Jan 8, 2018Absolutely terrible game. Tried getting into it numerous times, and wasted about 12 hours on my life on it. Graphics and animations would have been outdated 10 years ago. Add clunky as hell gameplay, appalling mechanics, and very average story, and you have ELEX...
As much a flawed jewel as a plastic ring in a Christmas cracker. -
Jan 2, 2018Recommended.
Behind an horrid gameplay and main voice actor, you can find a rich story with depth and almost every quest with a choice. -

Dec 19, 2017Najlepsza gra PB od czasów pierwszego gothica i risena. Ludzie narzekają na SI, walkę, poziom trudności... ale gra ma 'TO COŚ' co sprawia, że siedzisz kilka godzin i grasz, grasz, grasz i dobrze się bawisz. A o to przecież chodzi!

Nov 30, 2017Atmospheric, Ambient, and mb the best game since Gothic 2.
Elex really good. Not every game can offer you so many choices and blow your mind by this background. -

Nov 16, 2017Одна из лучших РПГ в открытом мире, из последнего, гордо ставлю на ровне со Skyrim и Witcher 3.

Nov 1, 2017Elex is a really really really dull and tedious "Gothic like" game, that is very very inferior to old Gothic games. Ironically its bad game on all fronts, except graphics: contrary to most reviewers graphics are quite good. Its a bad game no doubts about it and it won't be fixed by PB or fans ever, its beyond fixing. Game is worth maybe score of 4, but for PB game it is total ZERO trash.
-
Nov 1, 2017Do not listen crap reviewers! The game is FANTASTIC! Do you like old school rpg like Gothic? This game is for you! And advice to crappy-reviewers who says that graphics are mediocre - go play **** and ****

Oct 30, 2017Jocul merită banii. Este posibil ca grafica să nu fie bună, dar lumea din jur este magnifică. Interfața nu este cea mai bună, ați putea face mai bine. Este foarte asemănătoare cu cea a lui Gothic 2, în special paladinul lui Lothar, care spune că nu ești cetățean, dar în Elex nici măcar nu ești agricultor))).

Oct 30, 2017Standartmäßig gute Piranha Qualität auf ähnlichem Niveau wie Risen 1, aber mit noch besserer Spielwelt.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Oct 30, 2017Piranie przez te wszystkie lata robią za każdym razem gry niemal identyczne i zawierające te same błędy...
Fanom Gothica czy Risena polecam z czystym sumieniem reszcie pewnie nie przypadnie do gustu ta drewniana walka czy ogólnie same animacje...
ps po niecałych trzech godzinach wpadł mi "acziwek" za 80 godzin gry... -
Oct 30, 2017Kampf system ist echt schrott :)) Aber sonst Gute sache mit den drei Fraktionen hat man lange was zum rummtollen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Oct 30, 2017Classic PB game in the vein of Gothic. They've improved a lot of their systems, but I wouldn't expect anything ground breaking or new in the term of open world RPGs. It is a solid, relatively well put together game with a decent story and a strong difficulty level.

Oct 30, 2017Best game ever! Wait till you reach higher level's meaning level 8 or so. Nothing like having a sword,shield than switch to gernades or a bow than toss some spells into the mix. Freaking great!
Mad props to this web site for making the game look even more amazing than it all ready is.

Oct 30, 2017This game looks like a cheap mod to Skyrim stylized on Fallout 4 and Mass Effect. I would not recommend this even to download, not to mention about the purchase.
-
Oct 30, 2017In all aspects of this game its mediocre at best. Judging by my play time I just can't get enough. I feel the heart of PB in this game. I know that compared to many games it sucks but damn that heart is so big and trying! Thank you PB for your hard work! Take the criticism, build on it and make Elex 2 the best game you can!

Oct 30, 2017l comienzo del juego es realmente desafiante.
Muchos monstruos te matarán con un solo golpe, huir no es una vergüenza
Una vez que has subido de nivel (haciendo misiones, matando oponentes débiles, exploración, etc.) sentirás la progresión y lentamente te convertirás en un gran guerrero.

Oct 30, 2017This game is fantastic! I´ve been waiting for a game like this since Gothic 2. Most positive aspects have been mentioned by other users, but I have to emphasize the beauty of the world of elex. Exploring is so much fun in this game!!! And I don´t mean the graphics quality. The graphics look a bit old (thats why 9/10), but that doesn´t change the fact, that it´s a great game!
-
Oct 30, 2017Для тех кто знаком с 1-2 Готикой от пираний, недолжно вставать даже вопроса играть или нет.
Ибо Еlex это игра с той самой атмосферой+интересным миром.
Однозначный респект ребятам за возвожность вернутся в детсво))) -

Oct 29, 2017For a game with virtually no buzz around it before release I was pleasantly surprised by what I got. Yes, its a bit buggy and "normal" difficulty is actually pretty insane. However, you wont be short of things to do or challenges to overcome.

