Necromunda: Hired Gun

There are those who find their way to Necromunda as fans of 40K. Those who might find their way as general fans of shooters. And then there are those who Gain Brouzouf, the folks that are here for Streum On themselves. I'm in the latter. While I could count myself in all three camps to some degree, it was the long shadow of Streum On's legendary cult classic E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy that first put Hired Gun on my radar. It never promised to be E.Y.E 2, but the prospect of another FPS/RPG from this team was too much to pass up. And you can absolutely feel the same spirit at work in the mix of loot, cybernetic augments, and wild mystical superpowers. But the model is more focused now, trading sprawl and scope for speed and greater clarity. You aren't trapped in your cycles of guilt anymore. Just grab a bolter and get to work. On a basic level it would be fair to call Hired Gun a charmingly janky fusion of modern Doom and Titanfall. And to be clear: it is jank. But never in a way that seriously interrupts the experience. It's the endearing kind of jank where you can feel a talented team of devs pushing against the limits of time and budget. Moments of rough animation or the occasional odd design choice fade into the background when you're grappleshoting up to a junk-punk psyker to turn them into goo. Movement is fast, music is perfect, guns are plentiful and enemies even more so. Environments nail the scale of Warhammer, treading a tricky balance between vast, intricate, and surprisingly easy to navigate. But on a mechanical level, balance isn't really the name of the game. Progression isn't trying to force you to make difficult choices about your build, it's here to reward you on your path to becoming an unstoppable death machine. The game knows you're here to teleport into a group of enemies and insta-gib everyone in your line of sight. Hired Gun is a suitably absurd game for the gloriously absurd 40K setting. The likes of Space Marine or Boltgun may stand proudly as the frontrunners or unrestrained Warhammer action. But in the depths of Necromunda lies a unique, messy, wild experience waiting for those brave enough.

Игра атмосферная, отлично погружает в "ароматную" реальность подулья. Мне понравился сюжет (пару раз удивил и развеселил), хороший дизайн интерьеров и персонажей (они очень харизматичные и пафосные), приличное количество пушек и улучшений, удобный и функциональный хаб. Есть возможность перехватить баблишка на сгенерированных миссиях фракций, чтобы подкачаться и получить финальный подарок высокого тира (я достиг максимального уважения у хаоситов и генокрадов, на сюжет никак не влияет). Не понравилась боёвка- для меня слишком быстрая и сумбурная, часто бесконечные враги с примитивным поведением и аимом, экран постоянно засвечен огнем противника, при этом в суматохе надо искать дорогу дальше. Единственный путь выживать- стрелять в ответ, ну и абилки имбовые. Вот этот кипиш убивает сочный гримдарк, к сожалению.

It's a bit glitchy and missions can get repetitive. But it is a fun FPS that really does bring out the feel and look of the Necromunda setting. I enjoyed playing it and can see spending more time on this game, but I would recommend holding out for when it is on sale.

узнал о почти всех механиках только после того как пол игры прошел, начал их использовать ближе к концу игры игра довольно легкая умер всего раз и то под карту провалился тогда крч игра крутая

jank(in a bad way)

while i enjoyed it somewhat it has a few problems 1.story nonexistent until the end not much of one to begin with 2. enemy constantly spawn behind you 3.cant buy most weapons beyond a rare grade 4. even fully upgraded dog dies quickly i basically just used him as a wall hack 5. i spent most my time farming contracts there was not many options to do wouldn't recommend unless you are bored and it is on sale

Incredibly detailed hive city ganger action
