    This game is the weakest one of their creations(even promotion , no one heard of it 3 mouth ago before release...) , but i will give them a second chance for their next game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ну что ж поехали.
    Что понравилось:
    История: (задумка хороша — реализация кал редкостный)
    Актёры: (вот тут постарались, актёры разные, характеры персонажей не совсем хорошо прописаны, можно было лучше, но пойдёт)
    Что не понравилось:
    Сюжет: (реализация просто отвратная, герои тупые, выбор ни о чём.)
    Геймдизайн отвратительный: (нихрена не видно на локациях, само повествование рваное — нихрена до конца не понятно, что для чего и зачем)
    Графоний: (в целом он более менее для какого-нибудь 2012 года, но никак не для 2022, даже в until down (2015) графоний был лучше, самое отвратное это вода, не вода, а я **ять хз что это, я как будто "Робоцып смотрю" короче печаль беда.)
    Вариативность: (в "until down" была не идеальной, но тут это вообще редкостный изврат, очень слабо, очень часто твой выбор просто ничем не обоснован и крайне слаб — если героя должны укусить, то его укусят и ничего ты не сможешь сделать и как-то повлиять на это.)
    Дальше небольшой спойлер:
    Превращение ( это, простите, самое уе*анское превращение, что я когда-либо видел, а фильмов с этими монстрами я посмотрел более чем. Вместо постепенного и закономерного разрушения скелета и разрыва кожи, тут же простой кровавый пердёж.)
    Монстры: (это переделанные вендиго, только хуже, жалкое подобие "Люпина" из "Гарри Поттера" сами монстры настолько ущербные, что просто трындец: нихера не видят, нихера не слышат, нихера не чуют, как выслеживают добычу — я хз, в общем вендиго на минималках, нету чувства обречённости и прочих фишек "ужасных монстров")
    Геймплей: (также не дотягивает до "until down" меньше фишек использования контроллера, тупые qte и всё. Даже в серии "dark pictures" фишка с пульсом была интереснее чем тут с задержкой дыхания)
    Цена: (за почти 6к на пс5; 3,5к на пк - в игре хренова туча багов (игра крашится с полным перезапуском), огромное количество минусов, огрехов и по*уизма разрабов ко всему), если бы цена была 1,5к — оценка была бы выше, но за среднестатистическую квартплату — это убожество в которое играть — мучение)    … Expand

    Graphics are good. So. Little to no gameplay. Dialogues are plentiful but empty. Choices don't matter. Always the same ending. The finale sucks. The locations are exactly the same as Until Dawn.

    The PC port if this game is horrible. It lags even in the menu settings.
    Visuals or audio sometimes are desynchronized.
    Just dont buy it now. Wait for the fixes.

    非常降智的剧情操作，非常无聊之至游戏。剧情展开的节奏很怪，玩起来非常无聊，甚至玩着睡着了……虽然技术力的展现很好，但是互动电影还是需要剧情吸引人的，要不然为什么叫互动电影呢？剧本这么差感觉都对不起演员卖力演出。拍成电影肯定也是扑街烂片……

    the game started with a promising entrance which made me curious as to what will happen but then, the game couldn't sustain it. For me, arguing and bickering between main characters was one of the important things for Until Dawn. However, this game doesn't involve it so it is just an ordinary werewolf story.
    all in all, watching some random werewolf movie is as amazing as this game is

    What a cringe fest. They just have to throw punchlines all the time. And every frucking game since 2020 just has to have a social-media-influencer type of character, like, comment and subscribe.

    The interactivity overall is very low with absolutely nothing to do outside of following the main story (no object to collect to change the outcome of anything, etc, etc ...), and finally, even in retro "slasher" standards of the genre, the game is never particularly scary or unsettling, only getting you very few times with cheap "jump scares".

    The cherry on top: character deaths in a "normal" playthrough never feel deserved at all; often coming out of the blue at random moments with almost 0 way to tell in advance that it would happen.

    Overall it's a very disappointing title.    … Expand

    With limited interactivity it is basically an interactive movie strung together with pointless 3rd person portions. I was unimpressed after my time with it.

    If this game was supposed to overcome a legendary Until Dawn, then devs totally f'ed up. Lets start with the pros. Graphics are generally really good, somewhere animations look bugged/static but it's not that often to make much difference.

Gameplay and the leading cam are actually pretty nice, subliminally trying to help a player to not stuck in one sequence forever. Story is questionable but not bad I liked it. And that's all with pros. There's so many cons, so I will just mention a few, the most significant ones. Pace of the game (especially the beginning) is horrible and boring as hell. Tarot cards are supposed to remind of Totems from UD, and they're just bad. Kind of pointless when you see how this game plays itself. Choices are real horror of this game, most doesn't matter, whole bunch of them are like picking between two dumb answers inadequate to situation and they're so illogical and bad written, just like dialogues between characters which take away a sense of immersion. Most of the time you just sit and think how can someone be so stupid and basically you want to kill everyone cuz there's no likeable character. I mean yeah it's kind of subjective, depends on ourselves but I saw definitely too much similar reactions to mine. QTE (Quick Time Events) were literally too easy and when they're expected to make the game harder, in this case they made it easier. Holding breath, too easy aswell, you just have to look at the blinking red indicator, when it's gone, you release the button and here we are, all alive.
    Summarizing all the arguments, game is bad, but could've been much worse. Not worth those 60$ though and I'd rather wait for atleast 33% discount.    … Expand

    Nothing in this game is credible. Every character seems to lack in intellectual capacity and all relationships are unreal. A positive comment about the music choice, which I liked.

    Overall joke of a game with some big name actors attached just to attract hype, some of the worst animations/mocap I've ever seen in modern gaming, and a story that could and may well have been written by a 13 year old.

    It was the game with the most empty conversations I've ever seen in my life. If the game takes 8 hours, we can only control the characters in 3 hours, there are tons of unnecessary scenes that can be removed in the story of the game, they just put it to prolong the game. Same story as Until Dawn, really not worth playing.

    The Quarry is a good piece of cinematography and storytelling, lost in its medium of choice. The gameplay elements aren't particularly fun, nor worthwhile replaying. The cutscenes are good the first time around, but are certainly get a bit grating the longer the game goes on. Standout performances from the actors certainly carry The Quarry, and it is worthwhile playing through the story at least once, but the second time around feels too much of a chore. The Quarry is the definition of a weekend rental.

    The Quarry is a retread of the familiar genre tropes and Supermassive's own debut game, Until Dawn, but the quality bar is somehow lower than 7 years ago. Still, it’s entertaining enough for one playthrough if you like ”QTE movies”.

    As I mentioned earlier it’s hard to review games like The Quarry without spoiling the story, but I hope I’ve been able to whet your appetite enough with what could easily be Supermassives best entry to date. With the beautifully crafted scenery, soundtrack and great cast it’s certainly one I’ll be playing again and again once I get my Series X version!
