10/10
An extraordinary experience and one of my absolute favorite games.
The incredible atmosphere, gorgeous visuals, phenomenal sound design and soundtrack make the entire world feel like a living, breathing organism. Everything feels unsettling, mysterious and strangely fascinating.
Dylan is an incredibly fun and relatable protagonist, and his wholesome relationship with Zoe brings surprising warmth to an otherwise disturbing world.
The combat and traversal are exceptional, offering a wonderfully complex and dynamic experience with countless abilities, finishers, summons and status effects to master.
Memorable characters, outstanding gameplay and Remedy's wonderfully bizarre storytelling come together in an absolute masterpiece. A game I'll be thinking about for years.
