If you get complacent or comfortable. If you get cocky or lose respect even with a maxed out GRP or Baton, you'll pay. I beat it on NG+ Maximum. Enjoyed it. Had the Hand Cannon almost maxed, Riot Gun maxed, SMG with capacity and damage upgrade and fully maxed GRP and Baton by the end. I only kept the SMG to pick up ammo to sell. This game actually taught me some tactics and strategy that I immediately implemented into a play through of OG Dead Space while I wait on my physical copy of Dead Space Remake. I'll probably buy the season pass for TCP. I enjoyed it. Beat it 3 times now, twice on Max. I feel like it's more fluid, and in my opinion they may have nerfed the enemies a little, but I feel as though they made the 2 Heads and Capt Farris a little tougher. Just my opinion.

Amazing review! Not sure how I feel about the changes. Just from your review gameplay I share your sentiment that the combat might be too easy now. I do remember at the beginning of my first playthrough I felt that the combat was tedious (launch day.) I felt that way until I started experimenting with all the various mechanics and found just as you did, that it was a do or die kind of thing ,when it came to encounters. When I think of it now, I realize that it made me fond of the game. Also at the end of only thing that left a bad taste in my mouth was those goddamn crawling sections haha.

Time is an interesting commodity. This game recently went free on Epic Launcher. My experience with the game was around 5 hours or so, on and off at a friends house. from ch1 to ch6. I would go there and we played while we hung out and had drinks. I went through it, from "This is cool", to "this is crap" and back again. The primary issue was MARKETING. Glen and his crew were talking it up as if it was going to follow up and surpass Dead Space... and that set it up for failure. over a year removed from that hype, and on a free copy, I beat the game in 8 hours and immediately booted an NG+ and am 3 chapters in... over the course of a handful of days. I love this game. I have found depth in the combat, with various ways to 'extend' combos and keep enemies from retaliating. NG+ has been great because as i bring my gear to new levels, I am excited to see how much they wreck house. There are many complaints, but this far from release, and on a FREE copy (which is pretty important to note), I am having a blast. I would say if Dead Space Remake is a 9.5/10 for me, then Callisto Protocol is easily an 8/10. It has issues, it has flaws, but it is FUN. The combat initially came across as one note, and monotonous but that is a really poor criticism to lay on a game. This game basically inverts the norm... so most games you shoot and use melee as a finish or in a pinch - but this game is more melee focused and then you shoot for crit dmg... okay? how is that 'repetitive', but shooting everything 90% of the time isn't? Furthermore, this game plays almost exactly like TLoU 2. You can shoot a kneecap, charge in and melee. The dodge system is basically exactly the same as TLoU 2. I'm rambling, but it's a real shame this game caught the hate it did. Everyone wants to enjoy a witch hunt nowadays, but this game deserved better and could have possibly gotten better reception if they didn't misrepresent themselves on Glen's shoulders.

The game's combat was botched from the beginning. The idea to put the dodge button on the same stick you use to move your character was a mistake. And the challenge of the game came more from bad controls and animations than genuine challenge.

@@SSJdavey I have not played "The Callisto Protocol" myself, so I could be misunderstanding its combat system. But to give an apparently contrasting example, "Bloodborne" is a game that gives players the option to both dodge and parry certain attacks, using a well-timed firearm shot for the latter. Also, the dodging does not play out like some repetitive quick-time-event, which players seemingly have to do over and over again in between swings.

I beat it within a week of launch and have absolutely no desire to return to it whatsoever. The problem wasn't difficultly for me. It was fun factor mainly. The only sequence I had any fun with was the blizzard with the frozen enemies and thats maybe 3 minutes in an 11 hour game. The rest is a robotic beat em up followed by 5 hours of stealthing past the exact same blind enemy type. Another problem was the blandness of everything. From the architecture to the lore it was just tasteless scifi mush. I know everyone and their mother compares this game to Dead Space but I honestly can't think of a single aspect of Dead Space that is as bland and devoid of character as Callisto is. You can't fix my Callisto problems with patches. You'd have to completely rebuild the game with new art and a new story and that ain't gonna happen.

A simple solution is to add a toggle classic or new combat system before starting a game so both sides can be happy. Imo they dumped it down too much. Healing is likely meant to be out of combat use or be an extremely risky one. They could have also kept harder combat AI for the hardest difficulty........ I think it is good if higher difficulties have other things different than dmg dealt and taken modifiers.....

