ROUTINE

I want to give my genuine opinion on this game, Its a 8.7/10 Spoilers bellow: Now getting into this game felt great, the general mechanics where really interesting and gave the feel you have much more control over your character. The sound design of this game was easily 10/10 and i would say was better than most triple A games. This game is very close to alien isolation in its feel, from tech to horror, and gave a very satisfying gameplay. I think this is my favorite horror game of recent history. Now onto my criticisms, this game was awesome but it lacked in a few areas. Now the enemies, area design, and general movements was massively awesome, it gave a constant vibe to it making it scary when nothing was around and made you feel scared, but on the other hand the areas tended to be incredibly dark and the only form of flashlight was gained a few hours into the game, but it also was hard to use since you had to use the little screen that had a ton of static. and the annoying thing is your character has a flashlight they just don't use it much and only in scripted sections. Now the area design was awesome but it left a bit of a unsatisfying itch for something more, it tended to have moments where nothing happened or made you run to each end mutable times with nothing between giving off some empty space vibes. There was definite structure for a more horror central looping and running but it wasn't used very often. Moving to the main enemies, the robots and the entity A. First the robots where pretty cool and generally felt like they had some weight to them, but they generally where pretty dumb, they tend to other see you from a mile away or lose sight of you, there seems to be no defined path they take and sometimes they activate even when your not seen. There forgiving but a little to dumb for the liking. Now for the entity, this guy is weird, a very awesome design and movement but the fact is he has weird abilities, hell mostly stock you around but will walk off sometimes, and the worst part is he can be invisible, tending to lead to moments where you cant see him until he grabs you. It is mentioned in one paper you can use your scanner to reveal him but i never managed to do so, usually waiting until he would appear normally. Shifting on this there where moments where something scary would happen, sometimes if you where hiding and waiting for him to get out of the way suddenly he would stop making sounds and then scary music would play, in these moments if you looked around outside the hiding spot he would be nearby completely crouched in a corner staring, and then he would rush you. Now this was scary but the fact is it was random on how or when he did this and he would sometime get to these locations even if you where staring at the entrance, it made the whole part of waiting for him to leave enough and not letting him sit out of sight for to long before he did that. I actually only died to him twice both on purpose, when he was invisible and i was trying to figure out how to get him to come out, I've noticed once when hiding hell stop and then his entire body drops to the ground disappearing and hell appear somewhere else, this mechanic is never explained which i thought was confusing. Moving onto the puzzles, i think the puzzles are a tad hard but not to overly hard in the way, there was 5 main puzzles in this game with a few smaller ones scattered and personally i think 2 out of the 5 where unnecessarily hard, one with a locker, and another with bathroom password, both are connected but generally i would have to say nothing is explained outside the one message that the dude who made them liked puzzles, the time it took me to figure out these organically was way to long and it was by pure luck i feel like, there's almost no say on how to do it and its one of the few moments in the game you have to flip one of the papers to get a code list to help with it even though its backwards and you have to type in the code that way. And you have to do all this while dodging the monster in the area which he gives no time for. I think parting on this game trying to be more strategic in the long run but ending up giving a unfair situations, there's lots of moments you just sit under a desk or table for like 5 minutes since the monster tends to puppy guard the locations a lot, and the fact is i think how he hunts could be greatly improved, i recorded a video for YouTube on this if you want to hear my thoughts more on it. But for all my whining and criticizes i think this game was incredibly good and i loved it!

It's a very good game that has amazing graphics. The puzzles (chapter 4) can get sluggish but otherwise the game is very fun and creative. I love the C.A.T

I cannot physically recommend this game enough if you're a horror fan. That goes double if you like scifi and retrofuturism aesthetics. Fantastic experience. The sound design and immersion are 10/10.

Раньше тут был негативный отзыв, но я передумал, игра неплоха, но душная

A visually beautiful and immersive horror game. My only complaint would be that the story felt a bit short for how incredibly detailed and put together the game felt.

Excellent, so much attention to detail, great atmosphere. The visual effects, tech art and post-processing people on this project are absolute mavens. The sound design is stellar, it's hard not to feel acoustically teleported into the game world, everything feeling alive.

great... tbh: a little too long for me, even though it took me 7 hours, but there was one part i found way too tedious and i spent way too much time so that it actually annoyed me... so 5 hours game id say would been perfect... but yeah, great ride, great visuals, great atmosphere...

One of the better horror games of the past decade
