Like with Severed, I was able to beat Awakened in a single sitting of about an hour and fifteen minutes. The atmosphere in this DLC is amazing, which ultimately left me thinking “where was all this during the main game?”Ī big downfall is the length. It’s a shame they missed out in the main game (at least from the perspective of Isaac.)Īwakened definitely has a creepier, more morbid feel to it, and jump scares are way more present here. In fact, these hallucination moments are the best parts of possibly Dead Space 3 as a whole.
It’s odd that they see the exact same hallucinations, but the hallucinations were one of my favorite things about DS2, so I’m glad they’ve made a return. Isaac and Carver are now sharing hallucinations and are both quite confused. The story told in Awakened picks up right after the end of the main game. It also makes sense in the story to actually back track like this, which Severed had no reason to be doing so within it’s story. Because of the redesign, I wasn’t so distraught about going through the same area again, though it was itching in the back of my head. Thankfully though, this time they redecorated the levels enough to actually give off their appearance that it’s somewhere new. As with Severed, it comes off as very lazy on the development teams part. While we could be exploring some new area in the Dead Space Universe, we’re instead treated to the same locations we just ran through. Except this time it’s much better.īy “copy-and-paste job” I mean they use some of the exact same levels as in the main game, but you run through them backwards. Oddly enough, Visceral didn’t learn the first time because, Awakened does the same thing. I complained about the short length, and the backtracking/copy-and-paste job on the level design.
Not long ago I reviewed the Dead Space 2 DLC, “Severed”. Mini Review - Dead Space 3: Awakened (DLC) - The Cherry on Top
