Is anybody still playing this? I was surprised to see someone on Twitch playing the other day.
I gave it up after a couple of weeks. I could see it being kind of fun in a group but none of my friends were playing it.
That’s a big thing for sure. I had a lot of fun with Deep Rock Galactic, but would never have tried it if my friend group hadn’t wanted to play.
I like it quite a bit. Not dishonored or prey level good, but it’s fun, it’s got cool setpieces, I liked the town. I enjoyed the loot system even though it’s simple. Satisfying shooting. Very few bugs, for me. The AI is dumb but I found that easy to ignore with this game, and I’d still die sometimes.
It’s not a “great” game but is a good one, for me. It’s like I played a completely different game than all the reviewers and reddit commenters. shrug
That’s completely fair! You’re allowed to like it. :) The internet’s opinion doesn’t have to be yours. Loll.
I think that’s the point of the article. Was it a great game? No. But apparently you’re not the only person that’s getting some enjoyment out of it. :)
I was really looking forward to seeing this up until the first trailer. When that thing hit I knew they had missed the mark. By how much? I can’t read the future or people’s mind but the company I was with at the time was watching the game closely and expected a lot more out of it.
Somewhere in development they lost their way and somewhere they stopped being even immersive sim adjacent.
I played it at launch, but I found it boring and the low framerate didn’t help; the gameplay couldn’t make up for the lack of stuff to do.
I plan on revisiting after they have time to patch it, maybe in 6 months or so. The game sounded interesting and I’ve liked other Arkane games, but there were too many problems at the same time for me to enjoy this one.
Didn’t even care when the first teaser dropped.
