    It's just good, the characters are loveable, the gameplay is fun and the story is good. It has that Sony action-adventure vibe in it, with top-level story telling.

    Tolle Grafik, tolle Atmosphäre, packende Geschichte und fesselnd bis zum Schluss.
    Endlich mal ein vermeintlich vorerst tragisches Ende das berührt.

    Amazing seuqel to an amazing game. It's bigger, longer and I had great time playing it, even though it's very linear and you have almost no space to improvise/explore.

    This game has spectacular views which makes me keep taking screen shots all the time. The story is a good one, especially the ending. There are many different interactions with NPC (like telling them to operate something or catching the torch you throw to them), which also makes it very interesting.

    The game is almost a masterpiece.
    It has really learned a lot from its predecessor.
    At first I was afraid that it would be very similar to the first part and therefore not really varied, but that was definitely not the case.
    Many new mechanics were added, even Hide & Seek, which really lightened up the game.

    - No bugs
    - Many new mechanics
    - Very compelling story

    Abstract: The best way I can describe this game is just one word: solid. Everything about this game is rock-solid, from the story to the graphics, it all balances out to make a very good game. There's no glaring flaws with this game, no massive problems with gameplay, graphics, or story that ruin the whole experience. Everything is polished and Requiem is definitely a game that I would recommend to others, and it is 100% worth the price tag. The story is moving, it looks beautiful, and it's a good step forward from Innocence. It takes about 15-20 hours to beat, and 25-30 hours to 100%.

    In Depth Review (SPOILERS):
    --The Good:--

    Graphics:
    Where do I even begin... this game is simply beautiful. Every second of this game is amazing and beautiful, looking better than most triple a games today. The developers obviously went all out on this one, putting their heart and soul into every single model, texture, and set piece in this game.

    Sounds & Music:
    In my honest opinion, the soundtracks for these games don't get the love that they deserve. The beautiful choral and orchestral scores always manage to blow me away whenever they kick in. Just have such a weight to them and a feeling of deep sadness. Sound queues also play a very important role in this game, giving tells as to whether an enemy is looking at you or coming your way. The perfect beautiful soundtrack and sound design to match the beautiful set design.

    The Characters:
    The most important part of this game that had to work for the whole game to work, is the relationship between Hugo and the player. This game knocks it out of the park. There's literally so many adorable Hugo moments that will melt the coldest of hearts, and leave them hollow by the time the credits roll. On top of Hugo, every side character in this game is very likable, and by the end of the game you genuinely care about all of them.

    The VA's
    No elaboration needed, they all killed it.

    --The Mid:--

    Story:
    Honestly the story felt like a wild goose chase. There's nothing objectively wrong with that, I just couldn't justify putting it in either the good or the bad category, so I think it belongs in the middle. It does a very good job getting the message across that it wants to, and it certainly is a step up from the confusing story of Innocence. However, this story mostly suffers from a confused third act that has waaaay too much going on, but the ending makes up for it. It's like a punch to the gut, then when you've just finished crying the final level happens and it just gets even worse.

    Gameplay:
    Many parts of this game are walking sims. It works if you enjoy listening to characters interact or admiring the scenery but it can get boring fast, especially if you are replaying. As mentioned in the difficulty section, it can be very broken but generally takes base elements from innocence and expands on them. Sometimes for better, and other times for worse.

    --The Ugly:--

    Difficulty:
    I've beat this game twice, first on Narrative difficulty (easy), and the second time on NG+ difficulty (hardest), and at best this game is ridiculously easy on both. I'm not a hardcore gamer and I really loved that narrative difficulty provided some challenge while mostly allowing me to appreciate the game for what it is, but NG+ felt like I was playing narrative mode again. There's several factors that make this game very easy and limit the replay-ability for players wanting more of a challenge their second time though. The "counter" system is literally broken. Basically if an enemy is alerted to you and walks toward you, you have the ability to attack and stun them for a short period of time. This trivializes the penalty for being caught. Where in Innocence, you would die and be forced to restart, in Requiem I would find myself countering the enemy then mad dashing toward the next section. Additionally, he fully upgraded crossbow also instantly trivializes the ENTIRE stealth system. Fully upgraded crossbow allows you to retrieve shot crossbow bolts off dead enemies, so you have infinite ammo for a weapon that one-shots all enemies (except fully armored ones which take 2 shots). As you can tell, this presents a problem for a game centered around using stealth and the environment to take out enemies.

    Facial Animations:
    This is more of a nitpick but whenever characters are out of cutscenes or scripted events, when they talk there is literally no facial expression. They just dead-eye, blank stare the camera and it feels like you're playing Skyrim.

    The Bad Camera Angle Rat Chases
    Felt like I was playing a resident evil game and killed me a lot more times than it should have.

    Amicia's Hair:
    Girl literally gets violated by Arnaud and has to buzz the sides because of it, then the Count makes it even worse and she just goes full bald. Second biggest tragedy in the game. RIP

    Conclusion: 9/10 would cry again    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Genuinely one of the best story games I have ever played. While its combat elements of course aren't comparable to those of The Witcher for example, it excels at what it is designed for. Improving on the first game, you can finally more freely decide whether you want to sneak past everything, make use of the different slingshot/crossbow ammunition, or to mostly just brawl through, with most parts of the game offering you multiple paths/ways to the desired goal.

    What this game REALLY does better than any other game I have played so far is making a both realistic but wonderful looking world and environment that wonderfully fits the storytelling. The story itself is touching all the way through.

