A Plague Tale: Requiem is an action-adventure game similar to its predecessor. The player assumes control of Amicia and must face against both soldiers from the French Inquisition and hordes of rats that are spreading the black plague.

I don't recall the first one being as frustrating and difficult...!
That is all.

Let me preface by saying, I only played 1/6th of the game, and then watched the rest, for reasons I will get into below.

Let me preface by saying, I only played 1/6th of the game, and then watched the rest, for reasons I will get into below. I played Plague Tale 1 almost 6 years (!!) before this one which is crazy to think about, but through that time I did remember a decent amount of the plot (and I watched a recap too). To start with what I like, the environment and sound design of the game were fantastic, the landscapes and booming music were really cool and well done. I also think two of the main characters that join the crew were also pretty cool. Outside of that, I don't think the game was bad in any aspect, but I didn't really find it great in other aspects.
To first start with the gameplay, it's fine, but it's just too simplistic. The stealth sections and the puzzles aren't bad, but I just don't find them that great. Outside of that, the combat (only in like combat only sections, I don't mean in like stealth sections where you got to kill a guy) just feels kind of janky, and in general the game feels like it's lacking a slight bit of polish, not sure how to explain it. The running, animations, and the like very boring pushing cart or holding a button events just don't feel all the way good.
Overall, I kind of mixed things I felt while playing and from while I was watching the rest of the game on YT, but I honestly felt while watching that I wasn't missing that much just because of how slow and meh the gameplay was looking. I don't think this was a bad game though, I think in the end for me it is like a high 6/10.

Endured the entire slogfest. The bar for self-respect has never been lower...

I don't want to experience this game again. Both the games stopped me from consuming anything for entertainment for a week. That's how sad I felt after finishing the duology.
That being said, I am not good enough with words to do this game justice. So, here are a few lines from Robert Frost for the siblings, especially King Hugo: …

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief. So, dawn goes down today. Nothing gold can stay.

Just finished chapter 4 of A Plague Tale: Requiem. I think I’ll see it to the end, but I find the stealth/combat and puzzles frustrating. I don’t remember being this frustrated with the first one, but it’s been a while since I played it. The graphics are nice and the story is okay so I’ll keep at it.

I want an explanation for knives being single use items.

As weird as Arnaud's integration into the story is, he does shake up the gameplay in an interesting way.
