Fun, albeit short romp
Strike Suit Zero is action packed and sports some pretty decent graphics and when the player gets the hang of the Strike Suit he/she really feels like an anime badass. Accelerate towards a group of enemies, transform and unleash a cloud of missiles then switch back to the fighter and hit your EMP to throw off an incoming missile. Or close with an enemy cruiser, blasting away, then transform and strafe its length taking out turrets and weak points. At its height the gamplay is rewarding but the game isn't without its flaws. The game is quite short, only 13 missions long and 5 simulator missions. While the missions are multi-part, some of them are quite under-whelming and when you compare the number to the older games like Freespace or Tie Fighter it falls short by a long way (only half or two thirds). The game also lacks variety, while it does introduce a lot of new fightercraft as you play, story-wise the player is only ever expected to fly three different fighter types. While the fighters are attractive, I never got a sense for the differences between enemy fighters beyond how much damage they would take. The simulator missions tend to be one-note affairs and rather gimmicky. While there is an interesting underlying narrative, I would rather the missions highlighted more interesting battles from the larger conflict. The missions also go out of their way to tell you what the player should fly historically, but when you get to the fighter select screen that loadout and fighter is not default. You have to create it yourself. One pet peeve I have is that the HUD is atrocious. I don't think it would have been that hard to create a HUD which looks like a little more fighter-like. As it stands, it's literally a drop down menu. Overall the game is fun and worth a bash but I would like to see a more expanded game with a deeper narrative. Personally I never felt that connected to the ships or the other elements in the game, I would like a campaign that builds
Hilft dir das weiter?
