An imperfect gem

The story, the sound, the gameplay - everything about Transistor is full of soul and colour and stylish to boot. The voice acting, unsurprisingly, is top notch, and while I can understand why the story alienated some players, I found it rich and subtle, the kind of narrative that doesn't answer anything directly but is more interested in themes and ideas than heavy, plot-driven storytelling. Like so many others, I loved Bastion, but Transistor will always hold a special place in my heart.

I want to give it higher marks but...

The voice acting is top notch. The art deco style and character design is beautiful. The animations for your character are very stylish and detailed. The combat is somewhat repetitive. I mainly ran around trying to avoid attacks in between waiting for the timer to recharge so that I could pause and think my attacks through. My impression of combat is that it’s too frenetic for real-time, and too easy for pause. That combined with the weapon mechanic of not being able to adjust weapon loadout before/after battle felt really limiting. I found myself wondering why the devs chose to limit your ability to switch weapons to stations. Why not let me switch ad-hoc? Having to flip back and forth between weapons, and combos, and try them out, then return to the station to try out a new combo felt needlessly limiting. The narrator talks like he's intimately familiar with you, but I never feel a connection with him. And he begins speaking like he’s read the screen before it even loads, it might be more impactful if he waited to comment until I’ve had a chance to read it. As it was I found myself forgetting what he said, or trying to read while he was talking. Either way, it was an exercise in frustration. Overall, beautifully executed but marred by design choices that felt needlessly limiting. I felt this way about Bastion too, less so about repetitive combat mechanics, but it was very frenetic. I wanted to enjoy the story, but ended up frustrated by the combat.

Worse than Bastion

worse than Bastion, not a worthy successor of Bastion. it is a turn based game with confusing mechanics

Other reviews already said it

Beautiful to look at, and a nice soundtrack - although it doesn't changeup during combat, just the same lounge music throughout, which makes combat less enjoyable somehow - there's no sense of urgency. There wasn't enough substance to the game to make it enjoyable, for me at least. Felt like a linear interactive story, not a whole lot in terms of game play that affected the end result one way or another.

New concepts that don't work

This is suposed to be a tactical rtwp combat rpg with a twist, it tries to reinvent the wheel of the genre and ends up with a more cumbersome pause system, think of it like VATS from fallout 3/4 but with the real time part of combat being chaotic and too fast paced, you can't even pause the game proper if you can't activate "VATS" due to it being in cooldown, so you end kitting foes waiting for "VATS" to reload. Also while the art style of the game is cool sometimes it gets in the way of playability with unnecesarily long "presentation" of "bosses" that look cool but offer zero meaningufl information, if you fail the fight you will have to watch it again and again.
