    I can't believe this game is actually broke. Like it does NOT play good. It's weird. Arkane make such beautiful stories and this is terrible. Feels like they had no concept/idea or real 'hook' before starting development on this game. Here is hoping that the next outing is just MUCH better than this.

My PC can normally run most games on high+ settings no problem. But there is just not a good game buried under the performance issues. The gun play is simply awful. The world is zero fun to explore, the firefights are also no fun. The gun fights with armed enemies feel like you're playing against a Chinese aimbot hacker in PUBG. The vampire fights are worse.

    How anyone thought this was acceptable to release is beyond me. Please do not spend $ on this game, you will regret it.

The final boss fight is underwhelming, reducing the player to a button-masher. Human enemies lack intelligence, and the story unfolds through poorly animated paintings. Redfall is a bafflingly bad vampire shooter that fails to deliver on its promises.

I went in with good faith: I played methodically, read all the in-game notes on the starting level, then was quickly dismayed when I saw just how slipshod the whole thing felt. Writings litter the grounds, ammo and resources are easily replenished at the home base, the level design accommodates all players. I was shocked how very little the game asked of me to be creative, to find my own solution, to bring in my own tactics. I was raised in a household where I finished my plate, so I stubbornly pushed through to the end.

    I sincerely hope this doesn't drain any more resources from Arkane Austin and that they're given the green light to pursue another single-player, deliberately measured experience that welcomes and encourages player creativity and ingenuity to navigate its playspaces and engage with its obstacles.

    Redial, the highly anticipated release from XYZ Studios, falls far short of its promise and is a prime example of a poorly executed video game. Despite its flashy marketing campaign and initial excitement, Redial fails to deliver on multiple fronts, leaving players frustrated, bored, and ultimately regretful of their purchase.

    Redial, the highly anticipated release from XYZ Studios, falls far short of its promise and is a prime example of a poorly executed video game. Despite its flashy marketing campaign and initial excitement, Redial fails to deliver on multiple fronts, leaving players frustrated, bored, and ultimately regretful of their purchase.

    One of the most glaring issues with Redial is its lackluster gameplay mechanics. The controls feel clunky and unresponsive, making even simple tasks a frustrating ordeal. The combat system, which should be a highlight of any action game, is marred by poor hit detection and repetitive animations. Instead of engaging battles that keep players on the edge of their seats, fights in Redial quickly become tiresome and predictable, lacking any depth or strategy.

    Furthermore, the game's storyline is convoluted and poorly developed. The narrative is riddled with plot holes, inconsistent character motivations, and a complete lack of emotional investment. The dialogue feels forced and unnatural, failing to establish any meaningful connections between the player and the game's world. It's a missed opportunity to create an immersive experience that players can truly get lost in.

    Visually, Redial is a disappointment as well. The graphics, touted as cutting-edge during the game's promotional campaign, are underwhelming and fail to impress. The environments lack detail and variety, making each level feel monotonous and uninspired. Character models suffer from stiff animations and lackluster design, further detracting from any potential visual appeal.

    To add insult to injury, Redial is riddled with technical issues. Frequent crashes, game-breaking bugs, and long loading times plague the experience, disrupting any semblance of enjoyment that players might have had. It's evident that the developers rushed the release without adequately addressing these critical problems, leading to a frustrating and unfinished game.

    Even the sound design in Redial is subpar. The music lacks depth and fails to create the intended atmosphere, often feeling like an afterthought rather than an integral part of the gaming experience. The voice acting, if present at all, is mediocre at best, with unconvincing performances that further contribute to the game's overall lack of immersion.

    A Disappointing Game Experience

    In conclusion, Redial is a highly disappointing game that fails to deliver on its promises. With its clunky gameplay mechanics, poorly developed storyline, lackluster visuals, technical issues, and subpar sound design, it's hard to find redeeming qualities in this title. Players are advised to steer clear of Redial and invest their time and money in more polished and engaging gaming experiences available on the market.

    I love coop games, since playing with my friends is always a good experience in games like that - even when the game itself it's not actually good. Redfall is not even sustainable as a substructure to the fun. Why? simple enough.

    Poor gameplay. Its AI is horrendous. I remember playing smartphone games with smatter enemies than in this game. The skill tree is the definition of a "modern rpg", when the abilities do not actually matter and are overinflated to give you a sensation of a lot of content. The inventory is crazy bad. You gain a lot of weapons too fast and the overall experience is unbalanced, even on hard difficulty. Also, there's no need to work together since no actual treat requires that, so the abilities are kinda useless at some point. The only ok thing is the weapons design.

    Poor story. Most of it is told by static images - this game costs 70$ - and documents. No actual storytelling, I can assure you. NPC dialog? forget it. And how does the narrative influence the gameplay? oh, grab that and that, and that and bring it right here. That's it.

    Poor optimization. Alright, I'm already used to it since PC ports are usually bad in the generation. As a Ryzen 5 1600 owner, that actually gets worse since my CPU can't take some bad games. Even that, I never saw something run so bad on my PC. Jesus. Constant stuttering and FPS drop. I was playing at 25 fps sometimes, and reducing the graphics quality didn't do anything. The funny part is when you enter an underground map - separate from the open world - and the fps goes to 80 right away.

