    Atomic Heart é um jogo mediano. É impressionante como ele consegue ser mediano em tudo.

    The game starts off enjoyable and captivating, but unfortunately, it becomes to me repetitive and boring as you progress."

    Solid shooter, among the ton shxt we got recently. But I feel they cut so much from this game. Take it a run, its a game pass title.

    Atomic Heart es un shooter al más puro estilo Bioshock, pero esta vez ambientado en la unión soviética de los años 50, aunque con una gran diferencia, pues un descubrimiento científico ha dado lugar a una gran revolución científica que ha llevado al país a convertirse en una sociedad totalmente robotizada.

    Nos encontramos ante un gran videojuego sobre todo en su atmósfera y en su jugabilidad. Los jefes son variados y con un buen desafío, aunque hay que destacar como punto negativo que algunos de ellos son auténticas esponjas de balas.
    Sus buenos gráficos en sinergia con su hermoso estilo artístico consiguen una atmósfera única que en ciertos momentos es sobrecogedora. La escultura y arquitectura de los años 50 está muy presente y en todo momento logra hacernos creer que estamos en una URSS futurista.
    Una de las mejores cosas de esta obra es su magnífica presentación.
    La historia es su gran punto débil ya que, sin ser mala, ni mucho menos, es una historia que no sorprende, con pocos personajes realmente memorables, giros de guion predecibles y diálogos flojos.
    El juego cuenta con algunos bugs molestos, pero ninguno de ellos preocupante. Su optimización en pc es muy buena, pero cuenta con el sistema antipiratería Denuvo lo que siempre es un lastre.    … Expand

Unfortunately, it feels like they really toned that back and stuck to the tried and true first-person shooter tropes. Oh well, it wasn't bad, just not worth recommending.

    If you do play it though, just play on the easiest difficulty. None of the enemies are challenging to fight, and they just get more bullet spongy at higher difficulties, which just makes killing them take way too long.    … Expand

I would give it 6/10 sickles wont play it again. =/

    Whad attracted me to this game was that it was visually and thematically inspired by Bioshock and (mostly) Bioshock Infinite. That said, I found this game slightly disappointing.

    Looks good- feels bad. The PC controls are floaty and the movement is clunky, no doubt due to being a console port. It's a beautiful game, with excellent setting and immersion, but the mechanical controls, terrible narrative, and obnoxious story telling make it feel like a chore, rather than an enjoyable experience.

    The game is beautiful, combat are ok, the game is full of ideas. But the writing is so bad, that it was even hard to finish the game. It's never funny, the main protagonist is very annoying, and everything seems to be written by horny teenagers.
    Plus, the game never slow down, it goes very fast, even in dialogue delivery, you feel always attacked by everything.

    First of all, I want to say that the graphics and art direction are excellent here. But the gameplay and game mechanics are very crooked and weak. The open world doesn't work at all.

    I am sure that many who give the game postive score have not played the game at all.

    Only my 2nd review ever but I figured it would be worth to add something. Overall it’s just ok, I’m about 6 hours in total. Not really blown away. The beginning sequence is beautiful from an art perspective. The game looks really good. Gameplay wise it just doesn’t hold up, spongy enemies, endless mob waves in open world, melee weapons aren’t that viable the harder the difficulty.

Gameplay wise it just doesn’t hold up, spongy enemies, endless mob waves in open world, melee weapons aren’t that viable the harder the difficulty. And constantly collecting mats from dead bodies and drawers. It’s worth a shot on game pass for “free”, wouldn’t pay more than $15 bucks for it. Definitely has bioshock vibes and the art style is cool but gameplay is repetitive and boring. Story wise I can already tell what’s gonna happen 3 hours in nothing special. Main character isn’t somebody you can really relate to. Way to edgy all the time.

    For their first game mundfish did a good job I’ll say that, it also takes a lot to impress me. It’s better than most of the AAA **** that comes out nowadays from major studies. Overall just wait till it goes on sale if you want to play it. Not that amazing and it’s flaws start to show very early on in the game.    … Expand

So then I was impatient with it, and ignored all the side challenge areas or whatever and just pushed through. The first half of the game was hard to follow the story.

