I was really mad at DS3 being just another shooter, after enjoying good mix in second game and nice horror in the original. I was really positively suprised about them expanding the universe in the third game and adding more to the necromorphs, especially in the dlc.

I think it's a solid series if you like survival horrors with decent plot and intrigue (here: origin and goal of necromorphs to become Brethren Moon).
If you still didn't play it, don't watch any DS3 related videos if possible.

1 was good. 2 is decent, I don't really understand why people think it's equal with 1. I really didn't enjoy 3's demo and don't have any interest in playing it.

1 is good, but flawed. 2 is RE4 of last gen. 3 is OK with decent coop.

I liked them all, though 3 got fucked to near death by EA.

1 is pretty fucking good. 2 takes a more action oriented aproach but blends in a good amount of horror to the mix. 3 goes nose first into the TPS pie, losing a lot of what made the first 2 games good. It's decent in its own right (aside from the final parts of the game) for a TPS but a shitshow of a horror game. WAY too much ammo and health everywhere in the game.
>>
Dead Space 1 is pretty fantastic.
Dead Space 2 is a more linear, action-oriented experience, but still very much worth your time.
Dead Space 3 is fucking trash.

I kinda like to equate it to the ALIEN movies.

>Dead Space / Alien
pretty damned good and a fresh idea at the time. Just the right amount of spooks, atmosphere and surprises.

>Dead Space 2 / Aliens
more action packed, less spooks. Still a fun experience, but not as concerned with the horror aspect as the first installment was.

>Dead Space Extraction / Alien3
A bit of a departure from the last two installments, but does come back to the original idea a little bit. Not all the way to be totally satisfying, but it's still enjoyable in it's own right.

>Dead Space 3 / Alien Resurrection
You can argue that there's still fun to be had, but by this point it's heavily apparent that they've gone a different direction and will continue to do so, and not for the better. Longtime fans were disappointed, newcomers were confused, it made the lead character much harder to like, and the twist in the end introduced a really dumb sci-fi concept that just illustrates how far down the series has gone.

I liked the space part in DS3 but it went massively downhill when you touch the planet. It was a bland ass action game from the start tho. That moon was just retarded.
>>
1 and 2 are decent shooters, both poor horror games. Even DS1 isn't scary because whenever you look at an enemy they always go "garblarghle" while someone tears apart a violin in the background, it's almost comical.
3 is shit thanks to mind-numbingly repetitive encounters where the same enemy waves spawn over and over again in the same room. Not to mention the copy-paste room co-op missions.

Its the Aliens/Terminator of videogames.

First is excellent.
Second is also excellent, but different and more action oriented. Still great, and many consider it the best.
Third is a garbage fire that should have never happened.

THANK GOD THEY NEVER MADE ANY MORE ALIEN/TERMINATOR MOVIES AFTER THAT.

>>343900973
Not the same guy, but one of the developers leaked a brief outline of what the original plot was before being changed for whatever reason. Paraphrased, it was supposed to be like this.


>Isaac returns to earth after being captured by Earthgov
>During questioning the Unitologists start a necromorph outbreak on earth
>While escaping Isaac runs into a high ranking earthgov official who tells Isaac that a brethren moon has been spotted on it's way to Earth
>He then tells Isaac that they have been developing a way to sever the Necromorph hive Mind and as a result would leave them defenseless and unorganized
>only way to complete the weapon is to find the original Marker that Altman sunk in the Atlantic ocean
>Deep Sea necromorphs


That's the gist of it

1 is really good, a bit clunky combat wise but more than playable and has the biggest focus on horror.

2 is excellent and makes the gameplay much more fluid, but /v/ probably hates that because anything that isn't a slow, plodding gameplay that gets in the way is somehow bad to them. It has some awesome segments that ramp up the tension (going back to the Ishimura) but the story is a little fanfic tier at times.

Good thing the series ended there, I would hate to see it turned into a third person cowaduty with necromorphs where you can just craft whatever ammo you need ad nauseam until the end of the game.

DS3 is overall a weak game and a huge letdown, but I'll be positive and mention some good things.

Ripper, Plasma Cutter, and the Line Gun are what I used for 99% of the first game. The plasma rifle was nice for the final boss. The Ripper is so satisfying when you line up a conveyor belt of necromorphs.