    I do not recommend this game. If you have gamepass, you can try it later, but not right now.

    Needs difficulty updates, 30fps, less aggressive motion blur out of the box, and a little aim assist on controller.

    I kinda liked it, had fun and laughs with my friends, everyone can hate me all they want for giving this a good review, but I made my choice, sure it’s buggy, sure it’s fps sucks, sure it’s unpolished, but people forget it could make a comeback, Battlefield 2042, Cyberpunk 2077, Fallout 76 had comebacks and look at them now, Forspoken is already having a DLC everyone thinks it’s ForspokenI kinda liked it, had fun and laughs with my friends, everyone can hate me all they want for giving this a good review, but I made my choice, sure it’s buggy, sure it’s fps sucks, sure it’s unpolished, but people forget it could make a comeback, Battlefield 2042, Cyberpunk 2077, Fallout 76 had comebacks and look at them now, Forspoken is already having a DLC everyone thinks it’s Forspoken comeback which is good, if Forspoken can make a comeback so can Redfall I believe in it, but for now we just wait until they patch things up, I still have hope for this game to be good

    I did not encounter bugs. Gameplay is quite normal. Everywhere there are shortcomings, but the game certainly does not repel. The plot has not yet considered the whole yet, but the game mechanics seem good. The massive assessment of zero seems to be a planned attack.

    Such a cool vampirism game and even has a Lady Dimitrescu of their own in Redfall, although they should have improved the graphics, cutscenes instead of slideshow in between game plot chapter, needs better dialogue of this game. Graphics were abit too cartoony animated.

    I think this game is really good and fun but is being punished really bad I don't even know why, people expect hyper realistic graphics when all Arkane games have the same aesthetics , there are some fps drops and fix the soldier AI (not the vampires) and that should be it. My advice, give it a try and don't listen/read reviews from anyone but yourself, trust me the game is pretty enjoyable.

    Redfall is set in a world where Morbius was baned in a country and the whole town went nuts from not being able to watch it so they turned to blood thirsty vampires seaking to drink the blood of the Morbs (morbs are morbius fans who are unable to witness pure cinema )so the goverment sent in a squad of people who watched and studied Morbius for a decade  every day to stop the Vampires fromRedfall is set in a world where Morbius was baned in a country and the whole town went nuts from not being able to watch it so they turned to blood thirsty vampires seaking to drink the blood of the Morbs (morbs are morbius fans who are unable to witness pure cinema )so the goverment sent in a squad of people who watched and studied Morbius for a decade  every day to stop the Vampires from killing the Morbs. The main character mentions a theatre in the gameplay trailer saying "i used to go here all the time" implying that shes the regular Morb fan who always went to theatre when it was morbing time thus getting extraordinary powers from not pirating Morbius and enjoying it in cinemas everytime Now together they must destroy the morb thirsty vampires before they eradicate every Morb on planet earth making Morbius a forgotten gem it is a theory that Phil Spencer himself gave the order to delay the game and cancel the Playstation port cause Sony refused to put Morbius in the game and Spencer decided that he would include the cinema that he himself is highly dedicated

    Spencer sharing my vision of the Morbius movie ive come to realise Redfall is one of if not the best games ever made and its the closest thing we can get to a Morbius game thus i give this game a clear 100/10. Which is rare since theres no Morbius in the game but bethesda clearly tries their best to make Morbius apart of the Redfall franchise this it makes it a masterpice game and a high contender for the GOTY award

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Redfall is an open-world shooter where you can creep through a spooky mansion alone at night, then link up with some friends to take on a giga-vampire in another dimension. It's weird, and it's the right kind of weird.

    Pros
    Vibrant open world tinged with campy horror
    Imaginative abilities unique to each character
    Works equally well as a single-player game as a co-op game
    Sparing use of map markers lets you enjoy the world
    Cons
    Can become trivially easy, even on highest difficulty
    Almost no story or development between main characters

This clearly there magnum opus and i have no idea how they can beat it. Redfall has some of the best Level Design you will ever seen.

    This is by far the best Game Arkane has ever made its one of the most detailed OW games i've seen in my Life. Rockstar will have a hard time to match that with the upcoming GTA VI. They really pulled it off. All bets are off now the Sky is the limit for Xbox Game Studios and the Future never looked Brighter.

    Gave up after 30 hours. Repetitive, not much fun after a while, awkward combat, not satisfying enough to motivate me to want to play more. Not terrible, but not worth what I paid. If it had been £5 I would think it was ok value.

    The AI would get stuck in places, and the bosses were a ton easier than the normal vamp[ires that circled around the city. The NPCS also just didn't have dialogue unless they were important to the quest line. Most of them would just answer back with grunts and there was one that just straight-up ignores the players.

    The textures lacked a ton for a next-gen experience and for $70 slideshow cutscenes were definitely the last straw. Thankfully GamePass saved me $70 dollars, this game needed another year or two or just scrapped altogether because it wasn't the hit I thought it would be.

    Jacob and the gunplay are what save this from going lower on the score. Jacob is just a tool character and I love the Raven (it's either that or a crow) he has.

    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.
