STALKER in a lush apocalypse
Humanity destroyed the world, and the animals inherited it, after going bipedal/evolving opposable thumbs. Make your own furry mutant, pick your class, craft your weapons and forge your own kung-fu fable. The game is an open-world action RPG that tries to do everything, and so doesn't do anything exceptionally well. You've got basic combat, melee/ranged with multiple weapon types, each with their own weapon skills and combos you can pull by dodging, jumping and attacking in correct sequences; you also got your Mutations that you can unlock with mutation points, and our psychic/chi abilities that require different points- and also some are locked to a Light or Dark moral alignment, which depends on your choices (or whether you kill or pet the collectable critters your catch in your buttrfly-catching net). There's also 6 tribes you can ally yourself with; you valley is surrounded by mountains, and sustained by The Tree of Life- but it's being devoured by 4 World Eater monsters. Some tribes want you to save the Tree, others want you to let it die, because that aligns with their philosphy; There are NPCs who will send you on various fetch quests, and they ALSO kinda care about your alignment for different reasons- there's A LOT to unpack here, and it's all presented in a chaotic mess and a jumble of systems that's terrible, and yet engrossing in a way only Euro-jank games can be. The open world is gorgeous, and the art direction when it comes to enemy design is best describes as "plushies with rabies"- they're all adorable, but also deadly. Combat is fun once you level up a few times, unlock some abilities and then craft yourself some insane weapon or armor- it's an RPG. Loads of people complained about the world being "empty", but I felt that having most enemies be around notable landmarks, and not just out and about was more approrpiate. Overall, despite many of its systems not being fleshed out well, the game's enjoyable. Not most polished, but a ton of fun.
