#The evil within 2 series

My first playthrough was around 25 hours as in these types of games, I can get lost in completing side quests.

For the sequel, players had the option to explore their surroundings as they saw fit and you could even transition from the marrow, the underground tunnels, to other areas in Unity. Those segments were primarily due to being chased by some monster ripped straight from your nightmares.

The first entry in the series would clock in at around 20 hours but it did suffer from some pacing issues as at times it felt like you were being rushed through some areas. This one in particular featured a specter and it was a nice change of pace as you couldnвЂ™t shoot your way out of the situation. If you were unlucky or just aloof like I was in my first playthrough, you would wander into a house and immediately be thrown into a side-quest. There was a surprising amount of diversity, numerous houses, warehouses, and sheds could be entered and looted. There was enough to do in-between primary objectives because the town of Unity, while small, was dense and there was enough secrets that could keep the player entertained for hours. The Evil Within 2 transitioned from a linear experience to a non-linear one and it was all for the better. It isnвЂ™t a perfect game by any means, some of the enemy AI was pretty dumb and it didnвЂ™t feel as tense as the original, but it was an enjoyable experience nonetheless. That doesnвЂ™t mean that there wonвЂ™t be any DLC announcements in the near future, but if weвЂ™re being honest, this is the rare example of a title that does not need any add-ons. It was a strangely complete experience and one that wrapped up neatly. But after looking back at my time with The Evil Within 2, I came to the conclusion that there no DLC needed. Surprisingly, there was no announcement, which came as a shock as the first title had 3 DLCвЂ™s add-ons that were honestly unnecessary. During BethesdaвЂ™s E3 press conference, I was prepared for the inevitable DLC for The Evil Within 2, one of my favorite games of last year. It has become increasingly rare for a videogame to release with a DLC add-on or expansion.
