Siren's Well

This is, so far, a very tentative recommend. Let me preface this by saying I am not familiar with this series, I have not played the previous games, but most of my gripes lie in the actual mechanical gameplay, not the story or anything. I have a lot of bad things to say about this game, but I do want to recommend it to people. I'll talk about my issues, and if you're able to put up with indie game jank, then this might be for you. I have not gotten very far, but it's been rough up to this point. The UI is not very good, besides being a little clunky it's also slightly buggy, and just not intuitive really. Additionally, there is no tutorial. You have to go into the options to see what buttons to hit for things, and while most of the controls are intuitive to someone that's been playing video games, especially survival horror, for a long time, it's still not a great way to start any game. Animations are rough, voice acting is REALLY rough, dialogue is... I don't know, nobody talks like that. I'm not talking about the mentally ill patients you fight, I'm talking about the main character, a sound of mind, Korean American person. She talks like her dialogue was written by a middle schooler failing English class. That's a little harsh, I get that, this is a solo project and props to the dev, the game looks great. It just doesn't play great, and I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it enough to continue. Combat is incredibly clunky. Enemy animations happen much faster than yours do, so unless you're actively dodging when the animation starts, they're going to win the knife fight. Not only that, you get stunned for quite a while when you take a hit, sometimes long enough to get hit twice by one enemy. And if there's two enemies in the room? Good luck. And when enemies fall over after taking some damage, you're supposed to stomp them to death. Not only is there no feedback for this happening to prove you're doing damage (aside from some really rough blood textures that overlap anything in their physical space, it looks bad), there's no feedback when they ARE dead, so you have no idea if you've stomped them enough. Edit note: I've been informed by someone in the discussion section that it can take 18-20 stomps to kill an enemy. I think this is objectively bad design. I have nothing else to say on that. Side note, I shot an enemy in the head, their head EXPLODED and they fell over dead. A few moments later, their head reappeared and they got back up to chase me around. I'm unsure if this is a bug or not. There's obviously a lot of care put into the environment and, for what it's worth, the character models. I have very few issues with those, other than the animations used for most actions, but I won't get into those too much outside of what I've already said. The game, for the most part, looks good. It's on whatever the most recent major Unreal version is, and it shows. I have a sour spot for the Lumen tech, because of all the visual artifacting it does, but that's not the game's fault. In a very rough conclusion, I have a lot of bad things to say about this game but it's way easier to focus on the bad than the good. I think it's worth it, if only to support a solo dev, and I do hope he makes more games. I also hope he takes the criticism in stride, and hopefully polishes up some things in future projects. Supposedly he might remake the other two games and bring them up to this game's standard (which worries me for the state they're in currently) and if he does so, I might check out the new games.

ESSE JOGO É HORRIVEL!!!!

Ta bien, si ^^

Ближе подходит к геймплею Lust from Beyond или Lust for Darkness, чем The Killing Antidote. Проходится за +-4 часа с тупняками, из-за неймоверного количества бектрекинга. Первая глава разительно отличается от второй, что, как по мне, большой плюс. Впервые в своей жизни я был недоволен, что сюжет поместили в кат-сцены, а не в записки, потому что эти пролётки невероятно медленные, и в какой-то момент начинаешь просто скипать все эти ракурсы на потолок, пол, окна, перед супер-мега-гига-драматическим диалогом о сперме на губах. Купил игру так как хотел понять чё у вас тут твориться перед выходом второй части, где какие-то фурри лисички плотно наяривают пожилому - ничего не понял, но очень интересно. Музыка 100/10, но все эти обрывания при переходах туда-сюда, 15 метров от босса, 10 метров от босса, я как будто телефон не заблокировал и положил в задний карман перед поездкой по сельской дороге. Кароч, срань, но советую, если понравились вышеупомянутые Lust from Beyond, Lust for Darkness, но не советую если пришли за динамичной тряской сисяндр и жопок при плотной стрельбе из крутых пушек по fat-ugly-zombie. Ах да, разраб закрыл сиськи до первого прохождения игры, асуждаю.

Отлично))

Sajnos nem tudom ajánlani. Nagyon megbántam. Nevetséges harc rendszer, unalmas játékmenet. A legidegesítőbb, hogy a zenét nem lehet kikapcsolni. 5%-ra lehet maximum lecsökkenteni a zene hangerejét. Engem a játék érdekelt nem a zene és nem szeretem, ha nem adják meg a lehetőséget, hogy döntsek... Itt kötelező a zenét is halgatnod. Emellett az átvezető videók rettenetesen unalmasak. Nézheted a területet, ahogy a kamera végig megy rajta. (Az átvezetők legalább 70%-a ilyen). A karakter mozgási sebessége nincs arányosságban az enemy-k sebességével. Nézz meg egy videót egy boss fight-ról és megérted mire célzok). A karakter mozgása is színvonalon aluli (itt arra célzok, hogy a karakternek relatíve kevés mozdulata van, még sincs szépen kidolgozva... Az árához viszonyítom a karakter esetlen mozgását, akkor a karakter mozgása színvonal alatti). Van azért pozitívum is. A sztori és a párbeszéd szépen ki van dolgozva. Az enemy-k stílusa lenyűgöző. Van benne szexuális töltet, viszont nem lépi át azt a határt, hogy a horror rovására menjen. Itt muszály megjegyeznem, hogy van pár erősen szexuális töltetű átvezető. Ezek igazából rontják a játékban lévő bújtatott szexuális hatást, mivel az átvezetők nélkül nem lenne ennyire egyértelmű. A területek is jól meg vannak csinálva. Nem ilyesztő, viszont meg tudja teremteni a hangulatot (De amikor a zene megszólal, akkor mindent elveszít nálam).
