Deathloop

Heh, yeah I just died to Fia in my last run just before. Will definitely need to have a sniff around and see about an easier route.

Damn, sounds like I'll need to have a better mooch around Fias place

I've fucked off down the rabbit hole of the Power Station side quest for now. There's so much shit to do, it's quite overwhelming.

User Worlds does think that yes. So does ACG and his reviews are usually spot on, unbiased.

Well look, it’s not shit, there’s a long long way to go and I have all weekend, so I’m looking forward to that, but it’s not 10/10 masterpiece BS.

Yeah I've properly got into it this evening too. Once you get a few powers under your belt and start flowing through the levels as intended it's completely transformative. It definitely does feel a little bit too easy though. I might switch public invasions on tomorrow to try and add a bit of danger to my runs.

My enthusiasm is waning slightly now. I still enjoy it, but I'm not finding a decent amount of time to get stuck into it, so I'm basically making absolutely no progress.

I fancy this but are the first person depth of field control like Dishonored2? Didn't get on with that game for that reason


Field of view i mean.

Nopes

Hah, this is ace. I'm only about 2 loops in, but I like it already

Quite unique too.

I'm glad someone else has mentioned this. In my 10 attempts at playing as Julianna, it felt like something wasn't quite right. I was missing jumps and definitely missing shots I shouldn't have. Part of it is just me getting used to playing as her when I haven't even got any powers for Colt in the single player yet so I accept that. But a huge chunk of it is down to lag. There were about 3 matches where it was just literally unplayable. I was hoping it wasn't just an issue with me, but sounds like that might be the case for most people? Hope it gets sorted, because it's one of the key aspects they were marketing. At least you get some points for even playing and dying as Juliana which goes towards unlocking some cool outfits.

I just…. sigh…. there’s something about this game that I can’t get on with. To the point where it’s either giving me a metaphorical headache or feel sick.

The lightweight controls and PS3 character animations are also so average.

This is my only regret having a digital PS5. I need to think of this like I’ve bought a £45 pair of jeans that I’ll barely wear. It’s ok, it happens. FUCK.

I also must conclude that I don’t like single player FPS games in tight/small areas. Cyberpunk was decent because of the epic size, but this is small and cramped.

It’s also annoying to die because of stupid things, like getting stuck in toxins, falling or a crappy gunfight where everyone has suddenly been alerted to you randomly.

There’s so much to read too. I admire you guys for being ok with this; you remind me of the top-of-the-class guys back in school days that loved text-based games with loads of nerdy shit. I CBA with that, it’s just too much here. I’m pissed off, that’s all. Don’t like wasting money.

I've not played enough yet to give my thoughts, but I've instantly loved the music, which bizarrely, can carry me through games with faults.

The above two criticisms sound like it's not the game for you guys. That's how I'd describe something like sekiro, where I just bounced off it harshly and got rid.

There's something about this though, for me at least, where it's clicking.

That music though!

I think it's a pretty great game personally but I also can't really argue with any of the main bugbears people seem to have with it. It's nowhere near perfect even on a fundamental level so I do find the universal adoration in terms of reviews extremely fishy. But that side of things clearly is what it is at this point so it's best off ignored unless you want your head to hurt.
