Good soundtrack it gets quite repetitive at times but it's okay. The game is quite easy but that does not mean you can't die. And now the bad ones well the only bad thing is the outdated graphics Unreal Engine 4 and this is the best they can do? it's disappointing also the facial animations are mediocre and some characters are boring to talk.To sum up overall a great game better than i expected.    … Expand

    I expected way worse from the developers, after the abomination that was Rambo.

The cool soundtrack, interesting story, especially with Annihilation and Infiltrator DLCs, delivers. It is VERY respectful of the source material and universe of the Terminator. The enemies while dumb, feel tanky and quite scary at times. The Infiltrator DLC is such a treat, to play as a Terminator and the Annihilation Line DLC actually puts you in team with Kyle Reese, which tells a good portion of the side stories that happened to pave the way for Terminator 1 and 2. Overall, Teyon, through this game, created the Terminator sequels that we really deserved. It's very ironic when a game developer produces a far better movie than all of Hollywood has in the last 20 years. Great work Teyon! This game is one I'd happily recommend.… Expand

    The game is good....trust me, I'm from the future. Full seriousness, this gameplay and story took me by surprise. The game has a decent amount of content and while its not as polished as triple A titles, it's still a game worthy of Terminator fans.

    Because after the good first 30 minutes or so the game takes a total nosedive.
    Forced dialogue and annoying babbling kids are bad enough, but what the hell did the design-team think, when they decided to play a big portion of the game during DAYLIGHT?!

    The daylight-sections look just plain ugly. Really really ugly. The strength of the game, are nearly all sections that play at night.

    I mean: People wrote in their Reviews how the game is like they've always imagined an original terminator-game would look, after comparing it to the first two movies.
    But didn't the flashbacks show us battles during THE NIGHT?!

    Weapons and hit-detection feels kinda off (it gets a little better though, when you get your hand on some futuristic weapons. - Unfortunately you'll get them very late in the game!).

    The stealth-mechanics feel very clunky, maybe thats the fault of lacking real alternative routes. There are airducts and small reroutes at some scarse points, but so many ways are just artificially blocked or funnel you right through enemy-positions.    … Expand

    I really like Terminator: Resistance because of story telling, soundtrack, graphics and the "end of days feeling". Because of too much grinding and too less thrilling moments I give it 8/10.

    The graphics and character animations are in line with games like HALF-LIFE 2 (old school type), nothing mayor but good enough to do the job.

    This game is an excellent example why we should not read professional reviews. The has very average reviews and yet it is a very good terminator game. Sure, the graphics are dated but the game is still tons of fun. The polish studio knew how to take Terminator license and use it to the fullest. Every terminator move fan should try this game. I do not think that you will be disappointed.

The reason is that the lovemaking with Jennifer was so profound and passionately made with high production value for a low budget game that it actually got me emotional. Also the Music is one if not the best I've seen in a game. The story is top-notch and deserves recognition. The acting is very good and did get me emotional at times. The fps is well made for a budget game and crafting and gathering materials is rewarding. The graphics are not the best in 2D but looks impressive in the legacy 3D vision. I loved playing this game and I didn't feel ripped off at all for the 18 euros I paid on a special sale. I wish I had paid full price to support the devs, perhaps buying a friend a copy will suffice. This is my game of the year in 2021 as I finished this year only. The Teyon Studios is promising and I hope they don't lose touch with their passion in producing games like Terminator: Resistance. A warning thought.. be careful and thoughtful about your choices near the end as that will impact your ending in a big way.… Expand

    I like the stealth, I like the action, I like the hidden loot.

    The skill trees not too deep but still has some depth at least early on.

    Crafting is the same way not too deep but avaliable and direct.


    The story starts a bit slow but I enjoyed it. its another time jump terminator style story. So if you can follow the movies then you understand whats going on.

