I don't get the ranking honestly, this remake nails the atmosphere so perfectly that I replayed it twice back to back and still wanted more, every encounter…

    I don't get the ranking honestly, this remake nails the atmosphere so perfectly that I replayed it twice back to back and still wanted more, every encounter feels tense in a way most horror games never manage.

    Le gameplay est très fluide et les affrontements bien pensés, par contre certains passages tirent en longueur par rapport au reste.

    176e ça me semble encore élevé pour un remake, aussi bon soit-il techniquement.

    J'avais fait l'original il y a des années (et j'y repense encore parfois), celui-ci m'a rappelé pourquoi j'aimais cette histoire.

    Dead Space tenía tramos repetitivos también, ¿no crees que es casi inevitable en el género?

    Franchement il mérite d'être tout en haut, ce jeu est une masterclass du genre survival horror et rien ne l'égale en ce moment

    Je sais que je suis pas objectif avec cette licence, mais même en essayant je trouve rien à lui reprocher.
