    If you ever wanted to explore the nuclear wasteland that is the terminator earth, this game lets you do it.
    I realy dug this game, we dont get many horror games with a good combat focus anymore. This game has elements of Dead Island , RE7 and Alien isolation, in my opinion and mixes aspect from those game very satisfyingly..
    The production value is low unfortunatly, but they still msnage

    I had trouble finding how this game performed on consoles.. PS4 its 1080p smooth 60 fps.. Xbox 1X its 4K very unstable at 60 , but fine at 30 and PS5 and PC it runs best.
    I really look foward to this studios next game and

    Great game for people that watched the first two movies in the early 90s. I just couldn't stop till the ending. This game is better than most of AAA-crap big publishers release nowadays. It made me feel a kid again.

    Этого просто не может быть после всех неудачных попыток снять как минимум хороший фильм об терминаторе в итоге выходит эта игра в которой уважительно отнеслись к вселенной терминатора жду продолжения или как минимум новых DLS.
    Спасибо огромное вам за эту игру!

    The game is surprisingly good! It has a brilliant atmosphere, also the graphics is quite decent. Night missions look great and scarry (very nice lighting and fire effects - just like in the movies).

I also like the story - better than any Terminator movie after the second part. I hope this game will be successful enough to make the next part. I have waited so many years for a game like this in the Terminator universe and I hope that there will be more of them now. Expand

    Wow the terminator game I always wanted! Excellent atmosphere and storytelling. Amazing music soundtrack and sound effects. The UI is decent. Perfect blend of first person shooter and RPG mechanics. Excellent voice acting. The game runs smooth on my PC.

    Definitely the best single payer experience game I have played this year. The devs stayed true to the lore. You can tell they love what

    I'm giving it a 10 for taking Kyle Reese's future war PTSD flashback, and making an entire game out of it. It lacks polish, and the RPG mechanics are really unnecessary, but damn when a hunter killer does a flyby over you... they nailed the atmosphere

    IGN is trash, this game has 90% on steam and it's a really good game. Game looks like what post apocalyptic should look like, much better than metro, game-play is fast and fun. Would love to see this game as open world though. But for what it is, it's great entertainment for a day a two.

    Back in 2019, I wasn't interested in game because there were too many Terminator movies that got worse and worse. Yesterday I wanted to dive in Terminator world and decided to play the game.

The game is awesome! It's not perfect on comparision with COD or Battlefield shooting system, or Fallout crafting and upgrading mechanics but it has a great atmosphere. Really, I got a lot of emitions while was completing the plot and I was really immersed in characters story to make "Right" decision in general moments. I would definitely recommend this game to anybody who confused with game critics rating. Expand

    Game mechanics are not great but better than some AAA games I played and given this is a budget game and the graphics I'm not complaining they are okayish everything else is great. Bottom-line If you're a Terminator fan this is a MUST just forget about the mainstream reviews!

    Very atmospheric, with intriguing characters and setting. The skill tree and crafting flesh out the mechanics and add scope for a second play through. When you first encounter the T-800's this game will definitely get your heart racing.

    It runs very well too. I'm able to use DSR at 1440p on all Epic settings besides shadows with a consistent 60fps using a stock i7 4790k and 4gb 980.

    tl;dr: an actually good terminator game, wtf.

    there is something special with the terminator franchise for kids born in the late 80ies, who grew up with the movies on vhs. something all the movies since T2 failed to capture...until now. As I sat there as a kid, watching the short future war sequence, I always wanted there to be...more. Sadly, it took more than 20 years to deliver.

    As I sat there as a kid, watching the short future war sequence, I always wanted there to be...more.

    Sadly, it took more than 20 years to deliver. But as I started the game, and heard the still awesome soundtrack, it finally arrived. It's hard to describe how I felt inside, once I had to hide from the first T800, with that pumping machine drone sound in the background and with a completely useless weapon in my hand.

    Later in the game, you reach a resistance hideout and it looked so...right. I instantly started to look for a burning tv set...and I found it...I was finally there....*tears up*

    Still, if you want to be really honest, this is a just-above-mediocre oldschool shooter. The KI isn't good, and the animations of the non-terminator npcs look quite clunky, but I don't care. This is what I always wanted, since Kyle Reese told me about the dogs.

    7/10 for pure gameplay
    11/10 for any oldschool terminator fan.

    O jogo me surpreendeu, isso em cima do que eu esperava... Eu esperava algo horrível como Rambo e no fim se saiu muito melhor. Não é um jogo digno de premiações, mas pra quem é fã da franquia ou conhece Terminator sabe o quanto ele complementa o Universo da franquia.

    O jogo me surpreendeu, isso em cima do que eu esperava... Eu esperava algo horrível como Rambo e no fim se saiu muito melhor. Não é um jogo digno de premiações, mas pra quem é fã da franquia ou conhece Terminator sabe o quanto ele complementa o Universo da franquia.

    Ele se passa 30 anos depois de Terminator 2, mas a história no futuro se passa antes da Skynet mandar o primeiro protótipo ao passado - no primeiro filme. A batalha final é muito nostálgica, eu me senti naquele começo dos filmes onde tem tiro de laser pra tudo que é lado e um monte de exterminadores pisando em crânios.

    O jogo conta com MUITA ação, mas há momentos que podemos agir com furtividade. Ele tem algumas escolhas, mas as grandes tomadas de decisões acontecem no final do jogo.

    O jogo conta como e o motivo da Skynet ter elaborado os ciborgues (infiltradores) e a criação da máquina do tempo. Em forma de referência, também descobrimos quem era o cara "original" que deu seu rosto ao T-1000, com o rosto do próprio Robert Patrick.

    Uma coisa que eu digo, não leve em conta as análises de "sites especializados", a maioria que eu li sequer conhece a franquia e não entendeu o contexto do jogo, que é canônico, dentro do universo dos filmes. Se quer referência de análise, utilize a análise dos jogadores tanto no Metacritic quanto no próprio Steam.

    Para quem quiser acompanhar, a série está rolando no meu canal Fique no Controle, além de fazer o final bom e todas as secundárias, fiz questão de ler todos os documentos que encontrei e explicar um pouco sobre a franquia.

    I'm always wary of a franchise-based game timed to coincide with the release of a feature film, but Terminator: Resistance is actually pretty fun. The gameplay is classic FPS meets Fallout-lite.

    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.

    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]
