I don’t hear it talked about much. It’s from the co-creators of Dishonered & Prey but has the feel of what Fallout 1 & 2 would play like if they came out today IMO.

    I played it. Overall, I wanted to like it more than I actually did. The world building was fun but the gameplay was just kinda awkward. I remember the game starts you out with $0 and 0 bullets and then throws you into an ambush. With no bullets and no way to buy bullets, that first battle is unreasonably difficult. Once you actually defeat them, loot their corpses for money, and buy bullets, the game gets better though.

    Also, as an unrelated rant, I don’t like when someone names a specific thing after an entire genre. I have a similar complaint with the TTRPG called “cyberpunk”. You can say Mike Pondsmith created cyberpunk and that’s technically accurate, but it’s also horribly misleading.

    I played the first story/chapter but ran out of steam before getting much farther. It’s got a good aesthetic generally

      Yeah, the game was kind of slow. I had fun with it, but just kinda stopped playing after a while. I think it was just too clunky.

    I have it in my library, and plan on playing it. But right now I’m playing outward & stellaris, and I prefer not to jump around much.

    Got it with ps+ monthly games. Played it for a bit and liked it somewhat. Need to play it some more, just got caught up in playing other games. Damn backlog.
