A Plague Tale: Requiem (2022 Video Game)
5/10
Massive letdown compared to the first game

Warning: Spoilers
The graphics are great, but unfortunately that's all there is to it. The story is just stupid. What sane person would travel to an island to find a cure for a child's dream? Especially when your own mother already says that it won't help. Of course it doesn't and what's Amicia's next suggestion? Move to the mountains as if everything is ok. Moreover, Amicia is almost crazy, quite different from the first part. Also, unnecessary enemies are shown, some of which simply don't get an explanation, like the beekeepers at the very beginning. And it doesn't do the game any good that the areas are so big. Since you get nothing but ingredients for the various sling ammunition, it never pays to get to the boxes that are harder to reach, and that worked well with the smaller maps in the first Part. I really dont get how so many can give this such a good rating.
