The story of "A Plague Tale: Requiem" is widely praised for its emotional depth and character development, continuing the harrowing journey of siblings Amicia and Hugo as they navigate a plague-ridden world. Many players found the narrative gripping and heart-wrenching, with themes of love, sacrifice, and resilience resonating throughout the game. However, some critiques highlight pacing issues and a sense of predictability in the plot, suggesting that while the story is compelling, it occasionally feels drawn out or less cohesive compared to its predecessor, "Innocence." Overall, the storytelling is considered one of the game's strongest elements, making it a must-play for fans of narrative-driven experiences.
“A rollercoaster of misery, hope that gets ripped out of your hands, horrific visuals, gut-wrenching plot twists, and in the middle a young girl's desperate struggle to save her younger brother from all but assured doom.”
“A Plague Tale: Requiem is a true masterpiece that stands out for its breathtaking atmosphere and storytelling.”
“The game weaves a deeply emotional story that explores love, sacrifice, and resilience in the face of overwhelming odds.”
“Beautiful environments and music, but the story is all over the place and lacks the consistency that made Plague Tale: Innocence so much better.”
“The story is trying to be more grand and the stakes higher, but it's pretty much the same game, only longer.”
“The story feels all over the place, and can't seem to decide what it wants you to take from it, and don't get me started on the cut scenes.”
