Mad Max

A bit of a mixed bag and certainly not a full-endorsement from me but I did genuinely enjoy my time with this game and was surprised to find that the story was my favorite part. It was genuinely well-written and had a surprising amount to say, with lots of endearing and interesting characters original to the game: especially my boy Chum Bucket. There's a ton of reverence for the source material here and the devs definitely made the most out of their use of the Mad Max name. However it's not without a lot of flaws, often glaringly so. Namely in the form of excessive glitches and a lack of variety. I ran into issues with quest tracking a handful of times and even had to reset several hours into my first playthrough because I was locked out of side missions due to one of these bugged quest flags. As far as I can tell it happens when you build 2 stronghold projects in one visit, as the second one will forever be built but unusable and flagged in quests as incomplete. There's also a severe lack of interesting vehicles here. For a franchise that loves it's over-the-top suped-up war rigs I was expecting more than a mix of rusty/spiky sedans, buggies, and trucks with the occasional gas truck. Even the car you build up throughout the game is fairly uninteresting and not much to look at outside of some of the sick-ass engine blocks. In that way it's closer to the earlier Mad Max movies than Fury Road. Just don't expect any Doof-Warriors here. Vehicular combat is quite fun and surprisingly unforgiving with no noticeable rubber-banding when pursuing/being pursued which I appreciated. The melee combat is also a blast for the first 15 or so hours as you're drip-fed new mechanics but does end up feeling rather shallow by the endgame without much skill expression beyond an occasional combo finisher. All-in-all it's an okay game with a great story. Certainly worth the $3 it often goes on sale for. Just stop after you beat the story and if you want some more content do the side missions and maybe clear all the regions like I did. Just don't try to 100% it because it'll glitch out and lose track of your progress along the way. Plus there's now-defunct online achievements that make the true 100% impossible anyway.

This game is woefully underrated. Very enjoyable gameplay loop in this one. Dragged a tiny bit when trying to 100% however. Still Highly recommend this title if you are a fan of the universe and or Arkham style combat. 8.5/10.

Outstanding game! An amazing level of immersion, with a very interesting map, phenomenal sound design, good graphics despite its age, fun gameplay and a very satisfying skill tree embedded with the plot. Yes, it might be slightly repetitive at points, as you go camp to camp clearing places from buzzards and crazy people alike, but rarely puts you off doing it. It's addictive and fun. I pray for a sequel.

ich liebe die mad max serie und es ist nach 11 jahren immernoch eins der besten open world survival spiele

Es un juegazo, el unico detalle es el final, se siente muy apresurado pero todo lo demas esta perfecto, sin dudas el mejor GTA de MAD MAX de la historia.

Muito bom, faltou a buzina no carro do Max e umas molotovs!
