ROUGH opening hours, but it gets better
Biomutant has one of the most tedious, and uninviting opening sections I've played in recent memory. At an hour in, I was ready to turn it off. It feels almost as a bad as a MMO tutorial at times. However, the graphics, music, and world were just charming enough to keep me going, and I'm glad I did. Once the game opens up, and you're free to craft weapons, fight battles without the intrusive tutorial, or be stopped ever 30 seconds and have the camera ripped away from you control, the game actually becomes OK. Not great, but OK. I've put just under 8 hours in now, and here are my initial impressions. - The K+M controls are pretty bad. It never felt like Biomutant was intended to be played on anything other than a controller. I've tested the game with my Xbox 360 pad, and Dual Shock 4, and both work as intended. It feels considerably better to play with a controller. - The combat is slippery, and for the most part anemic. As cool as the custom crafted weapons are to look at, none of them feel especially good to use. Even the "heavy" weapons that appear to have some weight and momentum to swings still feel underwhelming due to the poor audio and feedback. - The music is nice, albeit poorly implemented. I like the music, but when you enter a city, for example, the way the tracks are mixed is distracting and amateur. - The game runs great for me on my old GTX 970. I get occasional frame drops on MAX, but this HUGE open world doesn't chug even on my older hardware. - The character creator is really cool. Classes feel distinct. - Crafting is satisfying, both visually and systemically. - The story seems fairly basic, but the different clans are neat. Seems like Ottomans vs Japanese? - The presentation is a mixed bag. The narration is fine, but there's WAY too much of it. - There is a lot of heart poured into this game, but it still suffers from undercooked gameplay, and can be boring. I SUGGEST WAITING FOR SOME UPDATES AND A SALE.
