It swaps out the simple, effective creepiness of the first game for a bunch of confusing stuff. It builds up this whole world, but instead of making things scarier, it just feels… smaller. It’ll build some tension, and then just throws it away to focus on expanding lore that doesn’t really add anything.

Scarlett Johansson has been discussing the lawsuit she filed against Disney in 2021, expressing her disappointment that more people in the industry didn’t publicly support her.
