@darkriversaben9163 Год назад

This game remind me of Scurge Hive. Still it not too hard. As a shooter is not too bad. I ignored the melee. The movement is messy at time(constant character freeze or stuck on a rock, really a issue if you are playing on hardest difficult). With its problems, I stay enjoyed it. I like that it is short and a easy platinum.

@pavlotverdokhlib7627 Год назад

Pre-order was 40% off, so I bought on the strength of the demo. Looking forward to playing through it starting tomorrow. The story gave me a real System Shock 2 vibe, curious to see how that holds up for the whole game.

Isn't System Shock getting a remake though?

@pavlotverdokhlib7627 Год назад

@@deathsdoor07 It is, but that doesn't mean a game that has some of the same ideas (humans coming into contact with alien power and not faring particularly well) shouldn't exist. Especially when they try something new in terms of mechanics.

@iDEATH Год назад

I thought the demo showed promise, so I'll probably check it out eventually. I'm always wanting to see these sorts of single player, 3rd person shooter exploration games with a mystery kind of story, and sci-fi is a big plus. Sometimes I dream about a big budget open world game like that.

@jscriber100 Год назад

Even if it doesn't get a sequel, its a big stepping stone. I think the main issue is the protagonist being hard to connect with.

@wr5488 Год назад

Returnal started kinda annoying but by that final hug in the hospital it became one of my top 5 games of all time. BEAUTIFUL story. Don’t know what the writers were on but my god the way it’s so mysterious then makes sense then is mysterious then makes TOO much sense as you start connecting things then just gets really, really personal and dark and sad before a little glimmer of hope. I LOVE that the alien godly cosmic monster was… nice. Like an actual helpful compassionate cosmic horror. Selene on the other hand… whoooo boy what a well written character. She’s so badass, but by the end you almost dislike her once you piece the plot together. Such a well written game! Didn’t expect an 11/10 story from a game like thst.

@TheZanzibarMan Год назад

@loneronin6813 Год назад

I don't know about anyone else, but I've had issues with the controls and also whether or not the enemies take damage when they should. Maybe it's just a glitch or something, but in my experience, I can shoot an enemy in its weak spot dead-on, and it refuses to register the effect that it should have on the enemy. For example, what I can only describe as the alpha of the rock gorillas is supposed to freeze and slow down as a result so I can hit its weak spot with the fire weapon, but one or both of those uses of ammunition don't affect the enemy when they should. It also messes up when I try to dodge roll where I will hit the dodge button and it will either not work or it will roll but I will still take damage when I shouldn't have. I like the idea of combining of weapons to solve unique problems and take down certain enemies, but it only seems to work in theory due to these glitch experiences I'm having happen so consistently. I can't speak to anyone else's experiences, but this game was a waste for me.

@MrMightyZ 2 месяца назад

I’ve finally played The Adventures Of Professor Poopy Pants; Dr Diaper Diaries. One brave scientist’s desperate journey across an alien landscape, battling savage aliens with loaded pants and a dwindling hope of ever finding fresh sanitary napkins again. When I ran up against hard rock but the slushing sounds of her footfalls remained, I suddenly realised it wasn’t her shoes in the mud making that sound and all at once I understood the need for her stoic expression and why her trousers were so huge and lumpen. A gruelling game, not for the weak.

@reamoinmcdonachadh9519 Год назад

This game has (for me) the same problem(s) so many looter shooters and action/adventure games have had this last 10/15 years or so, and that is the penchant for these games to have characters that appear little more than animated poseable action figures, like the toys many of us played with as kids, acting out our fav scenes from certain movies or TV Shows the action figures were the merch for. Also too many many of these games have either all the Live Service bollocks attached (even if they 'claim' its not a Live Service title) or through over exposure, the now wearying tropes of the combat style/mechanics of a Souls-Like , or Souls-Borne game. There is no excuse (these days, graphics being what they are) for a bad looking game, even less for bad gameplay or game mechanics, given the plethora of styles, ideas, hooks and gimmicks out there that have been done and tried before. What's missing (on the whole) is great, even compelling STORY, as well as Originality in story,........too many go for the safe option, and THAT makes for 'SAMENESS' across the board, no matter the visuals, or the gameplay.

kind of seems like the dev left certain things unpolished because they were "good enough" whether or not that's due to time/financial constraints, or lack of effort, I guess I don't know.
