    The story is shallow, the finale unsatisfying, and aside from about four instances, your choices have absolutely no impact on the story. The constantly escalating music runs on a loop and is rather distracting. The last part of the tetralogy is simply stupid. [Issue#324]

    The game feels like a regression from Supermassive's previous work. The Quarry was a refreshing return to form for Supermassive, but The Devil in Me and the overall lackluster quality of the rest of The Dark Pictures Anthology make me think that this IP may be out of ideas.

    With so much potential under their belt after their last successful release, Supermassive dropped the ball with The Devil in Me, leaving players with crappy graphics, crappier mechanics and the crappiest of characters.

    It may entertain the fan, but it makes it clear that a complete overhaul of the formula is overdue.

    This game was a massive improvement over the previous games and took it in different direction and it pulled off

Many game breaking bugs that require you to restart the game. A lot of slow crawling and climbing in an attempt to make the playtime longer. The story itself is really boring and predictable, and many things remain unanswered. I’ve played the entire dark pictures series and can say that this one is the worst of them all.… Full Review »
