It may not be the best Dead Space But i still find myself coming back to this game i personally think its an Enjoyable experience If there's one thing i personally really like about Dead Space 3 it would certainly be the additions to the Lore: The end of the Marker/Necromorph Life Cycle Tau Volantis itself is just really fascinating to me whether it be The Alien Architecture and the Abandoned S.C.A.F Outposts Early Game on harder difficulties might be a bit of a challenge due to the Necromorphs being more Balanced for the Op weapons you can make (Due to being able to spend money to get in game materials, i don't think you can spend money anymore but idk) So most Slashers and Leapers run at Mach 10 speed and hit hard. You should get a pretty good pair of weapons by the time you are at least a quarter way through the game as there's a few ways to get materials easier, that being Side Quests and Scavenger bots that you can place at certain areas Im not very good at writing Reviews but if you did take the time to read this Tysm :)

Dead Space 3 , the black sheep of the series. I consider Dead Space 2 to be the best horror game ever, and then EA put a gun to the poor developers' heads and forced them to make something they didn’t want. Instead of getting a game that could have been even better than the previous one, diving deeper into Isaac Clarke's psychological state and offering us psychological horror, we get a silly love triangle and a cooperative military shooter. The game isn't bad on its own, it's a good sci-fi, I had fun, and the DLC Awakened finishes the trilogy in an unexpected and brutal way. I would also add that Dead Space 3 has a memorable soundtrack, the best in the series. From the moment you enter the game, the theme song plays in the main menu. 3/5

Any game that you have to make excuses for almost cannot be good. Dead Space 3 is infamous for how botched it is. EA forced the devs to include co-op and all kinds of new mechanics to milk for DLC. I began playing it with an almost grim determination - simply to see through a series that I loved the first and second installment of. And it's true; the first few hours were dire. I didn't understand the weird new mechanics. They were just as tacked on as I'd heard. But I kept on playing. I just decided to ignore all the new stuff; just focusing on the weapons and suit features that I was familiar with from the earlier games. And you know what? A couple of hours later I discovered that I was having a great time. Underneath all the gunk is a game every bit as good as Dead Space 2. Just take my advice: don't mess around trying to get the best weapon possible. Don't look online for other people's builds. Save that for a possible second playthrough - when you understand the mechanics and don't feel that you're wasting resources. If you focus on the stuff carried over from Dead Space 2 the game is rock-solid. It's balanced and exciting. The devs must have realized this. They even included a 'classic mode' that you unlock upon game completion, that will allow you to play the game again but only with the classic weapons. Dead Space 3 is worth your time. Ignore all the shiny, glittery crap EA slapped on it and you'll have a blast.

✅I liked all the Dead Space games but Dead Space 3 the least because in this game it was more like a shooter than a horror game. ✅ Interesting storyline about alien artifacts ✅ Brutal and unpredictable fights with monsters ✅ Dead end situations that increase adrenaline levels ✅ Interesting and nicely outlined additional characters ✅ Possibility to craft unique weapons and equipment ✅ Lots of hidden places and items to collect ✅ Beautiful graphics and wonderful space locations ✅ Easy to master character controls ✅ Frustrating QTE cutscenes ✅ Great looking armor and helmets ✅ Possibility to expand the game with DLC add-ons ✅ Co-op mode that allows you to play together with a friend ✅ NG+ mode that allows you to keep your previous equipment ➖Starting the game requires creating an EA account ➖ And also installing their crappy launcher ➖ Vertical synchronization limits the number of FPS to 30 ➖Objects and enemy bodies intersecting each other ➖ Occasional jams of some mechanisms ➖ Poor spatial visibility due to low FOV Dead Space 3 Awakened ✅Plot. This is a great but sad ending to the plot of Dead Space 3, which left us with questions. Although even after this adventure it is still not known what happened! ✅Continuation. It is a plus for me that we do not have to start from scratch or with limited equipment! We have everything we achieved in the main part! ✅Narrative. I really liked the way the chaos around us is shown! Visions and voices! Hallucinations that sometimes give you the creeps!