I played 2 a few weeks ago, didn't finish 1. My main gripe with 2 is just how weak the horror bits are - the Ishimura was the spookiest part of the game because nothing happened. It may be tense and atmospheric at times, but they could've done SO much more in terms of fucking with the players head. Even Dead Space for iOS had some neat ideas - hallucinations, subtly breaking the fourth wall, even fucking with your perception and making you wonder what's real or not, even during combat, would've made the game way more tense and actually a horror game with good survival/action elements. That's another bit: mix the mindfuckery and the combat parts, because them being completely seperate is kinda weak.

2 is objectively the best game in the entire trilogy even if the first one was scarier
3 was okay, the plot was a mess, gameplay remained mostly the same and the weapon crafting was cool but i feel that giving us template weapons like in 1&2 with the usual weapon upgrade trees would have been met with no contention, since the weapon crafting thing kind of took away from the identity of each weapon, so to speak

Dead Space 3 got fucked hard by EA trying to push it into the made-up category of AAAA. I still remember those "hype" talks from release. Hey folks, the first AAAA game! It's so good that saying it's AAA would be an understatement! Morons.

Then it turned into an average TPS with some spooks.

Wait, what trilogy?

Dead Space only got 2 games, then was permanently shelved by EA before they could shit out some terrible third game with a shoehorned in love triangle, microtransactions, terrible Cawwaduty game design, and a cliffhanger ending sold as DLC.

Dead Space 1 and 2 are good for different reasons. 1 has a better setting and atmosphere, but 2 has much more polished combat and a greater difficulty curve.

DS1 - 10/10 - Great game design, memorable enemies and weapons, cool level design that makes the ship feel like a real place, fantastic atmosphere

DS2 - 9/10 - Basically a retread of the first game with slightly improved gameplay. Loses the atmosphere of the first game. New enemies besides the Stalker aren't memorable, nor are the new weapons, best parts of the game are just callbacks to the first

DS3 - 8/10 - Completely ditches the atmosphere of the first game to turn into a pure action game, weapon system is weird and universal ammo just makes you use the most efficient guns, Lame new enemies, Good universe building, Bad plot, Gameplay still good

I know people hate the silent protagonist type main character, but I honestly preferred Isaac when he was just a bad ass who did nothing but yell and grunt.

I felt more of a connection to his character when he didn't talk. Also, I don't think some people appreciate the appeal of having a silent protagonist in a video game. Especially in a horror game. It's the game basically asking you to be the character, trying to draw you more into the game.

>Dead Space
Good horror game. Took Resident Evil 4's gameplay and slightly polished it while also giving us actually scary shit instead of Ganados.

>Dead Space 2
Practically perfected RE4's control scheme, making it feel amazing to play. Downside is it goes more for shock value than actually scaring you, and you can tell EA started meddling where they shouldn't have, such as Isaac being a blabbermouth.

>Dead Space 3
Utter garbage. Somehow made the gameplay feel terrible and unsatisfying. Made Necromorphs HUGE ammo sponges to the point where a max damage weapon will not one-shot a limb (plasma cutter, that weird melee weapon). Tried to make Dead Space an actiony title. Story is ridiculously dumb and edgy.

It's every single optional objective. Every single one just throws wave after wave of enemies at you to mow down, and by the last third of the game the standard segments do it too.

Two was the peak of the series; a gory outer space improvement on Uncharted with some amazing set pieces. One is the sentimental favorite--and still pretty great game---because of its emphasis on horror.

If you can man all three off Origin for a song, it's not a bad short series to blow through. Just forget the headshot.

Issac wasn't ever immune, but Ellie somehow was even though the game itself never actually referenced her immunity.

>>343918247
idk what you are talking about. i just really adored the relationship between them and was pretty upset that they broke up.
>>
>>343918140

I liked the underwater sections at the end, the braindead sound puzzles too. I don't know, it didn't felt like mindless necro arenas. I had fun.

Great setting wasted on a subpar jump scare QTE horror
>>
>>343918182
In quality; yes. Thematically; three ruins the analogy.
>>
>>343896306
1 was scrapped system shock 3 concepts, pretty good tps tho

2's more action-y atmosphere goes complete full-blown action schlock after the digger machine segment and it's great, is a better game all-around despite shitty dlc implementation

3 picks up where 2 left the series off, and anyone who was surprised by its tone is a fuckin dummy. its still the worst game though
>>
>>343918363

It's clearly a plothole but cmon. You people give DS3 a lot of undeserved hate.

