Should go on Requiem's YMMV page, not this. Edit is also too short; give more reasons as to why the sequel was an improvement over the original gaming (e.g. in regards to writing, game design, etc).

* AluminumChristmasTrees: The lethality of [[SufferTheSlings slings]] is often downplayed in the modern day, so some players such as the hosts of the Short Games podcast have claimed Amicia's ability to kill is impossible.

** The first time Amicia upgrades her sling, there's a cutscene where she whirls it a bit. The model and animation used in gameplay is recycled, but they're really not meant for up close, and what seems naturalistic at the usual distance and angle strobes stiffly here.

*** Doubles up a bit with GameplayAndStorySegregation or TheComputerIsACheatingBastard - while "vortexing" like this, the rats are able to approach and extinguish light sources, and will do so with impunity any time they have the chance. [[spoiler:During the final part of the game, Hugo's controlled rats can be directed to vortex in the same way, but the player-controlled rats are [[NoSell completely stumped by light sources]].]]

Added to They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot
Changed line(s) 15 (click to see context) from:
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Amicia reacts with horror to her first kill, and the game seems to be setting up a fairly realistic depiction of how killing can profoundly change someone, especially if they're only a child and even if it may be justified. However, while Amicia does become less averse to using lethal force as the game progresses and even [[WhatTheHellHero gets called out by Melie]] for her excessive use of the sling, her personality doesn't otherwise change much, nor does this ever really affect the story.

** Some of this may also be due to the fact that there's actually several times in-game (at least twice, so unfortunately few chances) that Amicia may choose to save someone, or leave them to be devoured by the rats while helpless to whatever choice she decides upon, which ultimately leaves Amicia's attitude towards other lives up to interpretation by the player based on the choices they make in-game. Letting them die to the rat swarms would denote a callous and uncaring Amicia, while saving the English would show she's not willing to kill helpless men and will only use lethal force if she has to.
