Looks cool. Released near Silksong and lost all mendia buzz. Will buy when it's 30 or cheaper like I did Callisto, which I enjoyed. I enjoy mediocre TPS action horror games with nice graphics. Up next, Silent Hill F... When it's also on sale.

It is very mediocre, or not even that
I've been trying it but it's almost like a tech demo mini game. Kinda impressive how there's NOTHING about it. The character walks, aims his peashooter, you fight the same tentacle monster copypasted around and that's it, that's the gameplay. There's no atmosphere, tension, story or gameplay to speak of. Something about traveling back in time which you can guess, it's gonna end on some contrived time loop or some shit.

And I mean impressive that, it's just so devoid of anything in it. Simple games can be enticing if they play their puzzles or ambience right, but it's almost a walking simulator without the charm of walking simulators, and some annoying 2 hit game overs that don't scare, but snooze you.

Meanwhile Silksong costs like 20 dollars only.

no, they don't but you can also pretty easily tell the shittalk about a good game they want to dunk on to feel smart, and this.

bad games don't interest them. no ones gonna be making a cronos shitpost thread. no ones ever gonna be rambling about how bloober made a bad game because its not good enough to live rent free in their heads. the reactions youre getting are out of kneejerk disinterest, not contrarianism.

They kinda tried but forgot that dead space had very satisfying combat and more than 2 enemy types.

I think it was a good game, the combat was pretty lame and easy but overall solid experience. Also liked the plot, even if the reveals were very obvious.

>>720227684
>it's gonna end on some contrived time loop or some shit.
Kek, somehow you hit the nail on the head.
Both endings you get are timeloops and they're also implied to both happen.

In the first one you let the guy you were looking for and this random bitch go, and while they timetravel he loses his memories and this sets the events of the entire game

The second one is just the random bitch traveling back in time further by herself and being patient zero of the infection

Both are underwhelming and the entire setting is wasted on Bloober jerking themself off on recreating their soviet reality, not even any cool sci-fi settings, the entire design work peaks with the protagonist and the sharply falls off with the other suit you see. What a mess

Even more fun is HDR in the game is broken - the max luminance value is fucked so you can't even get proper highlights if you mash in your screen peak value.

>really low resources all the time?
Its like RE4 balance system but backwards retarded.
You pump your last bullet into an enemy and it just drops you 6 more, but if you run out 1 bullet early, youre fucked.

Like that other anon said, it feels like a strange tech demo, not really ballanced or polished at all.
No wonder the publisher ran away.

I lost interest when they revealed a female protagonist, can't do that with a suit of armour that cool, doubly so when the proportions are so obviously masculine.

It really makes me mad that is so bland, i mean, if it was bad you would at least drop it and say "yeah it's gonna get Callisto Protocol'd" but it's lame as in nobody will give a fuck about this game ever again, not even for the rage or discussion. Makes me uncomfortable at how utterly mediocre it is. I would expect these kind of blandness from an AI generated game, certainly something that is going to happen, yet this was crafted by human hands, meticulously not giving a fuck about excitement. It's not a survival horror really because there's only one type of monster, there are no variations in the gameplay and the ambience is just vodka city and penishead suit. And that's the pitch of it, that's the whole thing.

Then some comments like the ones above "praising" it makes me wonder if there's actually an astroturf campaign now around certain mainstream releases of products. Mainstream media and advertising is not to be trusted and people know this, also expensive as fuck. Paying an indian scammer to write "yes sir game very good must buye" must be cheaper than even AI bots. Certain new movies and TV shows are acting up like this with mediocre products.

As for Bloober I suspect it's a laundering scheme or financed by the goverment. They're painfully meh. Like said before, not abysmally bad but just very very bland. Suspiciously uninspiredly bland. Almost a craft in blandness: UEngine usage, copying other games but with 1/5th of the sauce, weak stories, weak UEngine implementation, mediocre performance, mediocre sales, etc. They're known because they strike such a blandness it's like white bread. Can't even hate them, but since everything was gifted away in the Epic Store a lot of people has at least heard of Layers of Fear and such.
>>
>>720255801
Their biggest score to get noticed was to get SH2 Remake out, and that was just as mediocre as they always do, just shitting on a legacy game and censoring the very few but important parts of the story. Konami must've been laundering money with that one and maybe turn a profit like Uwe Boll did. Their only big score is to ride on the shoulders of one of the best videogames ever made... and shit on them.

I have seen /v/ praise literal RPGMaker shovelware because it has porn or rape in it whilst shitting on actually great games because they're viewed too positively on Steam and thusly any discussion of them here MUST be paid shills or bots.
