A Good Game Marred by Politics

It's been a while in the waiting, but Control has finally dropped and it is everything I wanted (so far) for it to be: foreboding, atmospheric, and d**n pretty on the eyes. (Not that that has any real bearing on my review; it's just nice to know that my RTX card finally has something to do.) The controls are nothing to write home about but I mean that in the best way possible. They feel much like any other TPS and are fluid enough to make the player feel like any deaths received are not the fault of clunky or unresponsive controls. The colour palette is an interesting blend of concrete, blood and blinding white light - all of which reinforce the brutalist architecture of The Oldest House and helps reinforce the theme of a fish way, way out of water. I have read some reviews describing the acting as, generously, wooden. This would be a complaint of mine were it not for the fact that this game wears its references on its sleeve. The acting couldn't be more out of Twin Peaks or Requiem For a Dream if it tried - again reinforcing this atmosphere of "something" being wrong with the world. The largest source of reference, to anyone in the know, comes from the SCP Wiki. In my opinion, the Federal Bureau of Control is what happens when the Unexplained Instances Unit gets the funding it needs and has the firepower to make the SCP Foundation and the Global Occult Coalition turn the other way. (Check out the wiki articles and The Exploring Series on Youtube if what I just typed has gone completely over your head.) This game is probably one of the most foreboding (which does not mean scary) games I have played in a long time. It's a shame that the developers decided to let Epic have it for a year. Had it been released on all platforms last year it could have generated more buzz. It's still a great title, but in my opinion should only be purchased on sale. The developers need to know that we will not tolerate turning the PC market into another console market.

i cannot even play the game . G O G in there great wisdom gives me the error message ...cpu not compatable, does support sse 4.2 ....whatever that is ? so they let me buy the game, install gog, and then install the game, only to get this error message ! what a waste of time and money ! a list of games that need sse 4.2 would be a sensible idea, so we know not to buy these games, until we have upgraded....but that would be TOO sensible. i will stick to STEAM oin future !

I've got bored after 30 mins

Optimization is awkward - 40 FPS, when there is only face of main character on screen. Story could be fun ... in 97. Gameplay is so poor, I've seen more advanced gameplay in games twenty years ago. Indigo prophecy has much more interesting story in comparision to this.

The characters, story, and plot in this game are so contrived and nonsensical that the only way a person could believe it's a decent game is if they're under mind control. So I guess the title fits.

This game is a masterpiece.

In this game, I can proudly say "Dead, Dead on the floor!" when my foes are murdered in cold, non-violent blood! This game is vaguely parkour-based, but with the ability to scream "Dead, dead on the floor I say!" Yours truly, Ethan [ P . S: I have refunded this title. ]
