This is what a remake should be- just like the resident evil remakes, Faithful retreading, with new additions for returning players and respect for the original.

this is a better version of dead space 1, in every way. This is the definitive dead space experience.

now dead space 2 when?

creepy cute aesthetic, fun roguelike elements and a fun enough city management section. recommend.

I really enjoyed this game. Seriously, some of the best narrative work I have experienced in a really long time.
Each of the characters have their own definate personality, and thankfully don't follow the common cliches.
the soundwork is pretty great too - I was really suprised to see someone who worked on KOTOR accredited to the music.

I'm genuinely facinated by the world of consortium; I really want to experience it more! Unfortunately the 2nd game won't be along for a while, and the wait is gpoing to be painful - there is so much stuff that is referenced in passing, which I hope is expanded on in the planned next 2 games.

There are bugs, yes, but at time of writing, the game had only been out for less than a day for general release - I personally did not experience any crashes, but a word to the wise.
Enable dev console, and get used to load autosave01.

also manually save. a lot.

overall, CONSORTIUM is well worth your money and time.

A very fun game, brutal difficulty (at least starting out) means there is quite a sharp difficulty curve, but that shouldnt dissuade you from buying the game.

4/5
