Atomfall

I like that the game doesn't hold your hand, but I have ADHD and a crappy sense of direction so I easily get lost or forget where I'm going, and while the journal can help, having the option to place more than one temporary waypoint or having a quest waypoint would be helpful. I wish there was more inventory space or the option to stack some items that can be used for crafting. It would also be nice -- in a game as melee focused as this -- to have an option to block and/or dodge, but you get neither option here and have to take a hit to deal some hits. It's cool that you don't get XP and instead you get skills from finding a specific item type through exploration, and the small number of magazines to have the option to learn some new skills but I would have loved to see more skills. The options seemed way too limited. All in all, if you're a fan of mysteries and player-choice that can affect the narrative of the game, then you'll find yourself right at home in Atomfall.

Cons: For a game that hooked me with its first hour of gameplay I can't say it kept up that charm for the whole game. Major complaint is that enemies magically have infinite ammo and upon looting them they have one single rifle bullet. You have to get the quest from a quest giver before the item spawns in the location given. I can't stress this enough, imagine going through an entire dungeon clearing enemies only to find that you have to go through it again and kill everyone again just because you didn't have the quest. They lost me when I realized you couldn't upgrade your inventory nor capacity for bullets/materials. The story beats were lackluster and I didn't find any relief in completing important objectives. The enemy AI was some of the worst I've seen in a game lately, comically bad. Upgraded my stealth to max and that did nothing. Upgraded all my firearm skills and the gun play still was unwieldy. Upgraded my Melee skills to max and it still felt awful, no dodge mechanic for me but the enemies can? Why. Pros: The metal detecting was fun. The graphics were pretty and the landscapes doubly so. Playing on the hardest difficulty made it enjoyable because enemies were not just a push over. 4/10 - TL:DR Atomfall is tedious and mid.

Beat it on survivor, had fun, got two endings. There's a lot of missed potential. I missed the DLC mission somehow. I didn't miss the ten thousand scrap and glasses I couldn't pick up. Why make gun grades? I couldn't even find a gunsmith, your rusted crap will be fine. Could I have not taken some of the pounds of gunpowder and add with scrap to make some ammo? Nope. Here's some more cloth..... Ended up with a storage of batteries, 1911's and medkits I can't carry. Didn't all the shopkeeps say they'd restock? It's not British S.T.A.L.K.E.R., that's a much better game. It scratched an itch.

I really like this game. It's good. Don't go in expecting METRO or FALLOUT levels of combat, but the options are there. What's great about ATOMFALL is that you can pretty much head in any direction, do anything, and the narrative sort of resolves itself around you. You can take a completely different path and the game knows exactly what you're doing, serving up a narrative queue or plot point to move you along, just as you get there. I'd also like to say something about the 'AA' nature of this game. Yes it is smaller in scope. No it doesn't have the combat depth of aforementioned post-apocalyptic shooters, but the game doesn't feel cheap. The world is quite nice, the interchange is tense, the characters and dialogue are all top notch. The combat is decent when you need it and I love counting a single bullet before capping an Outlaw. Solid 8/10. Just what I needed.

The game is great, looks awesome, performance is great too. I love that you can custom tune your difficulty. (Modify Combat, Exploration ETC separately) That's just awesome While I do like the game, even with all "exploration" difficulty settings turned to lowest, the game still doesn't tell you where to go or what to do half the time. I don't commonly play these types of games, so I spent most of my time lost. Also the game tends to not explain why you are doing what you are doing. Motivations aren't clear.

Very good game, the shooting and the survival feeling is very well done yet simple. Not too much useless looting of crafting, no levels, guns feels like guns. A bit repetitive at some points, especially if your seeking for all the endings, and at a certain point the game asks you to go back and forth without a real fast travel system. But yet, It feel very good to just go, shoot, explore, and shoot again

Great game with so much to discover and great graphics as well as a fantastic Northern flavour with attendant welcoming greetings sprayed all over the place :-)
