Strafe makes you a better gamer

Strafe is a game that suffers from a somewhat misguided advertising campaign, at least in today's sense. I totally understand the reasoning behind the 90's campaign they had but there are some people that will take offense as it is an evolution, not a retread, of 90's FPS. To understand Strafe, you have to go in with an open mind. It is not a simple cut and paste of Quake. I would relate it more to a Quake/Robotron/Rogue-like hybrid. You always have to be on the move to survive. Strafe-jumping is a necessary skill. The learning curve is harsh, but once mastered, leads to an experience like none-other. The level-design is top-notch (especially for a rogue-like). The DEVs are dedicated and continually improve the game (I still loved it at release). So whether you enjoy Strafe or not depends on how open you are to becoming a better gamer. If you don't mind a learning curve and a little self-improvement -> Strafe will be your jam. If you aren't into that sort of thing with your games (and there is definitely no shame in that), Strafe may not be your 90's cup of tea. Personally, Strafe is my favorite release of the year.

Однообразный и скучный Quake но стильный

Определенно, реклама и сама игра всем своим видом хочет сказать, что она тот самый шутер старой школы из 90-х, но это не совсем так. Темп игры конечно дикий и саундтрек сразу даёт это понять, лихо уворачиваться от пуль, быстро целиться, прыгать, бежать, бросать во врагов бочки, искать оружие. Всё как по классике Quake. Тонкости в деталях. Дизайны уровней просто мутанты, которые хотят быть похожи на настоящие. Они линейны до ужаса, ни о каких тактических преимуществах и речи здесь нет. Хитросплетения уровней? Не здесь. Красивые или запоминающиеся локации? Только грязь и метал. Часто одни уровни от других сложно отличить. А самая страшное если толпы недругов зажмет в угол. Всё - вы в ловушке, и скорее будете начинать заново. Баги. Их не много но они есть. То пуля сквозь стены пролетит, то враг с потолка свалится. Было бы не критично, если бы не было смертельно. Вот визуальный стиль меня сильно порадовал. Я как будто те любимые старые шутеры, первопроходцы своего жанра. Кровище и расчленуха, как их не хватало. Стиль у игры определенно есть. Жаль что однообразный. И мне очень непонятнр почему нельзя сохранять свой прогресс, а только начинать заново. Почему одно оружие от другого мало чем отличается, почему враги все одинаковые, почему это рогалик. И еще много почему. Если бы это был линейный шутер на прохождение с разнообразными врагами, разнообразными локациями, и оружием. Я бы смело назвал его приемником первого Quake. Ну в итоге я получил ЭТО.

Not bad, but not 90s type gameplay

First off, It's a descent game. Not great, but descent. I think the real issue is the hyping up of 1996 action packed gameplay. It's not like the shooters you remembered playing back then. It's definitely more like the rogue lite shooters that are coming out these days. I'm fine with that, but if you're expecting something along the lines of Doom, Quake, or even Blood it's not this game. The procedural generated levels are nice, however the rooms are fairly small and don't leave much room to run around gunning down enemies. At the beginning of each run, you pick one of 3 weapons that you will mainly use. There are others to grab as you play, but ammo for them is limited. Oh and there's reloading. That combined with the small rooms really slow this game down since most of your encounters will be getting the attention of some enemies, backpedaling while shooting at them, and then ducking around a corner or dodging fire while reloading. Overall it seems that a lot of cherry picking was done for the trailers on the actual gameplay. The combat shown in them is there in the game, but it's pretty slow going through areas. Again, I'd call it a very competent rogue lite shooter along the lines of Immortal Redneck or Ziggurat (but a little more cramped). It's definitely not what they were trying to advertise it as.

I can´t understand the bad reviews.

After a few playthroughs I feel like I should clarify some of the criticism. 1. You only have one main weapon. It´s true, you choose one of three main weapons that you keep through the whole run. BUT you can change the firing mode of that weapon in almost every level. Depending on the random distribution of special stations. At these stations you can turn your weapon into something totally different, e.g. turning the machine gun into a nail gun with exploding nails. And by the way, in over fifteen runs I did not run out of ammo a single time. I did not even fall under 30 ammo clips. So there is plenty of ammo even for the worst FPS players. 2. You lose ammo when reloading. True, but it does not matter. See point above 3. All other weapons have only one ammo clip and get useless afterwards. Yes, but you will find a lot of them. And all are useful for certain tactics. You have to play strategically. After a few runs, I know exactly in which corners to use the shotgun or the pistol. And most of the time I carry more than one of them. 4. You always have to start from the beginning and play the first levels over and over. No, you don´t have to. Find out how to activate the teleporters. 5. The weapons have artificial bullet spread. The shotgun has a wide bullet spread and is used best in close quarters. The machine gun is accurate at mid-range. The rail gun is accurate at long-range but is slow. All of this is adjustable with weapon mods that you have to find in the levels. That´s not different than usual. Where is the problem? 6. It does not play like back then 1996. It is not like Quake or Doom. No it is not. It is a game of its own. The first world is reminiscent of Quake 2. The following worlds are different. But it plays like an old school shooter imo, with one difference. You don´t need to play it as fast paced, circle-strafing, bunny-hopping shooter. I like a sniper like approach and that is totally possible. Usually you see the enemies before they notice you, so you can sniper them with the rail gun from a distance. It´s a lot of fun.
