What players say
I will give this game 7/10 overall it's kinda fun semi-open world survival horror like evil within 2. What I don't like is about combat system kinda janky , only 2 guns, melee constantly break and story isn't very much clear why E7 has to do all of this and ending just cliff hanger.

I never wanted to enjoy a game more, but simply can`t finish it because of certain aspects of the game. It has a really good atmosphere and a well thought out story, with a lot of hidden lore scattered throughout the game. Makes you enjoy exploring, but a lot of the game is somehow still empty. GUN and MELEE mechanics is very hard and clunky, this makes it so you actually don`t want to get into combat. It`s that...
