I've never been able to play the first ObsCure game due to how expensive it is, I've only ever been able to watch it on YouTube. But I played ObsCure 2 a lot as a kid, I think it was probably the first horror game I ever played. So Imma rank the 7 main characters in the 2nd from favorite to least favorite :) I love all the characters though, the lower ranked ones are not disliked by me, but I do indeed have a least favorite.

Amy Brookes
I find Amy to be the most fun to play as and she had some of the best sections in the game with Kenny & Corey, and even Sven at some point but the parts with Kenny & Corey were better. I think she had great chemistry with all 3 of them too, and despite Corey not actually being one of her love interests, I actually shipped those 2 more than any other pairing. They were partnered up together for so long to the point where I was just like "Okay, you guys just need to do it & get it over with already" lol I grew an attachment to them together more so than Corey & Mei together and thought they'd be cute together and they had some serious love-hate banter, it was adorable. She also had some fun puzzles, she's supposed to be the "dumb blonde" cliche yet is also one of the most intelligent out of the group as someone with a lower IQ wouldn't be able to see the small and trivial details in a complex puzzle. I put this as a trivia point on her page actually, but other than Corey, she's the only character that can be partnered up with every other main character in the game, only it's not mandatory like it is with Corey. AND out of all the characters that died, she was the last one to go so she's a baddy for holding out that long. Her or Corey should have survived though smh and she's very ..."aesthetically" pleasing to look at sometimes 0_0 don't judge me lol love her outfit though. What makes me mad is that after Sven dies, they kinda just forget about her & she's no longer needed, despite still being right there. The entire Leafmore High sequence we can play as her, we just never need to like we do with the other remaining 3, so she's essentially just a pregnant mannequin... how'd she get that big so quickly btw? I wish they hadn't gone in that direction, she deserved better and it would have been cool had she actually made it all the way rather than just being a potential study object. Anyway, she also has the most personality to me, albeit some cringey lines sometimes lol I do remember her monologue from Corey's nightmare the most out of any other line in the game though... iconic. She came off very villainess like in it & evil, she was the most unsettling part about his dream tbh. I wonder what it would have been like had they written her in that direction like they did with Kenny.

Mei Wang
I am a girl, so when I was a little kid I would prefer to play as the girls of course, only I was never able to play as Shannon until I was like 11 rather than 7 lol so I grew an attachment to Amy & Mei. Like Amy, she actually has some fun puzzles and like Amy, I lovvveed her outfit as a kid and still do, she's also aesthetically pleasing to look at... just not as sexy lol that's what I meant with Amy, I was calling her sexy smh. Honestly though, she died too early, we should have been able to play as her & and another character a little bit more. Her death was ShOcKInG though, the most shocking one in the game tbh. I was stunned as a kid and even today it still takes me aback when it happens, plus it was brutal too, dayum. I loved playing as her, her sections & her puzzles more than Shannon & her sections/puzzles. And I liked Mei's interactions with Corey & Sven more than Shannon's interactions with Corey & Stan. and I'm a little disappointed that she was pretty much replaced by Shannon as 1 of the 2 current playable female character after her death. Shannon's great, she's just better in the 1st game to me and I wish there was more focus on the newer characters like Amy, Sven & Mei (I didn't include Corey because we play as him the most lol)

Corey Wilde
I don't care that he died, he was THE main character in this game. It breaks my heart that he was supposed to live but they just couldn't afford to make the scenes that would have had him survive. They introduced all these new characters just to kill them all off, what was even the point of introducing them in the first place? It would have been worth it if Corey lived, which he was supposed to, but didn't smh. Or apparently, it was gonna be a race to the stadium and he'd live or die depending if you were on time or not? That would have been cool as Hell. Anyway, Corey is awesome. He was the first one we play as and we play as him the most, he's the only one that is forced to be paired up with every other main character to progress in the game, he killed Jedidiah like a badass (but then after that they lose any & all focus on him) and he's on the cover of the game, oh and I'm pretty sure he's the fastest member of the group. He also has a really cool skill, like yeah Sven & Kenny are strong but the core strength Corey must have is immaculate, that's why his name is COREy lol my 'lil apeman. I used to think he only killed himself because of Mei and I was like "Bro she wouldn't want that!" But now I know it's because Kenny infected him and he didn't wanna end up like Kenny which I get, a fate worse than death. I probably would have done the same... that wouldn't have happened though had they actually let him live though smh. He's also really funny too and has great chemistry with almost all the characters and I like seeing him interact with everyone. I do think had he lived until the end, the final boss battle would have been better with him & Shannon rather than Shannon & Stan. Yeah Stan's awesome and they have history, but Kenny killed Corey's girlfriend and that was Shannon's brother so like, switch out Stan & Corey from the 2nd & 3rd fight with Kenny lol

