>I love SH2 but it's the least fun to actually play I feel.
Boring gameplay in SH2 was intentional in order to make the player feel depressed as the game protagonist. Yes gameplay is also important for emotional impacts in a game.
>as a game SH3 is way more tense and difficulty is much better balanced.
SH3 had harder gameplay combat instead to make the player want to avoid combat by feeling week and despaired as a confused teenager searching for her daddy who's also afraid to do harm to monsters that might be humans.
>I like SH1's exploration, ambiguity, and puzzles better but as a game SH3 is way more tense and difficulty is much better balanced.
In contrast to SH3, SH1 had a mad daddy looking for his daughter and ready to kill everything in his path to save her, SH1 had a lot of ammo to allow for that
