The game is really hard since some areas are closed off and there’s no room to fall back.

I finished Dead Space 2 today. I really liked it, but I felt Isaac’s pain regarding the guilt and suffering he carries over Nicole’s death. In the final stretch of the game, that becomes more and more evident, and somehow I ended up empathizing with him.

Isaac can’t fix anything. He can’t do anything except accept it. He even tries to save Ellie and sacrifice himself, not only because of some attachment to her, but almost as if he’s trying to redeem himself for something that wasn’t even his fault. I mean, how could he possibly have known about the Ishimura?

And for a moment, I started to think the hallucinations were some kind of echo of Nicole’s memory, but it really was the Marker influencing him from the very beginning. But what truly broke me was him accepting death while sitting beneath the Marker.

Anyway, 10/10 game, I enjoyed it a lot. Now I’m going to start Dead Space 3.

On my way here, I found a ruined village and portal, so I built a basic house and leveled the land to create this plantation you see here, but I don't have much left :(

And the most embarrassing part is, I died in a really stupid way, basically getting stuck in a small hole with water while a little zombie chased me. My goal after I finish planting is to explore the map to find a desert biome, but maybe I'll need to mine first, I have very few ores left.
