I really really wanted to like this game. I love story driven games, but i just couldn't get into this one. The game just stars with the initial voice over telling you something about destiny and then the game starts. The gameplay consits of you just running around collecting shiny things and that's it-i would much prefer if the game just lead me in linear fashion from one cutscene to another rather thant this pseudo-open world running around Assasin's creed style collecting things. And also, there is now way for you to skip a custcene-i accidentaly triggered one of the cutscenes for second time and you CAN NOT skip it. On top o f that, if the game shows you something/gives prompt/want you to focus on something then it does so in very weird and forced way. Instead of smoothly adjusting your camera it just freezes your character(even in midair if you happen to jump before) and after like 1-2seconds it displays a pop-up with the information. Felt really weird. In Summary, after less than 1h of play i am leaving unimpressed, but won't be seeking a refund since 1USD(got game on sale) is worth at least the stunning visuals which are really great
I wasn't hyped as much as others for this game, but i was still looking forward for the release. Played it on day one and just...the driving feels super bad, shooting remids me of Destiny(nothing against the game, i just don't like this style-personal preference). Played for about 2 hours and luckily haven't experienced any crashes/glitches, but i expect them to occur. Also would appreciate the option to change radio music/turn it off. When Jackie takes you for the 1st time to night city the rap music for me was just soooo annoying-personally prefer different styles of music so would really appretiate the option to turn it off like in GTA:SA where you could change stations/turn radio completely off. Can't say that iam gonna no-life this game as i was expecting i would.
Bought this game when it was on sale and thanks to the high rating reviews. Oh boy, did i make a mistake. Let me share my opinion on this game. Gameplay: Repetetive and boring. In my opinion, in game such as this should not be any kind of comabt and if there has to be, then i would prefer something in quick time event style rather than slingshot. Also the material-collecting and crafting are just redundant. The only thing i liked about the gameplay was the rat avoiding parts. Stealth is just ridiculous... Graphics: Graphics of this game are beautiful and the only thing i can complain about is optimatization, but in summary graphics are big plus of this game. Story: If you are fan of Telltale games(as I am) RUN AWAY FROM THIS GAME. The "story" is soooooooo boring i can't even describe how much boring it is. Played the game for about 8 hours and can not bring myself to finish it. Amicia is ok but Hugo...how i hate him-annoying little brat with super annoying voice. Other characters easily forgetable-Meile and her thief brother are just plot devices and not proper characters. Rodric as well. During my 8 hours of playing i did not meet even single character that i would care about. In summary great graphics, everything else meh or just bad
If you did not like The Cat Lady/Downfall then Lorelai won't change anything for you. If you've played and liked these games, there is a possibility you will enjoy it at least a bit. The game looks and feel a bit different from the 2 previous games-personally i would preffer if the games had the graphics of its predecessors. Also would prefer if they would bring back the controls from the rpevious games (maybe there is the option to in controls settings-did not check so maybe iam just stupid). Story itself is quiet enjoyable but still not as good as Cat Lady or Downfall (just my opinion). The happy ending is way too easy to get on your 1st playthrough if you pay attention to your surroundings. In the end i would recommend this game for people who like mature and dark themes in videogames. If you are not in these things then you won't enjoy Lorelai much.
