ATOM RPG: Post-apocalyptic indie game

It is extremely niche, but to be fair, you probably wouldn't be reading this if you didn't know that already. Anyhow, it's slow, it's flawed, there is much room for improvement, and it's great. Of course the usual comparison to Fallout 1-2 is a must, I think that was more than intentional from the devs. My only problem is "money" or how you have to grind to no end to ensure you get enough of it to buy off npc and move on with the story. But that's ok, there are always console commands. It's a great game, clearly a work of love and it's absolutely worth your time.

Душная ♥♥♥♥♥

это какая-то пытка, настоящее мучение. это почти невозможно пройти на среднем уровне сложности. сюжет не сказать что замысловат и не цепляет. игра является практически копией первого и второго fallout 90х годов, о чём разработчики не скрывают. с той лишь разницей, что они взяли минусы, посчитав за плюсы, и вдобавок усилили их. так вот, я не могу пройти эту игру, несмотря на силу воли и постоянные страдания. система уровней выстроена криво, так что приходится не просто выполнять все дополнительные миссии, но и выполнять некоторые из них многократно до бесконечности, чтобы прокачать персонажа до нужного уровня. похожая проблема была в первых фоллаутах, но не до такой степени, там более-менее сбалансировано. а ведь из-за этого быстро теряется интерес к игре, теряется нить сюжета, всё превращается в рутину. далее о минусах, не надейтесь пройти её с первого раза, нужно будет начинать с самого начала несколько раз, тщательно выбирая характеристики персонажа и выбор пути в диалогах, эта фишка тоже взята из фоллаут, но как-то более выделяется. наверное, я так и не дойду до конца, хотя он уже так близок.

un verdadero juego postapocaliptico

[b][i]"Death shall be the main course today! And I AM THE CHEF!" [/i] [/b] Who in their right mind wouldn't click on a dialogue option like that? I don't know if it was a hidden gift of a semi-competent translation or if someone actually thought this would be a funny thing to say to a guy you're going to murder on the sly at the behest of a dude wearing a Soviet Union hat. Either way, I laughed out loud when I saw this. [hr][/hr] Well, it's a slightly more grounded and less satirical RPG heavily inspired by Fallout. The similarities are striking the moment you lay eyes on the interface. And then there's the combat. The way the story is told. And how you interact with the game's systems. It's practically a 1:1 copy. Or a wayward child forgotten by the Black Isle Studios. This isn't to say the game lacks identity and charm, but that all the problems you'd find in Fallout came along, just in a slightly less annoying way. You can speed some things up, at least. I think Fallout has aged particularly well in terms of intuitiveness, but I don't think anyone in their right mind would claim that the combat there is fun. And Atom doesn't go much beyond what you find there. It doesn't even seem like they tried to do anything different with that system. They just reproduced it in the same way. Even so, despite the genre's slow pace, Atom ultimately manages to achieve a deeply engaging experience with the numerous human interactions that cumulatively paint the world with complexity and make the game very immersive. The presentation is modest, but serviceable, and the atmosphere doesn't disappoint. The game even has a sense of humor. I just wish they had gone a step further and made it easier to filter out relevant NPCs in an area. Being able to talk to everyone and ask a huge list of questions to get practically useless, albeit slightly different, answers isn't good. For a slow-burning game, some sense of objectivity and focus goes a long way in making it easier for the player to get to the fun. Anyway, the game is good enough that I ended up buying it twice. If you like Fallout — especially the narrative and role-playing aspects — I definitely recommend it.

Как и писали многие, из минусов: -Много бесполезной воды в диалогах -Мало предметов снаряжения и очень редко встречается -У торговцев всегда нет денег, и ты с хламом должен выбивать на глобалке встречу с караваном как дурак -Ставлю диз из-за сюжетных квестов ибо они самые душные и скучные

An excellent, approachable isometric CRPG. It's the developer's first game, they're not native English speakers, and it shows in the writing. It's a little uneven, and sometimes just stilted enough to feel a little unnatural, but the darkly ironic tone of the game makes sure that the slight jokiness isn't jarring. Outside of the writing itself, the vibes of the post apocalyptic Eastern European setting are very well done. As an RPG, it allows and encourages specialization - I preferred playing very stealthy thieving characters with decent but not amazing combat ability, but various approaches are possible. In its combat, overall length, and leveling mechanics, it is not the most involved, deepest, or longest game, but I think it hits a sweet spot for approachability, and it will punish poor builds. A solid buy for those who enjoyed the original Fallouts, and the standalone expansion, Trudograd, built off of the setting very effectively as the devs clearly honed their craft.
