Hollow 2

I read some negative comments after finishing the first game but I still wanted to try this. Wow! It's incredible how bad this game is and how BROKEN it is. I had to restart the game twice in less than an hour because I got stuck and the doors were not opening. I didn't bother to keep playing after that. The game also feels like a step backwards instead of a step forward when compared to the original. The first game was not that good either but it's definitely superior and at least it actually tried to be scary and disturbing. But now everything is just a joke. Now it's basically a (very bad) DOOM 3 wannabe. The only thing I liked a bit at first was the sexy female voice, but even that voice ended up feeling annoying and repetitive pretty fast. The gameplay felt generic and boring, at least to me. I got this game in a discount for only $3.79 but there are endless free horror games that are much better than this. I used to have hope that a sequel could improve on the original and be a lot better, but after this I don't even care about a "Hollow 3." They should either remake all this franchise, or create something completely new... Or, in the worst-case scenario, they should stop …

Setting is cool, assets are amazing, rendering looks great, and simple fps shooter

It's a cheap Dead Space-like adventure or a "B" rated scifi movie. Maybe it's because I have not even played a lot or maybe I have a different perspective on judging games. Even on sale, this game seems off... almost like it's half-baked. There's lots and lots of spaces where audio logs, interactive items, or note/clues should be placed. I had to refund the game... what a waist of time.

Hollow 2, developed by MegaPixel Studio S. A. and published by Forever Entertainment S. A., is a sci-fi shooter that attempts to course-correct from its predecessor by leaning more heavily into action while still retaining traces of its horror roots. Set aboard the abandoned mining vessel Shakhter-One, the game once again places players in a claustrophobic, hostile environment where reality feels unstable and danger is constant. The premise suggests a blend of psychological tension and survival, but the sequel quickly reveals its priorities through a more aggressive and combat-driven approach. The most defining aspect of Hollow 2 is its shift toward fast-paced gameplay. Instead of focusing on slow exploration and atmospheric dread, the game emphasizes frequent combat encounters, often placing players in tight corridors where enemies attack in waves. This creates a steady rhythm of movement and shooting that keeps the experience active, rarely allowing for extended quiet moments. While this approach improves pacing compared to the original, it also reduces the sense of vulnerability and suspense that typically defines the horror genre. The result is a game that feels more like a st…

Decent enough gameplay, but annoying, repetitive and unpolished overall. Wildly overpriced for the short, uninspired game you get. I wouldn't have bought this outside of a sale anyway (90% off sales are likely the main way this game is selling tbh), but £15.49 for a poor quality 2 hour game is wild. My first impression was that the movement made me nauseous, which is always a bad sign - even if I did adjust to it. Then you get into the combat and irritating dialogue. The voice acting is annoying, ceaseless and feels like it belongs in a kids' mascot horror game. The basic combat is fine enough, but has zero depth, far too many enemies that just keep spawning in and little care given to enemy placement or design. Just spam the shoot button and you win. The guy comparing it to Doom 3 in the reviews is objectively wrong since Doom 3 is actually a good game with intentionally designed monster encounters, exploration and tension, all of which are lacking from Hollow 2. Arenas are either too cramped and involved spinning around to catch the enemies spawning behind you all the time, or large circles you can circle strafe around to win (especially the bosses) - it's lazy. The boss fight…

it's interesting, i like the idea of the story, but the gameplay is a little stiff but overall i dont think it's that bad of a game
