The accents are embellished. Senua is OK I guess but the voice does not suit the kind of woman she is made out to be so it felt consistently out of place.

Everyone else was either screaming or trying too hard to put emphasis when it was not needed. Especially the narrator of runes and Druth (which I think is the same person) were horrible so much so that I played half the game without my headphones on and just read some subtitles as I went along the way.

Honestly, don't waste your money. It will be in some rando humble bundle so pick it up then.
 
You can already pick it up for like $20. It's never been AAA priced. Personally, I enjoyed it more than many games I bought for $50. But, I was hungry for something different and enjoyed the environment and story. I can definitely see why some would want a different experience. But, it worked for me.
 
I'm siding with KAC more than the others on this one. The game just wasn't good.

Combat element is fun/gratifying when easy, but difficulty only came when you had minimal control. Nothing more frustrating than trying to get away from the sword behind you, but the game forces your character to react to the sword in front of you, only pushing you into the damage you want to avoid.

It's worth watching a YouTube Lets Play, but not much more. I think I said that earlier...
 
I thought I was nervous giving a book report in front of the class.
She states this but I could see her hands trembling.
Got a lot of balls to get up in front of everyone for a speech.

I have the game but have not played it yet.

Good for her. Watching the documentary footage (back when I played the game), it's very apparent she puts absolutely every ounce of strength she has into the character, and it works. I'm annoyed at the 'using a phone to read notes' thing, but that's probably because I'm not a millennial.

And for those who have not bought it, this game is perfect for gamepass, since microsoft owns ninja theory.
