Wow. Just, wow. A complete different story for a game. I played with headphones like recommended and I felt like I totally have that all voices in my head and my soul from the beginning till the end of the game. Don't want to spoil things for new beginners but, this game is something else then you've played any game before.
Senua is a such a poor soul with a broken heart and looking for answers, a hope. To put myself in her shoes while playing is like nothing else. Just mind blowing. But, the question is, do I really like this experience as a "game"? There was so many moments made me disturbed. I'm a 30 yo man, still felt horror against some scenes. I don't recommend this game if you have a mental problem, scary things or any, mmm how can I say, hellish ambients and etc.

Dense atmosphere, great sound design, very pretty, but ultimately disappointing. The apparent bold and unique vision for the game's narrative devolves into something pretty generic by the end. This is a real bummer since the game starts with so much promise.
combat is decent, puzzles are repetitive but level design changes it up enough to stay fresh for the couple hours it takes to finish this game.
I honestly don't have much to say about the psychosis part because I have no experience with psychosis whatsoever.
My only real gripe here is the absolute abysmal walking speed
The story, atmosphere and visuals are amazing! The game takes place in some very interesting places. But the actual gameplay... While the puzzles and combat feel OK in the beginning, towards the end I just felt annoyed when I saw a door with runes on it or Senua drew her sword. And the length of the combat phases as well as their frequency just went up in the last chapters.
