    I’ve looked at buying Senua’s Sacrifice before, but watching the video with the testimonies about how seen people with mental health struggles felt playing makes it worth it on that merit alone - if it does such a good job portraying psychotic difficulties.

      I think I’ll pick it up at that price.

      I had no idea what this was about. But after your comment my interest was peaked. In my region it is like $1.50 only. So it was a pretty easy decision.

        Yup - bought it for just a couple of £.

        On balance reviews praise the story, sound, and visual design with some criticism of the gameplay mechanics - but it sounds like the gameplay mechanics aren’t really there to be the meat, but more the vehicle for delivery of everything else.

          Yeah, and it was just $1.50. I just spent $10 on a pizza. So, unless it crashes upon launch I don’t think I’ll complain.
