The Surge

It's super Sci Fi Dark Souls. It pisses me off more than Elden Ring, but mostly because I'm stupid.

The coding for the first boss sucks there 2 healthbars 1 for its health another for the stun i got the stun meter all the way up and the boss didnt stun it took me 6 more hits to stun it for 10 seconds then it killed me and i couldnt heal because it can still damage you when youre knocked down

Maybe it had something to offer back when it was released, but nowadays, the Soulslike genre has much better to offer than this piece of pure jank. Many areas are extremely dark, with a flashlight that only lights up your own feet, and only if you're stationary. The punishment for dying is huge as you only have 2 mintues to reclaim thee XP you dropped, else it is gone forever. This is not helped by how unfair the combat is, enemies taking something like 20 to 30 seconds to kill, when they can just wipe you in two quick hits with no windup. The level design is convoluted and consists of very bland industrial settings that look like they come from an asset pack. Enemy variety is just simply absent, as you will fight the same dude over and over and over again, just wielding some different weapon (and even that is not varied at all). There is no saving grace, stay away. At least they did better with Lords of the Fallen 2.0.

Для своего года хороша. Из плюсов Сеттинг Прокачка разновидная экзоскилет/броня/оружие/дроны/импланты к концу игры можно сделать терминатора, но инопришельцы в конце всё ровно "вихрем" будут проктически ваншотать :D Есть даже глич на прокачку кто не хочет возится с долгим фармом запчастей. Своеобразный фарм комплектов брони оружки, такого вроде ещё нигде не видел, можно фармить боссов на предмет легендарок, выбивать эксклюзивное оружие/броню у мобов из рук (как в титан квесте) Из минусов могу выделить мерзотный лвл дизайн, легко заблудится и есть места где можно застрять. 7 из 10

Очень плохо. Из "+" - необычный для соулслайков сеттинг и попытка освежить боёвку системой конечностей. Из "-" - совершенной ублюдочная камера, идиотский фонарик, отвратительно расставленные "костры", идиотский левел-дизайн, отвратительная прогрессия и в целом прокачка и многое, многое другое. Даже купленная за 300р она вызывает крайне негативные впечатления.

It's okay, but only just okay. 1. Level design has some of the best shortcut tech I've ever seen. HOWEVER, it's also a ton of identical maintenance shafts and identical concrete storage areas. It's extremely easy to get lost. 2. Toward the end of the game I felt like my progression plateaued pretty hard. 3. Bosses are tough, but ultimately fair. The biggest enemy you'll likely face in any of them is the camera, and that's never great. There are some nanite blob enemies in the end that are pretty terrible though. You have to grab them and overload with energy, and there's no clear indication that you're able to do this without rubbing yourself against them (which is basically guaranteed to cause damage). I also don't like the fact that it's essentially impossible to stagger PAX enemies using heavy weapons. 4. I wish parries were better. If you do the special attack after parrying, it will lock you into an animation that allows faster enemies to beat you into oblivion. 5. The ability to jump and duck while blocking is pretty much completely useless. Doing this will never put you in an advantageous position. Even the tutorial enemy that introduces this mechanic proves this to be true. You can ONLY attack that robot from behind, and if you're standing in front of it playing Simon Says, you're not fighting it correctly.
