    This looked fantastic at its reveal. Fun, Co op is always a plus. But over time, the more that got revealed, the worse it looked. The playing experience just isn't what I expected at all. Rushed experience.

    I went into this really looking forward to it after enjoying Deathloop.

    It’s actually shocking how much I’m disappointed. Total lack of anything fun to do really. Awful AI, all fights just seem to be the exact same, zero cutscenes and a totally forgettable world.

    Redfall attualmente è insufficiente, ma la musica rimane in testa, e l’atmosfera è praticamente l’unico motivo per giocarci, magari in compagnia con un amico, dove riesce anche a risultare divertente (spesso per i motivi sbagliati ndr.).

    We're all aware of the flaws, the vampire AI is dumb but it's a great co-op experience with lots of guns and gorgeously created map. Basically a cross between Dying Light and Left for Dead.

    Boring, soulless and broken. The terrible performance or buggy AI isn't even the worst thing about this game. It's just not fun to play, story is told through a powerpoint slideshow. Gunplay is average at best. And nothing you do in this game feels rewarding. Just more gamepass fodder unfortunately...

    Poor performance
    A lot of bugs and issues
    Weak gunplay
    Multiplayer options are halfbaked

    Redfall is the prime example of being seriously underbaked, its got performance issues even with the latest game ready drivers I was getting graphical stuttering on my 3070 in places and before updating the drivers the game was near unplayable.

    The game is also exceptionally buggy, I found many graphical glitches and issues all over the place - one of the more annoying ones that literally prevents you from getting loot is that you must disable traps and collect loot before heading back to the fire house because when you return and head back out, the world basically regenerates so prime example, in one of the first houses there are two laser trip wires and a loot safe, if you disable one of the trip wires and head back to the safe house to get more rewire tools, the laser trip will regenerate but it'll become broken so you cannot rewire it and thus instantly kill you if you try to cross to the chest again, I'm guessing this issue could be entirely game breaking too deeper into progression with any traps/doors becoming untargetable after picking/rewiring and then heading back to the safe house and the world regenerates.

    Gunplay is weak and unsatisfying, feels very rigid and has no stealth kill system so sneaking up to hollow cultists for a stealth kill is entirely useless, so the stealth system really doesn't have that much point at all, might as well just gun down everything providing you have enough bullets.

    Graphic wise, its okay - nothing special but does feel a bit dated and cartoony, reminds me of Fallout 76 in some ways so I'm thinking, it quite possibly could be using the same engine.

    In closing, Redfall misses the market entirely and needed another 6 months or longer in the oven before I'd say its even remotely ready for market, its got too many issues out of the gate - Multiplayer is useless with no progression except for the host.    … Expand

    Grafisch gesehen waren ihre Games nie die Oberliga, aber der Stil passte zum jeweiligen Game, hässlich waren sie nie. Aber dennoch war da immer das Gameplay, welches alles wieder ausgeglichen hat.

    Doch Redfall versagt auf allen Linien für mich.

    Grafisch ist es grottig, selbst bei maximalen Details. Stellenweise sogar schlechter als "Dishonored 2". Was für mich nicht schlimm wäre (Gameplay > Grafik). Aber das Gameplay ist ebenso schwach.

    - Das Gunplay fühlt sich nicht gut an. Gegner sind meist Bulletsponges und typische "RPG-Like" Abschüsse mit HP-Balken - Nicht so schlimm, wie in Fallout (hier sind Headshots zumindest bei den meisten Twinks insta-Kill), aber dennoch nervig. Den meisten Waffen fehlt die Wucht.

    - Die Open World ist langweilig. Zu 90% der Zeit läuft man durch leere, tote Landschaften, hin und wieder plättet man eine Gegner-Gruppe oder findet die ein oder andere kleine Notiz. Der selbe Schwachsinn wie bei "Generation Zero". Ja, es ist keine typische "Kazillion-Fragezeichen-Türme-Erkletter-Ubisoft-Welt", aber ganz leer sollte diese auch nicht sein.

    - Die Story kann absolut nicht mitreißen.

    - Die Fähigkeiten sind ganz cool, aber pro Charakter zu wenige, um wirklich coole Builds zu ermöglichen; Mir fehlt die Freiheit, wie bei Dishonored.

