Great survival horror up until the last boss fight. In fact, all of the boss fights are frustratingly bad but the last one takes the biscuit. These clunky game mechanics just do not work during the boss fights. The game NEEDS a dodge mechanic or a combat rebalance. BTW it's not a skill issue, It's a 'I can't be bothered wasting my time with this crap' issue. Once again, Bloober Team come close to making a classic and then fumble it.
Runs terrible for me with unpredictable stuttering on Medium graphics at 1920x1080. I set the framerate cap at 60fps, but stuttering still happens. The VSYNC option is this game is weird? It's not "ON/OFF", but you have to set an interval. I also noticed that changing anything related to framerate (VSYNC or cap) made the gameplay run even worse until I restarted; the menus were clearly still 60fps. The other disappointment is that my character has a voice. You play as a woman and she sounds a little as though she is impersonating Robocop. Just not what I expected, I thought I'd be a voice-less armor that just shoots monsters, but if I have to play as a voiced protagonist I'd have liked her to sound more normal. But just to be clear, this isn't a dealbreaker, the technical issues are the reason I am not recommending this game. I apologize for requesting the refund, but this was the most expensive game I purchased during this Summer Sale and it's the only one that doesn't work properly, so I just feel really bad about it.
简单难度体验很好,没有弹药问题,打起来很爽,环境气氛不错,但其实也没有特别突出的亮点
游戏背景,美术,恐怖感拉满。迫使我放生鼠标好几次QAQ,不过优化确实拉跨,掉帧严重。如果忽略优化问题感觉能到8/10这样。
A better spiritual successor to Dead Space than The Callisto Protocol.

[b]Tl;dr:[/b] Confusing story but pretty good survival horror. [b]Pros:[/b] + Great atmosphere + Good weapon variety, charged shots felt good + Soundtrack and ambient sounds were awesome + Voice acting was decent + Body horror was pretty good [b]Cons:[/b] - Bolt cutter gimmick was unnecessary and tedious - Lame protagonist. probably due to involvement from woke consultant company Hit Detection - There was no reason to upgrade flamer fuel - Felt like there should have been a defensive move/item or at least a quick turn around - Needed a mod to improve performance (ultimate engine tweaks on nexus) - Confusing story [b]Closing Thoughts:[/b] I waited for this to go on a good sale (got it for $25 on instant gaming) because I didn't care for their SH2 remake but this looked interesting. I never played Dead Space so I can't compare. Enjoyed it overall and might check out the upcoming DLC. On the bolt cutter mechanic: it serves no purpose because every door with a chain is not far from a stash. So you come across the door, run to stash and get bolt cutters, run back to door and unlock it, run back to stash and put away bolt cutters. Same with the flamer fuel, you get them free at save rooms. Also, if you decide to use the Elster mod to swap out the protagonist model, be aware that it crashes the game toward the end and you'll have to switch out. Otherwise worked great for the rest.
This Might be the most underwhelmed I've been by a game, ever. Now Cronos is not a bad game not at all. I just had a lot of high expectations. The game looks great and there a lot of cool and horrifying visuals. But the gameplay just feels so bland and repetetive, I would also say that the game is too long for it's own good. I felt like things finally started to get interesting about 60% through the game, so remove some of the filler beforehand and I think that the game would have felt a lot better to play through. The foundation is great but the game really doesn't do anything else that well. it's more that there are a lot of small design issues or bad decisions that just keep stacking on top of eachother that hurt the experience. Basically I think that this game is worth getting if you think it looks like fun, but I really recommend that you watch some sort of review so that you have an idea of what to expect, unlike me. If you think that the game looks like fun then I do recommend that you buy it on a 50% sale or more (:
Great 3rd person action horror game with some old style item management to boot! Played through on the normal difficulty and felt like it balance the challenge nicely. The early game was definitely survival horror-esque up until the midway mark where you get enough upgrades that makes it more feel like action horror. The story was pretty cool and the atmosphere and world of the game is engaging with both interesting logs from people and also voice messages. Combat feels similar to Resident Evil 4 in all the best ways. I will say though that some of the environmental upgrades you get aren't fleshed out in more interesting ways but doesn't detract from the experience. Going to enter some spoilers her: [spoiler] I finished the game with one ending out of three, to get the true ending you have to play the whole game again on new game +, so be prepared if that's your thing. The new game+ mode doesn't bring anything new to the game, you're just replaying the same game with all your current gear, which feels a bit boring. Outside of that the sections of the game you go to are artisticly cool but also boring in the ways of horror tropes, as a sci fi game it couldn't have been a bit more imaginative, but i'm just being nitpicky. The only other thing i'll mention is that no new enemy types appear in the last 3rd of the game, and start to become a bit repetitive towards the end but not enough to make it boring luckily.[/spoiler] Lastly the game ran great, being it's an unreal engine game! barely any stuttering and never any stuttering during combat! Definitely recommend if you love modern horror games like resident evil 4 or resident evil requiem.
there is only 2 games similar to dead space this game and callisto protocol magnificent game buy it when you have the money perfection
