    Very boring game, i didn't like it much. It has some potential, but overall meh.

    The game may be good, but Bloober Team's maximally stupid position is not. That's why I give you the lowest score for your decision.

    This is a horror game? and next gen games?
    The Bloober Team has created another boring walking simulator.
    They started destroying my eyes as well as frustrating.

    I don't know what has evolved
    Boredom has no generation

    Observer: System Redux uses familiar sci-fi themes to create a compelling murder mystery in a haunting dystopian future. Though it takes place entirely in a derelict apartment building, the setting never feels restrictive, thanks in part to the clever mind-hacking sequences that let you explore the victims’ memories. It’s genuinely creepy, with the constantly building tension only interrupted by a few frustrating stealth sequences that feel like they came from another game. Even so, Observer: System Redux is a great display of survival horror storytelling.

    Observer: System Redux is a clear improvement of the original game by giving it the graphic engine of the most recent Bloober Team games. The three new investigations deepen the themes of the game and this is good news as the universe of Observer is thought-provoking. The slightly shaky infiltration phases of the original version are still present and the way Bloober Team creates a horrific atmosphere based on jumpscares and aggressive staging is still a bit tiring. Observer has enough trump cards up its sleeve to offer a solid cyberpunk thriller to fans of the genre.

    The new version of Observer goes beyond a visual touch up and offers some gameplay improvements along with a splash of new story content (additional small investigations). And that’s fine, but did we really need a remaster of a game released three years ago? [01/2021, p.35]
