I’ve enjoyed the original game very much but after patch 2.0 and expansion it is a real masterpiece. Just give it a chance and you won’t regret it. If you like great stories, immersive worlds and fun combat it is a game for you. On other hand, if you enjoy in participating in hate dramas you should try it as well so you can at least pretend you are hating it for some solid reason and not for the love of hating and being offended with everything.
Gra opowiada historię pewnego policjanta o imieniu Sebastian. Seba podróżuje po mrocznym świecie zamieszkałym przez różne potwory, jak na przykład hybryda człowieka i drutu kolczastego albo człowieka i sejfu. Zajmuje się też rozbijaniem świętych figurek i zbieraniem oleju do głowy. Gdy znajdzie pęknięte lustro może za jego pomocą przenieść się do magicznego szpitala psychiatrycznego, gdzie siada na krześle elektrycznym i nalewają mu tego oleju do głowy. Dzięki temu olejowi staje się mądrzejszy i np. uczy się liczenia do trzech co pozwala mu objąć umysłem koncept posiadania w kieszeni trzech zapałek zamiast tylko dwóch. Czad.
I’ve bought it earlier but started to play it seriously some time before patch 1.5. And I love it. True, I’ve encountered a number of glitches like floating objects or npc’s sinking in the ground, stuff like that, but nothing fun-braking. I really appreciate all the massive artistic work that was done making this game. Architecture, interior design, car design, fashion, music made exclusively for it, the directory of predefined scenes… I is a art piece in so many aspects. That is impressive. Gameplay is nice, it brings nothing new to the table, at least I haven’t notice anything, but everything is executed properly, I can’t complain about any mechanics. It’s nice to play. As for one thing people complain about, that is lacking of police chases. Well, for me “it’s not a bug, it’s a feature”. Nothing breaks my immersion more than this GTA style one man army versus entire city of cops/swat/army/tanks etc. I just don’t like to play like that. So when I accidently run over someone speeding my car and the police gets on me, I’m glad I can easy run from it and pretend nothing happened ;) You can even assume it’s part of the lore. I thing no one, including police, gives much value to human life. As long as corporate business is unthreatened they don’t care. I however have a different, little issue with this game. I think there is way too little ways to customize your characters appearance. In the world where people are altering every aspect of the way they look you should be given much more freedom. Finally: the story. I haven’t finished the game so I can’t really judge it yet but as far I just love it, its captivating and fun to unravel. Characters are well written, Jackie was great, Jonny Silverhand is so repulsive (as intended, I guess) and I’m absolutely in love with Panam. For me 10/10
