Greedland

战斗爽，满屏幕的怪物割草，还以为玩无双，就是感觉有点光污染，其他还好，爽就完了，还要啥自行车

처음에만 재밌고 나머진 노잼 그리고 듀얼센스 더럽게 안먹힘

I got into this because I got it in a bundle and was anticipating a nice mindless Survivors-like that I could play with little effort while watching a movie in the other monitor. And I got what I asked for. But getting to 100% felt a little hollow. There are some neat ideas in the game, but I don't think they play quite like they should. Like, there's a Nier-Automata-esque mod system where you can enable and disable certain features, like turning off damage numbers or radar or even your ability to move in order to enable greater powers... But there's no reason to ever turn off those basic features. The game gives you enough capacity to equip tons of upgrades, and you'll never have to make any difficult decisions about your build. As you play more, you get even more capacity and even more mods, so there's no reason not to just equip all the strongest ones. Speaking of never needing to make difficult decisions, each run feels very homogenous. The upgrades you choose when leveling up don't matter all that much, because each run reaches a "tipping point" after a few minutes where it basically becomes impossible to lose. There are fusion items like other Survivors-likes have, where two maxed-out items can combine into a stronger one, but those are just overkill. To punctuate my point here, there's a late-game option you unlock to have the game automatically pick your items upon level-up. I liked that feature, because when I was nearing 100% completion of the game, the greatest tedium was taken up by repeatedly pressing A on the level-up menu just to choose whatever option was first. But there would be no call for a feature like that in a game where the choices matter. Another feature that highlights how boring and repetitive the runs become is the "time machine" upgrade you can buy. This just makes the game run at 3x speed so you can grind out missions faster. Again, I was grateful for this feature when I was near 100% completion, and I didn't realize until now that I liked it because it made the game end sooner. I think that speaks to a flaw that is better solved not by speeding up the game, but by making the process more enjoyable (though I acknowledge that's a lot easier said than done). To my point about runs all feeling very similar: After some meta-progression, you'll reach a point where you acquire the maximum number of upgrades in every mission you play, and then it just shifts over to infinitely-repeating minor stat upgrades (which, once again, you can toggle an option to have the game auto-select). Once you're at that point, you pretty much can't lose if you try. I've seen some reviews say the game is "too easy" and I don't know if I would say the same thing. Sometimes it could be hard to get a run going, because certain levels have enemies that run straight at you, faster than you're able to move, and then explode, 1-shotting you. You're given a dash with a cooldown, but sometimes you dash away from one of those enemies, and a second one spawns on the other side of the screen, meaning there's nothing you could have done. But if you successfully gamble on those dashes enough times, you're pretty much always going to win. I wouldn't ever complain about a game being "too easy" because I enjoy lots of games where there is no lose state. But I heard this idea in a (board)game design video recently that said "The game should end before the fun ends." This game persists just a bit too long after running out of new things to show you. There's a "discovery" period when starting this game where it's fun to try out new weapons and abilities as they unlock, but the progression on both the large scale and the small scale is very linear, and a bit more time-consuming than it ought to be, in my opinion.

刷刷刷，爽就完了。俯视角操作也很简单，割草很解压。满意。

一个割草游戏，但build搭配起来挺有意思了。机甲、主武器、辅助装备、还有各种芯片，组合起来搭配太多。我研究出好几套有趣流派，每次升级选技能都像在做策略题，看着自己一点点把机甲养成移动炮台，非常有成就感。

К сожалению, оптимизация под Стим дек паршивая. Лагает даже когда всё графические настройки до минимума опустил. А при авто-призыве мехи просто караул - игра превращается в слайд-шоу и управлять персонажем невозможно. В остальном средняя игрушка, сойдёт для ненапряжного пассивного геймплея. Билдостроение слабенькое, особенно когда играл в подобные игры, где есть механика выпадения лута и тебе выпадает какая-нибудь легендарка, что полностью меняет твою прокачку, а здесь прокачка прямая и простая. Ах да, питбоссы просто брёвна с одним скилом, после использования которого у меня они почему-то останавливаются на месте без движения.
