Притом что все диалоги просто бессмысленны , я пытался слушать, вникать, но в этом нету смысла, там просто несут какую-то чушь. В настройках игры я сразу попытался отключить рассказчика но не помогает. Каждый раз когда он что-то говорит, мне хочется выключить игру. боевая система мне не понравилась. Я бы предпочел кривую недоделанную, чем то что тут . Я сделал Пистолет, пошел прокачал его по максимуму, бой начинается я встаю нажимаю кнопку и все. Нету смысла вообще что-то еще делать . (Уровень сложности-Сложный) . Почти все навыки и пси способности, тоже бесполезны.(Самый дорогой навык это скатывание с горы на спине, вот зачем он если есть полет у автоматона) Играл часов 10, пытался хотя-бы просто пройти игру, удалить и забыть. Но не смог , Нету чувства причастности к происходящему, бессмысленные диалоги. Играть становиться скучно и я засыпаю . Игра не стоит своих денег максимум 15$ и то я советую сначала скачать игру с торрентов посмотреть, если вам понравится купите игру . Немного занижаю оценку я бы поставил 5 баллов за большой мир и систему крафта, но некоторые люди ставят игре 9-10 а это не правильно.

    Amazing game, everything is hand crafted to perfection. Narrated very well, great customization, easy best indie of 2021. I honestly wonder what goes through peoples heads when they give undertale 10s and this game low scores when undertale is made in 1year under little to no effort.

First let me start off with my personal experience with the game. I have currently just over 12 hours in biomutant. I have enjoyed nearly every segment of this game from finding biohazard suits to conquering other tribes to defeating my first world eater. The game has this Little Big Planet-esk charm that you don’t see in many games any more. It has a great story with underlying serious tones and ton of lore that you can get deeply into if that’s your thing. One of my personal favorite things about the game is just getting lost on my path. I will have my next quest marker about 1k meters away but rather than just B-line to the quest marker I would see a man hole cover. Go down in it. Realize I need to upgrade my heat protection. Well time to abandon the main quest so I can get whatever goodies are in this tunnel. Spend the next 20 minutes rushing to get a heat protection suit. Go back in there. Find an awesome new piece of gear to wear and find the rest of the parts to build a new gun from scratch. I am now a wizard machine gun toting sledgehammer smashing mutated version of Stuart little. If you played this game for less than 3 hours and returned it and gave it an unfavorable review please remove that for you didn’t experience the game and shouldn’t be qualified to leave such reviews. This game is good and is worthy of praise.… Expand

    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

I have not played such an original title in years, from the world, to the story, to the combat, it all truly shines when experiencing it firsthand. Don’t let the negative reviews deter you from this amazing game.

The combat gives a lot of options for the player to fight and it feels very fluid, utilizing a mix of Devil May Cry and the Batman Arkham games. The graphics are gorgeous and runs beautifully, I can max it out at 4k 60 on my RTX 3070 with dynamic resolution enabled. It seems to be very well optimized on my PC, only encountered a couple of times I had noticeable frame drops, and they weren't bad at all, still very playable. I hear people rag on about the music but I feel it really adds a sense of wonder to the exploration and isn't overbearing, it's meant to compliment what's on screen instead of be the star of the show. Only complaints I have is the narrator is used a bit too much so I do skip some dialogs once I read the subtitles, and the button combinations for some combo moves can still be triggered regardless if you connect with an enemy, so it looks kind of goofy when I'm doing a flying piledriver move with nothing in my hands. And don't pay too much attention to the critics on this one, they have oddly contradicted each other multiple times in the reviews, some saying the open world is too empty and bit and some saying too small, some saying the company is too easy and some too hard, can it really be all those things at the same time? I feel this will be like Dying Light in that it only got a 71 on Metacritic yet ended up one of the most beloved games of the generation, sometimes the critics do miss the mark people. Give it a try for yourself, wait for a sale if you must or if you play on pc you can sub for a month of EA play pro to play it for $15.

