Now don't disregard this review just because I don't have much time on the game. When it comes to the gameplay, I think this game is wonderful, unique and just overall exciting. I found out very quickly though that the free to play model is extremely limiting and this bothers me a bit. I understand that in a sense it's meant to be a pay to play game because of that but I just feel like there's no really good reason for that. Make the game completely free to play. Let me fall in love with all of the characters and the ability to open the loot boxes more than once every 36 hours and I WILL put more money on the game than if it was a buy to play. That's just a fact. Look at league of legends. Been playing that free to play for 4 years and I probably have somewhere between 500 and 600 dollars shoved into it. I just feel like the system is very cheap and not well thought out. If you have the money and want a fun new concept then go ahead and get this game. Hell I might play a game or two here and there when I'm bored with other games. But I don't know if theres ever going to be a day where I can justify spending 30+ dollars just to experience it in it's entirety.


EDIT: They changed their payment model. Fun game. Free. Cool cosmetics. Go fall in love with it at your won pace.

No

Wow just wow. If I bought this for more than 5 dollars i'd be insanely disappointed. So let me set the scene, you're part of some crew traveling through...Space? Time? Not quite sure. Anyways you end up on this barren planet and meet a guy who saves you. Now at this point you don't know your character at all. You don't have a name...You don't ever get to see your face, and there's no dialogue options. You are just...A guy...No attachment to your character. Now after you get sent on some "Go through this perfectly linear zone and shoot things as they come at you" quests, you do some more.....But then after that you get to go to a great place called springtown. Oh boy does that sound great. Now upon entering the city, you lose everything. Your guns perma holstered, and your huds gone, including your map. Now I wouldnt of minded this so much if I was told where I was supposed to be going. "Go to the mayors office" ......where? "Idk lol" And in this town get prepared to do a 30 minute "Talk to this person. That person tells you to talk to this person, this person says to go to that person. oh they want you to go to this person." When I say 30 minutes im not exaggerating....All of which they tell you nothing about where to go. Now get this, you finally get to leave ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and just as your about to apart hoping you never have to return, you get a pop up saying "Talk to sally for a lucrative offer" WHO THE ♥♥♥♥ IS SALLY. WHY DO I KNOW ABOUT SALLY, HOW DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT ME, AND WHSDKLASJDLSAJDSA. Ok whatever ignore it. I'm assuming its a side quest. Load up the wasteland and get ready to leave...Nope. Sally is my main quest now. WOOH. Load up springtown, Sally gives you an offer to give you money for killing bandits on the roads..Ok whatever I don't care. First off let me tell you, there's nothing wrong with just....Not killing the bandits. Just driving past them and your car takes minimal damage whatever, but no now your enticed with this money. But THE MONEY FOR THE AMMO FOR YOUR VEHICLE THAT YOU NEED TO DESTROY OTHER VEHICLES COSTS MORE THAN THE AMOUNT YOU GET FOR DESTROYING THEM...... Sigh. I just choose to start ignoring them. Easy enough right? Next quest. Ok sweet I have a new sniper, I'm going to get a vantage point and pick off the people at this outpost before walking up.... "Scopes in" Huh nobody there.... "Walks up and people start coming out of doors that you can't interact with....THE GAME LITERALLY HAS A SYSTEM THAT ENEMIES DON'T SPAWN TILL YOU GET INTO THEIR CAMP. Nope. Done with this game. Not worth the pain. Please save yourself a heartache. Don't get it.

Named character after friend, he immediately died, 5/7 perfect game

Ok so first and foremost this game isn't a game. It's an experience, and I mean that in the most serious way possible. I bought this game as soon as I could after I heard that there was another game out by the maker of The stanley parable, now I didn't do much research, I jumped in completely blind. There's alot of controversy over whether it's contents are true or fabricated however I have to say that regardless, it's an amazing story. It took me by surprise and personally to a degree I believe it. I feel certain bits more than others may be a little imbelished but as a whole I'd like to believe. The fact that I believe makes me in a way unhappy with the game though. If you've played it or don't care about spoilers continue reading.

