[REC] Desolation

분위기는 정말 무서웠어요!!!! 근데 길찾기가 조금 어려움 길치는 힘드렁

[REC] Desolation ist sehr kurz und ich würde es eher im Sale holen. Es hat ne kleine Story, ist viel zu dunkel und nix macht richtig Sinn xD Ich mag sowas zwischendurch, darum Daumen hoch^^

Ich finde es mutig und faszinierend, wie Entwickler mit einer neuen Engine auf "ältere Technologien zurückgreifen". Was ich damit sagen möchte - mit der VideoCam nicht auf 16:9 und der alten Schwarz-Weiß-Nachtsichtbild und dabei auf Lost-Footage zu gehen, kombiniert mit einigen, schönen Rätseln und wenigen, coolen Jumpscares, habt ihr das Game gut übertroffen. Atmosphäre und Story waren geil. Jedoch hätte ich mir gewünscht, dass im Bereich Gameplay ein wenig mehr Abwechslung gäbe. Aber trotzdem gut! Würde dem Spiel eine Note 2 (In Sterne ausgedrückt: 4/5 Sterne) geben. :) Zu Empfehlen? Absolut! :)

7/10

I love to support indie game devs especially in the horror genre but this was honestly one of the worst indie games I have ever played. I don't think its worth spending $4 on to try. The game is only about 25 minutes long and the last 95% you will spend in a grainy black and white view with limited fov. The game doesn't provide much direction at all and you can end up wandering around searching the parameters over and over to figure out where to walk to next. The story wasn't that good either. This game felt like like a 100% effort to make a quick asset flip. The Unsettling Discovery achievement wouldn't poop for me either and I found and read all 5 pieces of paper/notes for it. Buy this game at your own risk, beat it in 25 minutes then request a refund because you wont ever want to play it again. You can watch my play through here https://youtu.be/mRfm5BGiezs

I don't have many arguments to consider giving it a positive review. And my opininon is not based on the game length, small scope or the visible low budget. It is rather the result of experiencing a project which is the effect of visible minimalism. The idea behind it is quite cool and I could very well see it done more solidly. However, there are two layers here, the story and the gameplay, which are not coordinated with one another. While walking SLOWLY around the ruined building we encounter the most cliché, cheap types of scares you could possibly think of. None of them is consequently tied to the final encounter. While there are many translation options, I suppose most of them are done by AI or automatic translator, because its quality is really poor. On top of it all, the performance is horrible. For such a small project it is straight up baffling that you would require the newest RTX 4xxx or 5xxx in order for it to run smoothly. This is the final argument for a thesis, that being able to generate a pleasing to the eye scenery in an engine like UE5 shouldn't be the sole reason for creating a whole game project around it. It requires a bit more of planning ahead. Let's hope that at least some of the technical issues get resolved in the future. I might reconsider changing the opinion after that.