Kenny Matthews
I should really place Sven above him but I have a soft spot for Kenny. He turned into a monster too early, it really should have been done a little later in the game so we had a little more time with him (he was the other character I was referring to on Mei's part btw). On the back of the game case there's a picture of him & Stan partnered together, like wtf that would have been awesome. Imagine if we had a spot playing as him either going to the hospital or in the hospital, that'd be great. His partner would have probably been Shannon which would also have been awesome since they're siblings and it would have made the scene with her begging him to fight & him turning into a monster even more emotional. Anyway, those few short moments where we got to play as Kenny were great, they were really fun, the first half of this game was so good, and I loved his & Amy's sexual banter lol when I was a kid I thought they were in a relationship. If he hadn't turned into a monster and instead remained cool, he probably would have had a chance. Poor Kenny, a fate worse than death, I wish he had fought it and had more willpower. When I was a kid and watched my brother play this I completely missed the scene with him turning and when I saw the monster I didn't realize that it was him, I was shook when I found out because I was like "wtf didn't we play as him earlier" Monster Kenny is vile & A POS... I love it but it's hard to watch when you really liked Kenny as a person. And I say I love it because I like intimidating & badass looking villains. Kenny was the only other returning character so it would have been cool if all returning characters got to be partnered up with each other at some point rather than just Stan & Shannon. Btw one thing I like about Kenny in the 2nd game is that he actually does feel like the new characters friends though, and isn't just isolated to Stan & Shannon like they are with each other, which made him turning on everybody suck even more. Like yes Stan & Shannon team up with Corey and interact with Sven & Amy but they don't feel like friends, but rather just people just trying to survive together, which I get on Stan's part because I doubt he even knew them beforehand but not Shannon's (she does show concern for everyone though so she's still cool) But tbf to Stan, he was P I S S E D about Sven's death and looked really sad about Corey's.

Sven Hansen
He was probably the kindest member of the group with a heart of gold which just made his death that much worse. He's Kenny's replacement in both skill & relationship with Amy, only theirs is more romantic. At some point him & Mei are together while Corey & Amy are together and it feels weird, like everything should be swapped and that we're with the wrong people lol. Sven's great he just doesn't feel important to the story which is where he suffers, he's more like a "middle" character. He's a main character but the least important & most expendable one, so he feels more like a playable side character sometimes who's just the main hero's sidekick rather than them being an equal team. He only ever feels like the hero when he's with Amy which surprisingly didn't last long & only happened once. Every other character is either important to the story or comes across as being a main character and needs to be there... except for him :( It wouldn't have been the same without him though I still love the guy and he's fun to play as. I like doing the strength puzzles and it was cool we still got to do them even after Kenny went apeshit lol it's too bad we couldn't have someone replace Mei's hacking puzzles smh I liked those. Btw when he's with Corey, I did not realize how slow he is lol or if Corey is just really fast. He also has an amazing laugh, that scene in the hospital warehouse where he's laughing at Corey while he was climbing was so funny lol

Stan Jones
Okay he's ranked low but I like Stan the man. I like him as a character a little bit more than Sven actually, I just wish we could play as Sven more. When Stan & Shannon come in, but mostly Shannon, they just completely take over and overshadow Sven & Amy, it gets annoying, but not Corey though because he's special and won't let them overshadow him lol. But I like Stan, he's super cool & laid back and I like the skater style he has and he seems like one of the most interesting characters and you can see he's still haunted by the memories. And when he's partnered up with Shannon & Corey I usually choose to play as him more. He's one of the OG characters and now that I'm older I can see that it's awesome to see him return, in fact he's the first character we see in the game despite being one of the last we play as, and he's the only character to have the same skill in both games. I actually love the pick locking doors puzzles as him, they can get really frustrating sometimes. I don't mind a little challenge but he does have the most difficult puzzles at some point. Plus he's modeled after Fine Ass Josh Hartnett from The Faculty, I love that guy ugh. Almost all the characters are mad cute tho lol oh and Stan's a real one for being P I S S E D about Sven's death, like I bet he barley even knew Sven but he was still angry & wanted to avenge him, he's a good friend, they would have been buds had Sven lived and he seemed sad about what happened to Mei & Corey.

Shannon Matthews
Okay before I start my little rant, I do like Shannon as a character, I just don't like the execution of her in the 2nd game. When she comes in, it just becomes the Shannon show, the other characters no longer feel important because we play as her sooo much. With Stan, we got breaks in-between but with Shannon, it feels rare when we don't play as her after she shows up, at the very end it's literally just her & Stan, and after the variety of characters and pairs we had the entire game, it gets kinda boring. She doesn't really feel like she has a personality either and doesn't really "react" to things either, especially compared to Amy, Kenny & Corey. I hope I'm making sense and am not just coming off as a hater because I don't hate her. I just don't find her to be nearly as fun to play as compared to some of the other characters. Her special skill on paper is really cool & unique, but the actual puzzle itself sucks and is boring, all we do is push circle, that's all, and we end up doing that a lot. It would have been better just to let her have healing power again tbh. Kenny should have been around longer and we should have played as them together at some point, that would have been awesome. Honestly the game should have been longer in both story & game-play. I would have rather had less focus on her and more on the newer characters they pushed to the side when her & Stan showed up.

