God dammit where's my free shit.

P.S. Troll portraits are the least of this game's problems FFS.

it is actually p. cool so far

early game is definitely better than dead man's switch

I actually liked the start of Dead Man's Switch better. I liked that Noir vibe. Now it's just a boring conspiracy. Fights definitely not challenging on normal. Dialogue cool as always, a bit more corny, maybe.

DMS's early levels were pretty much a one-track trainride through small levels. The Kesselhaus with its 6 floors is already fucktons of incline.

So we'll get an other official codexian review ? Now, that's :incline:.

Great to see that influx of worthy front-page content lately.

(Although, I guess in a few years, Codex will be spilling 9/10 reviews like nobody's business...)

Probably because the options are

Normal
HP bloat and accuracy penalty
Moar HP bloat and miss all the fucking time
In Dead Man's Switch, Very Hard was the only difficulty option with a level playing field. All other options nerfed enemy stats.

It also wasn't "very hard."

Definitely no HP bloat in Very Hard. Once I got full auto on my assault rifle I one could one-shot almost anything.

So does this 'dlc' fix all of the issues with the original or is it just more of the same?

Not that the original wasn't unplayable - I beat it twice - but it wasted its potential.
