Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II

It's out and getting great reviews.

I just saw it on game pass looks good .

It's about 5 hours long, isn't it?

[Trustmeimadoctor]

So far it's horrifically boring

[Hoofy]

As always it doesn't tell me what it smells of, and even worse, is this a men's or women's fragrance?

It's been getting some pretty middling reviews. It's a sequel to a dull walking simulator, so I'll pass.

The xbox centric reviews are high as are those from the usual ones who like the smell of their own farts and give it an automatic+4 stars for the mental health aspect of the story.

However, the more honest reviews are panning it for the dull and repetitive gameplay, which is supposed to be (somehow) even worse than the first game.

Having tried to get into the first game a number of times before getting bored, I too will be giving this a pass.

I gave it 30 minutes before I turned it off and it won't be going back on, it looked pretty but that's it's. I don't want to sit there just pressing forward and occasionally hitting the sword button

Another pile of boring crap farted out by Microsoft. Remember when Microsoft used to put out good games? I do, but it feels like a very long time ago now.

Yeah, the first game looked stunning (bought it on Steam) but was pretty boring gameplay-wise. I might give this a go as I have Gamepass on the PC but I'm not that enthused about even bothering to d/l it.

Unfortunately, virtue points don't make a good game.

It's a glorified Unreal 5 tech demo that should have come out as a release title for x box X.

Its the epitome of modern gaming journalist bait. Walking simulator, infinite retries almost instantly from same point and doesn't have much substance.

Even after doing well there's feeling Microsoft may can the studio.

A second great gaming crash is coming

Tried for about 3 hours with the first game and it never gripped me so canned it off and played Horizon Zero Dawn instead. Can't imagine this one's got more going on?