Ok so I just feel that this goes along with the whole "You cant fight fire with fire" sort of thing. The idea of posting a game about your experience and ♥♥♥♥ ups of giving exposure to somebody who didn't want it, and then exposing it to an even wider audience is beyond ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up. It felt very intrusive to play and just imagining a mind such as his and living through it and wondering what they thought about it from the little we know about them was disturbing yet I couldnt pull myself away. At this point I feel i've made little sense and probably rambled a little longer than I should of but I think it's important to get this message across

69/10 Would get baby reaped again

So obviously enough I haven't played this game very long... I dont think I need to, to tell you everything wrong with this. I was obsessed with the concept of this game before even loading it up. Upon getting into the game, the concept seems simple enough. Change the color of your environment to go through obstacles. Until getting hit by something did I have the slightest doubt of this game. There is no point to your health bar. You either get one hit or you regen full health before you get back up. Why does your health regen so fast you might ask. It doesnt. You have to sit there and wait. Everytime you accidentally get hit, you might aswell go do your taxes or take a bathroom break because you have to sit there and wait for your character to do his hour long jump back up in slow motion routine. Your hitbox is so big, you'll be hit by things you didnt even know you could. I ran into spikes before jumping off of the ledge because I assumed I'd have to fall to hit them. Silly me. Upon jumping at a wall, instead of having any other games ideals of falling down normally, you rocket down into the ground, ALOT faster than you'll ever dream of standing up in this game. Animations are crap, graphics are lack luster but I didn't mind since alot of the hand drawn art work was well done. The musics repetitive yet good for the first couple runs through it. All in all, I really really want to enjoy this game. And honestly I could probably put everything else aside if it didnt take 10 years to stand up. It gives me a solid time to reply to texts? Idk. 4/10 cool concept but needs alot of touch up

I know it doesn't say I've played long. But keep in mind I played it for a while before it's official release. This game is fantastic. Upon release it's having some issues upholding its servers which kinda sucks. But all in all it's a great game. I've reccomended it to a ton of people and still will continue to do so. Alot of people said the devs werent gonna uphold their promises but they have been so far, and I'm quite pleased. I really like this game and I didnt want to see it fall through the cracks. I think once they get their servers a bit more polished then this games gonna turn into something amazing :). However if I did have one negative thing to say about the game it's the patron system. It's a system they released during launch. Basically it's an optional subscription fee to make your life ridiculously easy. +50% xp and yadah yadah yadah. Nothing that's pay to win or anything but since the items in their store are insanely overpriced I wasn't aware they needed another way to make money. And it gives people who have money to throw around an advantage over us who dont.

I love looking at free to play games, because you occasionally find that gem of a game, that you feel the need to tell everybody about. THIS WAS THAT GAME. Now I saw it in the store and thought "Hmmm wtf is this kids game" But my curiosity of course led me to clicking on it. I was surprised by it's fantastic reviews. So I of course decided to give it a look. Upon entering this game you're thrown into door simulator 2015. At around room 30 I was hit with my first jump scare. A small cardboard cut out of a tree. Now, this doesnt seem like much until you understand I literally had to take a 30 second break, I was so panicked. Granted I'm not very good at dealing with horror but still. After finally completing the game, being chased by the most horrifying monsters with the most horrifying effects through changing terrain and a variety of different twists, I found myself nearly screaming with every new twist. This is not a kids game boys. Buckle up and prepare your body's because this game holds back nothing in it's efforts to make you jump out of your skin.

So ummm. I've played a bit of this game. Still not sure if dust 2 is the only map or not. There's other options but im not sure if those are just for show or not, haven't gotten to try them yet. I asked politely if we could change maps and got called a variety of swear words. 10/10 plz stop voting dust
