      My assumption is probably because it is too clean. The first one is grimy and gritty while the second one is tidy and clean which doesnt make it feel like the first one. The story in the first one leaves many hole in the mystery to be explored while the second seem to have feel like they are over explaining everything. Also the fate of a sequel not feeling as fresh as the first release as it only feel like a variation of the first and many distorted reality type games seems to be popular at the time.
      These are just assumption tho.

    The first game definitely has a better story, because the second is very disjointed and jumps around. BUT, I will say the second is what drew me into the series, especially because of some of the level design. Stefano’s level was something I had never seen before and I was in wonder while also being disgusted with his attitude towards murder. It reminds me of that one villain from bioshock.
    I think they’d have been better off with taking that concept further and splitting the game into levels pertaining to the minds of different people, or perhaps their trauma - I love how Sebastian’s trauma from the first game is tied in. But anyways, maybe it’d be kinda like psychonauts, with unique levels displaying the mind of each person - I don’t think this would be that hard to explain because of how stem connects everybody and the fact that everyone contributes.
    I ended up rambling a ton lmao, but I do wish the second game could be more appreciated because it does have some really strong and enticing points to it.

      The first title while having the darker story a way more flashy story with countless turning points really struggles to tell the story we are getting through. The whole stem is like a big mess where countless horrible things happen but there is not much of an explaination why they happen.
      In the evil within 2 things get a lot clearer and aren't as much of a mess. You end up with information missing but unlike with the first game I didn't really need a video comprehend what is going on in this title

      I didn't play the first one, and thought this was amazing.
      Wasn't hard to put the pieces together after they expand on the Stem story line, secret org, not hard to realise. Using an artificial conciousness of sorts despite being alive.
      Training then they use those chips to control everyone.
      No brain chip in Sebastian, so that was the way out.
      Kidman took hers out.
      He's reliving past traumas, and the game is a Metaphor, for purging his inner demons overall.
      Everyone uses his vulnerability to their advantage.
      Thats how you entered in the first place, being your daughter, and wife a cop also, trying to find out what happened.
      Fire at the start of the game, was stems way of clearing things up.
      Broadcast inside stem, to directly kill everyone else connected via chips within mobiushence the matyr of your wife.
      The mirror(safe room) is your mind, its all fragmented based on the glass shattered. Literally lines all throughout the game.
      Even the end clears a lot of things up with the purgatory, being the abyss, when you get to finishing the game.
      Pyschopaths being stefano had powers to alter the world and the priest forget his name, came in as a buisness man and played them, he wanted to control everything, while under guise that he was part of the plan.
      I mean i absolutely loved it, just finished ghostwire since i thought the devs did such a great job.
      That wasn't as good at all, had hints of stem, but its the spirit world, so not really, same sound effects, in the abyss areas etc.
      Anyway TEW 2 was amazing to be. Absolute masterpiece, stealth, ai buggy, and played on hard. Was good, and i understood that half the game was a mindfuck so pay attention.
      Literally watched vids on the second monitor and played, still understood.
      Stem + mobius = bad
      Anyway whatever think its more a problem of you rather than the player base.
      All my friends enjoy it, and liked the twists in the story / in depth look at the human pysche and it being broken down and rebuilt / tested and resolved.

It wouldn't really have made sense for Ruvik to show up, since he escaped STEM and i don't see him running back to it. What they did was probably the best they had, considering it followed up on his wife's disappearance and MOBIUS as an entity, both of which were featured in the first game, MOBIUS being more important and integrated into the story

    We need a third game with the development team of the first one! I loved the first one so much more than the second. It was way scarier. Hated the open world. And the story was better. The third one should follow Kidman and should feature Sebastian and Joseph. Myra could've been the one to reboot stem from the inside? And we need Ruvik back pleaaassseeee.

    Man i miss monsters luke Trauma, Laura, Keeper or Sadist and so on. They made you go up against the wall. Or a surprise such as the chapter 10 spinning blade with the distorted music. Its been funny yet spot on. Or when you explored the cave where the babies were and there were harpoon traps. Sure, Anima and other bosses are scary but there are fewer bosses that in the part 1 and the game is missing on so many dreadful places and caves from TEW 1. Like that octopus monster and others. It just feels too normal somehow for an environment. Dont get me wrong, i love the fact there is a city that holds endless secrets and collectibles but i would have loved if there were some ridiculous places as well, detached from reality like in TEW 1.

    I think your wrong about Julian Sykes he got out. He was lucky to be the 25% to get of stem or union. Because after you do his requests, you need to go back to his safe house. For a weapon and there was a message from him that reads: Message from Sykes
    This message seems to have been scribbled hastily on a scrap of paper:
    "Thanks for the help in here, Sebastian. You're a solid dude. I wish you the best of luck. If you manage to make it out of here, look me up. I owe you a drink in the Real World...
    Yer Pal.
    Sykes
    Besides this message pops after you did the mission. But it could be possible that he wrote it before going to the machine so there might be a chance that he could probably failed. If he was successful Myra couldn't kill him either with his chip because he did say that the first thing he wanted to do was get rid of the chip. So maybe he got out in time.