I just tweak my settings to my likings tbh to make things bearable , I turned up sensitivity quite a bit as I found it sluggish as mentioned and noticed near the end of the game there is ways to cheat the enemies , just dodge till you get that free time to hit as enemies don’t always attack twice at once (side note the sprint failing can be annoying if I must say) but for the most part if it gets like buggish just do the cheap method and use the grav gauntlet (upgrade it tho cause it’s pretty mid stock)

I think with the current change to the game. It's should be only applied to the easiest difficulty setting while for the harder difficulty setting would be the way it was before the patch. This way players can have the option for a harder experience without these changes. While others that just want to play mostly just for the story can use the easier difficulty that has these changes and have an easier time to follow along with the story without much hassle and the determine after they are done decide wether or not if they want to increase the difficulty.

I preordered the game but didn’t pick it up when I heard that it basically released unfinished and combat was broken. Striking Distance could either listen and respond to consumer feedback on the biggest turn offs for the game or they could double down on the problems like Back 4 Blood did. B4B never fixed the main issues players had with the broken difficulty or reward system. Now they’re moving on due to dwindling player count in the low thousands. Gotta give credit to SD for at least listening to their community.

Callisto Protocols biggest problem was the combat hands down. It looks flashy the first time you see it, but then you quickly realise that it's what makes up 80% of the combat in the entire game. You can't do different combos really, and you only get 1 melee weapon, which means that all encounters play out the same - you just beat the shit out of them with the same attack combos and dodge. Which wears off in like 2 hours tops, and gets to a point where you roll your eyes at every encounter. Guns are way too weak and only become viable at maximum upgrades which is shit... Dead Space on the other hand was scary because keeping the enemies away was the whole game and when they got close it was panic mode. Melee and stomping was Issac's last resort. If it even had a fun gameplay loop, I think it could have been reasonably carried by the setting, and even a mid tier story. But nope, it's just a melee simulator...
@buildman126
@buildman126 Год назад
Idk I haven't seen people complaining about the "difficulty" of the game. The complaints are usually on the combat system just being unfun. Personally, I refunded the game because it wasn't what I was looking for. I wasn't looking for Dead Space 4 or anything like that. I just wanted some gritty, survival horror. I didnt feel any sort of fear. It would've just been average, like 5-6/10, if the combat system wasn't the antithesis to survival horror. They put faaaar too much power in the players hands; infinite dodging with 0 skill required and the GRP being able to pick up & chuck enemies are some of the most egregious faults.
@SSJdavey
@SSJdavey Год назад
The callisto Facebook group when it launched was stacked with people complaining about the 2 head platform section, it was all I was seeing! Totally agree with what you've said here apart from GRP, I found it balanced quite well with the lack of batteries on the first run which offsets the power it provides You're bang on though the combat system and dodging in particular is so basic as soon as you get it down Damn shame 😕

The ending teasing a DLC/sequel was the last insult to me; having Jacob sacrifice himself at the end was the last chance to redeem his character for being badly written & developed; that twist where he knew he was shipping the pathogen to Europa (despite earlier having it look like he just realised he was responsible) was one of the stupidest moments in the story.

If im being honest, I dont think TCP and the issues you bring up about difficulty, are the real issue, I generally think TCP, in general is just bad overall in design, and the reason you don't like the changes now or that players before wanted more improvements, just generally goes to show, you can't fix bad design. The mechanics if done well, would of never needed two sides to be so polar opposite. The inherent melee combat and its dodge mechanic requires no skill, and them diminishing the the skill ceiling, for other elements such as heals and weapons, and enemy behavior just goes to show, that everything was generic and not thought out right, this is why any adjustment is not met with universal acclaim. If these devs truly want to fix TCP they would just re-invent the mechanics to fit the world and systems better. Who thinks of a dodge mechanic, that doesn't take into account, direction of input, as an example. There is just nowhere for that to grow, to become better, other than making direction matter, which is how any good game would of done it and has done. There is only one way to improve on that and thats to do what other games have already done, thus destroying what they set out to do anyway. So they've put themselves in a position, of being generic no matter what they do. Unless they scrap a gameplay system and re-think it for something new and original in its place. Which they wont do. Thats why this game will take years upon years to reach 5 million sales if it ever does. I think this this game will serve as a lesson, on when accessibility is at the forefront of a game, rather than a consideration. Good game-play systems can include accessibility options and design choices without it causing a determent to the game-play overall, but in bad cases, you get The Callisto Protocol. However, when you compare Dead Space, to TCP, I am shocked at how someone like Glenn Schofield doesn't understand that nuance. I begin to see evidence that perhaps Glenn was never the person to really drive the gameplay or mechanics and systems of the world, but probably was more of a jack of all trades, just overseeing things, but he did come up with the cool settings and world building, but that is nowhere near as critical as gameplay ..in a game. Where it matters most. I think someone at Visceral Games was really under appropriated, when it came to testing and refining Dead Space's gameplay, systems and flow of combat, and Glenn was probably overvalued if I am being honest.