    - Laut Arkane im Solo spielbar, ist es dennoch spürbar auf Ko-op ausgerichtet. Zu oft begegnet man Gegner-Gruppen, die für einen Spieler alleine zu viel sind; viel zu viele Mechaniken behindern einen Solo-Run einfach nur,

    Stand jetzt fühlt sich das Game für mich wie ein stark heruntergebrochener Loot-Shooter an, wie eine BETA von einem Destiny-Klon., nein, eher sogar wie eine Alpha davon.

    Und besonders enttäuscht mich dabei, dass ich von Arkane besseres gewohnt bin.

    Wie kann es sein, dass das Game grafisch schlechter aussieht, als Deathloop, welches 2 Jahre vorher erschien?

    Wieso übernimmt Arkane nicht alte Stärken aus Prey, Deathloop und Dishonored und macht stattdessen so ein aus der Zeit gefallenes 08/15 Loot-Shooter-Ding draus?

    Bin nur froh, es nicht GEKAUFT zu haben, sondern über den Gamepass zu spielen. Werde es aber vermutlich zeitnah wieder deinstallieren - Spaß macht es mir nicht wirklich.    … Expand

The missions and side content the infiltration and mystique. Coming from someone that has been a Hardcore Arcane fan since playing Dishonored on the Xbox 360 and have been playing everything since.

    It is heartbreaking to see a game that feels like it should have been their first outing where they learned all of their mistakes and would build up to Dishonored and Prey. However unfortunately that is not the case. While playing you even feel that it is a freshman outing as the graphics are worse than Dishonored and it came out in 2012.

    I haven't quite completed it yet but with as easy as the AI is to fool that shouldn't take long as I am using the same stealth approaches I used in the previous games and I can pretty much take out all the humans and then clean up the vampires without much more than an occasional Yellow question mark.    … Expand

    Rating: ★★☆☆☆

    RedFall, the highly anticipated game from a renowned studio, falls far short of expectations, failing to deliver an engaging and immersive experience. From its lackluster gameplay mechanics to its uninspired world design, this game left me feeling bored and unenthused.

    One of the biggest letdowns of RedFall is its gameplay. While the concept of battling vampires in an open-world setting sounded intriguing, the execution falls flat. The combat mechanics are repetitive and lack depth, with a limited variety of weapons and abilities that quickly become tiresome. The enemy AI is disappointingly simplistic, making encounters predictable and lacking any real challenge. It's a shame that a game centered around vampire slaying fails to create thrilling and intense gameplay moments.

    Moreover, the open-world design feels lifeless and uninteresting. The game world lacks meaningful exploration and fails to offer engaging side quests or activities to keep players invested. The environments lack variety and fail to captivate the imagination, resulting in a world that feels bland and forgettable.

    The narrative is another area where RedFall disappoints. The story fails to grip the player's attention or create a sense of urgency. The characters are poorly developed, lacking depth and relatability. The dialogue often falls into clichés and fails to evoke any emotional investment. It feels like a missed opportunity to create an immersive and compelling narrative within the vampire genre.

    Technical issues also plague RedFall. The game suffers from frequent glitches and performance problems, including frame rate drops and long loading times. These issues significantly hinder the overall experience and detract from any enjoyment that could have been found within the game.

    Furthermore, the multiplayer aspect, which was meant to be a highlight of RedFall, is underwhelming. The cooperative gameplay lacks innovation and fails to offer anything truly unique or exciting. It feels like a missed opportunity to create an engaging multiplayer experience that could have added replay value to an otherwise lackluster game .

    In conclusion, RedFall fails to live up to its potential, offering a dull and unremarkable gaming experience. The lackluster gameplay mechanics, uninspired world design, and underdeveloped narrative make for a forgettable game that fails to capture the imagination. Save your time and money and look elsewhere for a more engaging and enjoyable gaming experience .    … Expand

    The main issues for me were that for a lootershooter the loot available quickly loses any incentive and the shooting is never exciting. The gameplay loop got stale very, very quickly. Poor combat, poor AI, no real sense of exploration, a nagging feeling that the open world has gone from trying to create jump scares into just sterile emptiness, weird design decisions on multiplayer (only host progresses, really? It's 2023), and then layer on animation glitches and other engine streaming hiccups and occasional stuttering... My goodwill evaporated rather quickly.

    Strengths are the little story telling moments within the world, but these are so smothered by having to design around a co-op looter shooter, and that there are moments of fun to be found with a friend in combining skills traversing and clearing areas. It's not a lot to hold up even a dozen or so hours of play.

