Amazing game.
How did this game fly under the radar? Buying it now!
Liked and Subscribed. Great take. I just finished the game and LOVED it. My only gripes being the Alien Aggressiveness mechanic and the inability to control individual marines vs. the entire group in tactical scenarios and landscapes. You said you play the TRPG genre often, care to name some of your favorites from the genre?
I love this game! I've been playing it on PS5 and its been so fun. I can however only play it in sessions of 1 hour max as its too scary and stressful haha. I'm so thankful to the devs who just made the most perfect aliens game ever <3
👌
Is it posible to complete this game on infestation level 4 , I’m on the third level and low grade marines , or do I have to restart the game?
This is a frustrating game for me. Gameplay and atmosphere is top notch but it’s let down by a very very weak ending in my opinion.
I loved every minute of this game, probably one of the best games set in the aliens universe ever made
My #1 problem with this game was the audio. People call me crazy, but it did not SOUND like an Aliens game. The Alien screams, the ambient music, nothing felt right. Really threw me off. And the Death Clock. F$ck the Death Clock so much.
Heed my advice, set difficulty to easy. it still will be hard.
Just picked up in the sale after watching your review. These sales are killing my backlog 😅
Anyone know if this is steam deck compatible?
I want to play this game because I love the Aliens franchise. However I'm scared that it will be brutally hard, not mention I suck at these time of games.
The game gives you a psych ward for your marines.
After the atmospheric processor mission I felt like I needed some time in there for me.
Im getting this weird bug where I cant deploy a mission and have to skip days even though ive done all I can in the base. This causes the infestation level to build up rapidly.
Very thorough review. Thank you.
I appreciate Steamdeck section, because it helps me to make decision If I buy on ps5 or PC – mouse vs controller, so little reviewers gives this info. Kinda surprised they didnt decide to give option to move whole squad with left analog ie since you are always moving as a one unit.
Got it in a Halloween sale so, halfway through. The only bugs I've run into so far are the ones I need to shoot.
JUST BOUGHT THIS IN A STEAM SALE FOR 20 QUID, IM LOVING IT BUT I HATE THE REPEATING DIALOGUE
Tnx man, just bought it on steam and was freaking over the toughness it provides. Now I realize I've just been playing it wrong lol. Very helpful review, tnx again!
Just to add to steam deck playability of this game. At this day (4 months after this review) I run it on the deck at steady 40fps and it’s adequate and I’m at 70% (hard) of the game completion. It’s not perfect and sometimes the controls when at slowdown may be a bit slow (quickly release right shoulder and then press it again and you will regain fast controls) but I think it has to do with the game not being free of bugs. Expect some low fps when when the background animation is running when on the Otago but once you lunch the level everything seams to run smoothly.
I really really enjoy this game as I was looking for another alien game after Alien Isolation which I played so much that It’s too predictable to me now but still on VR (mother mod) and with additional difficulty mods it does make me comeback to it because there nothing else like AI that captures the mood and atmosphere. Deep descent although is not in first person but it does give you similar feeling and the gameplay is excellent in my opinion!
Love this dudes reviews. Love the timestamps. He always goes over gameplay and or combat. That's the heart of the game and most people review shit like – sound…
Is it not possible to eliminate all aliens? Like 50 sentry guns to gun them all down.
I just finish the game on Hard I am part of those 3.7% of players that got that achievement, Love this game, will play it again in hardest difficulty.
Thank you for this review! I discovered this game thanks to your review & I recently finished my first play through. Very enjoyable experience.
