![I tried 'Atomic Heart' after the patches and new DLC... [DLC REVIEW]](/img/n.gif)
Can I just say how pleased I was to see a proper crouch and jumping mechanic in a FPS, there are quite a few times when you have to jump around like in Half life and you must be accurate in your jump timing or you will fall. It really feels good when you nail them jumps and complete a section, I noticed a few reviewers hating this mechanic, one called them frustrating FPS platformer levels...well all I can say to that it you play too many shitty AAA games where jumping is as simple as turning up and pressing a button :) This is proper old school jumping and it's great.
Yeah shilling for Russian goverment who are doing a genocide in Ukraine, not a great move Mack, Unsubbing for a while.
@@worstcasescenario3689bye bye, do not let the door hit your face on the way out. Go virtue signal in your toilet, it will smell better. 🤪 (by the way orcs and elves do not exist). You need medication.
Definitely have to pick this up was on the fence about it but after your review it's a buy from me, quick side note are you doing a review of returnal mack pls
Didn't you have a go at Doom Eternal for the platforming?
You already know the real reason shill up is moaning is because of muh russia and wants to fit into the gang
I actually felt more like a Jedi in this than I did in SW fallen Order lol
That says something lmao
Yeah. Fallen Order does great at looking like Star Wars. And even the writing and story feels decently like Star Wars (certainly magnitudes more than the Disney films which are glorified and terrible fan fiction writing). But it's gameplay is ripped pure from Sekiro (while making it easier).
I love Sekiro's combat. And I liked FO overall. But it never really creates a combat system that is uniquely Jedi-like. It's Sekiro-lite with a Star Wars skin. And the problem with FO's success is we're probably increasingly unlikely to ever see a proper sequel to Jedi Outcast/Academy. Games that had an original combat system that really did feel specifically like Jedi combat as much as any game has ever accomplished.
I thought you are a sith?!?
You're not a jedi in falllen order, lol. Cal's master was killed when he was a little boy. Then we went into hiding. He was only a paddy and never a fully trained jedi.
Not related to this, but I’m putting it here so that you see it. Any chance you could review “The Pale Beyond” when it comes out later this week. Please and thank you
'Its like PREY' That's all I needed to hear from Mack.
Yeah it brought memories of Prey and HL tbh. It's great being in a huge linear building infested with enemies grabbing loot, staying alive and crafting better weapons, we need way more of these games.
@@WorthABuyreviews One thing this game has an up on PREY is that there is more combat overall. Only criticism I had on Prey was that it lacked a bit of that. I wish they had sprinkled in more enemies and more ammo to compensate for it.
Which Prey?
@@tomigun5180 2017 I'm guessing
@@tomigun5180 Prey 2017 by Bethesda. One of the best games ever made. Enjoy.
Game has been in development hell for over 5 years. Happy to see it actually release and look like a solid game
Na, They were waiting for the war to break out so they could use the controversy to boost PR and sales....
Funny how PREY had a similar path as well.
It looks like a flawed gift to Prey fans. Considering the shit reception to that game, I'm surprised to see anything like this but I'm glad it exists.
It's not that good not worth the full price. Glad it's on gamepass
Some of the shill reviewers are solely concentrating on the negatives regarding this game, glitches etc. Their anti-Russian bias is staggering, not to mention racist! Fucking hypocrites who unironically gave the likes of God Of Bore Cuckcock and Horizon Diverity Forbidden 🚫 Gameplay straight tens.
I love this channel. Up The North and Viva la Mack 😃
Giving Mack a key is a damn good sign that the devs are confident in their game haha. Looks good; will definitely check it out.
You have to be REALLY sure in your game, or stay away from this guy. ))
yeah will pirate it in a year when they patch everything
He was under an NDA lmao, they only gave him a key because they forced him to say positive things.
@@ThatZenoGuy Do you even know what NDA is? lmao indeed, Mack was forced? He'd say it literally in the first line, that devs were trying to bribe him with a key.
@@theverylastuser
Cope
You know this is the good shit if Mack is impressed with it.