Я прощаю ей абсолютно все недостатки, сюжет и катсцены не дотягивают до AAA-уровня и много тех проблем, но игра сделана с душой, причём по формуле моей самой любимой игры - Metro: Exodus. Тут тоже есть несколько полу-открытых локаций, где ты можешь искать лут и есть обычные коридорные локации, иногда персонаж возвращается в хаб, всё, как в Метро и это офигенно и вышла игра в один год с Метро, дала мне возможность ещё немного насладиться таким геймплеем, только тут ещё добавлен небольшой рпг элемент, ты можешь иногда выбирать диалоги и тем самым влиять на сюжет, но это прям 2 клика, так что любители "чисто шутеров" можете выдохнуть, вообще в сюжете игры есть небольшая разветвлённость, то есть сами видите, у авторов игры было 3 копейки, и они решили попробовать запихнуть в игру всё, что можно, может где-то коряво и немного дёшево, но зато в каждый элемент игры вложить душу, для полу-открытого мира был написан просто невероятный саундтрек, который придаёт такую классную атмосферу, что скучным лутанием можно заниматься бесконечно, для сюжета в игру добавили кучу пасхалок к фильмам и даже сам сюжет связали с двумя оригинальными фильмами. Что касается кор геймплея игры, то стрелять по Терминаторам действительно интересно, стрельба сделана неплохо, оружия интересные. Одна из лучших игр и саундтреков 2019 года. Крче игра топ, держим кулачки, что будет вторая часть(а это, кстати, зависит от продаж, так что покупайте и рассказывайте знакомым об игре), только надеюсь там в сюжете не надо будет играть за Терминатора, ибо это уже совсем не та атмсофера.… Expand

    2. Completely ignore all "professional press" reviews.
    3. Check Metacritic to see what actual user reviews average score is.
    4. If still unsure wait until a game is on sale.

    More often than not you will see a massive disparity between what users say overall and what pro reviewers score.

    Terminator Resistance is one such game and I ask why are "pro reviews" averaging 6.0 and Users 8.1? Maybe they are annoyed that some big developer didn't throw loads of money at making a true AAA Terminator game. But ultimately I don't know and I don't care but what is important is that Terminator Resistance is actually a gem of a game. It won't win awards for graphics and doesn't push any boundaries or do anything new. But what it does it does well.

    It is a Semi open post-apocalyptic world that captures the atmosphere of the Terminator series well.

    Graphics and animations are fine for a 2019 cross platform game and while they could be better I can't complain because I have seen worse in some so called AAA games.

    Decent RPG aspects that are not convoluted or overly complicated. It is nice to have skills logically presented, like increase health, increase weapon damage and that is perfectly fine and all that is required. I don't need fancy graphics or animations when I'm selecting a skill to increase.

    Decent storyline with some decisions that affect the final outcome and you do end up caring about some of these people.

    Combat is fine as long as you accept it is an action RPG arcade style shooter. No it doesn't have weapon recoil or ballistics and thin bits of wood stop bullets etc.

    Audio is great and again captures the sounds of the movies perfectly.

    Coming against your first Terminators with ineffective weapons is a genuinely cool and tense moment. The developers stuck very well to the lore of the first 2 monies and the story does make sense when taken into the context of these movies. So if you are a Terminator movie fan you will enjoy finding the little Easter eggs like the Tech Noir nightclub etc. You can forgive the dated but more than decent graphics for a 2019 game and just enjoy the experience of playing the best Terminator game that has been released to date.    … Expand

I don't care about graphics, not everyone has the budget for it, I just want a good game. It didn't know if it wanted to be a shooter or a stealth game and did very poor at both so neither was fun. You couldn't just run out there and start shooting because you need to conserve ammo and if multiple enemies detected you it would be difficult to survive. If you tried to be stealthy it was very difficult to sneak around since it's very linear. You move very slowly unless you sprint and the enemies move around fast so sneaking around objects felt frustrating. You could only use thermal vision if you didn't run...and made walking even slower and you couldn't see your objective markers while using it so it was very annoying constantly clicking it on and off. If they focused on making it either a real shooter or a real stealth game it could have been good but trying to make it both and doing it poorly just felt like I was in a straight jacket and couldn't do anything. The mechanics might have worked if it was open world like Fallout because at least then there'd be plenty of space to sneak around.

