    this game is so annoying to play, extremely slow walking gameplay, no run button, bizarre Quick Time Events for mundane stuff like climbing a wall, and the constant crashes on PC
    this game just made me angry, save your time and don't even bother trying

    I can't with this game, Please for the love of all that is gaming, do not waste your time here unless you are ready to walk around for extended periods, getting lost, and dealing with unacceptable performance issues.

    I've been walking around for more than 45 minutes and nothing... To put it lightly, this is the Wish version of Starfield. Sure the graphics Look Great but what is    I can't with this game, Please for the love of all that is gaming, do not waste your time here unless you are ready to walk around for extended periods, getting lost, and dealing with unacceptable performance issues.

    I've been walking around for more than 45 minutes and nothing...

    To put it lightly, this is the Wish version of Starfield.

    Sure the graphics Look Great but what is the point if it can't run at a constant framerate?

    Why put Quick Time Events for no reason or such basic tasks, especially when they are too fast to initiate?

    Who is this game for?

    This should have been a Quick CGI Animation, not a game, to be Honest.

    I'm not even gonna be bothered with rating the different aspects of this game, you will immediately feel a sense that you are not in control of anything in this game. It's just a gimmick walking simulator, where the walking itself is slow and agonizing and the Exploring is hardly rewarding.

    I'm Running a PC with
    - MSI NVIDIA RTX 3060 12G
    - 32 GB DDR4 RAM
    - AMD RYZEN 5 3600 6c 12t

    And this game can't even maintain 60fps @ 1080p With DLSS on Quality, Balanced and Sometimes on Performance mode on, on the High settings.
    WHY? HOW?

    2/10, I'm not going to even attempt to finish this game, if the game in its intro can't even perform well or interest me slightly.
    There is nothing redeemable here, I'm shocked that there isn't even a run button.

    What? Did you guys run out of budget, Do You need some help? Because it would have taken me 1 hour.

    This game makes me fear for Starfield performing badly because this game uses real-time global Illumination. And Strafield, SURPRISE, also uses Realtime GI.
    Will Starfield even run at a Stock 60fps @ 1080p? Probably not.

    That's my review, If you want a walking Simulator just play Death Stranding which in my opinion is better than this game by far or better yet play View Finder, a good Indi-Game that will blow your mind...so yeah, that's all.    … Expand

    This "game" gets a 2/10 because the voice acting is phenomenal.

    The missing 8/10 points is for: - releasing a cinematic game in 2023 without native ultrawide support - no run button/key for moments where the character is clearly wanting to run - no player agency - riding off the hype of unreal engine 5 - charging more than $10 for this lazy unfinished unpolished walking (literally)    This "game" gets a 2/10 because the voice acting is phenomenal.

    Yes, the game looks nice but that has nothing to do with the developers and everything to do with Epic Games and the community of content creators for said game engine.    … Expand

    -even free not worth it watch it on utube with 1.25 speed.
    ==========
    - 2:30 - 2:45 boring hour long.

    -very very repetitive painfully torture very slow walking simulator (why cant run because u can finish it in 1 hour), not game, alot of annoying errors, simple generic story nothing special, bad ending and useless bad QTE.
    -only good graphic and acting.

    I was waiting for a good narrative game for so long, I played to this one with expectations, but not so much. As I already read some bad reviews about it, I was ready to just play an OK game. Well, even so, this game is a deception.

    First of all, it's a narrative game, so the quality of the writing is very important. Alas, the protagonist is very unpleasant to play. Even in an obviously critical situation (a lockdown has been declared, there's blood on the ground...) he'll say stupidities to his colleague, sit down to joke about drinking beer, etc. It's not believable, as he's supposed to be, I guess, a chief engineer.

    The dialogues are literal and lack subtlety. The characters comment everything that happens with not-so-witty remarks. There are some really stupid puzzles, and the fact that we have to walk very slowly makes the exploration so tedious...

    I'm on my way to finish the game, so I might edit this review when it's done, but still. I wish the designers had made more judicious choices...    … Expand

    Fort Solis is a bland sci-fi adventure that sacrifices interesting gameplay in its attempt to provide a cinematic experience.

    An impressive game on the one hand, but lacklustre on the other, There are some things to like about Fort Solis, but the actual interaction element can become a test of patience when walking around such a visually impressive mining facility becomes a slog.

    Fort Solis is a tedious and slow-burning experience without a real payoff for all the mystery it builds up. Devoid of any set pieces or story development worthy of any kind of discussion its only high point is the inclusion of highly talented actors.
