The Sinking City 2 ditches the thinky stuff for classic survival horror, but I'm yet to decide if its truly better for it
In The Sinking City 2, the shift from narrative depth to classic survival horror is both intriguing and risky. Exploring the waterlogged Miskatonic University sets a tense atmosphere, but the reliance on horror tropes may alienate fans of the original's storytelling. The last call for survivors echoes a sense of urgency, yet the gameplay feels repetitive at times. - The visuals are striking, enhancing immersion, - but the character development suffers in favor of jump scares. While nostalgia for Arkham's eerie charm is palpable, it raises questions about the series' identity. Overall, it's a compelling experience, albeit a mixed bag for long-time fans.
