A flawed gem in Tactics RPG

As a hybrid in RPG and tactics, this game does a really good job. The main two characters, the mutants Bormin and Dux are well written and their dark humour just fits perfectly into the post-apocalyptic setting. Exploring the zone is fun, graphics neat, combat works, also the well implemented stealth element is pretty unique for this type of games. But eh. Some hours into the game, one realises that there could be so much more. It definitely lacks of content. Be it weapon upgrades, equipment in general or enemies. There could be so much more, the game has high potential becoming a truly deep tactics RPG,. Concerning Combat and difficulty in general: I started the game on Hard difficulty but soon regreted it. The changes from Normal to Hard mode are brutal. The least concern here is the bigger health pool and damage output on your opponents, what made me come back to normal diff. was the fact that you don't auto heal after a fight and medipacks are not only rare, they also sell for a pretty penny, scrap-wise AND are limited in numbers! Also: It feels like the game wants to be played on normal, as the health pool of enemies on harder difficulties often is too big to still be able to stealth-kill a solo target in one turn. (At least in the beginning hours, where your character's skills are still extremely underwhelming.) As this is one of the core functions of Mutant Year Zero, this feels a bit unbalanced in general. I'm really looking forward to the upcoming dlc and hope for a content upgrade and some major tweaks in balancing! See you in the zone!

It has its moments

I originally played the demo. The demo impressed me so I bought the game. I had figured well now I had a taste, I might as well enjoy the whole dish. Well there is no whole dish. Story is subpar, an afterthought it seems like. I really enjoyed the quips the characters made when they found artifacts they didn't understand but there was no effort to expand on them and they just become part of game currency. Everything after that is just more rinse and repeat. They have created such a wonderful and amazing world but apart from a few lines by the characters, there is nothing more to it. Maybe I am being too harsh, I dont know. I felt the same way about XCOM 2. I felt it ended too soon.

Good on the start

but loses the quality somewhere on the way. The idea is an interesting approach to the well known cliche of post-apocalyptic world, the gameplay reminds this of XCOM and although simpler, is still fun and can be challenging. The characters are interesting, although required some time of getting used to. Not big fan of shooting ducks, y'know. BUT ... Can't sell equipment. Can't remove equipment from the weapons. Can't afford anything for most of the time. Most of the perks/mutations do not make much difference in combat. And the idea that I must kill several enemies to regain the possibility to use them again is just dumb. This isn't very much visible at the beginning but once the game becomes more difficult, starts to become frustrating. Still, the fun is there. But not as much as I could have been.

A charming picture with a concrete frame

This game is like a train ride. You can enjoy indeed very pleasant view from the window and polite and short chit-chat with a personell (that trully describes scenario depth), but your freedom is limited with ability to open and close your room doors, let a bit of fresh air through the window and order some tea. Everything around your in-game party is so limiting, linear and empty that you can't stand it if you really like to have a game world, not just decorations. You dont' travel locations, you "complete" them once and forever. And with second-third completed map and you already tried everything this game has to offer you. Ok, you got tactics, but role-playing and strategy can be easily thown away from game tags. And - the most terrible part - no quicksave. I'd give this game 4 for it's style, fresh visuals, atmosphere and polished key part of the game - battles, but only if it would have quicksave feature. I wish to forget that feeling of re-saving and re-loading so many times that i began to hate game menu.

Unpolished gem

To keep it short: Pros: atmosphere, world, humor visual style combat mechanics Cons: Seemingly minor and not visible at first glance thing that is sort of game breaking. Got to lvl 60 or so and I realized I need to buff up, the map shows a bunch of visited locations, but doesn't tell you where there are still enemies that you previously avoided and left alive. And defeated groups don't respawn. A cleared area stays cleared. So you can't farm. The shop doesn't allow you to sell your items (even for 1% of the price you'd have to pay if you were to buy them) so you end up with 50 smoke grenades you don't need and low on currency. These two are the biggest sins for me. Fixing those would make it a 4,2/5 game. To make it a 5/5 would require adding more characters, more skills, as of now they are repeated between characters. More enemy types. More guns. More stuff. Also a bit more dramatization would do a lot of good - when you encounter a new enemy type a zoom on him or some introduction. But that's just my taste.
