This game is a less good Dead Space. That's a problem.
There are many reasons this game was rated low that have nothing to do with performance.
It's an extremely linear, action horror game with janky repetitive combat, generic story, and terrible copy and paste boss fights.
Played the game on maximum security and I died many many times… it was not easy .. but even with all the deaths I still finished the game in 7 hours. I had fun.. I don’t get why everyone just says it’s in dead spaces shadow.. I mean dead space was a knock off of resident evil and they said it themselves.. honestly this feels like a resident evil game to me.. I’m gonna be playing it some more when new game + comes out. I’d say it’s a solid 7.
I will definitely get it… on sale.
Lies 0/10 dislike
Elden Ring is made bad. That's why it's difficulty trash. Callisto Protocol is way better than Elden Ring in every way possible.
most of the people that made dead space franchise made this game
Id rather replay doom 3 for atmosphere than this.
And no, it is Not challenging. You can dodge EVERY attack in the game. Every single one
I’m 100% with you that people writing this game off for being hard is ridiculous. Also seems people are giving it bad reviews because it’s stuttering bad on pc which can be fixed smh.
Combat is trash it’s only “difficult” because the combat is straight up janky as hell it is absolutely abysmal especially when there are multiple enemies at the same time it is the worst experience I’ve ever had. I platinumed elden ring.. this games combat is what destroys it for me.
I ALMOST think EA is paying for bad reviews ahead of their remake……REMAKE. Cause they can't create a NEW Dead Space. Everyone should have known what to expect. New developer. New IP. Wasn't gonna be perfect their first outing. We should support if we can so we get a sequel. Everyone is cheering GOW Ragnarok which has some GLARING issues it shouldn't have at this point.
I work a lot . So 98% of time I play for story and experience. I don’t like difficult games for the fact it consumes time…I don’t have. I can play and beat difficult games when I got extended time. Bloodbourne was huge for me. I got 60% through Seikero before quitting due to the fact I was on vacation and when I got back to work 1 month passed and I forgot my rhythm. This was first review that mentioned difficulty after literally tons of watching. Thanks because $75 is a lot of money to spend on a game only getting 30% in.
I love this game so far my score is 9 out of 10 but I'm still early in the game combat is good challenging with some horror elements can't understand why some people don't like the game I see loads of shit online
Getting ready to start now. If I can get this krafton id to work. I bought this last second because I've been itching to play dead space but I struggle to replay games. I don't think I've played any game twice ever. So this is kinda the itch scratched …dead space but its not.
I returned min on ps4 If you could put games out like last of us part 2 god of war That are more open world and still work then you can do it with the rooms and corridors in jump scares instead of stuttering Gameplay
Weak story, disastrous mechanics, repetitive, not optimized, etc…too many negatives to overlook as "opinions"!!! Cash grab AF!
These Devs must be total incompetent or ripping gamers off chargeing $60+…I'm done with them. Fooled me with Cytberpunk..now this!
It’s not the difficulty, combat is just not fun, it’s slow, clunky and fails to work properly quite often, that’s the problem.
This game is tough, I think people are being a little harsh though. In my opinion the close camera angle and the fact that fighting more than 2 enemies is clunky adds to the feeling of helplessness you're meant to be feeling; Jacob isn't a battle hardened space marine. I don't think it's a perfect game by any means, but it's been, at least for me, a super enjoyable story/cinematic experience with very well crafted environments and sound design. Don't let reviews stop you from playing a game that you think you'd like.
Sounds about right . The game loooks gorgeous , I really like the setting and the world they built but I hate the controls . Honestly I think this might be the worst gun controls I’ve ever used in any video game.. it can be very frustrating.. I’d still give the game a 6 or 7 overall.
In general. From what I've seen, its more of a "looks good but doesn't play good" kinda game from what I've been hearing among the other reviewers.
Is it true?
I don’t mind hard games, but the combat wasn’t satisfying at all. I put in on easy and ran past a lot of enemies barely making it to the next checkpoint because I didn’t want to fight. Just not fluid at all. Switching guns, dodging, slow movement, all of it turned me off. I’ll never play this game again. Even with a dlc, there’s gonna be too many other new games overshadowing it anyway s
Oh no it has frame rate issues. Wait for the effin patch, Jesus. Bunch of little b*tches. It’s not different enough from dead space, wtf did you think it was gonna be? That’s like saying why is it in third person? It’s too much like resident evil 4. So stupid.
