Great scifi apocalypse open-world RPG

I was apprehensive about this game but thoroughly enjoyed it once I gained a few levels and better gear. See, Elex does not hold your hand with enemy scaling. You WILL get one-shot frequently in the early levels (quick save is your friend!), but it was so fun to get some pay back later. The controls are not perfect, but you get used to them. The jet pack concept was incredibly fun! I played through twice to experience two of the three factors and see two different endings. Can't wait for the sequel!

Lots of wasted potential

It's not a terrible RPG, but at the same time there are many holes in the design. Most notably that the world itself is disconnected from lore. There are supposed to be surviving colonies of different factions that don't see eye-to-eye. There is a framework for faction warfare there but the game does nothing with it. Instead the world is haphazardly filled exclusively with creatures with very little meaningful interaction outside of it. It's a disappointment from both warfare and lore perspective. It gets tedious fighting the same enemies which makes you feel like there's not much point to it. The combat would be far more engaging if humanoids got involved. Basically most of which is written in lore is paper-thin with nothing tangible under the surface. I feel they could have just named it "Creepy crawler slayer" - because that's essentially the entire game loop. Nothing really against the creature design or even the combat, it's more that it's the only thing happening in the game. Ultimately it doesn't give you the motivation to play longer than the bare minimum that is necessary to finish the plot, if you can even muster the enthusiasm for that. The lack of lore-based encounters is supremely disappointing, so is the lack of variation in warfare. I think the game could have been very cool if they would bring these "simulation" factions to life and have them play a real part in the world.

good game lacks in some ways

ive played this game orginally on xbox one and it was good enough for me to wanna replay on pc with better fps and graphics the thing that holds this game back really is some the voice acting and combat to people who arnt use to the sort of combat system this game has otherwise i say its a good rpg and i enjoy the story and world enough i havent gotten to elex 2 but im sure that one makes some good improvments in some the areas i mentioned worth it to thoses who want a solid rpg.

Demanding, rewarding, fulfilling

Piranha Bytes have shown again that they are masters of game world creation. No easy way out via level scaling and respawning loot (looking at you Bethesda), every item is carefully hand-placed to keep the pace of the game, there are almost no artificial terrain gates that keep you from content the devs thought you should not see for some reason, which means every discovery you make feels very rewarding. And did I mention the jet pack? I was afraid it would break the game but instead it adds a whole new level of fun! Player that are not familiar with the formula this studio uses to create its games may struggle and find it unfair, player who are used to be pampered by uber graphics might be disappointed, players used to handholding/level scaling/follow-this-little-arrow-and-you-can't-go-wrong-type-of-gameplay might feel lost. That's ok. These games are demanding on the player, but the rewards are great. Free roaming around the world of Magellan, if you put the time and skill into it (aka avoid getting killed/eaten etc). Meaningful exclusive factions, which are by no means black and white. World that exists just fine without you and where you have to work from the bottom to make it take notice of you... and the great sense of reward for your achievement, because you know you earned it yourself and wasn't just given an emtpy title/cosmetic item. I am a big fan of the original two Gothic titles and the first Risen (though inferior in my opinion) and I have been waiting long for something that would fill the need for such games. And Elex delivered. It is by no means perfect and might not be for everyone but know that your gaming experience would be much poorer if you don't give it a chance.
