Good luck getting it to work.

The game is very quirky. The mouse supposedly only works in-game (I've never gotten it to work). You'll get a DirectX error if you try to set certain resolutions. If you have a controller attached the input can bug out. My external keyboard is only detected sometimes. If the game crashes it leaves GOG galaxy in an unusable state and you have to restart the application. Maybe this was a different experience 10-15 years ago but unless you have an old machine to run this on I would pass on it. I got it on sale for ~$1. I wouldn't pay $10 for it.

A truly unique experience.

If you're looking for an easy game, this isn't it. Made in the days where blood sweat and tears was the motto of the gaming industry, this game will confuse and irritate you to no end... in a good way. A limited number of saves that can only be used in specific places will make crashes and mistakes frustrating as hell... but don't dispair! the majority of times that you die will end up resulting in reincarnation later on in the game... which can actually be very annoying if you wanted to keep the person you were playing... This results in a constantly changing experience, with a feeling of permadeath. And then there is the font! I guarantee you will find yourself struggling to understand the majority of documents and street signs until you get used to the... unique... font used. Despite these set backs, I consider them as much of a plus as a negative, because they all add to the atmosphere of a foreign and hostile world, where you could actually die at every corner. The way the game tailors the dialogue as if you are an outsider inhabiting someone's body inside the game world is fantastic too, and very few games have the chance to make this sort of idea work, much less as well as Omikron manages it. I give the game 5 stars for Challenge, Plot, Atmosphere, Music, and Creative nerve. I highly recommend it if you like sci-fi, demons, rebelion, and strippers.

Excellent game... aside from controls.

The controls for this game are incredibly stiff. You feel like you're controlling a robot more than an actual human being. Turning is slow and clumsy, jumping doesn't let you do really anything useful [why it's in the game is beyond me], and you can't really crouch meaningfully outside of combat. Nothing feels intuitive - and there's a lot of stopping and popping into menus to do things - so it's also jarring. This game was clearly made before "context use" was a concept, as you have to keep manually going into your inventory to select an object to use on whatever's directly in front of you. And if you're not right on top of it, your character will just say "I don't understand" and assume you're examining the air. Combat is frustrating, not satisfying, as there's no mouselook for shooting so you have to use keyboard keys to aim properly, and no way to know what you're specifically aiming at. I'm only giving this 3 stars because I love the premise of the game itself and the story seems engaging.

A Classic In Need of a Redux

This game holds a lot of nostalgia for me. I played it extensively when it first released in 1999 and into the early 2000s. At the time it was groundbreaking: a vast open world with complex, interwoven narratives, genre-blending gameplay, and an atmosphere unlike anything else. Released before GTA III, its 3D open-world experience was unmatched for its era. Of course, time hasn’t been kind. The graphics, once jaw-dropping, now feel dated, and the gameplay suffers from trying to be a jack of all trades: part adventure game, part fighter, part shooter. Still, its ambition and unique style make it worth experiencing if you’re interested in gaming history. On the technical side, I did encounter a game-breaking bug in the GOG version (during the factory mission). Thankfully, I found a workaround on the Steam Community forums: hug the wall and jump across the crates to avoid the insta-kill bug. Keep that in mind if you get stuck. What still stands out today is the storyline: a mix of dystopian rebellion and 4th-wall-breaking concepts that was way ahead of its time. The body-switching mechanic also adds a dynamic (and slightly unsettling) twist, something it shared with Messiah around the same era. Overall, The Nomad Soul is a flawed classic: dated, yet still fascinating. It really deserves a proper modern remake or remaster. If I had the time, I’d attempt one myself

Atmospheric and unique.

This is Quantic Dream's best game. The story, characters and atmosphere are so unique and memorable, so much so that I keep coming back to this world every 5 years or so (I've been playing Omikron since 2000). I wish David Cage would remaster his magnum opus, it most certainly deserves to be experienced by a new generation of gamers. NOTE: As of 2024, you can play The Nomad Soul in true widescreen through a fan patch and there's also ReShade to enhance the graphics (you'll need dgvoodoo and DirectX 11).