    Spoiler part:
    ----------------
    While I usually prefer happy endings, this one just hits hard and... makes sense. An ending where they cured Hugo through some miracle or the power of friendship would have heavily undermined/retconned the characteristic obsession that Amicia pushed the group forward with.    … Expand

    First of all, I strongly recommend the use of Dualsense for this game, it gives an incredible experience, besides playing it in its original language.

    This is perhaps one of the few titles that really feels like a new generation game, and I'm not talking about stressing the hardware too much. The setting and the technical section are brutal, it is visually beautiful, but not everything is ''how it looks'', in games focused on the narrative the most important thing is ''how it feels'', it is a direct continuation of its prequel, I could say that its gameplay improved, it does not feel rough as the previous one felt in certain moments, now it is perceived greater versatility and they gave Amicia ways to defend herself removing the insta-kill present in the previous installment, also the stealth is improved.

    The story is completely tragic, in many parts of the game when apparently everything gets better, then it gets worse again and the situation feels even more complicated, this basically happens throughout the course of the game, somehow gives hope to then give light to an end not at all promising, but quite expected. All this is told through a symbiotic relationship between cinematics and gameplay very well constructed, in this sense one could believe that this is a PlayStation Studios game.

    Something that could be criticized is the optimization, especially on consoles, I played it on PS5 and my surprise was quite big when I found out that it was limited to 30 FPS and suffered terrible drops even at 20 FPS, that on PC was solved, since with quite demanding graphics settings I achieve 60 FPS stable in areas where there is no action and no abuse of alchemy and even better results using the mod that allows using the FSR technology (all this with a GPU equivalent to the new generation consoles).

    For me it is a game that everyone should play, I take into consideration that there are people who don't play games with plot and cinematics and stay in the typical generic shooter game #427, but this experience I would really wish it to anyone.

    In conclusion, A Plague Tale Requiem is A Plague Tale Innocence, but better and feels like a spiritual GOTY, which certainly had nothing to do against two giants, but it could have taken some consolation prize because it deserved it.    … Expand

Devo ressaltar que o design de áudio é absurdo, os efeitos sonoros misturados com as trilhas criam atmosferas muito impactantes. A escolha de cada trilha é muito bem feita e cuidadosa. Adorei o paralelo com o início do primeiro jogo e o final do segundo, onde Amicia se aventura em uma floresta com a música tema ao fundo.

However, Gameplay is not the driving force behind this title. The key role is played by the storyline, which, unlike the previous part, keeps a level throughout the gameplay. The story cleverly broke out of its poor position after the end of Plague Tale Innocence and is only getting more interesting with time. On the plus side, there's also a non-obvious ending and a few twists and turns. Although I'm not an enthusiast of an exaggerated amount of fantasy elements, they are well balanced and don't get in the way. Particularly impressive during the gameplay is the great graphics, many times I came across landscapes at which I stopped for a longer moment. The atmosphere of medieval France was also brilliantly portrayed in the game. Returning to the gameplay, many times we come across different types of puzzles, which are not particularly difficult, but are a nice alternative to stealth or combat. Combat hasn't improved much from the previous game, and unfortunately there's definitely more of it, slingshot shooting at multiple armed enemies is not only absurdly unrealistic but also not very fun, and the newly added crossbow is not only too op, but shooting it doesn't provide any satisfaction. Sneaking, on the other hand, could sometimes be annoyingly difficult for me when it could come to situations where we had a window of a few seconds to evade enemies, and a minimal mistake ended up in detection. More than once I ran between enemies reaching the next checkpoint or getting killed and being reborn at the very end of the sequence. In conclusion, A Plague Tale Requiem is not a perfect title especially when it comes to gameplay, but it defends itself with a great story and is certainly a step up from its predecessor.… Expand

    A real masterpiece. This is not only a game but a truly immersive and touching experience. Plote and characthers are written very well. Gameplay is an improvment over the first chapter. What really amazes is the artistic direction and the great variety of situations and scenarios. A big applause to the English dubbing which helps to make the dialogues even more touching.

    Better storytelling than the first game, a highly endearing character, and a poignant storyline. However, the gameplay remains the game's weak point.

    Plague Tales are my favourite games of all time. From someone who has played 35+ story games including RDR2, both Norse GOD of Wars, horizon zero dawn, all three Assassins creed RPGs etc. Great presentation and the most heartfelt and emotional story with the most beautifully written, acted and designed characters I've experienced.

    Also I consider these survival games rather than stealth games

    The story and gameplay were very repetitive at times, but I played until the end of the story. Since there are not many alternatives in the cinematic playground, they could enter the field of the best, but they could make the gameplay richer. Attempts to extend game time sometimes brought the game to the point of quitting.

    Great follow-up. It's another story about the tragic fate of two siblings. It doesn't bring anything groundbreakingly new, but it improves on what worked and surprised in the first volume, and because of that, it still entertains. [Issue#323]

    Requiem is trying its best to make everything even more beautiful, impressive and varied, yet it is still just a decent sequel to a good game. The overall impression is let down by the muddled third act, rudimentary stealth mechanics and forced combat sequences.

    A Plague Tale: Requiem is a pitch-black sequel that makes sure to remind you of that suffocating feeling at every chance, with scenes of hopelessness, the stench of putrefaction and a deluge of filthy rodents. It's not pleasant, but is should be lauded nonetheless.
