About
The prologue to Deserter is a free, standalone chapter that introduces you to the bleak world of the main story.
You are John Holden, a soldier broken by endless bloodshed and lies — witness to something that can’t be unseen. With no way back, there’s only one option left: escape.
Time is short. Each night is a chance to prepare, but every misstep brings you closer to death on the front lines. Evade the night patrols, steal supplies, craft tools, and strike secret deals with fellow soldiers. Can you make it out unnoticed? Or will you vanish in someone else’s war?
A unique blend of stealth and RPG genres
Stealth, deception, thievery, and careful planning instead of direct combat
Atmospheric, detail-rich locations set on the front lines and inside a military camp
Multiple escape routes with distinct challenges and consequences
A grim dystopia filled with satire and dark humor

Deserter es un RPG muy intrigante con un estilo bélico. Tiene escenas cinemáticas muy bien diseñadas y una historia interesante. La mecánica del juego es muy similar a la de This War Of Mine: búsqueda, comercio y sigilo. Mientras jugaba, experimenté una agradable sensación de nostalgia. Me encanta el estilo simple y los buenos gráficos del juego. Sin embargo, algunos botones de la interfaz no son muy intuitivos (como el botón de volver al juego en el menú Escape). Además, las posiciones de los PNJ podrían ajustarse un poco; esto rompe un poco la inmersión cuando te agachas con cuidado entre los enemigos y ves a tu camarada de pie en una pose inactiva, sin esconderse ni agacharse a pocos metros de enemigos armados. Esto es todo lo que pude encontrar; en lugar de eso, fue una experiencia extremadamente agradable. Estaré esperando una versión completa.

This legit feels like absconding zatwor its that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fustrating at times. MY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ GOD THIS AI can somehow see you through walls, through wooden doors since when did they get xray goggles??. I spent atleast half my playtime trying to figure out this buggy ♥♥♥♥. The other half on the death screen or waiting for the snail paced ai to ♥♥♥♥♥♥ move xd Positives of this game well it has good performance but for some reason the game is running at 60hz not what my monitor runs at. It has pretty much perfect ultrawide support atleast for 3440x1440. Cool artstyle with voice acting and same goes for cutscenes. If the issues were resolved and maybe made quests abit more streamlined it would make this game way better. Now for the negatives, The ai makes literally 0 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sense in one save they will insta spot through walls, doors, then other times after i die they have stage 4 cataracts. There is literally 0 inbetween. The stamina system drains IN 2 SECONDS and refills in 3 hours. If you quick save alot you will probably encounter where it says it saved but when you die right back to previous checkpoint like you never even saved in the first place. I also noticed im standing outside enemies cone of vision yet im still being seen. Good to see its getting updates and not being straight up abandoned like many games these days. Im honestly gonna give this a 5.1/10 its edging into a negative review due to issues that can make a man go insane. Probably won't pick this up when it comes out its just not it chief.. Its just not my cup of tea i spent probably close to an hour waiting for enemies to pass me or JOHN IS DEAD screen.. This felt abit like watching paint dry..
Sigo esperando a que saquen el juego completo, me encanto!
так товарищи,ждем полную версию мне понравилась первая игра которую ребята сделали но это совсем другое и изметрия к месту и сама игра с учетом того что это пролог очень заинтересовала,как сказал Фрай в Футураме вот мои деньги гони это сюда))))
This is more than I have anticipated. Good story, stealth and good voice acting too. The only downside is now I have to wait for the full release of the game because the demo is too short, shorter than even this prologue.
It's a nice toy with this kind of view, but it's a pity that it's a demo.
Good stealth game Rewind mechanics is good also Subscribed to main game - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3248910/Deserter/?curator_clanid=44442902
新作尝试的改变非常厉害,但是目前尝试下来有几个难受的点希望可以改进。由传统的鼠标点按变成了WSAD,是不太习惯,但是尚可接受,但是背包过小、工具占比过高,导致还没开始偷,要么工具没耐久了,要么背包没空间了,又没有合适的箱子可以随时存放,始终感觉很不爽,希望正式版推出的时候可以改进
