Is a highly unpleasant experience. The presentation and artwork and music are nice. The characters/story are awful. The gameplay and design is terrible. Essentially, you’re always being attacked from all sides while having no real cover and a truly incompetent AI as a helper character.
What story? It’s a run of the mill FPS, not fucking Half-Life 2.
Precisely.
Edit: I will give them this: Brian Cox as Visari is one of the best performances, however brief, in gaming. It only draws contrast to how awful the writing is for whoever is not a Helghast. Ironically, after I saw the ending, Visari was right. his murder made him a martyr and made me even more sympathetic to the Helghast than I already was
I thought he was marlon brando.
I liked not having much cover. It made it a lot harder, until I found out that the knife is a one hitter. The AI was horrible, I just killed them, I killed everybody.
And don’t you just fucking hate that black guy’s voice actor? God, it sounded like a little kid trying to sound like an adult.
EIDT:
And the cover system! What the fuck were they thinking!
Its not that there wasn’t any cover, its that the cover system didn’t work.