I mean he did thumb up CoD BO4 so I wouldn't believe everything he says.
Yeah muted praise and forgiving xray vision/no FOV slider means a lot more from mack than a 10/10 from gamespot or ign.
Take it with a grain of salt, he was given a key for it so the 8/10 is a bit generous. If he paid for this it would have been a 7 max.
@Axton J Cranston he still absolutely shits on games he receives keys for when they suck, watch more of his vids.
@@axtonjcranston1064 Glad you just joined the channel, but watch his other reviews, if the game is shit he will shred it, free key or not.
You mean the people in charge aren't a group of checkbox's?
Late appreciation of your comment of the day.
It’s refreshing to see actually good dialogue and comedy especially from a game. Hearing that the villains are solid is a relief too
A lot of reviewers called the dialogue bad but its just nostalgic OTT FPS action hero trash talk and it gives me huge Duke Nukem vibes
Writing is actually shit, no idea what you're hearing
^ Don't know what shit reviewers you follow, but every one I watch say Forspoken is cringe... and this game to a lesser extent
@@rePAULsion The only complaint I have so far is that the dialogue has the nonstop problem, bleeding into combat and even cutting itself off with different conversations. It’s all a lot to take in. I haven’t played the game myself ofc, but I will still give it a shot
@Orc Peon that's just simply not true lmao no one was saying Forspoken had good dialogue. Don't make shit up
Hacks who praised day 1 Cyberpunk give it a 6/10. You give it an 8/10. I know who I'm trusting.
yesssirr
They rated it low because it's Russian
I've never heard of this channel but I watched this review, got the game, and he was right. I just subbed lol.
Big professional reviewers like IGN are paid/bribed by big companies. There are also bandwagoners like Angry Joe.
@@bdleo300 IGN rated it well....
You get my like just for including the XRay Vision song. Thank you for the review Mack ! I will most definitely be buying this ! Also, seeing a character such as Nora in a game brings tears to my eyes and reminds me of better days where we didn't have to constantly be mindful of PC shit and games were about having fun, even AAA ones.
Amen. So sad though that these words are true.
Yeah man it's not something you see these days unfortunately (Nora like characters)
How the hell does an FPS game in 2023 not have a FOV slider?
FOV sliders must have been part of the sanctions lol
Got a bit nauseated just watching this video. I'm sure it is patchable though.
I have no idea, the dev made it run well, added proper jumping, good combat and then screwed up of the FOV
That is quite odd although am sure some modder will add it or maybe you can edit a .ini file or something. Interestingly I got that 34 inch oled Alienware ultrawide monitor the other day so am hoping there is ultrawide support. That should help out
Consoles.
8/10 from mack is a certified banger for me 😆 starting it right now
There is no universe in which this game is an 8/10
@@Quazzi I agree, it looks janky af, 8 is a huge shout. I'll torrent it because there's literally not a single other single player FPS out there that's playable atm.
@@Quazzi I disagree
He was right, the game is what he said it is. Can't believe I never seen this channel before, I decided to see some other reviews since he was right about AH, and he's brutal!!!
Ah nice, another Mick Gordon album comes with a good game as a bonus.
I'm definitely going to pick this up when I actually have time to play it, and there's an FOV mod lol.
All of his tracks sound exactly the same
@@johndodo2062 you think Stranded sounds like The Instinct?
Lol, okay.
Glad to see it's not shit. Definitely will give this one a try. Nice to see devs that aren't afraid to make something a bit edgy/raunchy these days.
rounchy?
@@ilqrd.6608 Typo.
This gentleman has been making top class reviews since ancient times and his quality has remain steady. I have found his channel just a few days back and I'm binge watching his old videos. Genuine comedian while being precise in his approach in reviews.
Make sure to spread the word, Mack been shadowbanned here, so he needs the exposure
@@unstableordinance What nonsense. I've been here since 18k subscribers. He stagnated around 180k and 250k for a bit but he's at 300k now.
His views just aren't very mainstream, that's why he's not gaining faster.
