Firmament is truly a game that had high expectations amongst Cyan's community fanbase However, I'm setting aside said expectations to review the game as is to give a fair opinion for both players of Cyan's Fanbase and those who are fresh to the comapny Environment and Atmosphere Incredible. The environment was simply beautiful. Many were a time where I would find something new and couldn't help but smile as I looked out into the terrain. Even doing some back-tracking on my end, still had a way of making me stop to appreciate the view one last time. The atmosphere however felt still. Sometimes I would hear noise in the background along with some music but most of the time I was often met with absolute silence, aside from an announcement which quickly became repetative. To add, walking is completely silent, which feels like a huge miss on atmosphere building The Gameplay Discovering worlds, following forgotten paths and figuring out puzzles is what made my gameplay feel refreshing and fun! but there's a flaw which I can't ignore and that would be my exhaustion. I felt as if I were constantly battling to maintain interest in what was happening around me. The narration that promised mystery and deception ended up not following through until the very end of the game What disappointed me most, however, was the actual lack of enviromental interaction. By which I mean, yes we could interact with machines and puzzles, but aside from 3 books and an Adjunct to interact with plugs. Nothing was really present for the lore of Firmament Final Verdict My total opinion rests on this Firmament is honestly a great game. But many expected a product that was more complete than what we recieved. HOWEVER! I truly believe that with time, Cyan will update and correct many features and bugs that will end up giving a better experience for future players of Firmament. My current review is to wait until there are a few patches before making a purchase Praise be to the Firmament!
