Mirror's Edge™

Rare case of "its better then I remember". Im gon grind the £vč̣k out of time trials now. Honestly i have never seen a game with a similar vibe. Looking back animations are a bit goofy and honestly i hate "blues" because it hinders exploring. But its a package, you take it with all ups and downs.

无论是人设玩法还是这种叛逆的艺术表达都是当年美国街头很时髦的东西，放到现在可能得叫美式复古了。玩法为跑酷和战斗，不过跑酷的判定点给的很小，战斗更是依托，体验说不上好。对于游戏的美术早有耳闻但实际体验下来还是挺惊艳的，用极简色彩碰撞来作为视觉引导确实很天才，哪怕我这种对美学一窍不通的人也能感觉到扑面而来的高级感。但有的时候没对上制作组的电波也会因此迷路卡关，只能说弱引导不得不品的一环。 另外如果你的屏幕是2k及以上就建议别考虑了，老游戏没做适配1920或往下就填不满屏幕往上反而会糊掉。

Wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. Very much a game from 2009 (could use a remake), some jank in controls/direction and an annoyingly low FOV, but there's also something lost today about this era of game with no nonsense or unnecessary noise, just load the game, click play, the game knows what it's trying to be. Some level designs are truly well done, others more frustrating, it can be confusing where to go when the linearity is punishing if you didn't go the optimal route they intended. It's an ambitious title for 2009 for what is ultimately an Xbox 360 game, and for the most part it's a lot of fun. When the game flows it's great, but sometimes the idea is better than the execution which can break the immersion on a first playthrough, although subsequent playthroughs would probably be more enjoyable when you're familiar with the levels and objectives with less room for error. When playing I would imagine if someone like Valve were in charge of the game's idea, because the potential is obvious while the implementation from EA doesn't always hit. The music, vibes and atmosphere are where it truly shines. It has a Matrix-esque gameplay loop set in a dystopian future which is immersive and cool running around rooftops in a city that feels alive. While the gameplay mechanics could be tighter, the movement could be more tuned, the flow could be more intuitive on a blind run, it's short and sweet with a unique premise and is a lot of fun from an era of gaming that is missed these days, where AAA developers would take risks and try to make something unique and different. Also no unnecessary third-party launchers or extra crap involved for this EA title. Thumbs up for that.

Mirrors Edge set the stage for modern video game movement in my opinion.

Стильная, красивая, медитативная игра своего времени. Очень классная, когда паркур родился и через пару лет умер.

Mirror’s Edge (2008) remains for me today a deeply nostalgic experience that hits right in the chest. It hasn't aged a single day. I always come back and play from time to time without getting bored of it even I played so many hours. I feel the same for Mirror's Edge Catalyst that I own on EA App. When the ambient, ethereal soundtrack by Solar Fields kicks in against that perfect blue sky, the melancholy is instant. It remembers me of being a child trying to climb the towers and run over those buildings near my grandma's house, under the sunny blue sky in the summer school holidays when everything was so calm and peaceful... Can't wait to play this amazing masterpiece on Steam Frame VR headset!