First of allBiomutant is far from perfect but it does not deserve most of its negative reviews. Biomutant is a very interesting game with a lot of ambition it hits pretty close to the mark on most of its mechanics, and only falls noticeably short on a few. The game opens up with an interesting CHARACTER CREATION screen. It offers a lot of customization, but there are some major flaws. First of all it operates on a wheel system. Dragging your cursor closer to a desired attribute on the circle will distance it from anything on the other side of the circle. This means that if your two most desired attributes are on opposite sides of the circle then you are basically just screwed (dragging your cursor to different attributes will also force a change of appearance, while this is pretty annoying your appearance can be altered later in game without affecting stats so this is a pretty minor inconvenience). The other major flaw in character creation would be the different races and classes. Races change your appearance and increase or decrease certain attributes. For example the Dumdon race increases strength but decreases intelligence. this is a familiar but welcome mechanic unfortunately the buff in strength and decrease in intelligence makes almost no difference after the first hour or so of the game. Once you start leveling up you can greatly increase strength, intelligence, etc. to your liking making the minimal attribute changes in race mean absolutely nothing. this means the whole race selection is completely meaningless. I notice the same problem in class selection, basically each class has a different set of class specific unique perks, meaning its only available to that class, but when you start upgrading your character you instantly gain access to general perks, which are available to every class. each class only has about 4-5 unique perks and most of them are completely underpowered compared to the 20-30 general perks, which again are available to literally everyone and can easily be unlocked. Some classes even share the same "unique" perks making them feel well, not unique. basically if a class has a unique perk there's a general perk that does it better. Similar to the race selection this makes the class selection feel meaningless and pretty hollow. while it's very fun to spend 15-20 minutes making your little mouse, racoon, dog, guy, it makes almost no difference while actually playing. fortunately where the characters, races, and classes fail to offer different playstyles the weapons definitely add some variety. The crafting is very fun and addicting, and different weapons can be used to shake up ones playstyle. this variety in weapons paired with a decently fun and tight combat system makes for a pretty good time bashing through enemies. sadly this brings me to another major flaw the guns are ridiculously overpowered, while any melee feels slightly underpowered. basically guns offer a higher dps, at a safer distance. The most effective form of combat is easily just spamming the dodge roll while shooting at an enemy about 10 meters from you. this makes you virtually untouchable and offers an insanely high dps, but its a lot more button-mashy and a lot less fun then any form of melee combat. I often have to reluctantly force myself to push in and combo enemies with my swords, although this drains through health and heals a lot faster, its so much more rewarding and exciting albeit more risky then just dodge rolling with guns. If you can ignore the major gun flaw and try not to abuse it, the combat becomes pretty fun. The last major flaw would be the very 2-dementinal npcs they feel outaded as if they belong in an rpg from decades ago, and very few have actual personalities, or any dialog beyond repeatedly spewing the same basic sentence. Besides these flaws the game is a very satisfying, although repetitive loop of exploring/questing, finding loot, crafting weapons, and killing enemies, while taking occasional breaks to do story missions. the world reminds me of Botw, there are things to do and places to explore at every corner and they're all pretty entertaining. unfortunately before entering this loop you are forced through a bland and pathetic 1-2 hour tutorial that hardly teaches you anything and is extremely hard to get through (not difficult just mind-numbingly boring). I believe most of the bad reviews and complaints stem from people who are stuck in this tedious tutorial stage, and don't even realize it. another complaint I see very often revolves around the narrator being annoying, but there is a setting to turn him off so its not a huge deal, although he does about 2/3 of the voice acting so your losing a lot of content there. to conclude Biomutant is essentially a giant bolder that's hard to get moving but once its rolling you should have a great time, I definitely see myself dumping some hours into Biomutant this summer.(note: I would rate this an 8 but I chose 10 due to review bombers)… Expand

    It's incredibly refreshing to play a game like this that dares to do the ARPG genre a little differently.

