Dead Space (2023) - Review - The Horror Game You Shouldn't Have Skipped

EA have gotten a lot of things wrong from the players’ perspective with their business model and approach to the gaming industry over the years where their reputation has suffered, though sadly, that hasn’t been reflective of their profits. Amongst all of the egregious practices around monetization and advertising, there are some gems in their catalogue that should be praised. Releases that have clearly had their development teams flex their creativity and craftsmanship to produce a product that has a meaningful and positive impact of the games industry. Dead Space, is one of those games and based on comments seen online around this games lack of sales. This is likely one of the best games that you decided to skip.

interesting, been seeing a lot of dead space reviews on the remake lately. clearly on peoples minds. i loveddd playing it. only 100 hours but i was really hoping theyd remake the 2nd one...apparently it's on ice...just sad. EA kills everything. being in an interconnected ship was super fun but good lord the map was horrible. tho idk how they couldve improved it. yeah RE when you had to fight the blind dude was peak RE. Only criticism...people have reviewed the hell outta this game. we dont really need a summary or any rundown at all. I'd rather hear what you thought about the gameplay or what youd have improved. Tho it's sad you didnt like the story. Like dang man. Fixing the ship and escaping, what else are you gonna be motivated by though. seems a bit unfair.

@@finallyanime Yeah I think Dead Space 2 (Remake Series) for the moment isn’t going to be any time soon and I hope that it does get a chance because I think the gameplay and world building is top tier stuff. Agree with the map being dreadful though haha I take the criticism on board and to be honest it’s one I had of myself when I was putting this video together. I actually re-wrote the whole script for this because I realised I kinda JUST explained the game and not too many of my thoughts on it so I tried to adjust what I had into something more inclusive of my actual opinion. I did choose the first few games I did videos on to somewhat clear out my own back log and get a grip on editing and writing a bit more so I do treat them as a first attempt at all of this. As for my thoughts on the story, I guess it’s mostly the overall delivery that didn’t really have me hooked as I mentioned. I’d worked out the Marker plot twist quite a while before it was actually revealed (not entirely but enough) for it to just carry a lot less weight when it happened. I didn’t hate it at all but I just didn’t find it as gripping as I’d liked. Thanks for the comment and appreciate the time!

Dead Space is better than Resi Evil there I said it

[@Liquidizer_96]

Its a bold claim! I can see how some would prefer it in aspects but I do have a soft spot for the Resident Evil series and its longevity shows the reverence for the franchise amongst the gaming community.
