Playing blind on "normal" for my 1st playthrough (minimum of 1.5 to 2 playthroughs for all achievements) took just under 16 hours to reach the end of the game. Not a very long game, but I picked it up for $1.50 on sale, so nothing to complain about. All-in-all I did enjoy the game. The combat was active with a few wtf moments where enemies suddenly could dodge multiple finishing blows. Combat was a bit rough in the beginning until I started charging my weapon... electric bonk ftw!! Even through the game is fairly linear, they managed to stash some lootables that felt like minor exploration rewards. There was also a pretty good story (but grim) told through the various cut scenes. Cosidering the game is more that 10 years old (and the price I paid), I forgave much of it's shortcomings... many of which were minor... for example: 1) all loot is crafting material... whether a stash or an enemy... no gear or weapons 2) gear and weapons only come as rewards from quests or are bought from vendors 3) "romance" felt like an after-thought "system"... example ... "hi, i know we just met at the beginning of act 3, and we only walked from the Act 3 starting point to there, but because you exhausted all of my dialogue when we first met and we're now at the camp... I think i love you" .. wow, and now the romance portion of the game is complete. 4) The game can feel a bit like a walking simulator, ladder climbing simulator, and door opening simulator. The last two get annoying because they involve a mini cut scene each interaction. There are no teleporters, and if you want the "all side quests" achievement, you will be walking back and forth a lot. 5) Others have reported their dislike of the respawns, but they are required as a source of XP and crafting materials. I found I could come back to an area and it's still be clear, but once you leave it again you need to fight your way out. If you can get passed these short comings, there is a pretty fun game here. Now to crank up the difficulty and get the last few achievements. ===== Update ===== Last "extreme" run took less time (about 12-13 hrs), partially due to using the "boot camp" mod. Some things to note with this last run: 1) Folks complaining about the respawn... never learned about stealth or taking the slightly "longer way" to to avoid certain fights... also doing a certain quest "early" in Act 2 gets you your papers, which makes some spots fight free. 2) definintely followed a guide to ensure I found/completed enough side quests for the completionist achievement ... quest completion order as well as making some "right choices" were super important. "Choices matter" only for achievements. 3) I forgot to mention i had a few crashes to desktop... less than five combined across both runs, but an FYI 4) Devotion's "romanace" is really the only one where you see some gradual progression... more so because her cutscenes span much of Act 3, and ultimately triggers just before the final push to end game.

When I play this game, I feel like I'm playing the good old games that were still cool back then. I bought two parts of the game on sale, and I am very grateful to the developers for the fact that it costs so little in my region, but it's too small a price for such a wonderful game.

You are seeing the “mostly positive” reviews on Steam, checked the Metacritic score of 58. So, it’s hard to defend as an investment, right? As Rambo answered he fired a few shots, I “fired” some RPGs. It was a leap of faith, I confess. I bought it back in 2018, seven years ago. It was buried in my game’s chest. The game is a must, to all RPGs fans. When playing, some vibes from Dune, Fallout and Star Wars Knights of Old Republic were there, but in an authentic way, unique, plainly beautiful. Other reviewers got the characters, the story and the fantastic atmosphere right. No point repeating that. My recommendations: 1- Followed the Freki_FOCUS tutorial to change the field of view. Found that 65 was great ( default is 45 – too close) = > go to discussions, it’s pinned. 2- Hook up a controller to play the game, since combat can be challenging sometimes ( playing on hard ). There is a trick to make the controller recognized by the game: just unplug your mouse or USB dongle ( wireless ) and plug it again. Thank me later. One thing that I learned from games is that they could tell a different story from official reviews and from people’s opinions. It’s up to you to buy it and play. No one bossing you to do or not to do. But if you do, you certainly will favorite this game in your library and leave a positive review! Thanks for reading!

I played The Technomancer before this, and it in no way spoils that game's narrative. They're not connected story wise at all they just share some lore, and this one actually released first. .. So don’t feel like you have to play both, and don’t put this off if you’ve already played Technomancer. Overall, it’s very similar to the rest of Spiders catalog the combat is rough and quickly becomes tedious, and the exploration can drag. But the atmosphere is solid, the story is genuinely engaging (with choices that meaningfully affect the narrative), and the companions are interesting enough to carry you along. It’s a short RPG, but a fun one. If you’ve played a Spiders game before, you already know what you’re in for they’re consistent, for better or worse.

in some sense, if you wanted an rpg in Red Faction-like settings with Batman Arkham combat and Mad Max game's routine, that's it. seems like everything here was done with passion, but they didn't have enough budget. I never expected to much from them though, stayed open to surprises, and ended up having fun with this game. and now it's almost free, which is unfair I think, but it's a good reason to try it without expecting too much as well.
