Hunted: Kalevala

"Hunted: Kalevala" well, every now and then Finland steps up to try show Russia that they don't have a monopoly on garbage asset flips. And while some effort may have gone into trying to slap together a game with other people's assets here, based on Finnish folklore, at the end of the day the quality is the same as you expect from other asset flip shovelware. Sure, it looks like a reasonable attempt at a first person action RPG-lite, but the clunky mess is awful to play. The only really notable thing here is the developer forgot to slap a price tag on it... and that's really not great. How are you supposed to get paid for other people's game assets if you don't charge money for them? The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are "borrowed" from asset stores or wherever. Gamers can tell... and it comes across as insincere. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets usually lack the budget and talent to do the rest of the job of game development properly, too, and this clunky mess is a testament to that. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 2 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.

Игра Hunted: Kalevala погружает в атмосферу мрачного, но завораживающего финского фольклора. Визуальный стиль игры, напоминающий иллюстрации старинных книг, обладает особой притягательностью, а мрачные пейзажи и детализированные модели персонажей создают неповторимое настроение. Геймплей сочетает элементы экшена и стелса, предлагая игроку выбирать собственный путь к достижению целей. Исследование мира, богатого отсылками к карело-финскому эпосу, доставляет истинное удовольствие. Несмотря на некоторую неспешность повествования, история держит в напряжении, а взаимодействие с мифологическими существами и древними духами добавляет глубины. Hunted: Kalevala – это не просто игра, а настоящее погружение в уникальную культурную вселенную, которое оставит яркие впечатления.

[h1]Before I played Hunted: Kalevala, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

The environment looks surprisingly good. Especially when considering the state of everything else, like missing animations, missing UI elements (if someone can call this UI), lack of any indication of possible or actual player interaction with environments, no hit animation/feedback, asf ... but the environment looks good

I have no idea what I suppose to do, can't look up controls, invisible walls everywhere. Looks decent and that's about it.
