Keyofx Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Yea, I don't recall if permadeath was ever confirmed. I assumed it was just a fake out. And I think Senua was played by a random Ninja Theory employee or something. They had regular video updates on YouTube before launch detailing just how you make a game of that scale on a small budget. Pretty cool stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have died 4 times so far. 2 of thoses were bugs where the camera clipped behind the door or wall during combat and I couldn't see anything. Other 2 were during running from the fire monster in one of the Odin trials. That was tense af. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game does sort of tell you about permadeath in the beginning, while explaining the "black curse" thingy spreading on Senua's skin.

dylanjosh Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Finished the game. Fantastic experience. Got frustrated by the combat in the later stage so toned down the difficulty. There are some invisible walls and sh*t during combat thats annoying af. One time I died and respawned in the middle of combat but Senua wasn't in "combat mode" so was walking around like normal with her sword sheathed. Their depiction of psychosis is excellent. I read some accounts of people really having Psychosis and they said it's very accurate, down to the visual colours and stuff. Such a great way to make other people understand what it's like. This is 100% a must-play game (for game pass owners) just for that aspect. Admittedly I should have paid more attention to the story since its a very important part of the game. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an example of what the gaming medium is capable of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those games that stay with you for a while. Truly a unique experience with headphones on. The big multilevel puzzle area had gotten a bit annoying for me. But I suck at puzzles in general, so.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they've pretty much nailed the depiction of people suffering from psychosis. Very unfortunate condition, but glad to see the awareness of it being spread via this game. The hellblade feature video is so well made and it explains more about this condition. +1 its a must play game especially if you own the game pass. The story is so well done. Hands down this was one of my best games i played in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWolf Posted August 10, 2021 Report Share Posted August 10, 2021 Very subtle differences. RT mode improves shadow reflection in certain areas. Not worth playing since frame rate gets capped to 30fps in RT mode. 60fps mode looks really good and way to play for SX n S owners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