  • @AnaxErik4ever
    @AnaxErik4ever Před rokem +21

    I didn't think about it when initially listening to Manny Sherman's interviews in The Devil in Me. But when you pointed that he sees his work as "an aesthetic response to what the world shaped him into", i.e. "murder/death is artwork", it made me think immediately of fellow serial killer and "murder artist" Stefano Valentini. The original Evil Within had wonderful storytelling, even for more impatient players who didn't take the time to find and follow the "story threads" of documents about Sebastian's life, people going missing from Krimson City, experiments with STEM, and STEM victims' final records. The gameplay and graphics were clunky in places and glitchy as hell though, a common consensus from many players. Many players also complained of how Sebastian has the emoting ability of a brick wall, i.e. lack of emotional range in typical "film noir detective" fashion.
    The Evil Within 2 has the opposite sets of problems: streamlined, smooth gameplay and graphics; different actor for Sebastian, but more emotional range and drive (not a bad thing in my opinion, though some people criticize); and a story that is disjointed in places and predictable in others, such as Myra being the ultimate "villain" and Sebastian being the sole survivor of STEM like the last game. Like many players, I agree that Father Theodore and Stefano should have been swapped in terms of places on the boss roster. Valentini, being a fellow psychopath like Ruvik, held enough appeal/hit enough beats to keep fans of the original FINAL BOSS interested while breaking new ground with his artistic creativity. Plus, his voice could melt several pairs of underwear, even if the actor was not a real Italian.

    In TEW1, I assumed Tatiana was a manifestation by Leslie to help Sebastian (Leslie must have encountered plenty of nurses), but since she returns in TEW2 without Leslie, perhaps she's actually something Sebastian's unconscious brought to STEM ever since he entered it the first time, in Beacon. After all, the Warden crossbow and its Agony bolts seem to be particular to Sebastian only.

    • @emmafrost16
      @emmafrost16 Před 2 lety +4

      I always thought she was a manifestation of Sebastian's desire or something, maybe an idea of comfort and care since she lost myra but then a missing poster indicate she was also one of the victims. How she became to be, is still unexplained, it's a h weead scratcher
      Though i like harry's explanation on her reaappearance in the 2nd game. Maybe tatiana was in seb's subconscious together with the office safe haven.

      she's probably in the depths of the system after her body was disposed of when they thought she died. is it too much of a stretch to think the secret society used some of the same parts for the new version and she just transferred over? lots of people in the medical profession have had psychopathic tendencies in the past, serial killers who "took pain away" and such. but they would also have a higher tolerance to mental trauma due to the strains of their profession probably leading to a god like state (if we akin the antagonists to demon's running rampant) where she has power but like the MC's daughter it is benign aiding and protecting only or controlled by her will but less than that of the antagonists.

      No actually, in that DLC his body is never seen in the tubs, and Kidman says he is alive when you find all the projector slides and get a secret one. Maybe he's also a core?

    I’m still salty about how poorly written this game was as a sequel. The story had no connection to the first game, Sebastian changed way too much from the original, his motivation was so dumb, the antagonists were all weak and had little impact on the story, the characters were all one-dimensional, the whole story about Seb’s “guilt” made no sense and the climax sequence was really cringe.

      @sab6437 Před rokem +8

      WTH? Did we play the same game?
      TEW 2 was heavily tied to the first and its story was at least acceptable, if not good. Sebastian's motivation was as believable as can be: rescuing his daughter, which not only is critical hook on its own but it was directly related to his sense of guilt for not saving her from the house fire. Sebastian had a clear and understandable character arc from the beginning of TEW1 through the end of TEW2, if a bit cookie-cutter.
      Valentini was an excellent antagonist, as he was finally someone that wasn't bent on world domination. His method of killing and savoring it was gruesome, creepy, and novel. Admittedly Wallace was pretty forgettable.

      @@sab6437 No. It was just a terrible sequel. Most would agree that TEW2 was radically different from the first game, especially storywise. Even Sebastian was like a completely different person and the entire game felt like a poorly written fanfiction. And that’s why it flopped and got a lot of hate by the fans of the first game.

      ​@@fgih5228 No. If TEW2 is such a terrible sequel and largely hated by fans of TEW1, why does it have a 10% higher Steam score than TEW1? Same thing on Metacritic and Opencritic, for both fans and critics. Face it, you're clearly wrong about the general perception of TEW2 and in the minority.
      Also, I cannot believe one of your criticisms is that TEW2 has a different story than TEW1. Of course it does, did you want them to rehash the same thing or something 🙄? TEW2 does a great job of logically building from the foundation set by TEW1, both for the story generally and Sebastian personally.

      Yeah. I get what you’re saying. There are slight differences in the insignia design to Cedar Hill Church though. Also, the reason I didn’t include it, is that it’s pure speculation that Wallace had anything to do with the Cedar Hill Church. The Cedar Church’s beliefs were actually centered around a belief in God. Whereas the MU Centres beliefs were about the idea of Wallace being a deity himself. So not much of a connection, more of an inspiration. Or that he just stole their insignia.
