“Often people ask me, ‘How would you describe the game? What kind of game is it?’”, muses Rogue Factor creative and art director Jonathan Jacques Belletête. “It’s just a good old adventure game like back in the days, you know? It’s like [when] you booted up Zelda: Link to the Past. You didn’t question it.”After playing a few hours of Hell is Us, in which I explored contemporary-looking European villages and countrysides laden with seemingly alien ancient temples and inhuman monstrosities, I think players will raise quite a few questions. And those mysteries are what make this upcoming action-adventure game…

Every single time someone who is not the Slayer appears on my screen in Doom: The Dark Ages, I feel ripped (and torn) out of the game.
