lovely piece of media.
