As a big fan of the original games, this remake stays true to the original while introducing updated graphics and mechanics. Stunning visuals and top notch sound design. While the gameplay isn't anything mind-blowing, it feels refreshing enough to keep you going An absolute masterpiece that does justice to a horror classic.

OG SH2 is one of my favorite games of all time and I must say Bloober knocked it out of the park with this remake. OGSH2 was stressful because of the atmosphere of dread and the idea that something terrible could happen at any moment, but the actual gameplay was on the easy side. This remake not only recaptures everything great about the OG in terms of its art direction, sound design, voice acting etc., but it actually makes SH2 scary again for those of us who already know what's going to happen. The combat is really good and tense and it keeps you on your toes even on standard difficulty. Last night I got out of the hospital and managed to get to the wrench and honestly that journey really took something out of me. I was left feeling exhausted and slightly traumatized in the best possible way. Congrats to Bloober for having recaptured lightning in a bottle in a way that is at once respectful of the past while also reinvigorating. I am so looking forward to SH3 remake.

First impressions are awesome. Run -dx11 in the launch options for an immense fps boost and graphic fixes. Went from 50-60fps 1440p DLSSQ to 60-75fps 1440p native EDIT for the ppl that have reached out to me: the blackscreen is normal when you swap to -dx11, it took a while on my system as well, no idea why, I'd assume shader-compilation takes longer in dx11? And my specs are: 7800X3D 3070 OC 32GB DDR5 5600Mhz M.2 SSD

The atmosphere and sound design is the best I've ever seen. The game becomes so tense in some areas i feel i have to take break or my heart will stop! my personal GOTY 2024.

Was apprehensive about this from the trailers, but I was pleasantly shocked. It's so much better than I thought it would be. It's not perfect, but it's enough to make an OG SH fan like me very happy. Enemies look awesome (I'm looking at you, Abstract Daddy), and the atmosphere is great Harry Mason, when?? we need more remakes like this. Kudos, Bloober