@@jesperburns You didnt check out his cyberpunk which was the fastest viewed video that he had removed the video from the search engine and google, also he keeps on getting unsuubscribed from subscribers, people keep on sending him messages and videos dont even show up in subscribers feeds (like mine for instance)
@@unstableordinance Yes, many people can't seem to remember instances when they've disagreed with a creator and out of some kneejerk reaction pressed unsubscribe.
And yes, the algorithm works in mysterious ways. I'm subscribed to maybe a 100 channels and my feed is just constantly cycling through maybe 10 or 20 ish.
Couple of weeks ago I've had tagelharpa videos suggested (with not even a thousand views) even though I follow no musician or band that uses it.
The Cyberpunk fiasco is a good point though. But shadowbanned? Laughable.
@@jesperburns Jesper you are talking like you can see my analytics, you can't so with great respect you should shut up as you don't know wtf u are talking about. I flew up to 200k subs then loads of people started getting unsubscribed, videos started getting removed from feeds and when I look at the graph for this it all started in the summer of 2020 and the twitter mob tried to cancel me.
Is this a joke?
Usually ANY game without even a single proper PC customization is being pointed out, laughed at and trashed but here? Noooo....
No FOV slider
Missing graphical features (game was one of the first games EVER to be advertised as showcase of RT and guess what... it's not even in the game)
Mouse acceleration (MOUSE FUCKING ACCELERATION ON PC!!) that you can't turn off
Crashes and performance issues on Gamepass version
It took me a few minutes for my brain to recognize one or two of those robots. It was haunting me. Turns out they looked just like the robot in Lexx, the crazy sci-fi series that was out years ago.
It was very popular in Russia, so - very much possible. Yo way yo, home va ray.
Yeah Lexx was nice also the lead actress was hot and the Kai guy was interesting
you would be incredibly surprised at what Xev Bellringer is up to these days...
@@morrigen3 i just checked it out and there are pirn clips with a girl using that name... but she is not the same actress as in Lexx neither the first one that played her or the second
@@alinvid6098 r/wooosh
Thank you for being a voice of reason once again Mack. I see so many reviewers being "disappointed" in this game, probably because they weren't paid for once to give it good scores.
Old school gamers will probably like it. I remember Prey didn’t get good ratings by some but it was excellent.
Yep, It's not up to the modern narrative, not lecturing people about gender politics, made for people to enjoy.
I don't think it's a bad thing though. It's kinda refreshing to see positive/negative/mixed reviews like in good old days since that allows you to check different points of views of others, prons and cons, and make your own mind about the purchase. Usually every videogame website just makes "9/10 GOTA!" or "8/10 it's good I promise" verdict with similar looking reviews.
Most people just hate on this game because the devs are Russians...
For real. This is one of the few reviews that don't poop on the game for reasons that they'd otherwise praise if wasn't Atomic Heart.
The FPS counter, top left corner? Can't see it on my phone. Zooming the video won't help because of the rounding of the screen corner on my Samsung S21 Plus 😅 would appreciate a larger number 👍🏻 well done otherwise.
Unfortunately for me the narrow FOV with no way to raise it is a deal-breaker for me. I couldn't get through Space Marine precisely because of the motion sickness. It's a shame because it looks like a genuinely good game.
You might be able to go into ini files and change FOV
Hopefully they’ll patch that
UUU, open console, fov 110.
Problem solvered.
Whether I'll enjoy the game or not, I can't deny that the art style and setting is top notch.
Same. To me, looks awesome, but the gameplay looks too childish. Too easy.
Nor much said about the sound design and music. Are these parts good?
Interesting, I messed with the leaked dev build and the graphics options at the bottom had RT Reflections and Shadows options, but the final release has no RT at all?
The only thing that stood out to me that I didn't like was when you froze that enemy and shot it point blank with a shotgun. It just sort of vanished. It should of been blasted into lots of tiny shards. That would have been cool to see. Especially when you see how many effects are in this game when the action kicks off.
