They neutered this version, from its steam counter part. All the 3 games, have multiplayer, you can tell they removed that, i thought they'd mention they removed it here on GOG but they don't.
That said, the game is alot of fun WHEN you have a friend to play with, the problem is this gog release doesn't have that so your better off looking at the STEAM build of this game, since multiplayer is present, and you can actually enjoy it together vs solo.
I've owned this game for a while now but only just finished this. This game is extremely fun without being cheaty or scummy somehow. I would highly recommend this game to anyone looking for some simple fun. It's not very long but it's worth buying in my opinion
Overall the game is enjoyable. Lots of looting and shooting, a pretty straightforward plot and a cool sci-fi vibe. Not bad at all.
I will, however, mention that there are some bits that don't make much sense, mostly about navigation and the way upgrades work, but these are minor annoyances that don't affect the gameplay too much.
In conclusion, I recommend trying this out. Team17 did a decent job with this one.
Terrible controls and terrible camera make for frustrating experience.
The title says it all. I even managed to play the first game with a little .ini hack that enables proper FPS mouse camera. However - in the second game there are too many parts with fixed camera and controls which make it extremely painful to play - think - you can't see where your aim is, and can't shoot an enemy right in front of you.
About the game itself - it is not good. The games are just the same recycled thing, with different loading screen color. Explosions everywhere. Bugs pop out at the exact same spots at the exact same time. Explosions. The whole progress is: go to point A, something explodes, you can't open door/lift/machinery, backtrack to point B, return to point A, kill some more bugs, BOOM, still something doesn't work - backtrack to point C. It makes the game feel longer, but that is not a positive, it is a chore. Weapon and item upgrades are ~25% improvement. Did I mention that there is stuff constantly exploding around you?
There is some story, in the form of comic-styled cinematics, but nothing interesting enought that would make me force myself to play this mess.
Which reminds me - people compare this games as the better version of Shadowgrounds. The graphics are better. Everything else - gameplay, story, characters - are better in the Shadowgrounds series. At least I had FUN playing them, and that is the whole point of playing games.
Buy if you are curious. At a huge discount. Or better watch a playthrough video. You would not miss much. And laugh at the streamer.
Me? I'm calling it quits. Staring at the wall is a time better spent.
