Here, they're present, even more of a dominant force in regards to the narrative, and you're given NO context at all as to who they are, or why you don't just team-up with them against the apocalyptic forces, as that would make WAY more sense. With that, the Human enemies in the first game, and its expansions, were very easy to understand, as they were essentially just engineered soldiers, but F.E.A.R 2 did complicate things by having seemingly regular humans as the enemy with only minimal context. The first two F.E.A.R titles (as well as the two Expansions to part 1) kept things simple, in a good way, where you only understood the crux of what took place – enough so that you felt sick to your stomach (despite the horror itself), but not so much that it becomes too much, but F.E.A.R 3 tries to tell you every little detail of its story, leaving nothing to the imagination. In fact, the Story of the game is a bit bonkers and messy – I do respect that it was attempting something notably more epic and grand than previous entries, but it feels more like Halloween 6 than anything. In regards to the Story, the game does have some serious issues when it comes to the Human & Monster context. Interestingly, the game does look better after the horror kicks in, although at the same time, this game was released in the same year as Modern Warfare 3, the the difference in visuals is staggering, despite this game also being a AAA title. These tense moments, while not horrifying, do very much keep you on edge, and you do feel rather afraid when you hear enemies around you, human or monster. From the moment you're stuck in a Costco/BJ's style store, being stalked by quick-moving things that crawl on the walls (constantly running out of sight, rather than attacking you), the game does become a full-fledged Action/Horror game, and outside of the earlier F.E.A.R games themselves, this might be the best PC game of that fusion since Doom 3. However, having said all of that, the game does quickly, and effectively, get better. Objects all over the place are extremely low resolution, reminding me of things like the first Max Payne – boxes/cans of food look straight out of a late 90's FPS, and the broken textures are often times just 3D-looking textures painted onto completely flat walls, like RE4 did. Heck, having said that, I'm pretty sure that F.E.A.R 2 has better graphics than this game. They're basically Modern Warfare, but with bullet-sponge enemies, sloppier controls, surprisingly lackluster level design, and woefully poor graphics despite being 4 years newer than MW1.