    Not the worst game I've ever played but not one I'll be returning to at any point either.    … Expand

In the meantime... the world space is fun enough to just romp around in once with Game Pass, or another subscription. I wouldn't pay $70 for this game... let alone $100+ for a premium version with a bunch of totally unnecessary cosmetics. I will say this: It's pretty obvious the game was going to have some kind of MTX or battle passes or something... it has that kind of a stink on it... which is really bizarre since... that's the not the game that was released.

    Imagina que Sony te saque el próximo Spiderman con las mismas mecánicas jugables que el juego de PS1.

    Estamos en 2023 y es increíble la pereza de las compañías por sacarnos juegos inacabados, con problemas técnicos, múltiples bugs y con un rendimiento apestoso. Hace 30 años esto no pasaba y ya basta que estas compañías nos estén viendo como peones y beta testers para al cabo de 6 meses tener el juego como debió haber salido.

    Redfall es un Triple A que no aporta nada, no innova, si lo comparamos con un FPS como Crysis del 2007 o Far Cry 2, estos se comen vivo a Redfall en cuanto a mecánicas, diversión, jugabilidad y físicas.

    Qué un título Triple A del 2023 siga haciendo lo mismo que FPS de la década de los 128 bits es una vergüenza inaceptable.

    Las fallas del juego van desde su código fuente y desde su concepto y como se planteó el juego en la pre-producción. Esto no se va a arreglar con parches, porque tendrían que hacer lo mismo que hizo Square Enix con el Final Fantasy XIV, que lo tuvieron que rehacer de nuevo y relanzarlo. Aquí esa posibilidad no va a existir porque Redfall se va a convertir en el primer título deficiente de Arkane.

    No lo compres a menos de que esté a menos de 10 USD si únicamente te mola el concepto de los vampiros.

    De todas formas lo tienes en el Gamepass y lo puedes probar desde allí y vas a concordar con la mayoría de las notas de los usuarios con este título tan decepcionante.    … Expand

    I sucks the coop progress is tied to the host for a multiplayer game. It makes me not even want to play if I have to backtrack hours of progress again to get back to where I was after playing with friend. The gunplay feel sluggish and its hard to interact with items. Even on the harder difficulty the AI was a joke and felt like there were hardly enemies anywhere in first 2 hours.

    C'est donc ça "l'année xbox" ? Franchement très déçu, j'attendais ce jeu impatiemment ayant adoré Deathloop. Mais le jeu n'est clairement pas fini. Des bugs de partout, l'IA qui n'en est pas une, gameplay très classique. Fin bref, un jeu à ne pas jouer en tout cas pas tout de suite, une grosse mise a jour s'impose, avec le 60fps en option serait cool.

    For $70 you get slide shows instead of cinematics, AI that doesn't work, assets that have the wrong proportions (hands!)! and an empty game world. Textures are in 2D in a distance and only become 3D objects at a (very) close distance. The shooting isn't really good either, especially since the enemy AI is braindead and you can literally walk up to enemies and one-shot them with a backstab (no sneaking required). Some enemies can't get around a vehicle and get stuck in an endless walking animation. Various items are highlighted with the prompt "press E" but are not usable in any way (such as small vehicles or even NPCs, this seems like some features were just cut last minute. Then there's the bland cliche Player characters, one of whom is in student debt (really???) and generic sniper. Side Quests are simple fetch quests that are boring as hell. Everything you do and see in this game you've done and seen hundreds of times before.

    Live Services Co-op multiplayer with no quality that no one cares about in a year because the next game is out.

    What the authors lacked to be above average was the courage to stand up with full force for something unexpected. They could have taken inspiration from their colleagues from the French branch of Arkane, who came up with Deathloop. Redfall is an unpleasant reminder that talents and creativity run out with time.

    Redfall is a major disappointment from a well-established studio that brought us the hit Dishonored. While I expected an immersive sim that would build on the phenomenal foundations of their previous games, I got a cookie-cutter looter shooter with an empty world, a non-existent story and very little fun. With the steep price attached to this title, I would not recommend it even with a fat discount.

    I wanted desperately to find a good game underneath all the bugs in Redfall, and every now and then a tiny ray of light would shine through and give me hope. I took my time to give it a fair opportunity where others wrote it off only a few hours in. Unfortunately, they were right, and this will go down as one of the more disappointing games that I’ve played in recent years. All we can hope for now is that Redfall’s disastrous journey serves as a warning to Microsoft and its stable of development studios. Not because the world’s second-largest company can’t take the hits, but because players deserve better.
