Scorn

Haven't finished it yet but this is basically the Dark Seed sequel I always wanted. Environments are breathtaking. Puzzles are well designed and interesting. Combat is hellish and painful, bordering on frustrating but... befits the mood.

AWESOME

This game was interesting. I want to promote great artwork and assist publishers in enjoying this field. However, nothing I say beyond this point will be in favor of Scorn. Scorn is a chore at best. It is a poorly-directed art project with little gameplay. Many users will mention "puzzles." There is one puzzle in this game immediately near the beginning. It is a simple parking lot jam puzzle. Takes <8 minutes (and that is a VERY liberal estimate). Really, Scorn is an art book with no game direction whatsoever. There is no story, no guidance, and no repetition. I did not find the game interesting whatsoever. It was a slog with forgettable passageways, forgettable interactables, and forgettable enemies. Frankly, I am in total confusion why combat was included whatsoever. I am confused what the meaning of this was intended to be whatsoever. You will find no gameplay and no deeper meaning, but a brutally boring walking simulator. Half of your gameplay, and sometimes more, will be viewing the animations. Genuinely, the game ends with you holding the W key for a whole minute. No, I am not lying. Further more, why is this 29 GB? It doesn't look good; it is recycled textures for 4-8 hours. This is, at best, gore and violence for the sake of such things. I cannot commend such a project. If you're a completionist, I would wait until this one goes free. It is inevitable.

Un jeu que j'ai commencé sur steamdeck mais que j'ai du poursuivre sur PC dès que la mécanique de combats a intégré le gameplay. En effet, si les combats s'intègrent bien à l'ambiance macabre et stressante de la situation avec notamment des points de récupération de vie et de munitions assez rares, ils sont si punitifs que je n'avais plus la patience de les tenter aux josticks. D'un point du gameplay c'est même un point noir puisque je me suis retrouvé plusieurs fois à chercher à me suicider pour reprendre la progression un peu plus tôt afin de tenter un nouveau passage en économisant d'avantage mes précieux pt de vie. Les nombreux autres avis sont unanimes: Artistiquement le jeu est une franche réussite. Si vous cherchez une ambiance cauchemardesque, gore, macabre, dérangeante, vous serez ravis. Si vous cherchez un gameplay solide ce sera la déception assurée. Enfin pour ce qui est de "l'histoire" c'est mitigé. On peut adorer comme détester. Elle est obscure, incomplète, perfectible, difficile à cerner en sommes. Mais si on prend (franchement...) le temps de l'analyser, elle reste néanmoins très cohérente et profonde. J'avais longtemps lorgné sur Scorn en attendant une promo et le temps libre pour me lancer dessus. Aujourd'hui je comprend tout à fait la note globale des avis assez mitigée malgré un visuel superbe. Le mien reste toutefois positif car si tout n'est pas parfait dans Scorn l'univers reste une œuvre de grande qualité. A vous de voir.

Fezes! De graça ainda tá caro!

This is undoubtedly Geiger's best work in a video game. The atmosphere, the design elements, the art direction, the sound, the gun mechanics, and even the lore are epic. First, I played it on a friend's PC. Then I bought it and played again. Finished the game completely this time, and my only complaint is that the game ended and I'm left wanting more. Seriously, we need more Scorn. Can't believe we may never get Scorn 2. Guess I'll just have to play it again and again. Still, I'll give it a 5-star rating. Scorn certainly achieved it. It's an easy recommendation for anyone who's into psychological, body horror, and traumatic game experiences. Even if you are not into these, you should still play it anyway. Now that we are done with the positives, there are a few negatives as well. The main issues is its repeated enemy types. You will be facing the same two type of enemies most of the time in Combat. Next is animation speed. Some are fine I would say, even the healing one. However, the gun changing controls and gun swapping animation is the worst part. There are some minor negatives as well, but majorly it's the lack of enemy variety and animations for me.

Омерзительно, но как глубоко

Beautifully made, just throws you right in there

Magnificamente nojento.

Все говорят про метафоры рождения, а по мне — это чистая игра про семейный быт и развод. Сначала жил нормально, потом на шею села ОНА. Первое время вроде дополняли друг друга, но потом она начала жрать тебя изнутри, пить кровь и контролировать каждый шаг. В итоге ты собираешь остатки здоровья и идешь в ЗАГС (с крутой архитектурой, кстати). Проходишь через адские суды, где на специальном хирургическом станке у тебя с мясом отрывают половину нажитого имущества. .И вот ты, израненный, выползаешь на волю, где тебя подхватывают две близняшки (мягко говоря, на любителя, но выбирать не приходится) и несут навстречу светлому будущему. Впереди маячит свобода: пиво в гаражах, пятничные стрипбары и спокойная жизнь. Ты уже на пороге... но бывшая настигает тебя прямо на крыльце суда, намертво прыгает на спину из-за угла и окончательно добивает. Мужики в гаражах так тебя и не дождались.
