Peripeteia

An NPC called me autistic and I immediately proved him right by running up 50 flights of stairs without even knowing if there was anything up there. Well who's laughing now with their brand new Yugoslavian M53? Peripeteia's a fun but janky game with a cool setting and lore. With how well the game's able to convey its atmosphere and aesthetic, it makes you wonder why big studios waste millions chasing realism. Missions have multiple different routes to completion and almost no guardrails. Don't feel like doing any of the NPCs' quests to progress a level? Parkour to the end or just shoot them to steal the progression item. I'm excited to see how the game progresses into its full release.

"It's just so peak" Ну у меня есть что сказать про игру. Она мне очень понравилась своей атмосферой такого советского киберпанка. Водка, чипсы, Polska strong Геймплейчик бодренький, очень приятно расстреливать врагов и игра не ведёт тебя за ручки, не даёт гайдов на всё, а говорит тебе "Учись сам". Моментами, я часами пытался понять как один квест решить и когда понял, я так радовался что смог его закрыть (один туториал я закрывал добрую часть времени, 7-9 часов где-то). Игра поощряет твою неординарность, она даёт тебе полную свободу действий. Захочешь всех избить шокером, пожалуйста. Захочешь пошумному всех убить, пожалуйста. Захочешь незаметно мимо всех пройти, пожалуйста. Музыка моё почтение, лично руки целовал за ост. Можно часами стоять под дождем, слушая как музыка доходит до своего дропа, когда ты в это время зачищаешь улицу от последнего лоха, чей лут пойдет на продажу. Игра дарит приятные эмоции и чувства. Всё ещё вспоминаю как оружейник сам себя подорвал. Лично, предъяв к игре нету. Спасибо отдельно корешу, который решил подарить эту имбу

Lots of issues keep me from loving this otherwise charming Deus-Ex-like; -Powers don't stay loaded to your hotbar when loading a save, requiring you to sometimes mid-combat hotbar some powers when loading in from a save -Poor enemy AI causes clipping, whipping, and inconsistent accuracy. Enemies sometimes ignore walls to shoot you -Lighting can be inconsistent; meter can show you in Full Light while the area is pitch dark -Quest design isn't as open-ended as it first appears -Carrying items is incredibly buggy to the point where even the tutorial android carry has been questioned in the community forums -Level and map design is incredibly hostile, with some areas requiring full minutes of walking up stairs I really hope the dev keeps working to improve this one, but for me right now this is a hard pass, especially at the price

это буквально ЛУЧШАЯ игра в которую я играл, а еще я видимо влюбился в игру, надеюсь новые уровни выйдут как можно скорее

I want to like this game; it does have potential. I know it's early access and I should've downloaded the demo before buying and I bought it as a bundle with another game. That being said, this falls into the common trope of vast as an ocean, deep as a puddle. If you read the description of the game it is very accurate. The levels do take hours to explore but that's not always a good thing. At one point, I spent 20 minutes walking on an endless bridge. I was curious to see if it ended but I was not going to spend more time doing so to be rewarded with little content. As most buildings in the first level are 25 story stair wells with maybe one room with something in it which leads to another part of an area which will lead you back to where you started. It may have a pistol and some ammo along the way which you already have. There are areas in which you can get stuck in but intentionally leave interesting things there. In one instance, there was an area where a girl apparently killed herself and you can get a gun in a fridge but you can't get back out. So unless you quicksaved beforehand, you have to start the level over or lose progress. This game gives you too much freedom, which is something I never thought I'd say. It's EXTREMELY dark. You basically always need to have nightvision enabled which drains your battery. Good thing there are always batteries around but it's just a pointless filler mechanic. Just make the game brighter. Deus Ex gives you that dark vibe without it being hard to see all the time. I understand there is a lighting mechanic but it isn't done well. There is little point in trying to sneak because it is way easier to just shoot and kill everyone you see. Melee combat is lackluster and some human enemies can die in one shot while the strange robot enemy which is incredibly loud can take several bullets as it has no weak point as far as I know. It is hard to tell the difference between friend and foe, as well. An easy tell is to just see which color your crosshair lights up, but you wouldn't really know which area is friendly or not besides by playing the game and the levels over and over and mapping it out in your head. But there is no sense to it. Why are some areas friendly while literally the next room you step in you're getting blasted. The AI is very strange too and isn't the greatest. Hard to explain but they can lose sight of you and just kind of stand there and continue shooting at where you used to be. Movement is odd and feels 'slidey'. You will end up falling off edges all the time and climbing does not feel good. The soundtrack is probably the best thing about this game. I'm no expert at writing reviews and didn't want to take too much effort in writing this. But, all in all, this game fits more of a "sandbox" game with immersive sim mechanics rather than something actually immersive. So, if you want a game to get "lost" in and just roam and figure out stuff all the time and restart and quicksave-quickload A LOT. Then, this game might be for you.
