Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

[h1]Un joyaux incroyable[/h1] Ce jeu est bien meilleur que je l'avais imaginé... et pourtant je suis fan des Wolfenstein. Que ce soit le gameplay varié (exploration, énigmes de qualités, combats variés, infiltration de bonne facture) Que ce soit l'histoire et l'ambiance qui retranscrit parfaitement les films de ce héros Ou les graphismes absolument superbes Tout me plait énormément. Bien que je suis encore loin de la fin je n'ai pas pu m'empêcher de poster mon évaluation, tellement je suis enchanté. Je ne vois pas comment je pourrais changer d'avis une fois ce jeu finis. Si vous hésitez encore à l'acheter, si comme moi vous ne jouez pas sur le gamepass, sautez le pas, vous ne le regretterez pas. [h2]PS : jouez le jeu en VOSTFR[/h2]Le doublage d'Indy en VF est complètement foiré, le doubleur étant un vieil homme avec toute la tonalité lié à son âge, alors que l'on joue un homme encore jeune. En Vo la voix correspond parfaitement à son âge. __________________ Comme les jeux Microsoft ne permettent pas la VOstFR par défaut (si tu passes les voix en anglais les textes sont aussi en anglais) il faut faire une petite manip assez simple : 1 / sur steam, Cliquez droit sur le jeu > Propriété > Fichiers installés > Cliquer sur le bouton "Parcourir..." 2/ Double-cliquez le dossier "base" puis "sound" puis "externalsources" puis "pc" 3/ renommez le dossier "fr_fr" en "fr_fr_BAK" (au cas où vous voudriez repasser en voix FR sans avoir à réinstaller le jeu) 4/ Faites une copie du dossier "en_us" et renommez cette copie "fr_fr" Et voilà le jeu en Français aura maintenant les voix en VO.

[h1] A Masterclass in adventure games [/h1] This game is perfect in every sense. The story, gameplay, graphics, simply fun to play from the beginning 'til the end The game also has a lot of content for it's price and genre. One of a few where doing a 100% run is accessible and rewarding (for the most part). Exploring levels is fun, puzzles are not trivial and sometimes can make you sit on them for a solid 20 minutes or so. That's not to say the game is absolutely perfect, you will surely run into immersion-breaking bugs or have a problem finding that one note or ancient relic, but in general the game is phenomenal, definitely give it a try!

boring gameplay and weapon system, exploration mostly only rewarded with useless collectibles

not terrible but controls are bad for fighting and performance is horribe

箱庭考古画面顶尖，显存消耗恐怖，高画质易闪退

不是什么苦大仇深的严肃剧情，轻松欢乐的旅程反而让我更喜欢。 其实之前在xgp已经玩过了，趁着夏促补个票。虽然销量好像不太好，但千万要出续作啊！ （乔尔的演员在这里面的造型还是蛮像的，但是长得太聪明了一点，少了一点福特那种呆呆愣愣的气质。） 总觉得声音怪怪的。我用的一对2.0音箱，一旦离远了npc声音很不自然，感觉就是单纯的减小音量。

I really enjoy but don't necessarily love Indiana Jones. I loved Machine Games' work on The New Order, and utterly loathed The New Colossus. And now The Great Circle is one of the few games I've 100%'d on Steam. Machine Games nailed the brief. An absolutely authentic and passionate labour of love to Indiana Jones, and total commitment to the tone, prose, ethos, and style of the first three films. It's shot, written, and presented like a secret fourth film we should have gotten. It's funny, exciting, and totally engaging, with a tremendously enjoyable cast, fantastic villain, and Baker delivering a mostly remarkable Ford impression. There's Escape from Butchers Bay DNA throughout, which isn't surprising given Machine Games is made up of many ex-Starbreeze. The game affords adventuring and action in just the right balance, with puzzle solving and secrets that avoid handholding. It's maybe a little too simple in its stealth and action, and maybe a little janky at times, but this is the perfect example of where grievances with individual game systems are easy to ignore when you appreciate how they all come together to make a collective interactive whole. Everything intersects with each other, and the experience you have, just perfectly. The DLC was a wet fart and particularly frustrating if trying to backtrack through and get all the notes. It's not awful, the story/tone/ideas are lovely, but it's very linear, offers little agency driven adventuring, and you spend way too much time underground. Not a single new game system or mechanic to experiment weakens it too. I played through with path tracing and the game is outstandingly gorgeous. The major grievanecs I'll give the production are that the Thailand chapter, while still great in my opinion, feels a bit undercooked compared to some of the other hubs (maybe intentionally so, to ensure it moves a bit quicker). It also has absurdly high VRAM requirements compared to literally every other area in the game, which can easily result in VRAM ceiling bugs if you're using path tracing and a high resolution. Just a clumsy handling of memory that spikes in an unfortunate way in this specific chapter. Even some of the cutscenes (not all) in this chapter felt a bit under polished. But it's still great and picks up from there. Overall, loved it. Huge winner for me and I couldnt' recommend it enough, especially if you just really want a long, committed single player adventure game that's a bit Wolfenstein, a bit Uncahrted, a bit Escape from Butchers Bay, and a whole lot of Indiana Jones love.

[b]A Rough Start Saved by Giza[/b] 🪢🤠 I went into this game with high expectations after reading reviews, and for the first few hours, I genuinely wanted to turn it off and refund it. The story was incredibly boring, the game crashed frequently (thankfully, there are autosaves, but still unacceptable two years after release), and enemies somehow had x-ray vision. As a casual fan of the movies (I still love the chilled monkey brains scene!), it just didn't hook me. But then I reached Giza, and everything clicked. The environment and atmosphere there are beautifully crafted, and the game finally became fun. I am disappointed in many aspects, but I am rating the game objectively for what it is, setting my emotions aside. It's proof that it's better to go in with zero expectations. In my personal opinion, the game is not worth the full price, and I highly recommend waiting for a sale. ➕ [b]Pros:[/b] [b]Giza & Environments:[/b] The level design and environments are really well done. Once you hit the Giza section, the atmosphere completely changes, the slump breaks, and the game finally becomes genuinely enjoyable. [b]Forgiving Climbing (mostly):[/b] The climbing mechanics are primitive and straightforward, meaning you usually can't mess it up and it flows quite well. ➖ [b]Cons:[/b] [b]Price vs. Playtime:[/b] For a 70 euro base price, you are strictly paying for the brand. The main story is only about 15 hours long. I maxed out the game (all achievements, every house, every key, plus DLC) and it only took me 28 hours—and I'm no Sherlock Holmes when it comes to finding things. [b]Frustrating Weapon Drops & Bugs:[/b] Indy constantly drops his melee weapons just to open a gate, forcing you to pick them up again—incredibly annoying early on. Additionally, the camera and journal are very buggy (I had to equip food just to make the inputs register), and the game randomly switches your tracked quests. [b]Terrible Companion AI:[/b] NPCs constantly stand in the worst possible spots and block your path. During a light-beam puzzle, Gina literally stood right in the beam like a statue, making it impossible to solve. [b]Clunky Ledges & Crashes:[/b] Despite the simple climbing, Indy often refuses to grab ledges, leading to countless deaths. Plus, the game still crashes quite a bit for a two-year-old title. [b]Final Score:[/b] 6.5/10 [spoiler]I honestly completely forgot about Gina the moment Pailin appeared. There is no more beautiful woman in the game. Next to her, Gina looks and acts like an undeveloped young boy XD[/spoiler]