Ranking ObsCure 2 Monsters
Okay now time to rank the monsters, same drill, favorite to least favorite... Do I rank the bosses? Like Friedman & Kenny?.. Nahh there's only 1 of each, I'll just focus on the common threats. I honestly don't know where I'd put most of the ObsCure 1 monsters because I've never fought them first hand like the monsters from part 2 because I've never played the 1st game, so I don't have an attachment to them :(

ArbolTrebol
Ah yeah, here we go, number 1 baby. The apex predator in the game, which makes sense considering they roar like a lion lol these things scare tf out of me sometimes. They're the first monsters in the game you come across in the 2nd game and then boom, it's tearing Mei's head off. But despite being the first ones you see, they're actually the last ones you face in the real world, full circle, and they always have to make their presence known by screaming at the top of their lungs lol but they inflect a lot of damage, and they're hard to kill, they take up a lot of my ammo sometimes because there's always 2 of them together, never 1 smh. I would like to see this thing and the Amorphous battle since they're the tallest & strongest creatures in the game. I bet Arbol would win though, just a hunch. These things are my favorite though since they leave an effect that no other monster has imo. And again they don't actually kill Mei, but it's the only monster we can see killing one of the main characters story wise which make them even more threatening. Their mouths also reminds me of something from Resident Evil 5 with how the tentacles open, but this came out way before RE5 so Arbol's for the win XD

Breeder
This is honestly the saddest monster, in fact when we fight them the background music actually sounds more sad compared to the music when fighting other monsters so I think the game feels the same way. I wish we could have seen what the hospital woman looked like turning into one, that would have been so cool but sad. The first one in particular I felt bad about after killing when I first realized what it was and realized that those weird crying sounds you hear before you go into that room was actually her turning. One time when I was watching my brother play, he said something like "It looks like a big vagina" and I was like "Dude I think it is". I swear though, I think its "tongue" was the umbilical cord. There's only 4 of them which make them feel more special when they do show up, the hardest one to kill imo is the first one but that's because we're in such a small area that you have to be careful plus it's the first one, which makes it extra hard when it's your first time playing.

Amorphous
Ah the big fat, blob of jelly looking things with t i t t i e s lol those things on the chest are breasts. These things and the ArbolTrebol's take up all my ammo sometimes I swear. The first one we come across is a little hard to kill imo because we had literally just talked to the girl before she turned into a monster, and we actually hear her turning into it when we're getting the gun. Thank you random lady though, she's the reason why we got our first gone lol. They're very slow but super strong which is why I stupidly just use 8 or 9 pistol bullets on it from afar just because it smacked me across the room one time. Literally, I was on one side and then suddenly on the other, nearly dead, because it swung its arm on me, I was shook. Anytime I see one or 2 coming towards me I go "Ah shit not this thing again" which is the best reaction it could get tbh.

Runner
These things are the most Resident Evil like monsters to me. They remind me of Lickers with how they look & move, I wonder if they got inspiration from the Lickers with these things actually? All that's missing is that really lounge tongue but the Breeder seemed to have taken that lol these things are really only threatening if they come in groups, like of 3 or more, or if they're in the presence of an Amorphous, especially if you have little ammo. If there's only 1 and you have little ammo it's okay because they go down with melee combat pretty easily but good luck with groups lol. But those 2 raise the question on would you rather be slow & strong or fast & weak? Oh and I also think there's more of these guys than any other monster in the game though, and these little assholes are hard to keep in sight with how fast they move sometimes... poor Matt though. We barley knew him but aw.

Evolved Infected
These things definitely look the most like zombies, especially in the first game. Like if the game was just filled with these things I think it could pass as a zombie game. Seems to me that they outgrew their clothes and are naked in the 2nd game lol they're nakey. They kind of come out of no where in the 2nd game though, I think it would have been cooler if they were given a proper introduction like the ArbolTrebol's rather than just coming out of nowhere in a sewer, and Corey and Sven actually didn't even comment on how they were different than the other monsters right there either. Sven did later on but that's only when the beast of ArbolTrebol's were with them too.

Spider Biter
They're mostly just a nuisance but are easy to get rid of, they're the least threatening thing ever, they give like 0 damage lol I find them more cute than anything. Like maybe not in game-play but when Professor James was examining one of them in that cut-scene (the photo I'm using) I thought it looked so cute, disgusting but cute, like a lil baby lol... oh wait some of them are legit lil babies 0_0 I find it strange that the spider biter he was examining and Matt the runner (that he also examined) didn't dissolve into black ashy flower dust after they died though like every other monster we kill. They only remain corpses when the story needs it I guess lol

Harpy
These things are such a pain in the ass, they don't inflect a lot of damage yet their kicks are brutal and can give a lot of damage if they keep doing it, which they always do. They're the only ones that fly which makes melee combat harder but it is effective yet also hard to do, I don't wanna waste ammo on them since it doesn't take a lot of hits to kill them. And they come in groups which make it can make it overwhelming. There's one section, I think it's when Corey & Shannon are in the boat, they literally do not end, it's never ending, they just keep coming & coming. They do feel the most human though, and idk if they're laughing or moaning, like it sounds like moans of pains but on the other hand they seem like they get pleasure of hurting people so idk but they like to mock me smh.
