Is Dead Space 3 An UNDERRATED GEM?

  • Now that all that fuss is over and the smoke has finally cleared out, Dead Space 3 actually is a good experience - one that smartly trades the franchise's survival horror roots for some high-stakes action, but makes sure that you put enough effort into a sense of power fantasy with upgraded weapons and abilities.
    The co-op and new game-plus modes are also great ways of re-experiencing the game from a fresh perspective. Sure, it's nothing that will blow you away - and it's by no means an underrated gem (a 78 score on Metacritic seems just for the kind of experience that it offers).

    People forget about character development. In the first Dead Space game, Isaac Clarke gets literally thrown into a terrifying situation and perseveres by making use of makeshift weapons, but by the third game he actually KNOWS (as do the players) how to kill these things and is given better weapons (actual weapons) to fight them off. So of course it's not gonna have the same fear factor it had in the first game. Isaac goes from scared and confused to a badass. So the tone of the game is gonna reflect that change. Definitely underrated, but overall one of my favorite trilogies. Best comparison I can give is the character development for Ripley in Alien Vs. Ripley in Aliens.

    I didn’t play it until last year when I saw it was bumped to 60 fps on XBox. Had heard the hate but honestly I had a great time in that game. It hits the tension and horror the previous games did, it’s just longer so yah there are a bunch of action segments and set piece moments as well. Game holds up with the other 2. This happens a lot with new releases though. People dogpile and it’s only years later we realize the game wasn’t as bad as the reputation it got at launch, mostly by people who never played the game in the first place.

      The actual game itself isn’t bad, it’s the juvenile writing that really hurts the game as a whole, mainly in the goofy love triangle with Norton Ellie and issac, and how cartoonishly evil the main bad guy is doesn’t help either.
      The game also has awful combat pacing, you’re just constantly having to deal with way more enemies than you can realistically handle by yourself but I imagine that’s because it’s meant to be played in co-op.
      The overarching story is pretty cool, but a lot of the character moments fall really short and some of it doesn’t feel earned, it definitely has its moments but there’s a lot of aspects that fall short which is much more noticeable considering the previous 2 were basically air-tight in their writing.

    I personally believe that DS3 got way more hate than it deserved. Yes, its the weakest in the series. Yes, it has numerous flaws. But it also has many good things that the haters always conveniently ignore. DS3 has one of the best sections in the entire series when it allows the player to explore a graveyard of derelict spaceships in any order. I also like being able to customize weapons. I totally get some of the complaints, but what annoys me so much is how people focus only on the negatives while completely ignoring the positives.

    • @Steel-101
      @Steel-101 Před rokem +2

      Dude I fully agree! Every time I see a review of DS3, they keep on ignoring every single positive of the game. They focused way too much on saying “there’s more shooting and the love triangle is annoying”. Yeah the love triangle was annoying but it doesn’t overwhelm the entire story. Exploring the military ruins in space, the snow planet, and the ancient underground city was awesome. I am REALLY mad at EA for shutting down Visceral but at the same time I also blame the overcritical attitude of the fan base.

    The main problem with Dead Space 3 is the artificial difficulty. It is not that the enemies are hard to kill, but that there are a lot of them and you end up without ammo. You can't advance 20 meters without having an encounter with an enemy. Together with the farming system that does not allow you to craft ammo and medkits that frecuently because resources are really scarse. Not even in the previous games it was like that.

    I wouldn't call it a gem but it had some really good ideas. The weapon crafting/customization opinions were so much fun. I made a rocket launcher that had both unlimited ammo(didn't have to reload but it wouldn't refill mag to full when emptied) and dealt no splash damage so I wouldn't kill myself by mistake when using it. Which sounds broken.. because it was. I literally laughed because encounters would end so fast even on max difficulty.

I liked Dead Space 2 but didn't like that a lot of that area's look the same which wasn't the case with Dead Space 3. I really hope EAmotive Studios gets the green light on making the last two games followed by a new entry with Dead Space 4..let's hope all the Dead Space Fans new & old show up on release day to show EA that the Dead Space franchise isn't Dead yet.......

    Dead Space 3 limited your weapons to only 2 slots, which is a definite downgrade from the 2 previous that let you carry 4 weapons and allowed for experimentation.
    It introduced crafting and upgrade mechanics (trying to make up for the 2 weapon slot limitation but it's mainly not too interesting or isn't well fleshed out, it gets the job done if you invest in it though).
    It introduced ressources and scavenging mechanics (scavenger bots became an addiction for me).
    It introduced snow environments and regular soldier fights (again, trying to broaden the scope and invite commercial play for the market back in 2013).
    Grpahics are REALLY GOOD, but there are low quality textures if you look too close.
    The story continued quite interestingly and by the end I felt accomplished and respectful for the trilogy.
    The gameplay is faster but isn't "punchier" like DS1 and 2 (it feels like it needs more impact and punch to it, you never feel like a walking obliterator).
    It's much longer than 1 and 2, but there are some grinding and patted out sections.
    Enemies are less intimidating and more annoying than scary (they tend to backstab more times than you think and you'll start to get annoyed over and over).
    It's not as linear as DS2, it's actually more open like DS1 (on a bigger scale) but more focused and with purpose in some setpieces and no gameplay annoyances (generally speaking).
    Optional objectives and introduced as well.
    New puzzle solving mechanics are introduced and are generally okay and not too intrusive (except for the electricity balance manager, I hated it).
    New enemy types are introduced and they're generally....okay-ish.
    I liked it, really I did and I like this trilogy as a whole experience.
    Each game has defining traits that are different from the other while all 3 stick to the same essence which is the fight against the necromorphs, and I admire that. Definitely worth a play!

