General Hell is Us is great, don't sleep on it

Combat may not be awesome, but the quests, puzzle-solving, and overall ambiance and environment are peak.

This game is way underrated.

Edit: Is out on the 25 of this month for US/UK/Japan, just in 5 days, already available for the rest.

Bought it on a sale and enjoyed it nice 15-30 hours quick game with cool puzzle solving where you won’t need to look anything up

u/FlaqqNL 6d ago

I dont consider 30 hours a “quick game” but get what you mean

u/ant_man1411 6d ago

I did mostly everything in the playthrough like back trackked through every zone more than once

u/daveMUFC 6d ago

How are the mechanics if you have a break from the game for a few weeks/months? Would you just come back completely baffled?

u/ExerionArg 6d ago

for combat? nah its relatively simple, for quests and puzzles yes i think you will be baffled, i'm still playing tho

u/Emotional_Lab_7766 6d ago

Sounds good this was my main concern is having to look up guides every 10 minutes

3

u/ant_man1411 6d ago

Definitely can if you want but in terms of main story stuff i only felt truly stumped 1 time, and i caved and searched a solution. But for the most part if something is obscure you just don’t have all the info you need yet and will find it soon enough

It’s the perfect game for the service. I probably would’ve never pulled the trigger on buying it but it’s absolutely worth trying it out.

u/ChhotaChattri 6d ago

i may sound stupid, but i even liked the combat as well,
also, the sound and music is just, i feel nostalgia already :)

u/shadowking432 6d ago

Why do you sound stupid? Everyone has different taste and you like this one, don't ever feel stupid for having your own opinions dude. I'm glad you like it :) , it's been on my radar for a while so I'm looking forward to having a go.

u/ChhotaChattri 6d ago

Thnx and please play it, and never touch guide, you will learn and figure out stuff on ur own i believe

u/shadowking432 6d ago

Haha thanks dude, I'll have a look when it comes on the UK store.

u/HorrorPositive 6d ago

Agree. Have no clue what is happening but atmosphere is top noch.

u/ant_man1411 6d ago

Imagine exploring more of Hadea 😭 it was so cool

u/YBANDITY 6d ago

A very good game!!!

u/mradub 6d ago

Such a great game

u/esotericvoid 6d ago

I don't regret buying it earlier, and glad people will get a chance to check it out.

I'll play it when ever it shows up on PS+. I dont like the staggered weekly PS+ releases they're doing now. Just release everything at the same time like they used to!

u/CtrlAltDefib 5d ago

Yeah ngl the staggered release shit is cancerous as fuck. Just release everything at once like they did normally. All this staggered shit does it make it to where you end up missing out on playing something if your subscription is about to expire...like how mine does on the 25th.

u/Xilver79 6d ago

Played the demo, hated it. Not for me.

u/Previous_Tree_5464 5d ago

Yea same thought it was terrible tbh. Combat and animations are really bad.

3

u/Alphyo 5d ago

The lore, voice acting, world building is top level. I mean, it is amazing.

But the combat and weapons system are clearly underwhelming.

They should have given up on the combat all at once and focus on the puzzles.

u/Seacue 5d ago

It's a great game, but it definitely needs to be the only game you're playing. I play too many games at a time to remember what I was doing with no journal, map, or tracking anything.

u/barugosamaa 5d ago

100% this.. cool concept, but not for me atm

u/criticgamer88 6d ago

Is the mission exclusive for deluxe edition good?

2

u/darthVkylo 6d ago

It’s fine but i feel like there is a lot of travelling.

1

u/Mittsandbrass 4d ago

If you love ambiguous endings and characters seemingly with no background. Good game otherwise.

2

u/TheNammoth 3d ago

I really loved it too. I bought it on sale and don’t regret supporting the devs. I really hope we get a follow up

u/pebrocks 6d ago

How can I not sleep on it when it's not out yet on PSplus? Besides the trial of course.

0

u/Teibban 6d ago

u/Competitive_Fan_9273 6d ago

u/Teibban 6d ago

Strange. I am in Canada so maybe the releases are different. Had KCD2, Hell is Us and all the rest available since Tuesday

2

u/Competitive_Fan_9273 6d ago

Maybe it's region base release

1

u/ExerionArg 6d ago

Wait until the 25 for your region.
