This may in fact be the prettiest game on the Switch!
Look at that. Here's the thing, it uses CGI cutscenes, but they use this new technology to integrate near seamlessly into the gameplay and it's very hard to tell. So what does the gameplay look like?
Looks good, framerate is pretty solid, I like it!
From what I understand, Senua is a Pict whose lover has died, so she has carried his skull to Helheim (Hell) to get him back? In the meantime, she appears to be having a psychotic break.
You run around, collecting lore and unlocking gates. Then you run into freaky enemies and get down to combat.
At first it seems simple, but it gets hard. There is actually a lot of combat depth, but they don't tell you about it. There a multiple combos with unique attacks, so play around with heavy and light hits.
I'm only a couple hours in and I am told it's a short game, so I look forward to what is in store.
