🧊❄️ LOST PLANET 3 IS A ICE-COLD BUGGY MESS OF A TITLE THAT AGED WELL REVIEWED ON: (GeForce GT 1030/i7-3770 ) This is a prequel to the events of Lost Planet 2 and the first game, pretty much explains how it all begins. Lost Planet 1 is available on Steam, but the second game got taken down. Read a lot of negative reviews and can relate, this game is very different from the first two. And while it's true combat is not the best although in a third-person Dead Space 3 shooter perspective, backtracking is frustrating, and your movement throughout the campaign feels so weak. I can confirm this is because during LP 1 and 2, everything about the world, it's people, and surroundings have evolved over time. Even so, CAPCOM did change a lot of a lot so we can't really base ourselves much from the story. It's one of those errors devs pull from the hat casually, and the magic is just negativity from the community. The game did not feel that bad for me, but I did struggle from time to time so let's break it into points of interest. 🦾 PLOT (SPOILER ALERT): We follow our bro Jim Peyton into this artic voyage in an unknown planet til' the end. As a utility man in his profession, Jim left his home, son, and sexy wife, to take this job that would bring in more money for his family over the brutal winter. Little did he know that bro would come across an inmense secret, hidden by lies and sacrifices, and the history of a lost colony. Jim will soon realize, that he has been on the wrong side from the beginning. A story about a not-so casual hero, a modest family man, and his efforts to do what is right, in the end creating a legacy for interplanetary years to come. 🦾 WELCOME TO A BUG-INFESTED PARADISE: This game has a lot of bugs, and it may be different for everyone. First game I ever bought on Steam where I even faced so many bugs, and was honestly concerned when I read about players getting soflocked. My bugs were annoying, but I managed to play the game to the end and also record it to my channel even with some issues here and there. You can check out my full walkthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYWc6m3uqRS8 -The few and total bugs I faced were: 1. Automatically resized video and screen when recording on OBS. For some reason this never happened to me, but after launching the game and recording it I never expected to get some weird black borders on the final product. I eventually fixed this manually later and part 2-6 were enjoyable to watch with 60 FPS of performance. 2. Some sort of login issue? This must be caused by the fact LP3 actually has a server and multiplayer mode, but still felt off. During the recording my game stopped and sent me to the menu claiming there was some sort of login credentials error. Kept doing so, until I managed to click fast and bypass it. Probably the most disgusting bug I faced in the game. 3. Kebybinds don't work as they should. I faced a lot of keybind issues not responding or executing, and had to pause the game here and there to investigate and find a solution. Some keys even if you set them as the ones you wanted did not work when pressed. And other keys worked wrongly. An example would be WSAD keys which were required to rotate mechanics. I randomly pressed all keys until I found the one that worked. It was the H key! What in the world bro? A mechanic that requires 4 keys, runs on one? -The game has a lot of bugs no doubt, but if you only experienced what I did, then don't drop it just because of this. There's probably a fix you can apply on your side. 🦾 THE RIG: Throughout the campaign you will pilot a massive mecha that you will use to travel long distances in, combat, fix damaged structures, and get to places you could not before. You can't simply leave your rig in the distance and walk to your objective, since Jim is extremely slow, but it makes sense considering you're mostly walking on snow, climates are dreadful, and he's equipped head to toe with heavy armor? Anyways, the Rig is like your go-to everywhere. You will be able to upgrade it casually with scrap parts, learn some skills here and there, maximize the base health, ect. You don't need to buy it all in order to complete the game probably, I didn't. Also your ammo is full everytime yo get in and out of your Rig, so you basically are prepared to last combat, and sometimes can even troll fate itself by reloading all your equipment during battle. 🦾 A PLANET FULL OF IMPRESSIVE ALIEN LIFEFORMS: E.D.N. III is a planet full of various extraterrestial fauna, which you will constantly battle on foot or inside your rig. There's quite some variety and minor bosses tied to story sequences, models are pretty cool, and to this day a fourth game featuring these creatures in the current generation of gaming would be dope. 🦾 INFINITE AMMO, WEAPON CHOICE, AND SOME UPGRADES: In LP3 running out of ammo is something should not happen that often, but I did play it on low difficulty as all my games. Jim had an inifnite-ammo pistol, so even if your weapons have none, there's always a way out and saving bullets depends on the player. You'll find some different weapons, and be able to upgrade them, as well as your ammo, grenade pouches, ect. As the game progresses and you buy better weapons, you will adapt to your own style and probably not use them all. TO CONCLUDE: Lost Planet 3 is a PC port of quite an old game, players will struggle to find themselves comfortable with the new feel and gameplay, and or have a hard time dealing with atrocious bugs. I came for the story, and don't regret it. My frustration was not that much and I managed to enjoy the whole thing. There are some optional missions, but did not pay attention to those much and focused on the main story. Game is short you could say, even if piloting the rig makes it feel longer. Voice acting could have been better, but some characters are interesting. Not the best of endings, but a decent approach to the beginnings of the series. 9.5/10

THAT was a rollercoaster. So first, the good. The game has great atmosphere. The snowy storms, the heavy winds, the abandoned bases overran by Akrid. It was easy to immerse and feel the chill on my shoulders. The on-foot combat was partly cover-based, but overally didn't feel as cumbersome as classic cover shooters. Weaponry variety is nice. Story is fine enough. Graphics are fine. But who in their right mind decided it's a good idea to fight dangerous enemies... on a hostile planet... in an enormous, defenseless, slow mecha made out of crêpe paper that dies as soon as something sneezes in its direction? Every single encounter pretty much requires you to leave your machine and fight on foot. Which would be bearable... if not for gameplay segments where you are *forbidden* from leaving the mecha, so you can only helplessly swing your powerless arms in general direction of Akrid swarms, just as if you tried to kill the fly that's flying in front of your nose, but which succeeds in escaping you. Then you die from two stings and reload... just to watch that intro cutscene for the third time, because the checkpoints have been placed in the most useless spots possible. And finally, I've gone through THREE very well known softlocks that I had to google in order to get out of. As much as the friction was an inescapable part of the experience, I still overally enjoyed it. I'd even come back for sidequests, if not for the mech being so incredibly slow and cumbersome to move around in -- but it's bearable enough for the duration of the main story.

I feel like if this game was not named Lost Planet...people would have liked it more, I have really enjoyed the world building as well as the slower pace of this game so far. I have a ways to go before I finish it but I am pretty perplexed by all the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ reviews. Game is pretty good, especially for 3 dollars.
