Lose yourself into this space station

This game has become one of my favorites. Exploration: One of the best I have ever seen, it has A LOT to explore with AWESOME quality. It creates new ways of exploring, I consider it a pioneer for many mechanics that I really want to see in new triple A games. Most open world games have to learn from this indie game. Believe me, the exploration will blow your mind. 1000/10. Combat: Gives a lot of liberty to the player, You are very fast despite Your build, combines fire weapons with melee weapons in a very satisfying way. Despite that, the enemies and bosses are very easy, the only difficulty for some late-game bosses is the high damage. It doesnt have a great game design for the combat. 7.5/10. The combination of combat and exploration is carried by the incredible exploration and makes You forget a bit the low difficulty. Parkour: Each section is super scary, super special, super satisfying, it really awards skill and guts. There is a problem with fall damage, sometimes You die to clearly low places, take a little jump with 0 fall damage but 1 meter away of it You die to fall damage... The exploration may need You to make clearly way too far jumps, I do not think this situations are enough different to make a logic on when to jump. 9/10 Story, lore and characters: Lore is very interesting but really hard to follow, specially because of the lack of characters or important parts in it. You learn a lot of lore via items descriptions, new mechanics, exploration, etc... Story: Has a lot of interesting plot twists, changes Your point of view in many themes and your in-game objectives, makes You want to explore more and get better details. Characters: There is not a lot of them and You will not find them commonly, some of them feel credible and sum to the atmosphere. Overall 7.5/10. This game is incredible and unique, a true hidden gem. Even if You are not a souls fan, You will really love to explore its world if You have enough time. 9/10

Frustrating But Still Fun

I've never played Dark Souls, so I can't make the obvious comparisons, but this is definitely a sadistic and challenging game where you will die a LOT, and not always fairly. Enemies will ambush you or have attacks that can instantly kill you, and a fall from any of the many, many platforming sections is certain death 95% of the time (it's possible to just take damage, but this almost never happens). Death carries real consequences too, as you'll be sent back to the last checkpoint and lose all of your unspent experience- which can be regained if you manage to pick it up from where you lost it, but if you die on the way it's gone for good, and the enemies respawn. Difficulty aside, the game definitely has issues- the jumping is nowhere NEAR as responsive as it should be, nor is the heal button, sounds or music will often cut out and leave awkward silence, the plot is extremely sparse with almost no characters to speak of, and there were some questionable choices made, such as having lots of items that are mostly cosmetic in a game where equipment stats are critical, adjusting difficulty levels via consumable items, or, infuriatingly, not having a pause function. I can understand wanting to keep the player on their toes, but forcing them to die if they have to pick up a phone call or something is just stupid. If this all makes the game sound terrible... surprisingly, it's not! The levels are gloriously complicated, fun to explore and packed with secrets, the monsters are unique and frightening (especially the Thespians, which I can only describe as vile walking tumors with built-in Shakespearean ruffles), the weapons are varied and have powers to unlock, and the challenge gradually becomes less brutally impossible as you gather levels and items and develop a combat style. The satisfaction of exploration, strategy and hard-fought victory outweigh the frustration. I got this one as a free giveaway, but I'd honestly say it's worth picking up on sale, at the least!

Has potential, but very, very rough

This game has good art direction and several nice ideas. The concepts of weapon affinity (weapons get better with use) and time-related events are interesting and the combat does have a nice punch to it. The levels are are fairly large with a lot of loot and secrets to encourage exploration, which fits the objective of the game - to acquire data. However, there are game design decisions that can make the game more frustrating than enjoyable. For starters, the inventory UI isn't great. It doesn't provide as much information as it should and you can't even see the stats of equipment you craft. Despite weapon affinity being a core mechanic of the game you can't see what abilities you've unlocked, and you can't even review key codes you've found. Another frustrating mechanic is the platforming. Which isn't bad in itself, but you take fall damage and the jumping controls aren't great, which can quickly get really annoying. The difficulty spikes in this game can get absurd. One minute you'll be dealing decent damage, and then suddenly you'll face an enemy that kills you 2 hits and takes little damage. It doesn't help that the hitbox for some weapons are broken; some attacks will just go straight through enemies and deal no damage. It doesn't help that when you die a special enemy type called a ghost will spawn. This was a novel concept at first, but it quickly grew old when they started to make difficult encounters even more difficult. They don't spawn in boss arenas at least. Overall, this game is ok as is, but it really needs another patch to refine it a little more. There needs to be a rebalance and some QoL changes to make it feel like less of a chore to play though at times. Funnily enough, it reminds me a little of Dark Souls II, but with less polish and much worse UI. Whilst the souls games were frustrating at times, they did enough stuff right to balance it out, a balance that Hellpoint lacks at the moment.

Not sure where the hate is from

The game is good. People compplaining about lack of key binding need to git gud. Sifi Souls-like game. If you hate Dsrk Souls then dont download this. You'll hate your life. If you do like DS then download it not expecting it to be DS. I haven't seen any game breaking bugs since I've started playing. Not saying there arent any but I haven't seen any bugs myself. I got this game for free, and would pay for this on sale. The game good but not great. Playable and fun.

Amazing, Immersive, Challenging

Let’s get this one out of the way right at the start of this review. This game is a Souls-like, so if you don’t like difficult, unforgiving combat and game mechanics then this game will probably frustrate you. If you are unwilling to change up your approaches to combat based on which enemy you are facing, learn their combos, adapt, etc then you will have a bad time. I actually read a lot of these reviews and I can honestly say that the majority of the negatives were left in the throes of nerd rage. This game has the tendency of not only being brutal, but also kicking you while you are down repeatedly. Most of these negative reviews sound like they came from millennial gamers who like being spoon-fed. The game itself is so immersive and captivating. The moment that my character awoke in the brine-filled spawning pool all disoriented in a setting that only a Tool song could properly act as a soundtrack; I knew I was in for a good time. Space is awesome and creepy. Throw in a holocaust, people and creatures stirring in undeath, and a demon infestation and you have a downright amazing atmosphere. The combat is done very well. Visceral and deadly like Dark Souls, where a couple of lowly dreg-demons can easily rake half of your life away if you are careless. Combat where you can literally use a concrete pylon ripped from its rebar to smash in the frail, lithe bodies of extra terrestrials. Take the time to learn the flow and it exhilarating. Try to brute force your way by spamming attacks and you will be back here leaving a negative review like the other nerd ragers.
