>>7226617583 messed up the foundation too much with universal ammo, custom weapons, and cover shooter segments. Barring a few minor things like zero gravity, 1 and 2 play identically, so it's easy to love both games.
>>722661758Dead Space 2 was shit that focused on overly spectacularUncharted-like action scenes instead of being a great horror game like the original was
>>722663276The game isn’t scary after the first couple of jump scares though, it’s always kinda been an action/horror game
>>722661758it's not a legacy franchise. it got a quick trilogy within one gen and got put on ice once it received a shit installment. big sprawling legacy franchises that cover multiple generations and switch up their gameplay to keep up with trends are hotbeds for obnoxious fandom. because you always have subdivisions of the fandom that infight over when the series was at its best. Dead Space is also nowhere near as popular as your other examples and we all know a smaller dedicated following is king.
>>7226617581 sucks though. I love the environments but the enemies always felt more annoying than scary and the story is whatever.
>>722661758>>half life 1 was great but half life 2 and the episodes aren’t as good and gaben is a hack”I mean, where’s the lie in that? It’s true.
1 > 3 > 2
