    In-Depth Review (Spoiler Free)
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Visuals - 6/10
    The concept of animal character is interesting, but the fact that every armor clips through your character drive me nuts. Sceneries can be quite beautiful, but everything looking closely is quite ugly.

    Gameplay - 6/10
    At the start fighting is quite fun as you unlock more exp and upgrades, but in the long run, it becomes quite repetitive and boring.
    Everything else is just ok, nothing to really complain about, but also, nothing to write home about.

    Story - 5/10
    The story is disappointing, it is more a set of fetch quests than something truly meaningful. I absolutely love the message about environment preservation, but just like everything about this game, it tries so hard to sound profound and meaningful but it is actually delivered in the most shallow of ways.    … Expand

    Biomutant is a hard game to score. There are moments of pure joy, and moments of absolute frustration. The gameplay while fun isn't all that deep. The visuals while colorful aren't amazing. And the story while having a good concept is executed poorly.

    For $60.00 I cannot recommend it. There are other, cheaper games that will give you the same feeling of doing tedious side quests for almost pointless loot, bandit camps, rescue people, and bring me x item.

I am having fun but it feels like a mix of forced and boredom since nothing else has really come out that I was looking forward to.

    The combat gets very boring in my opinion. It feels the same even after you have fleshed out your abilities and weapons. Every enemy fights the same to the point where I don't even know why there are enemies with different names. One large tribe member fights exactly like the other tribe member. The smalls are just rinse and repeat as well. The wildlife even all fight the same. It's either a charge move, side swipe, or pick up and throw you. The elemental style enemies use different elements but have the same animations and practically the same damage unless you are heavily invested in one specific type of resistance (which that is perfectly fine for gameplay). The super mode (don't remember the name) is very lackluster but it does do great damage. Don't expect anything like Dante's devil trigger or, Kratos's Spartan Rage here. It doesn't look very cool and the sound effects feel like a wet bag hitting a wall. It just doesn't make you feel like a badass when you use it.

    A prime example for how things worked halfway through for me:

    From 1-20 I slogged through the awful melee and only used guns to activate the special moves to use super wushu. After that and crafting a less damaging gun than my main hand weapon, I proceeded to never touch melee again in favor of just keeping it as a cosmetic on my character. The gun (non auto rifle) with almost 250 damage less was hitting for almost 400 more points of damage with the benefit of a status effect and more hits per second. The Devs really need to look into their game balance more. I also stopped using super wushu after getting the stupid kill 50 enemy achievement. It's literally quite useless vs using your guns. Even higher level enemies were dying before a reload minus the bosses.

    If you want to change weapons on the fly you will be seeing the radial menu A LOT. I see why this is necessary for controllers but on PC they should have done something with the other number keys. Finally, a lot of the psi skills just seem useless and a waste of time using. They look cool but that's about it.

    The game world is beautiful and the art department did an outstanding job. Weapons look really cool, the character design is interesting and the armor looks right for the setting. Sadly, that's about all I can say about that. It is beautiful and devoid of anything truly meaningful to do or life. The side quests are trivial and the puzzles are so lazy that I cannot even think about why they felt the need to include them. The only reason to go off the beaten path is to find money plants (literally pointless because the game throws enough loot at you to where money isn't a problem after selling it or not even needing it), and some shrines for extra points.

    NPCs exist for window dressing. They gave an option to speak with them but nothing interesting is said other than some form of, "Hello." Or, "I remember you. Goodbye." They should have just done what TW3 or even Dragon Age does and just have them walk by and maybe spout random drivel. The main NPCs all have similar dialogue and only exist to point you along the way. You won't learn much from them. If you were expecting to find out why a village is in a certain spot, or the history of the land, just use your imagination because you won't get much else.

    The story isn't anything spectacular. Generic save the world from the bad monsters. That is fine, in my opinion and probably not even worth for anyone to hate on. If everything else just felt like it had weight to it then the game would have probably been amazing. For what it is right now, it has few (no game breaking that i've noticed) to no bugs, runs very well and ticks most of the basic boxes. It doesn't do anything to innovate, which would be absolutely fine if the things it borrowed were done better.    … Expand

    Biomutant is an unbelievably stupid game. If it was made only for kids, then ok. But the story is bland, the world is uninteresting, you're constantly tea-spooned on what to do next and there is only so much I can take of that.
    If you like to waste time playing open-world videogames, this is the right for you. Others - stay away!

