I am not really much of a fps player, but years ago (13?), I started 2033 and I really liked the atmosphere, but did not finish. When I saw this bundle, here! - grabbed it, installed it and started playing. What a relieve! Simple menus, structured, engaging story, good mechanics, good AI and not so goddamn overloaded - have not played Last Light or Exodus, yet :D This might become my second favorite series (ME holds 1st place, but who knows...). The only thing that was at first irritating was the gun-feel, like there is no punch - but miraculously even this faded far into the background because of all the other very positive elements just an hour into the game - and I am still talking 2033 Redux here, basically a game of 2010! So, for 10$ all 3 games with DLC is not simply a steal, it is a must buy/try. I am very grateful and very pleased. Thank You GOG
Just saw it here - on sale - and bought it immediately :D! an hour in and everything works like a charm (1060, i5 6500 - used gxperience optimizing, which does exactly what most people wrote a few years back to optimize settings, automatic render resolution at 1600x900 which you don´t find in the in-game settings - everything else is then medium+high). Really wasn´t sure which to use, kbm or controller - but since it´s a lot of running i tried controller with simple aim assist and sticky (the latter i might switch off) - which seem to work fine - well, it´s from a studio that created max payne! I actually took my time to read the letters and watch the tapes: very compelling weirdness. If you just want a shooter, you are probably better off with doom ;) - but the immersion, the atmosphere and the controls, all of it really works fine for me. 10$ well spent - THX GOG
Relatively small in scale, this one you will find on any best shooter list if the guys know what they are talking about. Graphics have aged very, very well. It´s on sale, so just grab it and a have fun!
Played it years back and had it here on my wishlist and grabbed it on sale. The Kungfu animations are great. Everything is pretty straightforward (what a relieve not beeing tortured by endless open world garbage). Controls are very simple but just add to the fun of kicking, blocking and smashing the poor hostile masses around:) There´s some shooting, too. Wei is badass
I really wish there were more games like this one out there. I understand that gamers get their fun of various things. To me, games are, where most of the creative folks went to earn a living. It is very refreshing not to be bothered with character/weapons customization and instead beeing hit by flawless gameplay, fantastic graphics and audio and simply superb direction and storytelling. Much was said about red dead redemption - but senua´s sacrifice does all that (and because of not getting into millions of hats and suits seems to do a better job in all the other departments). Let´s hope for a shift in production towards 20-30 hours gameplay without the the crap for the self-exploiting social media beeings, with interesting cultural content. The problem is the price...because they have to compete against the big brothers, they cannot release it for 20/30 $. Anyway, it is now on sale here, I grapped it (I am very pleased with this purchase - long-term) and so should you - even if you don´t play it, seriously - these developers should get your money!!!
