The Next World

Visuals: nice but minimalistic Gameplay: Basic but sufficient for a 5 hour game, though some later-game ideas feel quite random. Story: Very nice original story that makes you reflect about humanity and its purpose without forcing it down your throat. The best part about the game is that it makes you carefully consider your options as your choices can have heavy consequences and you're often trying to make the best out of a bad situation. Disclaimer: I have no idea how I got the game but definitely did not just outright buy it. Maybe out of a humble bundle? Conclusion: Nice and short experience, it has a very short time to beat so it might come down to how much you are willing to pay for ~5h of gameplay.

Very nice game

[b]Achievements are 100% broken in this game[/b], so they'll stay as locked in your Steam UI forever, which is a bit annoying. And apparently the dev(s) no longer support it and have effectively abandoned it citing [i]"It's playable"[/i] , so one shouldn't expect this or any other issues faced with this game to ever get fixed. ( https://steamcommunity.com/app/427860/discussions/0/3159763879064282090/ ) Other than that and a slight waft of "woke" to the game, i can't say i totally hated it. Some might even find it enjoyable if accustomed to reading relatively fat fictional literature about facial expressions, character backgrounds and s**t like that. It's biggest plus is probably that it's got some levels of open-ended'ness to it, and thus some re-playability. [i](Though that'll probably feel quite hampered by the lack of achievements..)[/i] [h3]Buy it at heavy discount only, if ever.[/h3]

Die Story des Spiels ist recht gut aber kurz. Hatte es in ca 4 Std durch. Der Spielteil ist leider nicht so gut gelungen weil man im Prinzip nur bestimmen kann wo man die Vehikel hinschickt, sonst gibt's da recht wenig Management. Hat mir trotzdem Spaß gemacht

Character Shen is always voting to turn you into villain its best to have different option if there was? But I don't think so. Not recommended to anyone to play think if there was other options. like: zero options liked dislike: too many choose from. Personal opinion: make game have better story options then salvage, explore, find another resource if your using rovers? There are no tools gained which bothers me? In mining platform Lucy never get new tools made what heck do colonists do? what are their skills as assets? Playing foolish blame game are they just children in this game have no idea maybe they should question why was I sent million light years away maybe earth is gone? Duh. Blaming and killing navigator is one way screw yourselves. I think whoever plays leader is freaking scape goat there no win win policy much like another game you still die no matter what.

Ok, i like the idea of this game and the characters but i found a glitch where i get no new vehicles after scavaging them, the audio fails sometimes and of course the achivments are not working. Although i enjoyed my playthrough in normal can't recomend such a mess of a game.
