So Dead Space was never shit your pants scary, no. You can rest assured I’ll yell some words, but they’ll be expletives, and not girlish cries. I don’t scream in fright at any game – horror or not. Let me take a step back and provide some clarification.

Fortunately it seems to be widely agreed that the game was a misstep, so it doesn’t need to be made any clearer than a simple sentence. Guys? Where are you going? You’re not surprised?ĭead Space 3’s failure as a Dead Space game, and as a survival horror game, can not be simplified any further than that sentence because after the first chapter, you will know almost exactly what to expect for the next 18. Surprise, it’s an entire platoon of necros. Whereas I put Dead Space down after chapter 2 and didn’t pick it up for nearly a year afterwards because I was frightened to find out what was behind that med bay door, I put Dead Space 3 down for a year because I knew what was behind the next door, and I simply did not care. Dead Space 1 and Dead Space 3 took me extended periods of time, for axiomatically different reasons that serve to emphasize what types of games they are. In fact, the only Dead Space game I ever played that I did beat in a reasonable time frame was Dead Space 2.

I finally beat Dead Space 3 and Awakened.
