Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.44/day in the week to Aug 4 → 31.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

게임상에 보이는 크로스헤어랑 실제 총알이 날아가는 경로가 달라서 암 걸릴 것 같음. 차라리 에일리언 슈터나 다시 하는 게 나을 듯....
This game is fun, the weapon loadouts and armor buildouts arent quite clear sometimes though. Eventually you'll hit a wall and will need to take a long break for it to enjoy it. If you liked the old shadowrun game on snes or that type of game youll like this too.
I wanted to give the game a chance because it looks pretty fun and interesting. However, it just feels boring and uninspired? I feel like I'm a regular human living in the 40k universe. Like it's so apocalyptic and dirty that it kinda turns me away. Not to mention the camera cannot be adjusted at all so I feel like I gotta sit 40 feet away from my monitor because I'm so zoomed in, and sometimes the camera auto zooms on specific things the game thinks you should look at and I have to move in a direction i literally cannot see because I cant move the camera myself. It as a whole feels clunky. However it was kinda interesting for the gameplay I did get out of it, but I cant see myself ever returning to the game because the clunky camera and aggressive cyberpunk apocalypse setting.
Langweilige Ballerbude mit schönem Artdesign und schlechter Grafik PRO - Setting ist schön und abwechslungsreich - Tolles Cyberpunk Artdesign CONTRA - langweiliges eintöniges Kampfsystem - hinter schöner Cyberpunk Welt verbirgt sich schlechte Grafik - motiviert nicht mehr zu entdecken 60,98%/100%
除了优化不是太好容易死机黑屏之外,其他各方面都是非常棒的。
best game with your mates
I want to love this game. The cyberpunk atmosphere is excellent, the game loop is fun (kind of Diablo but with cybernetics & guns), and the visuals are very good and hold up extremely well considering how long ago it was released. Combat is a bit clunky, but it works. Missions are easy to follow and there's plenty of info in the game to help new players get familiar with the game dynamics. But the overwhelming issue with this game is the frustrating instability. There's countless threads all talking about the same problems, with little to zero response from the developers. It's as if they just bagged it up and shipped it - then washed their hands of any future responsibility. If the game could run for more than an hour without freeze-locking, I would wholeheartedly recommend it, but in its current form it is an absolute chore to get working and remain stable for a play session more than an hour long. Get it on a HUGE discount if you don't mind wrestling with settings, both in Windows and the game, just to make it playable. and be prepared to have to turn down a lot of the appealing settings (such as RTX lighting, shadows and reflections) as well as all your Windows overlays - and run it in DX11 mode. However, if you're wanting an out-of-the-box stable gaming experience, this is most definitely not going to be up your street. Sorry dev's. You need to do better.
