    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
    • “I enjoyed some of the earlier looped segments, but the portions leading up to the end of the game got tedious really quickly and the actual ending was just outright bad, with the entire final Outlast-esque section in the basement being absolute misery with no scare-factor and maybe the worst ending I've seen in a horror game in a long time.”
