Hellblade II: Senua’s Saga

While it does have satisfying combat and puzzle solving, everything it has serves the narrative.

It continues the first game's legacy of beautiful visuals, outstanding voice acting and audio work, and wonderful storytelling with just enough ambiguity sown to make you question what's "actually" going on and wonder how much of what you're experiencing is "actually" real, and how much of it is only real to Senua.

I personally feel like the Deck looks and runs this game a little better if you switch it to "TSR" because that one allows you to enable dynamic resolution as well as a target framerate so that the game will adjust its resolution in real time during gameplay to try and hold onto that 30fps lock.

Sound design is also some of the best in the industry, but I think that should have become clear in my section about headphones.

To its benefit, the game gives a lot of control over difficulty to the player.

I appreciated there is no HUD at all, but all feels very natural and ituitive and al lot more immersive: that is a perfect choice for a game like this in my opinion.