    It's incredibly refreshing to play a game like this that dares to do the ARPG genre a little differently.
    Biomutant isn't a souls-like, it doesn't want you to craft anything and it doesn't ask you to sit to the side for half of a lengthy battle while your health recharges.
    Biomutant wants you to craft a character (of which the types are incredibly varied and will have you playing multiple times to experience how divergent they are) then get out there and start having fun and it throws multiple enemies at the player from the get-go, assuming you've played enough action games before not to waste time building you up to a moderate challenge immediately.
    Combat is excellent and responsive and the different areas of special abilities that can be upgraded are all explained to the player gradually over the course of the games opening 45 minutes, which serves as a mini tutorial of sorts.
    The story is a typical videogame post-apocalypse one with a well acted narration running throughout but let's face it, if you're playing a videogame for the story, I think I can save you some money and point you towards the sci-fi section of your local library.
    This game is at times pretty, sometimes funny but the one thing it constantly delivers is fun.
    Simple, if tough to master combat which is refined and expanded through a Mass Effect style class and upgrade system that you could enjoy all summer going through different classes and never playing in the same way twice and perhaps most importantly for gamers like me who are tired of the constant barrage of slow combat souls-likes games, this is an action RPG, where the focus is well and truly on the ACTION, and it is all the more fun for it.

    I don't really understand the negative reviews, so far. Originality and story seem strange complaints in this genre and anyone complaining about combat is simply wrong. The combat is spot on. If it feels slow restart and make an agile character because the one I made moves like lightning and the response in the controls is liquid silk.    … Expand

    Francamente el juego desde su anuncio me pareció un juego interesante, si he de decir que en muchos apartados no es lo que la gente podría creer, gráficamente es bonito y carismático, la narrativa no algo por lo cual brille con una historia algo genérica, un parecido claro narrativo sería a un borderlands que no destacan por su narrativa pero aun así cumple con ser un buen juego,Francamente el juego desde su anuncio me pareció un juego interesante, si he de decir que en muchos apartados no es lo que la gente podría creer, gráficamente es bonito y carismático, la narrativa no algo por lo cual brille con una historia algo genérica, un parecido claro narrativo sería a un borderlands que no destacan por su narrativa pero aun así cumple con ser un buen juego, Fácilmente podrás jugarlo 20 horas sin darte cuenta de cómo pasó el tiempo, pero algo sí es claro este juego no va a ser GOTY pero no es ni por asomo un Cyberpunk 2077 o un no man's sky.… Expand

    The Good:
    - Cool game, love the design.
    - Yes the story is cutesy and simple but not bad. Just a matter of taste. Got to love the narration very similar to the narration of "Hades." - The combat is very fun and gives you different styles to flow with (It can be fast agile combat or souls like slow depending on your play style and weapon of choice) I suggest playing on hard for tougher    The Good:

    - Yes the story is cutesy and simple but not bad. Just a matter of taste. Got to love the narration very similar to the narration of "Hades."
    - The combat is very fun and gives you different styles to flow with (It can be fast agile combat or souls like slow depending on your play style and weapon of choice) I suggest playing on hard for tougher enemies. They can take you down.
    - The feeling of exploration is great.
    - I do love the freedom within the crafting system.

    The bad:
    - The first hour is a little rough due to the lack of polishing around scenes. (But the game gets downright breathtaking as it takes off its training wheels. You can tell where the small dev team ran out of time, BUT they did get the meat of the game right in my honest opinion.)
    - Sound design at times can feel unfinished but nothing game braking and again it's spot on in key moments. When the music hits while you are overlooking the beautiful world etc.
    - Overall the game could have used some more polishing for the UI and the scene transitions. But nothing that can't be patched.

    Conclusion:
    This is a great title.
    Biomutant is fun, weird, quirky and most importantly very refreshing. It doesn't necessarily do anything new, but that is okay it doesn't have to, to be fun. While I understand that it's not for everyone just like the "Jak," "Conker" and "Ratchet and Clank" titles aren't everyone's favorite.
    I believe this game is a great addition to the afore mentioned titles.

    Review Adjustment: 8/10 but had to make it a 10 because of review bombers that blatantly lie about the title and/or have not played passed the 1.5 hour introduction of the game, making invalid claims.    … 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.
