Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II — A mighty warrior whose tale is too short | The DeanBeat


From the moment that you start playing Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, you are tossed in a storm like a sailor on the seas of fate.

This is a familiar state for Senua, who is one of the most interesting video game characters of all time, played with a stirring performance by voice actor Melina Juergens. As it did with the first game, Ninja Theory enlisted the help of Paul Fletcher, a doctor who treats people with psychosis and a professor at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. I liked how there were moments that the developers found to convey the sense of determination and struggle Senua must marshal to move onward, like when she has to crawl through a cave with claustrophobic effect.
