A Plague Tale: Requiem

This is the game that made me love again video games after 10 years without playing. The story is incredible and the writers understand exactly what is family and the sacrifices that comes with it. I don't know if the tv show will be as good as the game because it would only replicate this tale with probably different actors and couldn't match the game visually. Charlotte McBurney and Logan Hannan did a fantastic job playing Amicia and Hugo and because of them, you really feel their characters live and be real humans with their strengths and weaknesses. They are not perfect. And because of all that, This a masterpiece. Sad but so beautiful and strong. This is art. Ty Asobo Studio.

Must say I mostly enjoyed the experience, a few minor glitches here and there, but it didn't bother me.

A girl a sister, who is protecting her brother no matter what, she won't abandon her brother although he is sick, and because of that he is loosing control over his powers.

They are going on a journey to heal his illness Graphics are pretty good I must say, next gen worthy.

Sounds, voice acting are great also, Sometimes you have parts over and over again, untill you het that aha moment haha.

I had to use you tube a few times, because I didn't get further in the game .

But you can do it without, for sure.

After the subtitles it goes on, take note of that.

Didn't expected that, it's not a lot but still... Overall it's pretty good, a bit to dark for me though It's a puzzle action game with great graphics and sound.

Don't call it a video game, because it isn't. A Plague Tale Requiem seems to have been written by William Shakespeare himself. It's something so magnificent, powerful, sad, and epic that has transformed video games into something more than just entertainment, but has also made all of them true trye and pure poetry. Impressive! Everyone should watch or play the game at least once in their lives because this is an amazing example of what videogames should be, of what kind of interactions we should have with our characters and how the videogame industry is making videogames much more interesting than the last movies appeared in Hollywood.

Easily one of the best games of the year for me as i adored the first one, thought the story was beautifully told and the relationship between the brother and sister was very heartfelt.

This game's story while it's similar to the first one, it's a lot more vicious, brutal at the same time heartwarming but sad, the title from the first game "innocence" pretty much dies if there was any left. The voice actress for amicia kills it in her role pun intended, this is how you make a strong female protagonist, she goes above and beyond for her little brother and you can clearly see how emotionally draining it is on her but she always kept going which was really captivating.

The one minor issue i have with game is that it needs some patching for the frame rate as it can get pretty intense whenever rats are around and on the consoles the game could definitely benefit a 60fps performance mode.

As a whole to me this is how games should be, a strong narrative, great music, beautiful voice acting, intense stealth gameplay and memorable characters.

10/10 an emotional rollercoaster and one of the best games of 2022.

What depressed the players in the earlier game is much amplified here. The sadness and desperation are well presented through the intense and excellent performance of voice actors. Main characters are a main key to this game's crucial core and uniqueness.

The environment and atmosphere are a visible upgrade thanks to the more interactive world and beautiful graphics. However, there is little change in the gameplay and the puzzles could have been more intriguing. There are too many tools which simplify the challenges thanks to the diversity of various items. The ways of solving them should be more inventive rather than being solvable in 5 different ways. This is of course just a personal preference.

As for the story it is rich in creating creepy energy in almost every chapter. The game seems to have no mercy in punishing every character's decision, it is also why playing this game was so depressing. There are still heartfelt moments but all of it is usually crushed with continuous tormenting emotional torture both for the player and the protagonist.

All in all, it was one hell of a game that constantly kept me in an emotional rollercoaster.
