5 hours is laughably short jesus Christ haha. That by no means should be a £50 game. God of war Ragnaroks free dlc is longer than 5 hours this is a dlc at best. Especially for a game thats all about the story and emotions of playing through the game for the first time and less about replayability or a good gaming loop, only being one sitting or maybe not even a full game session long is ridiculous. If i pay £50 for a game and am already done with it and playing something else in the same day that is obsurd. It looks like a pretty good couple hours but by no means should be £50. Most £1-2 indie games ive bought can even be a dozen or two dozen hours worth of gameplay. Edit: i might reduce my "pretty good" to just an alright. I watched a vid going in depth on the combat and it looks quite bad haha, from what ive watched on stream and that other vid it isnt even really combat most of the time, the youtuber deliberately pressed the wrong buttons and let himself get hit a load to try to lose but 9 times out of ten senua would just win anyway even if you were trying to lose which is just awful, you can see it very clear at the start of this vid, penguins just unga bunga swinging and missing loads but she still keeps doing the takedowns regardless how much he gets grabbed or hit.

I think this medium need a specific name. Like Visual Novels. Cinematic games are very story heavy, have long cutscenes etc, butalso have some gameplay to support it. If those cutscenes and story heavy walk nearly absorb all gameplay. Then those "games" need another title. Which differentiate those from general games. 'Interact Movie' or something like that. Which highlights that it's a movie with gaming elements. Not a game with movie heavy elements as other cinematic games are.

Actual combat gameplay doesn’t happen till after the 29 minute mark. 23 minutes from hitting start to actually being able to fight something. The game is 7 hours long. That was 17% of the game right there, jesus Christ.

I will and so will many others. Just because you're too dumb to appreciate art and are into braindead games, don't put it on everyone else. I've played this game twice and will now replay Hellblade 1. Unique, bold and brilliant. Immense respect to Ninja Theory for sticking with the core narration and style of the IP. It's not for everyone. Maybe play gta again and run around with a gun 👍🏻

I dont see a problem with a movie game every once in awhile. Most xbox games are.multiplayer focused, so its nice to play something different sometimes.

[@Conduit_K]

@@GoldLBS I understand the point of view but I just disagree, I wouldn’t mind if it was more reasonable but I just can’t agree with playing 70$ for a 5 hour interactive movie, if it was like 30$ I completely agree. Edit: I was misinformed it’s not 70 it’s 50 which I still think is unreasonable for the product but I understand if some people are satisfied with that, I just can’t understand why anyone would buy it when you could just watch it on KZbin

I can sum it up for you: Too many cutscenes, lots of boring walking, boring walking disguised as puzzles, combat is shallow and boring and repeatative. Nice graphics though. Basically exactly the same as the first game. It’s just more of the same grey slop.

Bro was david cage on this game or what? Where is the gameplay at? Make a fuckin movie dude stop giving us walking sims. All jokes aside I wish they expanded the combat a little more, made it more impactful and more frequent with more diversity. I can imagine many scenarios that this game could be improved but it seems as though, the "small budget, high fidelity" model is still the way they want the Hellblade games to stay sadly... Why bother with a VIDEO GAME sequel if you just want it to look good and not too worried about the gameplay? Like I said you'd be better off making a movie or some tv/net series
