Players express disappointment with the gameplay, noting a lack of gore and the removal of certain mechanics, such as the absence of head explosions when shooting infected enemies unless specific conditions are met. The overall brutality of deaths has also diminished, impacting the game's intensity.
“I was kind of disappointed that they didn't keep the mechanics and the gore in the game. If you shoot an infected's head, it won't explode unless the Plaga comes out, and the deaths aren't brutal anymore.”
“The gameplay feels lacking compared to previous titles; the mechanics just don't have the same impact.”
“I found the combat system to be clunky and unresponsive, which made the gameplay frustrating at times.”