    This game might have the worst FPS combat I encountered in a long time, is very unclean, chaotic, unfun, with waves and waves of endless enemies and there are even robots that can repair other robots and undo all your combat progress in that specific combat sequence. It's just unbalanced, and the enemies themselves are so fing frustrating to fight is like they really tried very hard to make this game as unfun as possible. You get a silly dodge which often gets you stuck in some textures after performing it, weapons doesn't feel that great and also the bosses design is pretty bad. Don't even make me start on the story and character development in this game, and the dumb, cringe and unlikable main character. It's like the story was written in the bathroom break of GoW Ragnarok or somethis is really really awful. Cinematics look funny and not in a good way. I don't understand the choice of making this game open world, it's very bad in that aspect with a lot of recycled content. The only good part about the gameplay was looting, which was satisfying, other than that is pretty shallow. Oh, and it was a pretty buggy experience too. So overall I definitely cannot recommend this game.    … Expand

    I really wanted to like Atomic Heart. I am a sucker when it comes to sci fi dystopian worlds. But the one thing that really held this game back was everything just felt such a drag. Its like everything just took an unnecessary long time. Normally you come across a puzzle and its complete and move on. Atomic Heart is more complete, complete again with extra steps another 2 or 3 times. ButI really wanted to like Atomic Heart. I am a sucker when it comes to sci fi dystopian worlds.

Normally you come across a puzzle and its complete and move on. Atomic Heart is more complete, complete again with extra steps another 2 or 3 times. But after each time we will throw in a ton of enemies just to make it take even longer. If you wanna add new iterations of puzzles that's fine but do this throughout the game not directly after each other. If you wanna add combat encounters then make them meaningful and not just busy work.
    For the story, I kinda lost track tbh cos I kept putting the game down. The combat is fun at 1st but because there is far to many of the same encounters I kept getting sick of it. These devs need to learn about finding the right balance instead of jam packing as much in as they can. Just because something is awesome, what makes it even better is when there is less of it so you can appreciate it more. They got the talent no doubt, but now they need to learn how to execute it correctly.    … Expand

    For me it is a decent FPS shooter but really got bored with repetitive enemy attacks. Puzzles are very easy and save point dynamic is just crap. Platform mechanics are terrible. I almost fall a sleep in the first 45 minutes of watchplay (not game play). However great graphics and successful weapon upgrade/craft system. Great potential to turn it into a franchise.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Really fun combat and love the world this has built. The cutscenes needed some more time put into them. The open world part was pretty much useless and the map was unusable. I felt like I was running the whole time to just get to the next mission because I couldn’t stand the open world part. Story is pretty good but the ending was way too much. It was all over the place and unnecessary and dumb. Overall fun.… Expand

    Что я могу сказать по данной игре.

    Графика: Похожа на Dying Light 2, не плохая но и не увау, просто хорошая графика. 7/10 Геймплей: 1) Замки, самая душная механика игры, да замки разнообразные, но их так много, что иногда хотелось нажать alt+f4 и удалить игру. 2/10 2) Система лутинга, это лучшая система лутинга которую я только видел, после этого я не смогу лутаться в других играх,    Что я могу сказать по данной игре.

    3) Динамика, игра динамичная и это не плохо, драки быстрые, эпичные. 8/10
    4) Сканер, каждая сущность помечается красным цветом, помимо врагов есть и животные, которые также помечаются красным цветом, каждый раз вы будете думать что там враг, а это просто корова. 4/10
    5) Прокачка, прокачка большая не душная, если вы прокачали одну ветку знаний, а позже захотели другую, старую ветку можно откатить, это очень удобно, не надо начинать игру сначала. 8/10

    Just a carbon copy of Bioshock series, in every level but with a pseudo soviet theme. Bad fighting mechanics, sickening head movement, endless dialogs explaining everything everytime and a bad soundtrack. The good side is the graphics and the attention of the graphics details, but the gameplay is unbalanced along with a terrible combat system.

    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.
