Neon Tide

Short, boring, nonsensical. All you do is click your left mouse button randomly, as there's no indication when you're actually supposed to do so as with most other visual novels. At a few sparse points you do get to pick between two choices, but I don't know if they make any difference as I can't be arsed to play it again to find out. Hard to believe they actually had a price tag on this before, but hey, it's free now, so who cares.

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

Yıl 2048. "Neon Tide" adı verilen bir virüs, bilinmeyen bir şekilde robotlara yayılıyor. Bu siberpunk dünyası görsel romanında, yolculukları virüsün nedenini ortaya çıkarmak ve virüsün daha fazla yayılmasını durdurmak olan üç karakter olarak oynuyorsunuz.

Neon Tide is not a game, it's an e-book that's been dumped on Steam masquerading as a game. As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay, it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, "How did something this badly written end up on Steam?". When someone hoping to become an author is unable to get published in print, they spend $100 and dump their high school fan-fiction onto Steam, under the guise of a game. This e-book was slapped together with the godawfully bad Visual Novel Maker Visual Novel/E-Book construction kit, so just like no professional writing took place here, no professional game development took place either, it's just a product of filling out templates in the construction kit. There's a really badly conceived "Cyberpunk 2077 is cool so I can be an author if I try copy some cyberpunk stuff" fanfiction that was used to fill out the templates in Visual Novel Maker. And we know it's bad... if they could write professionally, they'd have books on bookshelves in bookstores and wouldn't be paying $100 to get here. At least they're not trying to charge money for this. Visual novels/e-books are tedious at best... imagine the best novel you ever read, be that Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy or 2001: A Space Odyssey or Twilight (if you have terrible taste in literature), but then translate that to a format where the words dribble out and you have to click your mouse every time you wanted to read the next sentence, instead of just turning the pages. You'd think it was garbage. Now imagine that experience, but with much worse writing (because if these guys could write professionally, they'd be published authors and this would be on shelves in bookstores, and they wouldn't have to pay Valve $100 to self-publish this on Steam), and you have your average Steam e-book. One of the chief problems with failed authors polluting Steam with non-game E-books is that E-books can easily just be presented in a web browser... there's no justification for charging money on Steam for what might as well be a webpage. We don't spend thousands on buying a gaming rig to spend money on Steam for something Chrome or Firefox could do. On the upside, the E-Book does feature customisable controls and resolution, so at least some of the basic, minimum requirements have been met. Unfortunately there's a number of other technical defects and shortcomings which contribute to the game being difficult to recommend to gamers. These technical defects push this E-Book below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. The poor quality of this E-Book is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak reader number was only 2 readers. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only reader activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality E-Book is to be expected. It kind of makes you laugh a bit... this would be really cheap to publish in print. You'd only have to print two books and you'd fully saturate the audience. So, should you download this E-Book? You can get better quality books and comics for free online or from public libraries, or from bookstores. Steam isn't a comic book store, neither is it Netflix, it's for games. Your gaming rig is not a Kindle. It's impossible for me to recommend things to PC gamers that aren't really games.

I can't say "Yes" or "No" to this title, but I'm only saying "Yes" just so I can post this review. It could be better, but the music so far matches with the vibe so well. Other than the characters, I'm a little disappointed in the graphics. Much of surrounding environment doesn't seem, well, alive.

Short. Very pretty to look at. Well dome with good music. Really enjoyed the ride. Thanks

Yes.
