4.5/5 ★ – Luitenant_Gruber's review of Dead Effect 2.

Fun game with hours of fun and content! I really enjoyed Dead Effect 2. It is a Indie Horror FPS with one goal: Shoot the living crap out of zombies. It is simple and sometimes a little bit repetitive but for me, totally worth it. The graphics are fair, the sound effects are really nice and the gore effects are cool. The story is surprisingly good in my opinion and I enjoyed every mission. The gear system with implants, armors and weapons is also really well done. Sure, there are some flaws in my opinion, like the unskippable cut scenes (which was a hell in the begin missions when you need to do them over and over again), Many times you are asked to kill 30 bosses while the levels do not have more than 3 bosses max. Also the grinding for parts to make the ultimate weapons is a painful grind. But with some tactics (choose a level with many lockers right at the start) it was manageable. The interface can be a little annoying sometimes but not that big of a deal. For me, the most fun i had with this game was not the story or Danette's detailed rack, it was the challenge of fully complete it and unlocking al the 220 achievements. This meant hours and hours of grinding, repeating and trying, but when you complete it, you reflect on all that time and feel satisfied. I am the kind of person that does not mind playing the same level twenty million times just to unlock one achievement. The DLC features the third part of the story line, a new playable character and some news skills and weapons, nothing special but for the story it was worth it. Also, i needed it to unlock the rest of the achievements. So in short, great Indie shooter with hours and hours of content in many different modes and challenges. I recommend it when you have some hours to spend!
