Is there a single person on the whole of SW who paid $70 for this game?ðŸ¤
I think Kvalleyx said he was going to pay $70 for it. If it wasn't him, I know there was at least 1 xbox guy who usually pays for their games but whoever it was may have fell back on that idea.
I buy my games, yup.
I started the game this morning before work. When looking at this game from the perspective of a AAA high quality campaign game like Halo Infinite or Gears of War, it clearly doesn't hold up visually. It doesn't hold up with voice overs. Art style is making the game appear as though it has been in development since the debut of the Xbox One, intended for the Xbox One.
I have only cleared out the Fire Station and started my trek east down the street from the Fire Station to go find the downed helicopters. During that time, the only issue I have had related to graphics, is the occasional shimmering. I saw some in that wave that was stopped for example. I had no issues with frames, and everything I had done was solid. I used the light arc on two vampires at the same time, as they were coming at me, then took shotgun shots to their faces while they were stuck, got their health down fast, R3'd them with the stake and made them my bitch. Not a blip.
Menu is easy to use. I love that the available skill points are noted next to your health. Most games I play, I need to find my available skill points by going into the menu. I would love to see more games add this. Or I just never played games that had this shown on the HUD.
Loot is plentiful, health packs seem to be frequent enough. Though regarding loot, I wish I could press/hold down on a button to scan an area so that I can see highlight loot easier. Sometimes I really don't notice the highlight around loot items, like pieces of paper.
I changed my controller sensitivity to the recommended settings that some people have found improvements with, so I never even got a chance to see how it was default. But it seems fine, but I still need to get used to it having just come off of playing Burning Shores, the sensitivity is still way different.
Control setup is great, HUD is great, shooting and the other weapons and items that you can use to attack are all VERY satisfying. I absolutely love the shooting aspect. It kind of reminds me of the satisfaction I get in Borderlands. It's obviously very early, but I don't get a Far Cry feel from the game yet.
I "think" I will like the game. It is by no means a 2 or 4 based on this initial impression. I look forward to exploring more. I could see how this might be fun co-op, but I don't know if I will ever try it.