    Biomutant is a 9 and a half hour long open world rpg where you start out by creating your own character, balancing them how youd like for your play style, and going out into the world to save the tree of life.
    The best thing I can say about biomutant is that they tried.. does this look like a ps3 game?? Yes. Did it crash on me like 10 times including during and after an entire boss battle? Yes.. is it way too easy to accidentally sell your currently worn items to merchants so you kind of just ignore that aspect of the game? Yes. but they tried really hard to give you a content packed rpg, from weapon parts, to armour parts to find across this world.. tons and tons.. and tons and tons.. and tons and tons.. and tons and tons of dialog… however.. none of it comes together in an enjoyable way.
    Biomutant is a great idea, choose a tribe, interact with the other tribes and either switch sides or try to bring them all together… theres even a balance of lightness and darkness depending on your actions.. but this affects nothing but the ending of the game and the abilitites youre able to unlock for combat..
    Combat here is alright. .you have ranged weapons as well as the possibility to make really great close ranged melee weapons.. you can really go out into this world and craft some really great stuff as you set out to take down the 4 adorable world eaters… which are this games main bosses…
    But the problem with biomutant is everything in between the good parts and theres way too much of it…
    its like eating a sandwhich with a meter thick dry bread.. I would wager that nearly half of my 9 and a half hours was spent sitting through this games excruciating dialog… Biomutant never wants to shut up and just let you play its game.. anytime you get anywhere heres 10 minutes of hearing blabber while your brittish grasshopper translates for you… and its all always the same thing blah blah tree of life blah blah lightness darkness blah blah revenge forgive its all so unnecessary, boring, ad just pads out the game in such a bad way.. there is never any interesting dialog here.. theres no interesting story moments or cutscenes.. it all feels like a giant waste of my time.. I just want to get back into the world and take down the world eaters… along the way youll be doing other tasks to get to the world eaters.. these tasks are all basically the same, go to this building, do some switch flipping puzzles, and catch these creatures then go take down the world eater.. all while youll run into other mamals.. taking them on with your mutant abilities that you get to choose and of course your weapons you’ve been building up.. and while actually putting in the effort to craft the best items is enjoyable.. and collecting the items and materials for the best build possible.. the actual combat here is just not satisfying.. enemies are way too spongy.. so after sitting through mountains of dialog that thankfully are skippable.. you barley get to have any fun out in its world…
    Biomutant was decently enjoyable.. but overall I was pretty let down by this boring slog of a world.
    At least it has a great message.. stop polluting.

Surely the best part of the game with it's crafting system. You can level your character but some power are just too complicate to execute during fast combat. The graphics are really nice with a lot of details added into the world. The music is fair enough with good sound effects.

    Sadly the game still has bugs. One of them stopped the main quest and was infuriating (Mekton not working). I expected glitches around the side quests (which I had), but not on main quest. The game tries to be an AAA game. It's close but you can feel it was release too soon and the budget was lacking for voices overs. I give it 62%. Maybe the game will be more stable after more patches but for now it's hard to go deep into the game without becoming frustrated with bugs and some wacky gameplay.    … Expand

    I love RPGs in the open world. But "Biomutant" didn't catch on at all.
    I didn't like almost everything. The game starts with an awkward character editor. Then the banal and boring plot plot. And annoying characters.
    The combat system is confusing and dull.
    Add to that outdated graphics and an empty world.
    But the main thing is the voice-over, which starts to annoy after 15 minutes.

I also like the customization at the beginning, like how the stats, class, etc we choose affect the appearance of our character, e.g: when we choose high intellect, the head gets bigger, and with high strength, the body gets bigger. It's a very interesting concept, definitely adds to replayability.

    Now for the cons of the game. First I'm going to talk about storytelling. The storytelling is definitely horrible. NPCs feel one dimensional and don't really have any personalities. I hate how the narrator has to translate everything NPCs say because NPCs say literal gibberish. Listening to the narrator with the exact same voice telling you what every NPC says all the time definitely is very boring. It's also a shame the protagonist has no voice of its own, but then again, it's also a shame no NPCs have any voice acting at all.

    Then there are these scenarios where we have to choose between "Dark" (evil) and "Light" (good) decisions. These scenarios are incredibly shallow. You're given the option to help a guy, and if you don't pick that option, you uppercut him for no reason. Pick a small animal, kill it to get "Dark" aura or pet and keep it to get "Light" aura. These things barely affect the story, except NPCs will know whether you're good or evil. That's it.

    Next is combat. Melee combat is weird and lacking weight, like when you hit an enemy, it doesn't feel like you hit it. As an action RPG game, it also desperately needs a target-lock-on function. The game could use more melee moves (called Wung Fu) and Mutations. As of now, the number of each of those abilities can be counted using fingers. There also needs to be balancing for "Dark" build and "Light" build. As of now, there are 3 skills for "Light" build and only 2 for "Dark" build. I'm hoping they will add more in the future, hopefully before I'm bored with the game.

    Next, side quests. Side quests are very NOT rewarding. I finished a side quest, expecting something to happen, maybe a new dialogue, but nope, that was it, just a message that said quest was complete. There are also way too many of them, yet each barely had any story. If you're playing the game, I suggest you skip the unimportant side quests and go for the main quests as soon as you're strong enough, before you get bored.

    As for bugs, the game surprisingly has so few bugs. The only bug I've ever encountered is enemies' healths return to full after I made them fight each other using a certain Mutation ability. Other than that, everything is smooth. That's really good on them.    … Expand

The system of dialogues in my opinion is terrible. The plot is also very primitive, but at the same time overloaded with unnecessary information. The world is quite empty and boring.

The open world is just filled with small, repetitive task to complete that gives the player nothing really meaningful to the gameplay, characters are empty vessels with no personality at all, the story simply makes no sense and so on, so on.

This game is a mashup of random ideas, bad ideas most of the time.
    And this is sad, because this game had a really great potential in his first 10 minutes.    … Expand

    The open-world aspect of Biomutant did more harm than good, with the gargantuan, post-apocalyptic realm this heroic, mutated rodent will explore being mostly an empty one, and with the rest of the experience being repetitive and unpolished. More of a disappointment rather than a bad game, try it out only if willing to spend around many fun, but not that fun hours.

    Biomutant is like layers and layers of great ideas drawn on an imperfect mindmap. A great cornerstone to build upon, but still lacking in remaining coherent. Still - great fun in short amounts.

    Biomutant conquers a prominent place in the ever-expanding universe of open world games. While it doesn't innovate in the mechanics it employs, it implements them intelligently, giving us plenty of reasons to explore a vibrant and gaudy world filled with adorable creatures.
