Which one? I have been playing the new one on PC the past couple of weeks. The combat and skill tree are appalling. Great environments, but the game itself is hugely underwhelming.
The new one from Arkane (PS4).
I think I was expecting too much. I was hoping for a kind of mix from Dishonored/Bioshock/Dead Space/Half Life. I was so convinced (I love space) by trailers and infos from here and there, I just bought the game when it was out at full price (I never do that).
Sadly, it was honestly -for me- a full mess and a very bad experience: heavy bugs, boring/tedious gameplay and inappropriate difficulty peaks. I hated this game. I have been so dissapointed... and angry.
About bugs: heavy crash closing the game, long loading screen (when you die...), VERY poor sound mix (too loud or too quiet musics with inaudible voices at the same time "what did he say ???") and one thing especially disturbing me is the sound positioning: you are in a room with a sound blowing your ears (like a motor or anything), then you go through a door wide open and the sound just dissapear suddenly !?
Also, sometimes a sound seems to come from somewhere and it is at the exact opposite direction and you just start to panic when this comes from an enemy transforming. This is so immersion breaking especially with an 7.1 headphone.
Beside this, indeed, the environmment is very compelling and invite to explore and is overall a nice setting (and it started good, I loved the apartment intro) but bugs and gameplay was too much for me.
This is why it is actually my worst game this year even if I can feel the potential the game had... and wasted.
Maybe like I read somwhere: this game is out of its time ¯_(ツ
