Brigand: Oaxaca

有很多即视的灵感来源，比如最明显的DE1，以及哥特王朝那种穷酸场景+充满敌意的环境。关卡设计以及所谓“抉择”很依赖自机性能的残障。由于即便“推开一扇门/进林子不被蚊子叮死”都算是主角人生历程中的伟大成就，反过来想平地走两步不摔跤那也属于玩家行为正反馈。比较遗憾的是，作者采用了许多软硬锁来限制玩家整活，尤其是乱杀NPC经常导致流程卡死，自由度并不高。整体而言确实也算自成一派，尤其喜欢那股子厌世消极的独特氛围。 从最后通关的幻灯片可以看出来，每个地区和势力的命运走向处理方式，大多只取决于单个关键节点。想让一个地方迎来欣欣向荣发展好结局？遵循宁可杀错也不放过——把所有人杀了，因为“某个可能在未来干坏事的人死了”，所以就算蟑螂腿都被你吃光了，这里的房价今后十有八九也会高升。

简陋的图像，蹩脚的操作（2017年的游戏不知道还以为1997呢），不要五分钟就能完美劝退大部分玩家，但深入之后会发现辐射，哥特王朝，杀出重围这些伟大作品的特质在它的身上显现，可流程和大部分关卡/路线非常受限，在中后期反复的跑路中也让人疲惫，而且作者既然这么喜欢ImmersiveSim，为什么在正常情况下不设计即时存档呢？每次要跑到床铺（存档点）存档然后在一次死亡后从头再来的感觉真的有点不好受，据说可以通过特殊操作解锁快速存读档，但是这样就解锁不了成就了？.....我永远都不会原谅你的（开玩笑的）

genuinely one of the best games of all time edit: until chapter 9, chapter 9 is genuine on a level of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that i cannot tolerate as unlike the rest of the game which i loved it seems like its a random trial and error instead of just being difficult like the rest of the game.

love the game little difficult to get into at first but its so fun to explore!

I've learned in school that acid rain is often man-made. Brigand: Oaxaca has taught me that the man who makes it is a cackling geriatric who replaced all his meals with cocaine and who will, upon catching a single glimpse of you, announce his current mood in the form of a riddle and approach at Mach 3 to show you the edge of his poisoned katana and the effect of voodoo lightning on your nether regions. We are BFFs now.

Fun for a bit but the jank got to me too much.

This one's great!! One of the hardest RPGs I've ever played but man it is fun if you are looking for more games in the vein of fallout new vegas and deus ex (and if those games don't provide sufficient challenge for you) First playthrough: 30 hours, final score 5/10, difficulty Normal

Greatest first person RPG game I've played yet

It's very charming but very rough around the edges. I love the music and general atmosphere the game has. The writing is pretty decent and the story was interesting enough to keep me going. There's lots of ways to solve problems and it pays to stop and think up new tactics when dealing with enemies. It's a great thing that once enemies are dead, they're dead for good instead of respawning. It really adds to the sense of accomplishment when you take down a horde of demons or some tough hostiles - just don't forget to run back to a bed and save your progress! I'm a big fan of roleplaying and the RPG elements are implemented well from what I can tell from my time playing. I enjoyed myself quite a bit. Now for my problems with it which bother me enough to ruin the experience. It's just very unfair sometimes. Lots of enemies are super fast and they'll jump out at you from nowhere before you have any hope of reacting. There's a lot of trial-and-error in every part of the game I've seen so far. You'll rarely be able to think on your feet in the heat of battle. You'll notice something you can exploit with the terrain or remember a few grenades you had lying around and do better next time with the newfound knowledge you gained on your last doomed run. I'm not sure I'll ever beat this completely, the difficulty gets to be a bit much for me and it makes me angry and stressed. And yet, I still really liked my time with Brigand Oaxaca and I think I'll play more of it in the future. It's unlike anything I've ever played. If you have a tolerance for unpolished games that are very hard, give it a shot. It's definitely got good times to offer if you've got the taste for it.

Good game.
