Atomfall

I had a great time! My first play session was about 2 hours. I was lost, confused, and not interested. I didn't touch the game for many months. I resumed a few days ago, got completely engrossed, and played 10 hours straight. I finished the game today (28h), completed all side quests, and had a great time. The quest system is certainly something to get used to, but the lead system is much better than the usual marker you blindly follow. The leads are not obtuse or anything; I was rarely lost, just enough for enjoying the exploration. And there's way more to explore than meets the eye. Reviewers have mentioned ammunition and skill points scarcity, but that wasn't my experience at all. I finished the game with my ammunition maxed out and unused skill points. Don't worry too much about these; there are plenty around for you to have fun. You need to explore a bit. The game looks good, and sometimes very good. It's too bad it's not using DLSS; going back to older methods of antialiasing is truly disgusting. Anyway, I'm gonna have a look at the DLCs now.

There is a lot to love about this game but it feels incomplete for an RPG. You can tell Rebellion are more used to first person shooters as the RPG elements are really scaled down, the inventory is woefully inadequate in size, you can't craft arrows but you can make bombs, there is no armour or alternative outfit options for your character. Also the fast travel system is an after thought and, while it is cool the first time, having to hold x twice to enter it and then select your destination, then there is a whole animation and then you have to exit. It plays really well as a stealth open world game but falls a bit short from the depth I want from my RPGs. As I said, though, I really like it, the use of unlockable skills instead of levelling up means you don't waste time farming enemies and can focus on the game itself, the use of heart rate for sprinting is great and makes it more immersive and, when you start getting decent weapons and unlocking more skills, combat isn't overwhelming. It is also a shame that Rebellion have ended support as they added some good features, but it would be nice to know the game is still evolving. It is definitely worth playing to offer something different from Fallout but get the complete edition, it is worth it.

This is an underated gem

Загалом гра топчик . Класна атмосфера не перегружена зайвими механіками. Окремий + це НПС. Коли ти цілишся в них зі зброї не біжуть на пролом а шукають укриття , якщо ти сидиш в укритті викурюють тебе молотовими , отруйними бомбами тощо . Гра не для казуалів тут темрява це спраді темрява де без ліхтаря ти побачиш від противника лише спалах пострілу в тебе . Сюжет і геймплей цікавий і дає тобі повну свободу куди йти що робити , проходити по стелсу чи зачищати абсолютно всіх і тобі за це ніяких сюжетних штрафів як в Dishohonred.

Хорошая игра. Игра что-то между Сталкером, Фаллаутом и Скайримом. Минусов практически нет. Из минусов не понятно то, что из них мейн квесты, а что из них побочные, но это проходит по пути прохождения игры. Ещё из минусов можно выделить беготню, но беготня в принципе умеренная за счёт "Развязки" через которую можно сокращать время пути до нужной точки. И ещё не большая придирка в том, что в этой игре не хватает технологий по типу DLSS или AMD Fidelity, просто для того чтоб везде +- был одинаковый фпс (на моей системе на максимальных настройках на открытой местности было в среднем 60-65 фпс, в помещениях и лабораториях 100+ и выше, но для этого нужен DLSS или AMD Fidelity, чтобы не резало глаза из-за разницы в фпс на открытой местности и лабораториями. Если был-бы DLSS или AMD Fidelity поставил бы на 1 балл выше. Игра стоит того чтобы пройти, особенно для тех кто фанат Фаллаута и Сталкера. 8/10

This one hits the spot for me even though it is kind of deficient in a few ways. It kind of feels like the opposite of a bloated open world--small but tight zones with plenty to find and discover with great atmosphere. It also kind of feels like it's made of entirely of side quests, but that doesn't bother me. The combat is only acceptable, and barely so. The sneaking is worthless except for trying to avoid clusters of enemies while going from A to B. I'd avoid melee too. Don't go in expecting Fallout, Stalker, or Bioshock. This is much more comparable to Amnesia: the Bunker, except science fiction instead of horror, much more resource generous, and less obtuse about how to progress (also not trying to imply there is any sort of persistent stalker enemy either). It just drops you in with a big picture goal and then leaves it to you to figure out how to go about it.

Great game, with original storyline. Limited resources enhance the game play. Decision making really changes the outcome of the game.
