Great game treated unkind in production

I loved this game. I have played it for many more hours than is necessary but I can also appreciate why it wasn't that successful. Pros: The game is still beautiful after nearly a decade. Only one or two glances at the skybox (especially in "Boat") look somewhat dated now but the rest, especially Faith's movement, look great. The stark white art style is also really intriguing. The soundtrack, sporadic as it is, is fantastic. Check out Solar Field's other work while you are at it! The core gameplay works perfectly. I remember people complaining about imprecise controls when it came out but it always felt fine on my keyboard. Cons: Reportedly some 70% of dialogue was cut. It shows. Characters are painted with the broadest brush, motives remain unclear and world building is very sketchy. It seems to be an interesting world though. There a few scenes where violence seems the only option. Sad. A lot of the game is not set on roofs but in various indoor locations... pretty sweet ones sure, but the roofs are just more fun. So it remains a great looking, great playing game where characters do weird and dangerous things for very obscure reasons in a world which is not easy to get a handle on. If you can ignore that... get to it and.. run!

God-like game

Parkour is super smooth. The game motivates you to want to replay levels to clear them faster and in a cooler way. The soundtrack is super cool to and fits the futuristic atmosphere so well. :)

If it's on sale maybe consider it

It definitely shows it's age! There's not the same polish and attention to detail that modern games have but it's not necessarily bad. Just a little rough. Some levels are poorly designed, voice acting is sub-par and some animations should have been tweeked a little. All in all, if it's on sale I don't think you'll regret buying it, but it definitely feels like an old game.

Enjoyable Experience with a Shallow Plot

PROS: Unique concept, Surprisingly well working movement controls, Interesting art style, Beautiful soundtrack (really sets the mood!), Nice funny easter eggs (some of the screens in elevators are hillarious). * CONS: The main game is rather short (on the plus side, there are Time Trial Races + Speedrun Challenges, which are fun to play and can expand the gameplay time a lot, not to mention the game itself is probably worth replaying at least once), The storytelling isn't very good (for me, it failed to explain/justify why are the Runners wanted so much by the government and the plot twists felt somehow cheap/cliche, plus it also failed to deliver a real sense of dystopian future - I would expect cops/army regularly patrolling the streets and posters/screens spreading propaganda everywhere - but you don't really get to see much of that), Some parts become a little frustrating after dying a couple of times in the same spot and trying to get through over and over again (at least the checkpoints are quite frequent, so you usually don't need to replay a long segment to get where you were) * OVERAL: Despite the fact that I listed more cons than pros, I really enjoyed playing this game and probably will play it again. (I lost patience in some of the combats and just shoot down all the enemies - but I want to try a "clean" run - without killing anybody - as well, probably in a hard mode which unlocked after completing the game, to make things little more interesting... :) ) I really liked its atmoshpere and some parts really make you feel like like you're an action hero in a movie. Just don't expect it to be a movie with great story and you won't be disappointed ;)

You have to try it at least once

Mirror's Edge came in a time when we had lots of shooters and copycat games. Something fresh, fun and attractive. The idea of first-person parkour sounds crazy but it feels amazing and you'll squirm everytime you fail to jump between buildings. After all this years is still a pretty looking game, thanks to an amazing art direction. Top this with Solar Fields music and you'll have the best adrenaline rush in a game ever. It only falls short on narrative & combat aspects. Very light story (you against some evil corp) and character development that's just out there and combat is not even encouraged since it breaks the momentum. But this is one of those brilliant sparks that you need to try sometime. It's a relative short game so it will take you around 7 to 8 hours. Now, the sequel is better at narrative, scale and tech level but has it's own quirks for being too ambitious. Being a Origin-only game doesn't help either. It's very cheap now but I would still recomend going with the original first.
