Quasimorph is an old-school graphical roguelike with guns and blades instead of magic and swords. If you like the concept of high risk and reward extraction shooters, wanting a single player game capturing that essence this is the game for you. You'll be in charge of a PMC group that creates clones and sends them on missions across planets in our solar system. You'll travel planet to planet taking missions for corporations that all seem to have their own goals and warring over territory. You keep all your loot if you can survive the mission objectives, if you die you lose all the loot you brought and found. Chips that unlock production items, things like better backpacks (more inventory space) and food types, can be found while you're on a mission. If you find a chip on a mission you can extract immediately without completing the objectives and keep your loot. Your ship is home base and will be producing the stuff you need to survive so chips are valuable enough for early mission extraction. Classes are also found as chips first which you have to extract with to unlock, and I love this concept because it reminds me of the skills system in diablo 1. Quasimorphosis spreads the longer you're on a mission—can be managed with certain items, and will eventually spawn harder and harder demons. Depending on the planet and the corporation the mission is against you'll be facing different enemies with different gear and theme. So far there's a couple different mission types. You can work for any number of the corporations currently in the game and they all give different loot. You can trade as well. Extremely good start for EA. Exactly the type of game I've been waiting for and addicting. Deaths are frustrating but I find myself trying again and again. This game is perfect extraction roguelike formula that works very very well. It's a very good feeling when you complete a mission and extract some of those much needed items.
If you're looking for a good zombie roguelite with crafting and a meta this is the game. *Same version as Steam version.* The game has echoes of Orgeon Trail as you'll drive a car from location to location and you'll need to find gas at each location to progress further on the randomly generated map. Each location is different, ranging from small neighborhoods to large, safehouses, military base, etc. You'll need to loot houses, bodies, abadoned cars for scrap and other times which can be crafted to more useful items, things like gun attachments, bandages, melee weapons. The meta of the game is that you'll find supply caches that you can use now or radio in for later use with another surviror, and books (knowledge) that allows you to unlock perks for future surviors. Perks like faster running, less infection time, etc. Every survivor will die because they're infected but you start with one anti-virus that slows the infection rate and you'll find more while exploring but they're rare. However, as the infection progresses you'll mutate and each mutation gives you a perk. Perks can range from harder melee hits to faster running, to giving off less of a scent so the zombies don't detect you as easily. I fully recommend this game. I bought blind (knowing nothing about it) it during sale but had I known it was this good I'd have paid full price.
Fantastic game. It's like Morrowind with swords and guns. Parts of the map are like medevil enclaves then you'll come across abandoned houses. It's really cool, and the combat is good. It's more old school style realtime rpg combat like Morrowind but not nearly as annoying—not bad at all like some reviews claim. I sat on the fence with this one for a while and bought it on sale. I'll be buying Elex 2 full price.
I, like many others, thought XCOM 2 was ruined by timed missions. Once it came to Gog I snatched it up with all dlcs. Timed missions are only one of various mission types you'll be faced with, and less annoying than they were in XCOM 1. All you really need to know is if you liked the modern XCOM 1 you'll love this. They expanded just about every thing in a perfect way. There's so much here. Buy it. You won't regret it.