Also even though it was made by somebody who worked on the original dead space, it’s completely obvious that it’s not gonna be the exact same thing.

    I just played it on hard difficulty, and I wouldn't say it's under rated, the main problem is way way too many enemies, it becomes quite a chore to do so much fighting every single room, there is no suspense, that with the cluttered loot and gun upgrade system and the bad ending , it's still very fun, but it's clear why it's a downgrade from 1 and 2

      The thing is I get the feeling that EA saw Resident evil 5 massive success and saw the Co-op and went to visceral and said “DO THAT” it is a VERY fun game to play with a buddy but when solo it’s between Ok and good

    • @Zaxbox

      This game is more of an action shooter than survival horror. Using upgraded weapons helps a lot in handling the multitude of enemies as well as the usual stasis/limb cutting technics. It also helps to use the environment or room layouts in some chapters. You figure it out as you go.

    Graphics were a bit choppy but I liked the game a lot. The zero G scenes were incredible. The biggest problem was that the ending was DLC, and that DLC was awesome.

  • @RoyStantz
    @RoyStantz Před rokem +1

    IMHO I do feel that Isaac's personal journey had wrapped up by the end of the second game, so by the time we got to the third one, it was like "Well, what's left to do with the character? Why, put him in a daytime soap love storyline, of course!" I mean, at this stage, he's been through everything else.
    Also, I kind of like the idea of discovering the secret origin of the Markers, and it kind of brings the Marker storyline from the previous games to a full circle.
    So, is Dead Space 3 a downgrade from its predecessors? Yes, sadly it is, but that in no way makes it a terrible game; it's not the best entry in the franchise, but it's still very playable.

    most reviews gave it high 7s and 8s. And it's on a 7.8 on metacritic which is pretty good, HOWEVER...in recent years the consensus or perception has definitely changed. I keep seeing games journalists trash it, just today while watching a podcast containing a Calisto Protocol review one of the journalists rolled his eyes and made a snide remark about how bad DS3 is, I watched a list of "most disappointing sequels" and I think DS3 was number one! I keep seeing this strange retconning. Realistically it was a good sequel with a good Co op mode. More of the same, a little to focused on action perhaps. But still very good. Underrated at launch? No. Underrated now? Probably.

    I love the trilogy for having a nice spectrum starting with horror in the beginning and ending with action. It's a shame that all I see is hate and nothing good about 3 that potentially keeps action horror fans away. Also sad that the series didn't wrap up all neat and tidy with 3 because of that damn cliffhanger ending.

  • @intergalactickoala665

    The best word to describe Dead Space 3, for me, is "frustrating", because there is a phenomenal game buried in it's DNA. There are moments when it nearly creeps to the surface, but whether it's the poor writing of the characters, the unsatisfying changes to combat, the OP guns, etc. it always fails to do so. I actually enjoy the game - now that years have passed and my bitterness has waned - but I can't help but be frustrated when thinking on what could have been, and the fact that this was Visceral's last entry in the franchise, which had been stellar up to this point (at least with mainline entries).

    Great game, really pushed the limits of those consoles. First one was a short contained sci fi survival horror, the second was an expansive sci fi action horror and the third was an epic co-op sci fi action thriller. They all go together really well back to back.

    As with any trilogy you must try and view the entire body of work as one big story - one with a beginning (Dead Space) a middle (Dead Space 2) and an end (Dead Space 3).
    If you look at it like that then, i believe, it stands up.
    Perhaps, the third game isn't the best of the three, but it serves its purpose.

    I loved DS3 just as much as the other 2. As someone else here in the comments mentioned already, I love all 3 of them for different reasons. The best thing about 3 was the change of environment, I loved the desolate snowy planet and the parts where you were floating around above the space station. The beginning was such a departure, having combat with human enemies and I absolutely loved discovering about the alien race. The hybrid weapon crafting was really cool also although I have to say the guns feel much less powerful in 3, less impactful and satisfying to use. Other than that, stands up easily with the other 2, I think a lot of people just hate any kind of change and won't give things a chance.

    while it kinda ruined the franchise, I still think its a really good game.

A few more scares would make it better, but still I'm glad I bought it

  • @ryublade8184

    Honestly, 3 is the only good Dead Space game. Played this masterpeice first and loved it. Tried to go back and play the first game and it was garbage. Second game looks just as bad. Dead space 3 was and still is the best space based survival horror video game of all time, second is probably alien isolation. Played 3 on the highest difficulty and it was crazy hard but beautiful to play and survive through it. Dead Space 3 is a 10/10 experience to this day.

      I disagree that DS2 is just as bad as DS1, but I agree that DS1 is the worst one. Personally (not critically) I do think DS3 is the best one overall. If some new features like Optional Missions were in DS2, it would win. But DS3 has it all, the longest campaign +1 DLC, more weapon variety (through a boring crafting system though) and more interesting level design and graphics. DS2 runs smoother though, but the ridiculous Mouse Smoothing in the first two games ruin the whole thing. Now, critically, I'd have to say DS2 is the best one, coz if it had the aforementioned features, it would be a 11/10 game.

    For all its problems, I did like the story in Dead Space 3, it wraps up the mysteries behind the necromorphs and the Markers in a neat way. If you don't count the DLC, which was a big cliffhanger, it was also a great send-off to Isaac after everything he's been through. Isaac goes from a nobody to a traumatized survivor to finally a hero.

    Turning Dead Space 3 into an action game is a bad mistake that EA has ever done. They’re some very good concept in which Isaac deals with his split personality and it’s gonna be a survival horror co-op between him and his alter ego,but what we got is a soldier named Carter.
