Recente recensies door Maximilia Satanovic

My only victory was sponsored by a bush, cowardice and luck.

I guess it's fine.

I seriously HATE Steam reviews sometimes.

This game is frecking EXCELLENT, goty material (♥♥♥♥♥♥ year so far so but anyway).

And then what ? 57% positives reviews. Because people are raging about the game being bad? Not at all. Because people are raging about poor optimisation, which will be fixed in less than a month for 99% of them, but the reviews will stay there to rot. It's like people leaving a 1 star review for a restaurant on Yelp because they didn't get a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ table.

(The game runs at a steady 50+fps on high + max anti aliasing on a R9 290x + i7 3770k)

I'm not even talking about some of them trying to run a AAA 2016 game on their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ toaster.

For an actual review, let's say that it's like the first Dishonored but improved in every point: the maps are much more detailed and alive, with many little secrets and hidden paths, gameplay is smoother and absolutely brilliant. The story, once again, is pretty plain but still enjoyable. Still, it's pretty short (~10 hours for the main campaign), but it's replayable (many ways to finish each mission, two different playable characters and a "no powers mode"). Long story short, if you liked the first one (like 90% of all players apparently did), know that Dishonored 2 is way better.

It's Journey - but underwater. It's cute, swimming is fluid enough, but that's all.

It's not a bad game, but it's not enough for me. Also Denuvo. Also 20€.

It's not like XCOM and bad.

Bethesda, Bethesda never changes.

The story is vain and cliché. The dialogs are empty. Sides quest are worse than ever: 90% of "Go there! Kill raiders/supermutants/Synths/random dude!". Graphics are outdated. Gameplay is sub-par-fps-ish. RPG elements seems to vanish more and more. Companions are dumber than a rock (a rock, at least, does not stay in your way when you try to flee).

But still I sank 80hours in this game because you know, stuff.
Housing stuff. Discovery stuff. Weapons crafting as well as armor is nice. The world is beautiful.

Is this game a good Fallout? No, absolutely not. A good game? Maybe, if running everywhere hoarding junk to construct a junk palace anywhere you want is your cup of tea. Or exploring without goal. Still, I had a good time so i'll recommend it since a thumb down is my only other choice.

Grab it when it'll be cheaper.

60% people are able to play the game
40% people are writing bad reviews because they don't know how to update their drivers

Trolling aside, the game is pretty much underwhelming. It's fine, explosions and stuff, as long as you can run it ofc, but nothing new except a few tweaks on the grappling hook, a wingsuit - which is really fun - and C4.

Missions and characters are WAY better than JC2. They are sometimes even funny! Unbelievable.

But, even if it's "meh" in the long course, it's still a good game. The bad reviews seems really to come from performance in most of cases, so grab it on sale and refund it if you're unlucky.

Aw yiss, mass murder and electronic music

It would be insane not to play this game at least once in a lifetime - it has its flaws (relatively short and not that much "open world-ish" in all the missions) but the art, gameplay and universe are a masterpiece. Story is okay I guess.

HATS/10

In the beginning of early access, i suggested that the devs implement some sort of sliders to allow player to customize the island size, because 20 square meters warts in the middle of the ocean was not quite everybody expected after buying the game. I actually suggested it would not be a "big deal" : the developpers laughed, saying "i must be quite new to computers" and politely asked me if i was on drugs, since their engine and tile system made it apparently impossible to change island size. I'm actually a programmer, but whatever. One month later, a modder had made it possible to quadruple the island size. Funny thing, while island size was actually a "design choice", they are apparently much bigger now. Which must be impossible right?

It's also quite funny to see that some content shown in the trailer from 2 years ago is not implemented in the game yet. Not to mention the balance and risk vs reward and all the gameplay elements.

The game is also flagged for having achievements which never worked.

All things aside, i'm surprised the game is still slowing evolving, 2 years later. Maybe it'll be worth something around 2022!
