I really want to like this game. The visuals and atmosphere is amazing, they really make you feel like you're in a dying world. There are many scenes that look like something out of a painting. The puzzles while challenging are fair. However its the combat that really ruins this game for me, possible spoilers ahead. The guns look great but do not feel good to use, they really make me want a game as a soldier fighting with these living guns. The reloading and switching guns look amazing, but why are they so weak, its a gun they are meat to kill what kinda of a civilization would make something sobad at that. The poking gun is annoying you need to be on top of enemies so if you miss they are going to spit acid on you. The projectile guns feel like you would be better throwing the bullets at the enemies rather than shooting, they require you to empty half you clip into a single guy. Bullets and heath are extremely rare so any group of enemies will leave you low on either health, ammo or both. I would be ok with this if you could avoid enemies but they spawn surrounding you or in a narrow hallway. This game doesnt have a dodge button only a walk slightly faster sprint. The enemies also look uninspiring and weak like one of the smaller ones look like a plucked chicken. I really think this game would be impoved with either stronger guns, less bullet sponge enemies, or just remove combat all together. The animations, feel, sound, and everything else is so good, but the combat really just ruins it for me.