To be fair, this is one of the most impressive AA game I've seen
@@Chambers36TheEnter Yeah in my book it's AAA, it's about price not the size of the budget
Yeah man, It's great to hear this from you, I was a bit hesitant because the ad campaign for this wasn't great, but me personally see this as a game of the year contender, If Stalker 2 came out this year, it would beat this game, but thank you for always being honest, I'm really looking forward to this game now
Nice to hear the shoutout to Prey (2017). I too enjoyed playing that, great atmosphere. This has a HL2 / Industria look to it and also looks great, so happy to give this a go!
Almost at 300k subs Mack! Good good stuff!
Game looks pretty cool but I'll be holding off it because.
You are one of my most trusted reviewers!
I was thinking about getting this one. You’ve tipped me over the edge. I always trust you Mack :)
My predictions about this video:
- prick
- x-ray vision song
- it’s not like a 2002 game
Let’s see if I got a bingo.
Good to hear-wasn’t expecting this because the project was supposedly scraped and restarted somewhere in development
Nice review as always,really looking forward to trying this one
Had a good feeling that this was gonna turn out to be one of the rare gems of this year, and I'm glad I was proven right. Wicked review, cheers.
What is that music playing in the end? Is it some stock music from YT?
Hey Mack
Do you plan to review Against the Storm?
Glad to see you enjoying a game, Mack.
The game is definitely a unique experience with ups and downs. So far the positives outweigh the negatives by a lot, though it *really* needs an FOV slider.
Congrats on the upcoming 300k subscriber mark! :-) I really appreciate the reviews you pump out.
Gutted with the fov. I could barely play through resident evil village because of the terrible fov.
Give it a week either devs will give us a slider or the players will find *ini file.
Really looking forward to this one. Cheers Mack
almost at 300k Mack
The Emperor of Star Wars with a shotgun...I'm dyin 🤣
I’ve been waiting for this game for a month to drop. I’m excited for it! It gives me futuristic ‘BioShock’ vibes.
wee hoo an entire month you say? you must've had it really hard. Good on you, you get to play it soon!
This was the first thing I thought when seeing the first gameplay videos. 'This looks like a mix between Bioshock and Singularity'.
Prepare to be severely disappointed if you expect it to be anything like Bioshock
@@jakobfalk5045 I heard about it yesterday from an ad and now I'm pre-downloading it for tomorrow.
umad?
Could of been worse, I waited for scorn for years!
Thank you, as a newer subscriber, I have to tell you that your content is pure gold. Worth a watch even if I wasn’t wanting the game. Cheers
If it wasn't too different from 1440p to 1080p means in 1080p you're getting capped on one or more of your CPU threads.
Game looks fantastic, and the gameplay loop looks smooth, but the lack of an FOV slider and the last-second inclusion of Denuvo is a huge bummer for me.
Apparently a dev build of the game -- which DID NOT include Denuvo -- has already been leaked online lmao
FitGirl repacking it this week I think, I'll grab it then.
Yeah it sucks that the thieves get the best version as always.
Would be a killer VR game.
It works with Prey Dog's upcoming VR injector
The FOV is probably going to be an issue though
I watched another review and they said that there is mouse acceleration and that there isn't an option to turn it off. Is this true?
If so I may end up passing on this regardless that I have gamepass.
Most games are CPU limited at 1080p, when you go up to 1440p and beyond its GPU limited. Depending on your set up and the game in question it can actually run better when you up the settings on the higher resolutions given GPU's tend to be more beefy than CPU's.
I'm sorry but... the price for the full game is 90 euro. I think thats a bit steep for a single-player game.
I get motion sickness from video games, so no FOV slider means no buy from me. Very useful info !
Yeah it going to be a deal breaker for loads of people, it's essential info for a review.
maybe it wil have the fov just right for you, and you can refund in steam till 2 hours of play anyways
Hi, will you be doing a worth a buy for sons of the forest? It has 85% positive reviews but that statistic seems biased.
Also Dark and Darker should release in May as early access and it seems a lot more promising than the last popular indie game I played, valheim, which seemed to lose developer support..
