A Plague Tale: Innocence (2019)

Woo, another game off the backlog. I liked most of this game, but found the last chapter a bit frustrating as the controls aren’t particularly tight when you suddenly have to deal with 4 guards. And when you need to deal with the spell “pillar of rat” it’s even worse. I bet a full hour of my 12 hours of playthrough was devoted to trying to counter spell pillar of rat, but I was always out of mana.

A lot to like about the original game - did the sequel get performance tuned to where it was worth getting, or did it lack in other areas in ways that were less fixable?
