So what this tells me is that at least half the playerbase quit by act 3.

This game is supposed to be some kind of Magnum Opus. The fact that so many people got bored of it, not even halfway through, makes me chuckle. I finished it, but I had to force myself to do so after act 1.

4.5/10.

It's pretty huge imo.

I tried adjusting the colors at the store near me, and they weren't as good as I was hoping for.; could be a me issue, and what I'm looking for is probably far more expensive.

But yeah, it is pretty huge. I've got a 28" wide, and i wish it was a little smaller.

I have that one. I find it decent for gaming, but I keep having a problem where dark colors produce a ghosting effect when your camera moves in game. There is a way to reduce the problem a little but I haven't yet figured out how to completely solve it.

It's good for casual games, but not great for more intense games like fps, those are the ones where I notice the ghosting the most.

Luca Blight from Suikoden 2 is horribly evil. Kefka would normally be my vote, but Luca forces a woman to crawl around on her hands and knees and oink like a pig to preserve her life and then just kills her anyway. Gotta give that evil bastard a shout out.

I think the difficulty is more tied to your RNG for artifacts and such. I think i had 3 or 4 deaths first time i started it on first biome, the breezes through all 3 in one go when the drops was in my favour. Then same happened on 4th, then breezed through all 3 in one go when i got good stuff again.

the glove VA is good but we're in a heavy pro-soviet CCCP all hail russia-esque game with NO russian sounding people until they pronounce something russian. i dont know if it's to be anti-russia or what but it greatly kills immersion when everyone sounds like a midwest rich suburban dad in the heart of russia

90$ a game you better believe it better be the best thing ever, or everyone else will wait until its on sale 30%+, rightfully so.

Also it's a roguelite game and we paid 44$ for horizon and god of war when they came out. Much bigger games by comparison

It's not underrated most of the gaming community doesn't want a big challenge and alot of people just react too slow to progress properly in a game like this. People have limited time and some people had to attempt phrike like 30 times to beat him

A good 5% in the beginning is probably just people who figured they can't run the game, bringing the stats in line with the consoles. Otherwise... I feel like PC gamers are a much wider audience, with different preferences, because there's a wider variety of games available. Hence the final completion rate being lower even accounting for the 5% that quit right off the bat due to specs.

>SOUND: for being a russian/soviet union based game, the voice acting is just pure lazy. even if everyone is anti-russia right now you could at least make an attempt to SOUND russian like metro. every lime said in the game sounds like the people are falling asleep reading their lines. and their is SO much pointless expository dialogue that literally means nothing.

I thought some of the VAs were good. The glove was pretty good imo. Made the protag seem that much worse.

Also the music is very, very good. The music while in the upgrade machine is a nice contrast, I would leave it on sometimes.

>GAMEPLAY: the game runs like this, get objective, get inconvenienced several times, roadblock, break roadblock, find objective, backtrack. it gets super repetitive and just mildly frustrating. not to mention it has a semi-linear open world with no reason for it (like halo infinite) other than for the sake of being open world.

Not wrong, its extremely linear and unlike the games it wants to be (Bioshock, Deus Ex)
