Retchid

This early access game is pretty fun. It has a lot of potential and I can't wait to see what this game becomes in a year or two.

very nice

Really nice love letter to older FPS games from the early 2000s. Especially inspired by Doom 3. Lots of TLC put into the levels, both in their design, and environmental art. The lighting and environmental story-telling especially add to the atmosphere. You can tell the people behind the levels knows what they're doing, and care. Though, since it's also going for the older fps design of games, it's very un-forgiving. You loose health easily and fast, and med kits/armor and health stations are not common. Same goes for saving. You can only save at stations, and the beginning of a level. Sadly, the combat is not great. I haven't gotten that many weapons yet, just the rifle and shotgun, but this doesn't feel good. Enemies react poorly to gunfire, the gun feedback feels off, you can't run, dodge, or lean, so avoiding gunfire or charging enemies is INCREDIBLY hard. And you can't aim down sights. Despite the work put into the gore, the actual reactions, feedback, and general combat design needs to feel more satisfying and easier to manage when it comes to avoiding damage, since healing opportunities are rare enough. Greatly improve combat, and this'll be a wonderful experience to both newcomers and nostalgic fans alike.

I didn't like it.

I'd say this is the poor-man's DOOM 3, but DOOM 3 is priced lower than this game. That's not to say this is any worse of a game for it as it's clearly inspired by DOOM 3. the bigger differences here being that instead of Mars it takes place on one of Saturn's moons, Titan. And instead of doing all the build-up like in DOOM 3, the station you arrive in is already in disarray. Sadly this isn't my cup of tea as I wasn't a huge fan of DOOM 3, and this game feels a bit more janky in its movement and controls compared to DOOM 3 (no mouse smoothing to be found and lowering sensitivity didn't help as it felt like the mouse was either too fast at 3, and too slow at 2 out of a slider of 10.) I'd say it's worth a buy, maybe at a discounted price.

Retchid is a blast to play and I'm looking forward to the official release. Initially I was put off by the fact that I couldn't map the "right mouse button" to "walk" but I found a workaround with a program called AutoHotKey. This let me assign the right mouse button to the W key. Once that issue was out of the way, it was full steam ahead. (Uh, no pun intended). At first I wasn't sure I liked the game-save system; I prefer to be able to save my games exactly where and when I want. It grew on me, though, and there seemed to be enough Recreation Maintenance Access locations to save my game often enough. I appreciated the presence of the "CD" icon alerting me to a nearby Rec Maintenance Access location. The enemies were interesting and I understood that not all of them were "skinned" (ie: had textures etc added to them) because the game is still in progress. Same with the surface of the water: it didn't ripple but if I stared at it long enough, I noticed that the surface pattern moved slowly. I imagine that, once the game is done, the water's surface will move much more. The underwater locations were quite polished, however, I spent a lot of time wandering around in circles and it sometimes got frustrating. Perhaps the "objectives" information is not finished yet? It could just be me and my not-so-great gaming skills, though. A map would be handy but, I'm thinking that the game engine (Doom 3) is unable to easily provide one. The "jumping puzzles" felt like a real accomplishment when I figured them out. I had a blast riding the drones and it was very interesting trying to learn how to kill the "snakes" which often blocked the vents. I had a lot of fun with this game and I highly recommend it. I can't wait for it to be completed (or, at least, for the next part to be done) so I can continue the exploration.

Even tho the game still needs a lot programming and stuff (like a map for example) I had a lot of fun fighting through the hordes of it. Is the price steep? Yeah i would say so, because it's still very rough and there are still bugs and not a lot of story at all. But the developer is pretty active and gives out a lot of updates, so it's def. not abandoned. But because of the roughness I'm gonna wait a bit more to play it again. Still. It looks good, the design is cool, the monsters are quite fun. Reminds me a bit of Doom.

Abandonware.

[b] Seltsamerweise erinnert mich Retchid vom Spielstart an, an Doom 3 [/b] Für die wenige Zeit die ich Retchid jetzt gespielt habe, fande ich es eigentlich sogar ganz unterhaltsam. +Geheimräume mit etwas Extraausrüstung sind im Spiel vorhanden +Taschenlampe bzw ein Schulterscheinwerfer ist vorhanden -Stellenweise kommt mir das Spiel viel zu dunkel vor -Vertonung ist leider nicht so gut, bestenfalls noch mittelmäßig -Die Spielegrafik bzw die Textur, ist etwas verschwommen, für ein Spiel von 2023 könnte die Textur wirklich schärfer dargestellt werden Die Vertonung ist zwar atmosphärisch und relativ okay, jedoch klingt der gesamte Sound des Spiels irgendwie basslos und flach. Die automatischen Türen klingen hier auch nicht sonderlich eindrucksvoll. Bei Doom 3 klangen die Türen damals noch richtig gut. Die eingesprochenen Stimmen im Spiel finde ich auch nicht so toll. [h3]>>>Ladet mein PS4 Controller-Profil herunter, damit lässt sich das Spiel relativ gut spielen.[/h3]

Uzun süredir böyle bir oyun bekliyordum. Bir doom hayranı olarak oyun tıpatıp doom 3 ün günümüz grafikleriyle, daha gelişmiş halde farklı bir adda piyasaya sürülmüş versiyonu diyebiliriz. Oyun 2023 yapımı ve şuanda erken erişimde. Bu yüzden eksiklikleri var yani henüz tam olmadığını anlayabiliyorsunuz oyunun. Konusu yok gibi bir şey, en azından şuanlık. Direk olarak Titan istasyonunda olaylara doğrudan giriş yapıyosunuz. Tıpkı doom 3'te olduğu gibi bulunduğunuz üste bir şeyler ters gitmiş ve siz tam olayların ortasına denk geliyorsunuz. Grafiksel olarak gayet doyurucu zaten Unreal Engine 4 grafik motoruyla yapılmış. Erken erişimde olmasına rağmen optimizasyon sorunları yok, buda oyunun artılarından. Doom 3'ü zamanında defalarca oynayıp bitirmiş ve atmosferini seven birisi olarak eğer sizde benim gibi doom serisinin hayranıysanız kesinlikle oynamanızı tavsiye ediyorum.