A good compromise for Xray Vision would be that it can only be used when enemies have been cleared from an area.
Excellent review.
Thanks.
Mack gets the key! Glad to hear you're enjoying the game
I'm still playing Hogwarts which I'm really enjoying and now this gets released? could 2023 actually be a decent year for gaming?
Glad to see that 🔔 got a break Mack 🤣
no FOV slider, what the hell
It's good to see you finally say why x Ray vision is useful but I agree it shouldn't show enemies unless you tell it to, having the vision mode to find loot and explore is fine but that's all it should be used for
Maybe some enemies can have an augmentation that makes them invisible to your x ray vision (not trash mobs), and some even more elite enemies can even jam your x ray vision so that it gets disabled completely for a time.
X Ray vision takes away the uncertainty when you're trying to stealth around, it might make it more accessible but there's part of risk reward thought process that is taken away. I don't think Mack would care as much if it wasn't used for the majority of games that use stealth.
sound liek a much more polished version of hard reset, the bladed enemies especially remind me of those default enemies (except with much more interesting and way less "now you see it, now it's dashed in the last few feet and chipped your health-bar" nonsense.
the x ray vision song strike again 😂😂 loving it mack
REALLY !!!... a thumbs up ???... the SHITE !!!...."a good first person shooter, i've been looking for this since prey"...REALLY , REALLY, so disappointed MAC... ding ding on you..
I'm hearing a lot of reviewers complaining about most enemies and bosses being huge bullet sponges...Any comment on this Mack?
Git Gud ;)
@@WorthABuyreviews 😆👍 Fair enough!
When Mac says it's close to Prey, that's really good praises. Prey is one of my all times and never would have tried it without Mac review back in the day.
The beat for Mack's "X-Ray Vision" song is pure fire.
Looks like a boring Farcry with telekinesis.
Interesting how different people appreciate the same things very differently. The first thing I saw when I came from work today and started YT was a video from someone who totally did not recommend this game - his reasoning was bascially 'too hard' and 'no FOV slider'. Well, I think that it is completely stupid to not have a FOV slider for PC games, but is this a reason to damn a game to hell? And about the 'too hard' thing, well, I don't like bullet hell shooters and roguelikes, because they are usually too hard for me and no fun at all. And guess what, I appreciate that and why a lot of people absolutely love those kinds of games and... then go and play something different.
Most of the reviews I watched didn't say it's hard but tedious to engage especially in the open world where every alarms are annoying to deal with and skipping those are preferable since they will just waste your resources.
@@4000ThousandSmiley It's actually fun avoiding cameras in the open world but you have to use patience and your senses, especially sound. Also the open areas do the opposite of draining your resources, I often deliberately engaged the robots and let them get repaired to kill them again as you get valuable neuro loot that is used to enhance your abilities so you farm them.
Before watching the video: i didn't like that the way to win each encountered was just stunning them to death.
Stun, switch to your other stun, let your stuns cool down and repeat.
I wonder why games that have scanning modes like this don't have a toggle in the options to show (or not) enemies? Seems pretty trivial to code.... if the thing can attack the player (enemy or trap) and the hide_enemies option is true, remove it from the list of things to show when scan mode is active.
Long answer yes , short answer no.
The review of this game has been really polarizing. Ngl after seeing a bunch reviews i'm actually suprise you gave it a good score, since you're the last person i can think of that might liked the game.
Good vid tho
I believe this game uses Unreal Engine 4 which means there is a console command that adjusts FOV level.
the whole xray vision or however they explain it is either 1 of 2 things. 1 a fun mechanic for tracking or hunting without showing loot or enemies only tracks, clues, etc. or 2 its like hogwarts legacy or this it seems where there is no surprise from anything cause u know exactly where loot is or enemies are which breaks immersion completely
I think it's #1 like you said. It's meant to be used when you can't figure it out any other way. Kinda like a "clue" button in old games for when you get stuck. You're not obligated to use it all the time, so only use it when it's needed.
