runs great on automatic settings + custom tweaks. if your hardware can handle it. there are known engine glitches and some artefacts here and there. not game breaking tho and they are fun to find. i love the development "lore".

overall graphics are very good. ambience is amazing. it suffers a tiny bit from ssr artfacting. it's a known limitation and fine tho.

gameplay is great. challenging as expected / wanted. new mechanics to get used too. that's on me to learn.

narrative and character design nags are a personal preference and i'll exclude it for this objective review.

the cinematic quality is very good. it breaks into the uncanny valley sometimes. although... the game is a couple years old now. some shots are very top notch tho for this time, that is before the remake of part 1. those animators did improve quite a lot.

overall 9+/10. nominal rating for the whole package.
