    Ok , so ive finished it finally! :D
    It turned up a nice game. The first chapters i didnt like the design choices, and i also think the loging in stuff to the marrow is pretty stupid. (basicly a loading screen where you have to login the computer twice lol).
    I would have loved to see those 'special' enemy encounters inside of buildings instead of outside which would make a more tensed game. also more jump scares would be nice.
    personally i still think Evil within 1 is more creepy when it comes to presentation and graphics. i rather have the bugs crawling on the walls then seeing those awefull rats lol and remember the spider lady from ew1 ? i totally loved that.

    My rating so far is 7/10 It could have been a 8/10 if it didnt have the bugs. I hope in a future patch they will fix these and i will play though it again. now it was just too disturbing and totally robbed the immersion from me.

    Good to hear!

    Im holding off playing this one until it has been patched a little bit because I suspect the reason I had so much trouble with the 1st one is that I tried to play it right at launch and it had some issues that really put me off.

    Looking at SteamDB, in the past 10 hours they've uploaded "tg_patch2.exe/tg_patch2.contents" and more recently, "tg_patch2.test".

    So, hopefully, we should see a patch for the game relatively soon.

    So has anybody noticed any glitches where the enemy is stuck somewhere or you just can't pass a boss due to a glitch bug?

    After finishing TEW2 I've started TEW1 and it's interesting to see all the improvements they made in the sequel, the gameplay is much improved. I'm on chapter 9 of the first game and I'm enjoying it, but it's definitely not quite as refined (only being able to bind 4 weapons/abilities is extremely annoying, for example).

    19 hours in... in Chapter 13.
    I'm really loving this one. As much as I love the first TEW (and I really, really do).... this one is such a better, more polished game. While not as tense, or "scary"... the atmosphere is still amazing. And the refinements to gameplay are great.

    Still waiting on Tango to hopefully patch up the performance some, and I have faith they will. They did great work on the first game after release, so I see that happening here as well.

    A second patch is visible on SteamDB for the game though it hasn't seen activity in a few days though this can also mean it's close to release and going through the last couple of checks and tests before it's set to the public / release branch for the game. :)

    Finally beat that guy with the gas mask and flame thrower; Sneaked up behind him once, took some shotgun shots at him, and at the end I just shot him couple of times with a pistol cause he was very close to me and was about to kill me. Haven't been playing it for couple of days, but I think i'm either in Chapter 13 or 14 now.
