Vampyr

Most of the storepage screenshots misrepresent the game. The game has 3rd person,fighting, rpg like gaming. I don't like my time being wasted by misleading advertising. It's a growing problem across the gaming world, whether it is screenshots on a website or fake cinematic adverts on the television.

You know, there are some things I quite like about it. The map and world look quite nice and detailed. The progression system is not bad, decent amount of weapons and customization. Atmosphere is pretty good, has a unique setting. Voice acting is decent and soundtrack is nice. And I was willing to forgive the game for the bad console controls/port, clunky combat system, bugs and gafs, weird animations, amateurish/confusing/vague writing and dialogue, weird game balance. It all started out quite nice, but gotten noticeably worse towards the end of the game. That I could have gotten over. But the consistent nagging and preachiness of the game simply makes me want to murder people. This arrogant pretentious assumption that morality is defined by the political left, while the political right is the source of the worlds evils is a blatant insult. I wish games were tagged somehow that allows the identification of the leftist political propaganda bullshit. Some make excuses for it based on either a unique good story or Dark Souls like combat system. If you think that mandatory symphatising with Romanian communists in London in 1918 during an epidemic while being a blood-thirsty vampire is a standard for unique storytelling, then clearly Im out of the mainstream, because I think its absurd. There are good elements to the games storytelling, but there too many examples of weird and unnatural story-developments to complensate it. I havent played Dark Souls, but if that means that you have to constantly have prolonged fights with groups of enemies and crappy console controls over and over (with little to no reward) just to get to another story objective, well then, apparently Im not in the cool camp again. It does get easy if you devour a third of the games characters, but it still remains overall not fun. Freaking shame such a unique concept is ruined by such poor execution.
