    울트라 와이드 해상도는 중간에 진행이 안되는 구간이 있을 정도로 신경을 안썼음. 애니메이션이 뚝뚝 끊겨서 멀미 날 것 같음. 30분정도밖에 안했지만 소뽕이 너무 심함. 키보드 마우스 설정이 불편함.

    Обычный коридорный шутер. Советский союз тут постольку поскольку. Слишком много врагов, мало оригинального сеттинга, загадки раздражают и портят всю динамику. Мусор. Мне жаль потраченных денег.

    Dull and boring, red corridor simulator. 1 score for optimization. I also want to note that the politicization of the game is sickening, the authors are hypocrites who promised to be without politics.

    The developers of Atomic Heart took BioShock 1, 2 and BioShock Infinite and transferred it to the USSR setting, bluntly copying all the mechanics of BioShock games. Atomic Heart also uses a lot of Russian songs, that were written in 90's after the USSR collapse.

    The developers of Atomic Heart took BioShock 1, 2 and BioShock Infinite and transferred it to the USSR setting, bluntly copying all the mechanics of BioShock games. Atomic Heart also uses a lot of Russian songs, that were written in 90's after the USSR collapse.
    And a lot of people compare Atomic Heart with Wolfenstein: The New Order, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, but Wolfenstein players play as a Polish Jew in the US army William Joseph Blaskowitz (BJ Blaskowitz), who fights against Nazis, not as a Third Reich soldier, but in Atomic Heart they play as KGB agent - it would be the same if they played as a Third Reich agent.
    And Atomic Heart shows the USSR in a beautiful light, while Wolfenstein: The New Order, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus show the Third Reich as absolute evil.
    And Mundfish also leaks player data to the FSB.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is infused with propaganda from a time when millions of people were tortured and oppressed by racial hatred and tons of sexism. The game itself is a carbon copy of Bioshock. If you look at the game design as a whole, it is boring, poorly thought out, and meaningless. This game was not created for the purpose of being played. I don't know what goals they were pursuing, but I strongly advise against playing it. Expand

    In their official ad (!), this game has dared to compare itself to Hogwarts Legacy.
    Which is absolutely hilarious as Hogwarts Legacy is literally everything this game IS NOT.

    Writing:
    - This game's story is the definition of a placeholder. In fact, its just a bunch of MacGuffins instead to drive you from location to location.
    - Saying that the main "protagonist" is unlikable would be an understatement. Absolutely unrelatable, as he realizes what's happening several hours after the player does. The dumb lines he throws are all over the place (in this regard the game took over Forespoken BY FAR). It is quite noticeable the writers had very little idea what they wanted him to be, besides being 1) a some "KGB officer" (the Chekhov's gun never shot) 2) a "brutal" man (so they come up with a 11-years old boy in an adult body).
    - The "humor" in this game... Well, if you would laugh on somebody slipping on a banana skin, there is a chance you will appreciate some of it.

    Gameplay:
    - The "open world" (I would rather call it "open space") is absolutely empty and pointless. Clearly added only to tick the checkbox for "the modern audience".
    - After several hours in, fights and enemies become so repetitive and boring.

    Other
    - No FOV slider - this will make some players feel sick on regular monitors and is absolutely unplayable on ultra-wide.

    Summary
    You can clearly see that huge money were put into the game, but it's a shiny (and fairly well-polished) shell with nothing nearly pleasant inside. What was in advertisement stayed there. Would have never bough it even for 20 bucks and selling it for 60$.. it must be yet another cringy joke from the writers.

    I would advice everyone not to get hooked on the adds and trailers and just stay away from this piece of software.

    Игра в целом: Каких-то оригинальных идей я не заметил, идею маскота украли из Fallout, почти вся игра слизана из Bioshock. Всё, чем запомнилось прохождение, это роботы близняшки.
    К покупке не рекомендую, по крайней мере за такие деньги.

    Battle: Guns isn't feels real, moving like in Faiiout 3.
    Graphic: Rarely looks god, but in many situations textures from 2016 will be shown. Shader not overlaid on shader. Lock fov.

    I noticed issues such as characters getting stuck in the environment, checkpoints not triggering correctly and I can't pass, crashes that forced me to restart the game. I haven't finished it yet but I would not recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and engaging gaming experience. Amazing ad but not the game. Maybe save your money and look for a better game to play.

    The first hours are spent in laboratory corridors, but eventually the game opens up wide and actually mirrors another game with the numbers 451 in its DNA, which is the closest to it - the modern Prey. It's also the one that best shows what the game does masterfully, and where it stumbles on its ambitions. [Issue#326]

    For a first try from a studio without any previous games, Atomic Heart is certainly an achievement albeit rough around (some) edges. Its aesthetic and mixture of well crafted action, puzzles and exploration is dragged down a bit by an abysmal open-world design (which thankfully doesn’t last long) and a rather predictable story. Nevertheless, the overall experience created the feeling that Mundfish is a studio that we should keep our eyes on in the future.
