She’s actually an intriguing character and her snippets of dialogue make you want to get to know her more. Shelia is a character that is badly under-used in Bright Memory. The only real break you get from the action is the occasional moment where the camera pulls itself out of the first person and you can admire Shelia for a few seconds before she’s attacked by something new and it’s back into the action.
The transitionary spaces between these moments are over in just seconds (usually a room or two with ammo restocks before it’s back to the action), and the reason the plot doesn’t really make sense is largely because it’s told through two-three sentence dialogue sequences in between all of this. In real blink-and-you’ll-miss-it design, you’ll be guiding Shelia through a stealth section one moment, only to switch to a Doom or Shadow Warrior-inspired spawning arena set piece the next, before then facing down a boss with melee attacks a moment later. Across its two-hour run time, it blisters along with barely a moment to allow you to catch a breath, and crams plenty of variety in terms of the enemy patterns, environmental threats, and boss battles into that run time. To be clear, Bright Memory’s action really is big. Given that I’ve been playing the likes of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Live A Live in between Bright Memory, this has been the near-perfect break from that. Okay, so the plot doesn’t make much sense (or any), but at least it’s not saying Reagan was good, and it subsequently gets out of the way of the big action. You play ash Shelia, a drop-dead gorgeous operative that… finds herself doing something about a black hole and attacking goons with guns and gladiators from ancient Rome in equal measures. It removes itself from the deeply unpleasant, frankly indefensible political positions that the AAA studios produce as near-propaganda, and instead drops players into a thing that has the kinetic action and bullet ballet of the genre at its best, but with a vastly more pleasant concept. In all seriousness, Bright Memory: Infinite is exactly the kind of shooter that I like. Choose between incendiary bombs, sticky grenades, homing missiles, and more to suit your situation.So, as it turns out, if you take the raging, rancid, unapologetic nationalism, historical revisionism, and military hero worship out of an FPS, and instead drop in a really pretty girl with a bikini costume option and pink gun skin, then I go from hating the genre to loving it.
