Trepang2

[h1]Who's my favorite little psychopath?[/h1] Об этой в меру прекрасной игре можно сказать многое. Я решил устроить себе небольшое мозгоебство и прошел игру на 100% на режиме ярости. Теперь я точно знаю, слова о просьбе издателя удалить эту сложность вполне оправданы. [b]Чистый мазохизм[/b] Пока что это самая сложная игра, в которую я играл. Может быть, с гайдами и прочим было бы получше, но я решил: если уж страдать, то страдать по полной. На удивление, у меня ни разу не возникло желания дропнуть. Даже когда я пытался пройти одну локацию по 30–50 раз, всё равно получал чистый кайф. Если вы любите траить локации часами и терпеть ваншоты от самых нищих врагов (или вы просто больной, как я), то можете с первого прохождения ставить режим ярости. [b]Стрельба[/b] Стрельба тут сделана вполне хорошо, пушки ощущаются неплохо и звук нормальный. Замедление времени и подкаты добавляют динамики, так что месить врагов не надоедает. Обычный, добротный ганплей, который вывозит за счет хорошего темпа, прыжков и возможности пострелять с двух рук. [b]Графика и местный стелс[/b] Графика в игре вполне неплохая, а физика трупов это вообще отдельный вид искусства. С ней связано много забавных моментов, например, когда я хотел пройти локацию по стелсу, случайно наступал на труп, и он подпрыгивал прямо на глаза ещё живым врагам. Так что скрытное прохождение тут работает по своим, очень странным законам. [b]Умное мясо[/b] Враги на ярости это не просто губки для урона. Они обходят с флангов, закидывают гранатами, координируют свои действия по рации и заставляют тебя постоянно двигаться. Стоит затупить на одну секунду и ты труп. Борьба с таким интеллектом заставляет реально постараться. [b]Музыка[/b] Музыкальное сопровождение вполне хорошее. Тяжелые электронные и металлические треки хорошо подходят по ситуации и добавляют игре отличной динамики во время боя. Музыка нормально вписывается в общий экшен и помогает удерживать темп, пока ты пытаешься зачистить очередную локацию. [b]Итог[/b] В общем, крайне рекомендую эту игру. (Особенно тем, кто играл в F.E.A.R)

Первое прохождение было на сложности Очень Сложно, втягиваешься в игру полностью, сюжет по разумному прост и интересен, однозначно рекомендую!

Rather short, but interesting missions. If you like Bulletstorm / Shadow Warrior / Fear, this is a good choice. Also, very well optimized (except for one mission that somehow dropped my fps during end sequence).

TLDR - Overall I would say it's a good game, but it's only the gameplay that's good. If you're after a coherent story, you'll need to whip out a guide. For me, Trepang2 is a wonderful, linear shooter with very fun levels to run through, even with its (meme?) horror elements that kind of dulled the mood for me in some cases. The shooting, throwing and grabbing all make for a fun time in the 10ish hours you'll get out of this game. But the story is an absolute mess and was very obviously not prioritized. Almost all the information and backstory is only found in hidden intel pieces littered around the maps that you have to go out of your way to find, which takes away from the very chaotic fast-paced shooter that the game is designed to be. The story goes mission to mission, but doesn't actually explain anything or why you do literally anything other than "Company bad, do what you're told". The characters don't mention anything other than "I'm doing my part" and then we just move onto the next bad guy. Avoid reading this part if you don't want spoilers - [spoiler] The literal head CEO that you've spent the game hunting down, in his dying moments, decides to complain that you're ruining everything, rather than explain to the player that he's just like us. That he created horizon to fight back against the syndicate and that the player is just a pawn. [/spoiler] Not to mention, what annoyed me most now that i've finished it, was the fact that the game has a (proper?) secret ending, which can only be obtained by doing a damn hidden drone collectathon throughout the game. I managed to find six out of seven, pretty much meaning that most players won't even get the proper ending unless they go out of their way to find them. So i would have broken the cycle, had i known i'd have to look for them. But i would like to see another game, hopefully it actually makes an effort to flesh out the story and explain what's going on. 7/10.

for almost a week straight, I have played Trepang2 daily, and oh boy has it been a blast for someone who likes shooter games but also has some problem of not being able to play these types of games for what pc I currently have on use. still, even with the fact I have bit old specs and low amount of space for use, Trepang2 has been running perfectly on my pc, even on high graphics which I play on. there have been few times the game has crashed, but it isnt constant, and I can get right back to the action with simple restart of the game. currently I have gotten pretty much all the normal achievements, now its just the difficulty related ones, very hard, extreme, and rage mode. at the moment I have gotten 3 out of 5 main missions completed on rage mode with also two side mission completed, two of the main missions, jorvik castle and horizon HQ are beaten on extreme, and the rest of the side missions are on hard at the moment. for what the game has to offer, I love it, the guns, the movement, all the things you can do and the enemy can do, its amazing. the 24 hours that have been used to this game has not been for nothing, and I will not stop trying to get everything out of this game until I have all the main and side missions completed on rage mode, maybe next have to go try get all the cosmetics while at it. Trepang2 is absolutely worth it. if you like fast pace fps games, get this game now!

I don't think I've ever posted a review on steam before. That being said, Trepang^2 makes me feel like a damn kid again. Game has its issues, but its a four person dev team, the solid 10/10 combat loop and campaign story make me wish for more. Everyone should buy this game so they make a sequel or prequel. I'd die for at least more HVT's. Great game everyone, thank you team Trepang.
