Kudos for storytelling
I played Vampyr on PS4 at launch. I loved it for the music, world building, story telling and novel narrative mechanics. It had some stand out dramatic cinematics that wowed me. In my playthrough, I deliberately avoided feeding on people and did my best to heal the districts. I found the combat fine, despite the added challenge by choosing not to feed on civilians. One point I appreciated: If you choose to give in to vampiric hunger by feeding on ordinary folk, whilst the protagonist became stronger, it also makes the final boss stronger because it feeds on the chaos you leave in your wake. Refreshing! If you appreciate good dialogue and well crafted stories, I heartily recommend. Less so if you want more action.
