Outliver: Tribulation

Overwhelming negative review. This game won't even open for me anymore. Clearly needs some finetuning or something because ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I'm not putting up with this garbage. Avoid like the plague.

The game bombarded me with tutorials, text to read, story and boring backtracking to the point of losing me. Half an hour and I was still at the tutorial bit, despite skipping some of the texts. I'm sorry, but I don't really care about your lore or backtracking for the fifth time to find some puzzle piece after half an hour of barely any action at all. That scene with the tribe man introducing us to the trials should have been the start of the game. After that, most doors should have been unlocked, period. Keep some end-game doors and upgrade doors locked, the rest open right away. It's not terrible. I like the visuals, the animations are fine enough and the combat looks solid, but it's so boring, unfortunately.

Jagged and uneven mechanics ! Needs a lot of improvement ! Similar to Tomb Raider ! Nice otherwise !

Игра не понравилась

"Страшные Игры с Кристинкой, Леночкой и Володей Из 4-го подъезда". Довольно Непонятное Какащке. То ли Пародия на Резик, то ли Фиг пойми что. Еще одна Мусорная игра.

It's pretty boring, combat is bland and story is somewhat not really enticing

Un souls like pessimo e che non vale minimamente l'acquisto, tante cose messe insieme tutte brutte