>>343918734
Carver hands over the machine key to a crazy man who wants to wake up an ancient evil to save woman who will die anyways if the ancient evil is awoken. In doing so, he dooms the entire human race to die, as seen in the DLC. Somehow, Issac doesn't stomp his head in for being such a fucking faggot.
>>
1st one was great
2 was shit except for these rocket boots flying sequences
3 was terrible enough for me to stop playing halfway through.
>>
>>343918451

What relationship? It was poorly written and characters were bland as fuck.
>>
>>343918943
Both Ellie and Issac were good characters in 2.
>>
>tfw have the whole trilogy but only ever played like 3/4th of the first Dead Space

I got stuck where you need to freeze the propeller thing, float through it, plant a thing in space and come back but I'm so shit at timing I kept fucking up and getting gibbed by the propellers moving again and got tired of replaying the same 10 minute fight with the necromorphs before getting to that part.

Dead Space 1 was created during a time without the COWADOODY DLC bullshit corruption of today, and it was glorious.

Dead Space 2 was created when the cancer had just started to kick in, but still came out good.

Dead Space 3 took the full brunt of the cancer-age. It's shit.
>>
I don't know how but I feel being able to customize the guns so much made it worse
>>
One is a quality game with good jump spooks and fun premise, pays a lot of homages and respect to sci-fi and horror classics.

Second one was a good third-person shooter with some body horror and slightly less fun sci-fi thrown in but started going in a direction where people did not want it to go.

Three is pure garbage.
>>
>>343897187
3 is probably the most fun, the crafting system is legit addictive
>>
>>343919014

Yeah? How? Ellie shows up in two cutscenes and the ending. DS2 has a silly scifi cliche filled plot. DS3 wasn't a sudden drop of the script quality.
>>
>>343919392

This. I was worried by the presence of universal ammo but I think it was truly worth it.
>>
>>343919235
In previous games, some weapons were only good for their alt fire and so would be used for that. In 3, you can make a rifle have the alt fire of anything you want. Also stasis coating was the dumbest shit they could have done.
>shooting an enemy slows them down to make it easier to shoot them which slows them down which makes them easier to shoot
>>
>>343919449
Did you even play it? Ellie was a significant character to the story. Furthermore, Dead Space has never been pure generic sci-fi.
>>
>>343919449
isaac talks to her throughout the second half of the game. they show personalities and a development of the relationship betweeen both of them is shown.

You people must be devoid of real human interaction if you think that the relationship between Ellie and Isaac was meaningful to the story or some thought was put into it. It was just cliche riddled filler.

ellie told isaac what to do for a certain amount of time and helped him out from time to time so yes the story very much dependet on their relationship to each other. besides whats wrong with cliche riddled fillers?

She could have been some old researcher in a lab and have the exact same dialogue and the history wouldn't have changed one bit. But they decided to put a brown girl and people acted like she was 10/10 waifu material.

Yes and? That applies to every character in all fiction. But she was this character.

I know she isn't pasty as fuck but she's still pretty white

Love 1, 2 was good, can't be arsed to play 3 despite getting it in the origin bundle.
>>
>>343921806

What's the matter? Do you hate derelict ships, forsaken artic bases and underwater eldritch cities?
>>
>>343921892

My point is that there is no romance involved.

>>343922175
the first couple hours in space are pretty amazing and well worth playing.

>>343906265
I just couldn't like the other weapons. In 3 I even made a dual plasma cutter. Stuck a plasma cutter on a plasmer cutter which gave me twice the ammo per reload.

Was awesome.
>>
>>343922516
They came to rely on one another and Ellie literally saved him after he had given up on life. Of course they got together. Of course they didn't start courting one another throughout the game directly, there were stab zombies about.
>>
>>343922516
>these two character's didn't start dating during the necromorph apocalypse
Yeah they should have had a mission in where you escort her around the scenic park and fuck in a bush while fighting off necromorphs.
>>
>>343896306
DS1 was a meal you didn't expect to love. Had horror,jump scares, awesome atmosphere, unique way to kill monsters and more importantly it felt gritty and dirty which is what horror is about, uglyness and depression. It's as close to John Carpenters "the Thing" as we will ever get in a game.

DS2 had to be different. Dialed down horror and traded it for action. It was still pretty beautiful and it should have been where Clark's story ended. It would be the left overs of the meal you loved but stuck in a sub sandwich, still pretty good but a small downgrade.

DS3 I have no Idea where to begin. Other anons described it better and other anons repressed the thought of ever even knowing its existence, kinda says it all really.It's the RE 5 of the series and maybe even the SH Downpour of the series.
>>
The third one was a solid action game, like a retard with a foot fetish it fails on all other accounts.
