A Plague Tale: Requiem

This one is so much better than the previous game, the story is more interesting and their are a lot of new mechanics in the game like the crossbow and the new kind of alchemical slings. The game is so beautiful , I didn't except it from a plague game. There are many many rats more than in the previous. This game is more emotional, and their are so much deads. When I played it feel like this is not a game this is real bc of the dialogues and the atmosphere. The game is a little bit challenging but if you're played stealth games before its not a problem. I glad I have got game pass and I glad I could play this game.

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.

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.

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.

This is definitely an experience.

I probably have the same complaints about this one, as about the original game. It sometimes introduces mechanics that seem like one-offs, and potentially could be a cinematic instead, and some dialogues (mostly secondary ones) feel a bit rushed or shallow. But, boy, does it delivery on the narrative overall... It's the little things here and there. Some small comments, small interactions, not necessarily from Alecia or Hugo, too. They make things feel... More real. There is proper character progression for most characters here. It's not always perfect, but it is there and it makes sense. Anger, desperation, abandon, relief and even fleeting happiness. They just work. We probably should have spent a bit more time with some characters (beside Sophia) for the connections to feel more solid, but objectively they were secondary to Alecia's and Hugo's relationship.

Gameplay wise this also seems like an overall improvement on what was provided in previous game. I would say there is no drastic changes, and additions are rather minor overall, but they all fit quite nicely and give you enough flexibility and challenge. There was also this "open-world-like" section, and it worked quite well, aside from the fact that you had to walk a lot. They also could have merged chapters 14 to 17 into 1, because individually they were much shorter than the rest, and it felt off to me.

Not sure if it's really worth it to replay it even with NG+ mode, unless you just want to try a higher difficulty, but its 16-20 hours are definitely worth the (full) price.
