Doesn't run well at all and it feels really clunky to play sadly. Outside of a remaster which doesn't seem like EA would ever do, this is a non-played game for me.
Great game and a nice port from GOG! The combat is cleaned up from past games with a new lock on mechanic that works really well. The story is pretty solid and I love the theme of you being stuck in an apartment and its significance in terms of both gameplay and story. Overall, a must have for a Silent Hill fan!
Really wanted to like this game and I was up until I ran into a gaming breaking bug that pretty much doomed my whole playthrough and I couldn't progress. It kept freezing up my game at the exact same point, no matter how many times I reloaded. I love RPGs especially Sci-Fi ones and the Shadowrun universe is very cool to explore, which is why I'm disappointed with this game. To start with the good, the story was interesting for the first half as it was this cool detective story, until the plot takes a new direction which I didn't like but that was about the time when I hit the bug wall. The character progression is basically the same as Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines, in that instead of you gaining XP and leveling up, you just get skill points straight away from completing quests. It helps simulate the tabletop style of gameplay which I love. The game is also very linear with you basically going from mission to mission. I didn't mind this and found it refreshing compared to many open world game now a days. Overall I really wanted to like this game but I couldn't even finish it because of bugs. I searched online and many others have run into the same brick wall. The fact that this game is almost 10 years old and has not been fixed is inexcusable so its a skip for me. I got this for free on GOG, but I would be angry if I paid for it, therefore I do not recommend buying it.
