This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as I loved the art style the series is going for with its realistic yet dark and mysterious towns.

15 of 235 sampled reviews raised it
Visuals and sound design are excellent again, creating a beautifully tense experience together.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
11 of 235 sampled reviews raised it
Overall, it's only medium difficulty and pretty accessible/intuitive with controls, and though it may not be really horrifying, the jumpscares are unsettling without being cheap.
