Each step is ultimately the same as the first and most often is to the tune of the left mouse button clicking. There is certainly activity happening but damned if there’s any real progress. You run faster but the treadmill speeds up. With each lap the numbers increment: the numbers on your weapons, the numbers on your armour, the numbers on the enemies’ weapons, and the number on your enemies’ armour. Except the travelator loops back on itself creating a giant, circular treadmill. Playing Diablo, or any dungeon crawler, is like walking the wrong way up a very long travelator. How did this happen? What unholy horror tricked me into bed with a dungeon crawler? What sicken spell transformed me into a depraved loot chaser? No, the paralysing dread hit one year later while driving alone at night on a desolate stretch of Scottish countryside, the moonlight casting doubt over the bends in the road ahead, when I was horrified to realise Dead Space 3 was basically Diablo. Sadly, Dead Space 3 proved to be the weakest of the series for this reason, with the blend of co-op action and horror being a mixture that never fully gels.Dead Space 3 chilled me to my core. The game was released in an era where horror titles were leaning more towards action and setpieces over suspense, such as Resident Evil 6. In a bid to make Dead Space 3 the biggest of the series, EA pushed for new features like a co-op campaign, microtransactions, and human enemies.

The game contained more action and creatures while still retaining its scares. Despite the solid sales of Dead Space EA were still pushing for greater numbers for its sequel and insisted Dead Space 2 be a more blockbuster affair. Unfortunately, it did weak business but later received a PlayStation 3 port.
It was also given a big marketing push which included a feature-length anime prequel called Dead Space: Downfall.Ī well-reviewed spinoff called Dead Space: Extraction followed in 2009, which was a rail shooter that also served as a prequel to the first title. The game was basically a mixture of Event Horizon and Resident Evil 4, blending tense horror with gory combat.
The story followed mute protagonist Isaac Clarke as he battled his way through a spaceship filled with twisted creatures called Necropmorphs. It's the final chapter of the series so how long does Dead Space 3 take to beat? The original Dead Space arrived in 2008 and was billed as the start of brand new survival horror franchise.
