The Evil Within 2 (2017) Review & Discussion - Silent Evil Podcast 20 - Survival Horror Gaming

Spencer and Cameron start off the new year of survival horror gaming with the continuation of The Evil Within. This time in part 2, Sebastion continues his struggle with alcohol, loses his job, and seems like he's lost his mind from the incident. But Kidman finds him in his endless search for truth and tells him that guess what, your daughters not dead and we need you to go back in the Stem Machine at Mobius for another Matrix like adventure of horror. This game really takes The Evil Within and dials the whole experience into an almost pure perfect journey. Keeping that excellent blend of the best of Resident Evil and Silent Hill in full effect. Everything is firing on all cylinders with the controls, upgrade system, monsters and villains, graphics and storytelling. Gone are the goofy one hit kill sections and for the brief moments there are, you got a save right beforehand. And you even get to take out that jabroni chainsaw guy from the start of the first one too. So much good times here. So, we just went through a run and discuss out the whole experience in the podcast. And there is a lot of greatness here. Just too bad Shinji Mikami doesn't have an Evil Within 3 anytime soon to follow up on how damn perfect this game nailed it. This could be the best modern era horror game. So hopefully, in the long run, there can be more. I think Judi Kidman should be the hero of part 3. Just saying. So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next. The Silent Evil Podcast S.T.A.R.S. Spencer Scott Holmes and Cameron Curbelo.