    Setting the score a tick higher (probably a 7.5 or 8) than I feel about it, to offset at least one review that issued a "0" but then spoke positively about it, and hopefully, also the critics' reviews.
    Oftentimes, critics forget what it's like to allow themselves to enjoy a game whilst condemning its flaws without much leniency... even when acknowledging WHY there should be leniency. TR is    Setting the score a tick higher (probably a 7.5 or 8) than I feel about it, to offset at least one review that issued a "0" but then spoke positively about it, and hopefully, also the critics' reviews.
    Oftentimes, critics forget what it's like to allow themselves to enjoy a game whilst condemning its flaws without much leniency... even when acknowledging WHY there should be leniency. TR is budget-priced, and as such, there's some issues- voice acting is hit or miss, sound FX are missing some serious "oomph!" And load times can be a slog.
    BUT, despite these issues & a lack of big budget visuals, they deliver a game that should have been made years ago, and it occasionally feels like it's from last generation.
    TR just... delivers. Its early gameplay is arguably when it's at its best, as you feel helpless with ammo in short supply- but, once you begin gathering more to your arsenal, it gives you that feeling of going from a survivor of Judgment Day to an actual Resistance fighter. You can hold your own, you can win, but if you're short of staying alert, you WILL die.
    This game very much IS the T-800 endoskeleton. You hope it's the beginning of something better, the beneficiary of good sales (thankfully, it seeks like gamers themselves are enjoying it more than the critics,) and sales are reinvested into making this a first game in a series, with muscle comparavle to Arnold's added to beef it up, adding more options, perhaps an open world ratger than open "contained" maps that branch from the hub, better skills, and even more to a story that has ended up being arguably the best in a franchise that's been treading water after T2 hit theaters.
    There's "lite" crafting, leveling, skills, NPC reaction to decisions, and so many other options that have taken their cue from bigger FPS/RPG franchises, and while all these simply cannot compete against AAA big budget studios, it's appreciated that it's there at all and hopefully a sign of what the devs would like to grow upon should they find enough success to make a sequel.
    And that's part of the issue with small studios attempting to tackle an empire of Hollywood franchises- smaller studios are limited. Appreciating what they've managed to accomplish AS a small studio, rather than critics lambasting them for whats been limited by budget, only threatens to ensure a great effort put into TR won't get expanded upon because critics simply no longer have the ability to think critically or cut some slack where budgets ran dry.

    Absolutely give TR a go! Prior to buying it myself, I took to user reviews to aid in my decision. As one person said, "there's Terminator, T2, and then Terminator Resistance as my official "head canon, THAT'S IT". It's not going to win any prestigious awards, but it's clear the devs have love for the film franchise and made tye best Terminator game they could, and it turned out to he one heck of a fun time, blemishes and all.    … Expand

The best thing is references to Terminator film series. For me game critics can't see pros of the game like story. Very nice mechanics and climate like in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Metro series.

    Terminator: Resistance shows a bunch of potential, even if it doesn't always meet it. I was happily surprised with deeper than expected progression, and great dialogue and relationship building. But playing the game I feel stuck in the past, with visuals from yesteryear meeting good but standard gunplay. The worst part is watching the newest piece, the Annihilation Line DLC, take a step back. The Wolfenstein series does better in this sub-genre, but Terminator: Resistance is still a lot of fun to play, which says something about where it could go if Teyon gets another shot.

    As a shooter, Resistance is rather mediocre. But as a Terminator game, it's great. [Issue#244, p.52]

    Boasts about all of its additional mechanics but it doesn’t quite pull off being a regular shooter while looking like from a decade ago. [01/2020, p.56]
