Recente recensies door Oreoleo

Ian Malcolm: Now, you are gonna have, uh, zombies, in your, zombie video game?
John Hammond: I really do hate that game.

Truly astonishing how a decade later this is still a worse experience than the mod was in 2013.

Update: After just one week and two patches, GSC has remedied a lot of my primary issues. Visual bugs have been fixed (however you still can't down sample from above native res so keeping AA off and FSR set to native -working as a sort of DLAA equivalent- seems to result in best IQ available for now) and some particularly glaring removed props have been re-added (though there is still some censoring compared to original release). Mouse movement feels good once dialed in with correct FOV (both of which is harder than it should be due to outdated settings GUI). With the addition of controller support and Steam achievements, I hesitantly say this is now likely the best way to play SoC (without considering mod support, of course), but there's still a long way to go before this earns the "Enhanced Edition" denotation. All of the UI still needs a heavy pass, including the main menu, inventory/PDA menus, scoped rifles, character dialogues, and the on-screen mission text updates (multiple text elements overlap on screen lol). It's as though they released the game without updating these elements at all and are intended for 1280x1024 resolution.

Original Day 1 review: I've played the original countless times, including immediately prior to Stalker 2's release in late 2024 (that was without any mods, so no false comparisons here). I don't know what happened here, but this feels awful to play and looks worse. I think there is a bug with the internal resolution so everything just looks 720p up-res'ed. Heavy mouse acceleration. MSAA removed in favor of terrible MLAA. Removed language options and Soviet-themed assets. Legitimately the only actual improvement here over the original release is increased foliage draw distance. Everything else feels like a step back. What a colossal disappointment.

It's like if Alien Isolation took place in the first half of a Resident Evil game. Not sure why this got so overlooked, it's good!

I was not ready for how heavily inspired this game is by the SNES Jurassic Park.

Like the first game, I think YMMV based on how much you like the aesthetic. I'm enjoying it so far!

However, it's UE5, so the performance is actual ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

The bulk of the game is a focus on exploration similar to Breath of the Wild, but with a more meditative and minimalist approach to the gameplay. There is no combat, no fall damage, no health, no fail states. Only an uncharted world with something new to discover over every dune. The narrative is a warmly presented journey of personal growth and leaving home that blends nicely with the open structure of the game. There are terrible performance issues (of the traversal stutter, frame pacing variety) but the content of the game is strong enough to make Sable worth checking out in spite of them.

I didn't hear the Koreans say "Yankee Shankee" even once, 0/10 remaster.

This is basically the Terminator franchise's 'Alien Isolation' moment, and it got totally slept on.

Has that "wide-linear" thing going on and at its best reminds me of Crysis, Metro, Stalker, Deus Ex etc. At its worst? Fallout 4 and Call of Duty. But the good heavily outweighs the bad and Terminator fans especially will find plenty to enjoy here.

real review beep boop fart poop puke

Terrific art born from terrible pain.

Simple and dumb as hell but it gets the important parts very right. This is the guy who made Dusk, after all. Disposable gaming at its finest.