@@Andy_Paris exactly and dont get me started with how many games nowadays the player character or the narrator or whoever helps with puzzles even when i didnt ask or it had been like 10 seconds. Hogwarts was also really bad for this but that could because it is aimed at a younger crowd i think but still a setting to turn hints on and off please
Nora would never be in any modern western AAA games, that alone makes this worth a purchase :)
Thanks for the review. Excited to play it on gamepass
I've always wanted an I Robot styled game and finally got one. Terrifies me when they burst out of a room and run full sprint at you.
Seems like Focus Entertainment wanted to hold up an early year release date. Game is fun, but feels like 3 more months would have delivered a well - rounded experience with better DLSS implementation, Raytracing, enhanced pathfinding and some QOL features like FOV and ultrawide support in HOR+.
Respect that you always keep your content spoiler free. Like not showing the boss fight. Great work.
I like to think many people died because I gave them no clues :)
The review I’ve been waiting for.
Any plans to do: Sons of the forest? 1st impressions and review?
I love when developers put X-ray vision in their games just so I can hear the x-ray vision song
So happy to see this game success. It isn't perfect by any means but they managed to release something decent. We nee d a FOV slider indeed haha.
Funny to see how your review is about the opposite of skill ups review. Will see who I agree more with when the game releases for us plebeians :)
shillup gonna shill
@@bobby_c07 skill up was alot more critical tho????????
Flawless Wide-screen DOES fix the FOV issues, sucks that a mod fixes it first day instead of the devs taking time to add that. Game has a dialog in issue in the first 3 hours too, nobody seemed to shut up for more than 2 minutes at a time.
Gams seems good but the lack of fov slider, that's criminal. I was surprised you weren't complaining more about it. I'll wait until they fix it.
Ive been looking forward to this game for quite some time and I'm so happy to see you're giving it a good review I was quite worried about it
Same... and now I'm playing it I'm even more worried. 7/10 absolute tops for me and that's ignoring a lot of stuff.
I think Skillup's review is closer to how I'm feeling about the game.
Love how it’s an ‘L’ for X-ray vision lol
Yes it's hilarious, dev has a sense of humour.
??
Cheers Mack, I appreciate your review and I'll definatly be playing it!
Hard coded keys are effing ridiculous!
IF
THEN
I like the way you describe this game. It makes me want to play it. When you say: "If you don't like puzzles, don't touch this game", I want to play it even more, because I like puzzles =)
You say 8/10... so adjusting for my tastes and hopes... this would be a 4 or 5/10 at most. It really did look like an Immersive Sim but seems it's just a stupid shooter. Ehhh...
Awesome, I’ve been looking forward to playing this, and I’m even more keen now, just got to wait on the internet to be installed
Was going to purchase it right now, but will wait till FOV slider appears either official or mod 🙂
Looks very good! Combat looks a bit too fast and intense for me (I'm past 40 and I'm just getting slower), but I like the setting.
Im 43 and I totally know what your mean.
I'm the same age and I have no clue what you're talking about xD I still play overwatch and stuff and trounce the kids. It's all in the mind **taps forehead knowingly**
@@Kholaslittlespot1 So much is screwed up in my head, so that is absolutely a possibility. 🙃
No way...believable characters. No thank you! I need Alpha Women that look like bull dogs who fell into some water colors as leaders or it's not real to me.
Cheers Mack! Great and honest review as always. Might be the first "big" game I buy in over 5 years.
I am having problems with controls. It ignores non US keyboard controls especialy the number keys. which you kinda need for dialogues and of course weapon slots. I tried to override mouse scroll, it still uses switches the fucking weapons even tho I assigned it to next and prev consumables...
Looks like a amazing game that the West would of made 15 years ago, so 100% a buy for me
Gosh, reviews are all over the place for this game
I will give you one guess as to why that is lol
Are you going to do a review of Wanted: Dead??? For good or bad, it would be a worth a watch review.
When is this: "Mac - x-ray vision" comming to spotify?
If there is no bell in the words, the words from the developers, you know we in for something pretty good! Thanks big Mack!
