The first plague tale was great, I got started on the new one but my controller is a bit fucked, pulled it apart to clean up the drifting right stick, which is better but the left has gotten worse, and for a stealthy, don't step too close to those rats or move at the wrong time game, it's not very helpful. At least I'm not constantly looking up now.

Had been reading about this new Plague Tale thing, first one had gone completely under my radar. While on the fence I watched a video review mentioning it was on gamepass that I keep forgetting I have. Which was nice.
It looks incredible - in terms of both art direction and graphics quality - unless you really dislike rats. There are a lot of rats.
The protagonist isn't as endearing as Aloy or Ellie, and after a few hours the stealth gameplay is starting to feel a bit limited and repetitive. Having got used to many third-person games being rather open it seems very linear, at least as far as I've got.
Spoiler alert: There really are a lot of rats.
