Every time I die in this game I am utterly shocked by it. Deaths always seem to occur when I’m at 1/4 health and thinking “Okay, I can take one more hit before I need to heal” and then five different necromorphs leap out behind crates and creep through the air-vents to try and murder me with a great deal of success. The deaths are the most visceral I have ever seen to happen to the protagonist of a video-game. The variety of way in which you are torn in half, decapitated, or pulled into oblivion rivals that of Dragon’s Lair.
