    I only recently discovered you, and I'd like to say that I really appreciate not only how extensive your reviews are, but also how well you present your praise and criticism. You don't just say "combat was bad", you explain what bothered you, etc, which gives me a better idea of how I might personally feel, based on whether or not those things are important to me. You're seriously an invaluable source of information on games for me now, and probably the only serious reviewer I consider a "must watch".

    Great review dude. Subscription EARNED. One thing of note I think you may have overlooked was the general world of the game and the swarming effect. My take on that is when you get swarmed and / or cornered is because they are robots afterall. Their job is combat mode enabled; to kill. Them swarming on you and pinning / cornering you is mission accomplished. I love that. Similar in a way to Doom Eternal, where everything is hostile including the environment. The Atomic Heart equivalent is obviously the dash and the debris / corpses environment obstacles. They are EVERYWHERE. Getting pinned felt like I wasn’t doing a sufficient job at robot housecleaning and needed to strategise further to not get swarmed and pinned. Atomic Heart is a great great game!!

    Was there Ray tracing in your pre-launch version of the game? It a was advertised months/years ago as being Ray tracing enabled but apparently yanked out of support for the feature at some point.

    Only issue I have with the game is how slow it is to upgrade your weapons and the crap you got to go through to find the formulas to weapon parts to even start upgrading. I had to grind for 6 hours total in the first outside open section part to not just get enough Nerowhatever to max the character and energy management skills, but also enough materials to get the upgrades required to just make the game a fun shooter. What's the point in being sold as a First Person Shooter if to get to the shooting you have to go through so much crap?

    As far as the translation issues go, I always considered listening in native language and using subtitles the best experience either way. Unless I'm sitting close to a large TV, I can usually read subs while still playing, and you miss out on a ton of inflection and emotion when dubbing stuff IMO. Glad the game was pretty much as I expected, solid experience missing a lot of polish.

    • @Llortnerof
      @Llortnerof Рік тому

      It really depends on how well it is done and whether they just translated or really localised properly (i.e. basically rewrote the script for the new language where needed and got real voice talent, not just joe from marketing). The latter can actually end up being better than the original if done well.
      Although a particularly bad translation can also improve a game that is otherwise middling.

      Particularly when a game is meant to be set in a certain country, as opposed to fantasy land. I got into using the local language playing Stalker, because it just felt weird hearing all these guys running around Chernobyl speaking American, and with Ukrainian language on the atmosphere went up massively. Not understanding what people are saying can help with annoying repeated background dialogue too.

      I wish this for so many other games also. It feels that many games are open world just because this has been a popular choice amongst gamers and in turn has become almost a guaranteed way to make money. I feel maybe gamers are generally suffering from open world fatigue of late though, so hopefully we’ll get more of those quality, story driven, well designed linear games in the future.

    I don't think I heard it in the crafting section so I just thought I'd add:
    Every single time you dismantle something you get 100% of the materials back. This goes from consumables/ammo right up to maxed out weapons.
    This makes it very easy to completely reallocate resources into trying out all the weapons without actually losing or risking anything!

    Thank you for this review. One thing i would like to add after playing the release version - stutters are almost gone, atleast for me on a 3070 ti, but htere are weird problems with cutscenes sometimes and they run at aroun 11 fps for no reason.
    The other thing is - play it with russian VA and whatever subtitles like you would, for example, with a japanese game - english VA is not good and it loses a lot of charm and character.

    What I like about Mortis is that his gameplays show a clear understanding of game mechanics, and good skill within the game. I'm so tired of reviewers showing clearly Easy or Normal difficulty and still complaining about how a game was too tedious or they never had to use all options available.
    I'm not saying EVERYONE should enjoy a game on hard difficulties, but I do think that as a reviewer you have an obligation to at least try, in order to get a good stress test and understanding of the game's mechanics. These reviews by Mortis give me confidence that whenever he talks about gameplay and lore he is not just talking out of his ass but actually went in and put the effort into his review. Thank you.

The only bad bug I had was that I couldn’t pick up the rarest crafting component you get from bosses, which locked me out of a few endgame upgrades and the railgun. Didn’t matter tho cause the sawblade bat is stronger than anything else
