The Evil Within Reviews

10/10 The characters' premise fits my needs of perspective. This might not mean anything, and I apologize if this isn't misleading. I don't leave bad reviews, all efforts are a perfect score.

One of the best survival horror games, if not the best one I've ever played (aside from optimization issues), I'm eternally grateful to my friend for showing it to me.

Honestly one of the best horror games, being similar to silent hill in a psychological way, but closer to resident evil in the gameplay, also the graphics are top notch for it's time, would recommend it..even over it's sequel!

Well written psychological story with added horror element gives us a great experience, the graphics feels like playing a old game other than that its a great game

Good mix of RE4 gameplay and Silent Hill atmosphere, puts you in challenging situations, very fun!

Overall Rating: 8/10. I want to start by saying that if I played on console, I would probably rate it higher. The story is absolutely amazing. There is PLENTY of gameplay. It's super scary, with a very Resident Evil meets Silent Hill vibes. The game is challenging and the chapters and boss fights are all amazing and get better and better as the game progresses. However, the game is not optimized for PC and there are quite a few gameplay bugs that make it a bit frustrating to play, especially if you are into readying the pieces of lore you find around (do not move your mouse at all while clicking in and gently move the scroll wheel to scroll or the page will lock in place). I also had to deduct a point because of the drastic difference in the modes. The easier mode is abundant with resources, while the next mode up resources are extremely lacking and I quite often found myself struggling because of it. Also a bit more inventory for ammo would be nice. Overall though amazing game that I highly recommend, especially if you are able to play it on controller!

Pretty good so far I've really enjoyed the executions and in general the executioner dlc I've swept the first, second and basement floor and I the infinite fights are pretty fun though I wish they would last longer. I enjoy the main story but I got stuck at a mansion where the main boss is chasing me and I just can't seem to find the solution? I think I should give it more time to figure out what to do in there but aside from that this game is pretty great. It's also discounted here and there so that's a + oh and the dlc is fun! 8.5/10 the load screen is kinda loud and hurts my ears

it have some problem when you play it for the first time and also i wasnt able to play on full screen but story was really nice i enjoyed it

I don't like the story or the way it's paced/constructed at all. Usually, that would be a significant aspect of how much I enjoy a story-driven game as a whole. Yet, I found myself enjoying the gameplay and combat so much, that this has been one of my greatest experiences with a survival horror game. Every repeat playthrough was still as fun as the last. Sure, not every part of the game is a banger, but there are some bosses here and some level designs that I greatly enjoyed. Unfortunately, the greatest let-down in this regard is the final boss who is just a sequence of scripted events. There are many ways in which you can die, including some pretty silly traps. I can see that this would be frustrating for many people who'd call it cheap. However, I respect the game for throwing those things against you very early on. I'm currently in the middle of playing the highest difficulty in which you instantly die in one hit. I've already died a lot, and while it's been frustrating here and then, trying to figure out how to come out of various scenarios unscathed has been fun in its own way.

bought the game and tried playing it. 1.on first launch it flickered both my monitors and didnt let me out. had to press alt f4 multiple times no luck. ctrl+alt+delete open task manager worked. 2. switched to windowed mode. the Audio didnt work at all through my headset. when i pressed play the audio starting playing from my phone, which is a first thats ever happened. 3. Its the evil within the game thats spooky causing my phone to play audio for my pc (this game specifically), flickering on launch (fullscreen). and cannot go above 1080p (windowed)