Most people complained about the combat as whole being terrible, but I think the main problem with it is not the combat in itself, but the pacing. I mean you guys can look up on YT to see cool combat gameplays and those videos sums up how people should've played the game. The combat is the only thing that keeps me coming back because I understand it, and I kinda like it. Anyways, these updates don't really change the game at all imo. It's still a bad game. When I first played this game (Day 1 btw) I'm pretty lucky to have not experience any bugs or performance issues (I played it on PC), but my problem with it is that it's just too bland and boring. These updates? They don't add anything. I've been replaying the game from zero until the NG+ so having NG+ is cool, but I'm already used to not replaying it with NG+ so, again, these updates don't change anything. Also, a lot of people seems to defend the game by saying "it's not a Dead Space game! So stop comparing it to Dead Space!". My response will always be the same. It is true that it's not a Dead Space game, but one of the people who worked on this game was Glen Schofield. People know him to the the guy behind Dead Space and he certainly knows that too. With that fact, instead of making a different game than Calisto, Glen sort of (sorry for the lack of better word here) "exploits" the fact that he made Dead Space, so he made a game that looks like Dead Space. In a sense, he's basically said "Hey guys, it's me! The guy who made Dead Space! I'm making a game that looks like Dead Space but it's not Dead Space!". I know I'm kinda ranting here and went off topic but still, I just wanna share some things that people keep saying about Calisto and my response to them as a hardcore Dead Space fan and probably the only person on this planet who spent 100 hours on Calisto.

It's not that hard really. Make normal difficulty have all these changes, and have a super hardcore mode with original settings. There you can have both worlds covered. The healing mechanic was a good change IMO, mostly because you can't expect people to be speedrunners doing an entire are no hit. It can become frustrating and not challenging. Even more, checkpoints could fuck you up if you get caught with no healing between fights. But again, you could have the old slow animation on hardcore difficulty if you want. Weapon swap is a good change too. I think they just need to balance normal and hard experiences and they'll be ok.

Thats not a great sign at all, but not too surprising given the reception The only issue with the theory is that they are published by 2 completely different companies, Krafton published TCP, whereas EA published Dead Space, so there's no monetary incentive for Krafton/ striking distance to help Dead Space.

Haven’t gone back. Callisto failed survival horror for me, between the cheap scares, forced shimmy/crawl segments and botched combat mechanics it gives me no incentive to play it knowing it’s just the same repetitively dull experience again and again. Unlike the dead space remake which feels fresh and fun even after a 5th run.

Really wanted to love this game. Bought the collector's edition and severely disapppointed. Its marketing portrayed survival horror but its gameplay is a interactive almost on rails shooter. They just copied the story of dead space but changed a few details. Extremely weak narrative. They give us hardly an backstory to characters and we are expected to care about them. Weapons requires exorbitant amounts of currency that takes up inventory space. Limited inventory with limited visits to the shop. Enemy encounters are overly scripted and predictable. When something is repetitive and predictable it stops being scary. The difficulty and length of the game is artificially padded with bullet sponging enemies. Stealth implemented in specific parts rather than being an actual mechanic or strategy for gameplay. Unskippable cutscenes. Horibble implementation of checkpoint and saving systems. Slight spoiler but.........i was concerned with having escort missions when meeting up with the support characters. The game instead has "oops youve been separated, meet up 5 mins later" this is done numerous times and its probably because they couldnt balance having "their combat system" while protecting an npc. Which begas the question how the hell the other npcs survived with less gear than you. Also please for the love god stop locking walking animations. There is a sprint function that only works in certain parts of the game. They force you to walk in certain parts to up the stakes or increase the fear factor which invalidates its use. You cant really run from battles.

@@SSJdaveynot the first time and for sure not the last. To the OP. I watched a video comparing this game do dead space and author of the video pointed out of what horror is. It is not just gore as it will just make humans numb after a while, it is the fear of the unknown and the feeling of danger. This is why sounds of necromorphs in the vents and them jumping out from them (mainly with distance between them and the player, with exception of few jump scares to change the pace) was so effective. You needed to keep them at distance with stomp being used go get resources or as finisher. In Callisto you have close combat which after a while you get use to, the jump scares which are more annoying than atmospheric.

I want to like this game, I really do, but let’s be honest, no changes can make this a good game. It doesn’t have the fundamentals of a good game. Looks amazing, but it’s a bad game with boring game mechanics. Dead space was good because you had to aim for specific points on the enemies while being under pressure from multiple enemies around you, and it felt like you could be creative in how you would make it out on top from that fight. This has nothing - holding left dodges (you don’t have to time anything) and after combos it auto aims for you to take a shot? The whole game is basically one long cutscene. It’s kind of pathetic. Not to mention that there’s only one baton combo that you’ll watch over and over again - like at least gimmick me into thinking I have choice with different combos. It’s boring, it’s bad, and it will never be good. I wish them the best of luck on their next project and hope they’ve learned a lot from this one.
