ASTRA

Duration: ~1 hour(s) What can I say about ASTRA? The game is extremely jank, and you can piss on things to kill spirits and the like. If that's something you will find funny, you might be the kind of person who'd play this game. It's not a very GOOD game, but there's some fun here. The videos are exactly what you see in the trailer. There is basically one small box area with one village, one castle, and a little valley? There's not enough and you can go from left to right with less than a minute. These places also have some smaller dungeons to fight in, and honestly they don't take you much time on them. There's one place to buy items from people with like, 5 items. I could take a few more words about this, but you get the idea. It's not a lot here. Fighting is extremely simple, as the enemy AI is simple as well. One will either walk towards you, stop, attack, redo. The other will stand there and send you a project at you. That's it. The graphics are also old, something around the Quake era though not as well as done. You can see what they're trying something, but it's not done well. Don't watch the game to expect it to look good. Look at the trailers again and you'll see what you're getting here. There's probably a bit more you could see about this game, but I've already written more in my review now, so the rest you'll just have to play it for yourself. Or not. As of this, I haven't played their extra patch content yet, but I might just pass. [hr][/hr] If you’d like to see the game in motion through my eyes, [url=https://kuoushi.com/videos/astra/]take a look at this complete archive of me playing it[/url] here. It should give you a good idea of how the game plays and what to expect.

At the start you're hit with a character creator that makes you select your pronouns even though they aren't mentioned anywhere in the game. There's also graffiti behind a building in the beginning area that says free Palestine with their flag. This immediately sets the tone for where the developer's priorities are at as frankly I'd give this game a low rating even if it was a free game, let alone a paid one. No key mapping. No inherent fullscreen resolution. No visual or audio feedback to show that your melee attacks connected with an enemy or prop. Minimal story conveyed only through scattered texts. Lack of weapon and enemy variety. Barely an hour worth of content at a slow pace. I'll admit I found the visuals charming and the sound design was good but those alone don't make this worth paying for.
