This game is worth every penny.

The atmosphere is very well done and fairly unsettling at times. The story is great and the voice actors are not bad.

The gameplay is where it shines though.

Fun 3rd person shooting with psychic-type mechanics thrown in.

I recommend this game. I’m only 3 or so hours in at this time.

I might just suck at video games, but that first boss gave me hell. Fun game for sure though.

Tomassi? The flying guy?

I’m not sure if I’ve even gotten to a boss yet.

I just finished the game last night. I really enjoyed it. I may play some more tonight to Platinum it. I have two trophies left and they are easy.

Combat was excellent. Wait until you get to the Ashtray Maze. That was a fun level.

Yah, Tomassi. He is considered a boss.

Yeah he was one of the hardest boss in a video game. On par with Bloodborne.

But the game feels so good to control.

It's incredible. I finished it last Thursday.

Probably the first game I've ever played that I read every note, listen to every recording, etc. It's all just so weird that you want to take in all the details to learn about it.

It feels great. Makes you feel like a badass.

Without spoiling it (though you've probably seen it in the trailers) - the best ability is the last one you get.

The story never gets stale. I think that is due to how strange everything is. You never know what is coming next.

Does anyone else find this game atmosphere incredibly unsettling?

The constant soundtrack of background voices, that I can’t decipher, slowly beats away at me as I play.

I chip away at it about 1-2 hours at a time and then my anxiety level is sky high.

It's made by Remedy who made Quantum Break, Alan Awake, and Max Payne.

You are this female that finds this mystery government Bureau and everyone is dead and you take over. The building is on attack and you have to fight your way through. The building is mysterious and changes as you go. The whole game I think takes place in the building.