Oct 29, 2017"ELEX to taki Gothic 3. Naprawiony i ulepszony, do którego na koniec ktoś postanowił dodać cząstkę Fallouta przy okazji frakcji Banitów, Mass Effecta wraz z Klerykami, a nawet Wiedźmina 3 w konstrukcji zadań i znajdowanych po świecie notatek. [...] Jak na ironię losu, największym konkurentem trójeczki jest gra od tych samych twórców. I co najlepsze, ELEX wygrywa..."

Oct 29, 2017Terrible game, it's so boring and easy. The quests are cliche, the main character is an emotionless robot and the soundtrack is awful. One of the worst indie games i have ever played.

Oct 29, 2017Nini mchezo dhaifu. Picha mbaya, michoro na mitambo isiyo ya muda. Elex ni maskini na haipendi. Siwezi kupendekeza mtu yeyote wa mchezo huu... 0/10
-
Oct 29, 2017Elex is een zeer grote teleurstelling en ik ben als fan van Gothic denken dat het het slechtste Piranha Bytes spel is. Het is onvoltooid, verouderd en niet speelbaar. Ik kan dit spel niet aanraden.
-
Oct 29, 2017Лучшая РПГ за прошедшие года. Спасибо Пираньям за то, что они не бросают разработку новых игр и показывают, что такое олд скул. 10/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oct 28, 2017If you know end of this game you know that developers just cutted story in half and now they plan to release Elex 2 with the rest of story. What a shame... I will not pay twice for the one game!!! 0/10.
-
Oct 28, 2017This is just the next Piranha Bytes crap. They are just too weak to make good and playable game like Skyrim or Witcher 3. They are still in 2001 when first Gothic was released. Nothing changed to this time - Elex is their next same, bugged, outdated and unplayable game.
-
Oct 28, 2017This game cost 50$ like AAA game while this is like indie game with very low budget. Graphics are like in 2007 and animations from 2000. What a piece of wood...

Oct 28, 2017Amazing game, well not easy, sometimes hard, many stories in stories hidden around, and hours of roaming just for fun.
Some minor bugs, melee combat is a little confusing on beginning, rest is awesome.
10/10 in mine personal rpg pantheon. -
Oct 28, 2017Better than fallout 4 by a long shot. Its hard and the gameplay/world/storyline is original...........................................................

Oct 28, 2017Although this game might be a bit "oldschool" it creates an intense atmosphere with great dialogues and a dynamic story. I recommend this game for fans of classical RPGs.
-
Oct 28, 2017Give me my money back! This is the worst game I played this year. I can call yourself as a fan of Gothic games but Elex is a big dissapointment for me.
-
Oct 28, 2017The weakest Piranha Bytes game. **** story and dialogues, poor combat system and game mechanics, graphics and animations like in 2001, unlogical mix of fantasy, postapo and science fiction, empty world and many other disadventages make this game crap of the year 2017.

Oct 27, 2017I've literally uninstalled this game after 30 minutes of gameplay. The graphics look like something from a decade ago. Admittedly I didn't give this game enough time to potentially compel me with its story or even mechanics for that matter, but a game that charges $50 and looks like it was released 10 years ago is simply too insulting to warrant my time.
Awards & Rankings

Feb 2, 2018Elex is a hard game to genuinely recommend, it does so many important things to only an acceptable level or worse. It's a game that's carried based on the strength of its quest design, or more pessimistically, one that's let down by a general lack of polish and uninteresting combat. It feels like a nice refreshing counterpart to some modern rpgs that treat their quest lists more like chores, but as a complete package, it falls disappointingly short.
-
Jan 2, 2018A flawed jewel. Beneath its layers a sophisticated game is hidden, created with love yet with bugs and poor technical design. The game mechanics are the top, but they are nowadays detrimental. Whoever wants to find a treasure in Elex, must try very hard.
-
Game World Navigator MagazineDec 30, 2017Although dialogue writers were burning the midnight oil, the team responsible for combat was obviously slacking off and did nothing to really improve that mess of a close combat which ELEX inherited from Risen. Monster fights are as choppy, unnatural and buggy as ever, for example, enemies slide right up a steep slope if they happen to dodge in that direction. [Issue#225, p.68]
