Excellent Third-Person Shooter
El Pase, Elsewhere is a third-person shooter about a monster hunter trying to stop the end of the world. It also discusses the topic of healing from abusive relationships. I like the music, the visual style, the feel of the weapons, especially the area-of-effect stakes. The settings allow to have infinite stakes and fight mostly in melee, which I found satisfying enough. The controls are comfortable and rebindable and 5-button mice are supported. The level design is chaotic and irrational and the story backs it up well. The objectives consist mostly of saving all hostages or finding keys and crossing the floor. The aesthetics start with the typical hotel and go places, more unusual with each floor. Due to the ceiling missing for most of the floors, the hostages covered in the rays of light are clearly visible, though finding the path to them is another issue - the levels are labyrinthine. When the last hostage on the floor has been saved, the lighting changes to guide back to the lift, while the foes attack from all sides. It is quite exciting. The models are in the style of PS1 games, though the performance varies and the game does not support the exclusive full-screen mode. However, it is possible to decrease the render scaling. The music is outstanding and pleasant to listen to even outside of the game. I like that the protagonist narrates the things to pay attention to, which I as the player might not notice, whether it is the story relevance or picking up a new gun. Between the levels, there is more lore in regard to the foes and the background story for the protagonist and the antagonist. The voice acting is generally good and the protagonist’s comments are on point. Seeing a guy who both can shoot and has some self-awareness and self-reflection is incredibly refreshing. And there is something appealing in the attitude, in knowing that this is a one-way journey to achieve something good, one last time.