My mom was yelling at my dad give me another one do you like to eat pizza too
Honestly, you shouldn’t care about other peoples opinions. Trust within yourself. I remember a time where we didn’t need a review in order to play a video game…but the YouTuber just HAS to put it out there because it, it brings them views not saying you Alex….just from what I’ve seen..The Callisto Protocol is short yes, but it is enjoyable. People are scared to make up their minds so they go to their favorite YouTuber. Ridiculous.
ignor the people complaining about the game i am very fussy when it comes to games and i would recomend it whole heartedly. the dodge thing is what is putting people off but its easy to fix, lycan explains how and i strongly recomend doing it.
i will do my first run on easy and my second on ultra hard.
its a great sci fi horror game.
its good to see that so many people are ignoring the ones saying this game is carp, ok it might not be for you but dont spoil it for other people and dont exagerate about its flaws, skill up said i quote "its a terrablle game and i hated ever minute i was playing it, it was a pianfull grind from start to finnish" anyone that has played it for half an hour will wounder what he was on when he said that or what game he was playing?
I don't know why they say the game is difficult. It's easy actually. Dodging and auto aim mechanic after successfully hitting a combo makes the game easier but the cons is, it makes the games less scarier. This is my opinion as my favorite games are survival horrors. It is fun to play though but lacks the punch when it comes to horror. My only complain technically is the black level raised on HDR. I'm playing it on PS5.
I have very good pc and a ps4 this game is broken in both 😑😑
From what I hear the game 8s too easy and the mechanics are bad
I think gameplay is good , my problems are with the story , miles behind dead space , and its very very light survival horror, its more like an action game.
It's a mediocre and shortlived but good looking scifi action game. No horror, no survival aspects, no real bosses, no puzzles, etc. It's not bad but it is WAY inferior to DS, even DS3.
Get the PS5 version. From what I played the game is hard, but I think the issue people are having is that they're trying to play this like Dead Space or Resident Evil. If you play like that you will get absolutely destroyed.
Like u said, i watch reviews to gain insights into what will b major boons or sticking points, i can make up my own mind whether i like the game as a whole.❤
Point on about the reveal this would b a hard game to play. Hence the added death animations to take the sting out of the grind. Say thank u😂
The complaints for pc is mainly stuttering and crashes but dont take into consideration upcoming updates and patches. For instance, Gotham knights had horrible day 1 technical issues (and still has some) and the 1st week it had 'mixed" reviews ON STEAM. Fast Forward 2 weeks later and 4 patch updates later and the gameplay is a lot smoother (especially for RTX Cards not sure for amd RX Cards im running a Ryzen 95900x w/ RTX 3080 12GB) and the reviews are now mostly "POSITIVE". So I ALWAYS take day 1 (first week reviews) with a grain of salt until a couple of updates . Its unfortunate but its the new norm that pc day 1 games have performance issues but fast forward a couple weeks (some games sooner other later) after update patches the review scores mostly always changes to Positive. You cant blame someone for giving a negative review when they are experiencing frame rate issues and crashes but on the same note the game isnt getting a true review based off "PURE" Gameplay due to bugs. Once they fix that then people give a review for what the game TRULY IS. I have pc and ps5 although the ps5 is my sons this has been my experience on pc for past 8 years I still always buy the pc version always over the console version and thats mainly because once the patches come in I can take advantage of higher framerates and mods which always makes my experience better. I dont fanboy for over plastic and besides I have both minus a xbox series x
Combat is not designed for multi enemies combat and there are combat spikes to pad the game and make you slow down.
From what I've been told so far…. I'm told to wait until it's cheaper. It's not worth 70. It's not nearly as good as Dead Space… from what I hear.
Games pretty frigging great and runs pretty good on console. Seems like most issues are the pc port end. Also alot of the combat complaints can be deactivated in the menu. The weakest thing is the story but the combat and atmosphere is awesome so far. I'm only like 3 hours in.
TLDR it's a dissapointment and mediocre. And on PC is downright trash due to poor optimization.
In the review that Sony was involved the mo cap from DP.
I watched the walktroug i generaly enjoyed it the game is kinda mid way …so i will get it some time in the future when the price will get to 30 eu/dolars not for 60 because that kinda feel little bit expensive for me
I’m picking this up after work , I see it getting mixed reviews but then I wanna play it and see for myself.
I don’t understand all of the hate that The Callisto Protocol is receiving TBH. I’m 4hrs into it on my Series X & loving every moment! Not as scary as anticipated, but the graphics, gameplay & story SLAP! 🔥🔥🔥
Too much bad reviews I'm seeing
Just don’t get the pc version
I’m playing it on my ps5 and I’ve not ran into any problems so far so I’m happy I’m really enjoying it
Let me just say that I play every game on hard but this game is stupid hard, plus some of the mechanics don't work so well, so that is an added bonus lol. But the good news is that within the accessibility settings you can set up auto-aim and auto-dodge. Should help out….and although using auto-dodge might actually take away from the core gameplay, I don't feel bad about it because as I've said…it's difficult and the dodge doesn't always work well. Holding back us supposed to block but I keep getting hit. Later I realized you have to hold back right before getting hit…so it's more of a parry than a block
