    Supermassive Games keeps giving us the same game every time and it’s simply not getting any better

    This is just way below Until Dawn, Supermassive's worst game trying to mimic their best game.

    Another walking simulator, only thing you can do in game is walking. Annoying, garbage and most unrealistic characters ever written. A bad story which has a lot of disconnected parts and a pointless ending. No fun game mechanics at all. Ugly camera angles.

    No Gameplay
    Bad interactivity Bad story
    Bad and Cringe Characters Monsters transforming scenes are like morbin time Bad Cringe and time-waster dialogs and relationships I know same studios but %90 copy of Until Dawn like same monsters and same teenage horror story and same interactivity understanding same character empty character between chapters It’s just a movie with interactivity    No Gameplay
    Bad interactivity Bad story
    Bad and Cringe Characters
    Monsters transforming scenes are like morbin time
    Bad Cringe and time-waster dialogs and relationships I know same studios but %90 copy of Until Dawn like
    same monsters and same teenage horror story and same interactivity understanding same character empty character between chapters



    It’s just a movie with interactivity but It’s definitely not a game ( If your game understanding is just walking like 2-3 minutes and rest of the time watching cringe and empty dialogs yeah it is perfect game for you)
    Firstly game is not interactive (Even Netflix interactive movies are more interactive then this game ) Because your decisions are really not that important They just change a little thing in next scene it doesn’t open a big path or secret things as a example :
    In a part of game You have to choose one of killing a man’s wife or run from there In first try I selected to killing her and after-scenes were very exating I fought with her husband naturally he was so angry to me for killing him wife After that I wanted to try another path I didn’t kill him wife this time and I ran away And you know what It didn’t chance anything him Wife doesn’t have any place for rest of game and doesn’t effect anything but It doesn’t need to be a big choice It can be a small choice right ? No it’s not a choice at all because my next scene is same like her husband chase me again and I fought with him again he was so angry to me for another reason (a reason which I don’t choose or don’t even see) and I fought with him and the only difference between this scene and another scene is when he fell down he didn't get up own himself his wife helped him up yeah the only difference is this .
    In that case it can be a small bad example but rest of the game is like this too . As a general example game doesn’t care who you kill or who you protect it just effected to end game sentences like “John is dead” or “John is alive” It doesn’t effect anything else I want to talk about my biggest disapoitment in the game in the beginning of game I accidentally broke a ladder and game said to me “Path Chosen” And I thonk like “Ow I did something wrong and I will get punish in a part of game” and that part of game had come Our group had to use that ladder but I could remember the ladder's situtation and I screamed like “No its broken don’t do it”
    And game did NOT ask to me like “Use ladder” or “Try something else” They used the ladder and what happened you think NOTHING NOTHING HAPPENED they just used ladder and continued to story Yeah bro path chosen

    Let’s trow away interactivity and talk about story and characters of game They are so bad too . I didn't think for someone in game because they are not interesting they are just classic stereotype teens And their relations and dialogs are just time-waster and cringe but I think all members of game are so and so brave because while monster coming after them they can make (not funny) jokes and they can stay so calm when they lose part of them (like hand eye or something ) When we came to story of game I think It is so guessable story and I couldn't understand the ghost woman thing Yeah I know her place in story but why she trying to talk somebody or scare someone it could remove from game easily and game didn't lose anything important. I think they should gave space to this ghost story Btw I can’t understand game’s chapter ending songs Because in a terrifing situation they play us energetic teeny songs . I don’t offer this game anybody but If you want to try except playing this game go play Detroid Became Human or Heavy Rain if you played it play again trust me you get more fun    … Expand

    Отвратительная игра, ничего общего с атмосферой until dawn нет. Ужасные диалоги, много сцен, которые просто забыли вставить, неестественная мимика лиц, не интересные герои, которым нет желания сопереживать, отвратительное замыливание переднего плана при перемещении персонажа, которое давит на глаза. Я в неё бесплатно бы не сел играть, не говоря уже об потраченных 75 евро.Отвратительная игра, ничего общего с атмосферой until dawn нет.

    Second worst game I have ever played. Can't top Warcraft 3 Reforged, atleast I can give devs that.

    1)Gameplay. -you spend walking like maximum 1% of the playtime. It's simply not enough -you can hold breath. Absolutely terrible mechanic. You can just hold breath until the last second. Wow how difficult! -the whole gameplay of pressing w, a, s or d is ridiculous. Like might have just    Second worst game I have ever played. Can't top Warcraft 3 Reforged, atleast I can give devs that.

    1)Gameplay.
    -you spend walking like maximum 1% of the playtime. It's simply not enough
    -you can hold breath. Absolutely terrible mechanic. You can just hold breath until the last second. Wow how difficult!
    -the whole gameplay of pressing w, a, s or d is ridiculous. Like might have just not included it
    -choices. Choices DON'T MATTER. You choose to hide instead of run you still end up running. Like no matter what you choose you end up in the same place in the same conditions. Barely to none actually impactful choices. Most of them just change what the character gonna do in the next 5 minutes. That's it

    2)Dialogues
    -cringe as **** I mean I'm not american so maybe I just don't understand the humour and culture but my american friends seem to be on my side. Not funny, not interesting, not real. They just make the characters look even more stupid.
    -make 0(zero) sense. Character says **** this **** and right after says "Hell yeah let's do this". Like where is the logic? Does it even exist? This whole dialogue nonsense happens throughout the whole playthrough.

    3)Graphics
    -texture quality 7.5/10
    -animations 4/10. I mean it's more of a script issue rather than visual issue but I'll leave it like that. But monster animations are just plain awful.
    -facial expressions 4/10. Emma is the perfect example. She is supposed to be the hot girl but she turns out to be lowkey scary upfront because of the awful mouth animation. And overall characters lack emotions shown in their faces, especially when crying or something like that when you are supposed to show a lot of emotions on your face.
    -reflections. Water and mirrors look dog****. Like 0/10

    4)Script
    -the whole story is just ****ing awfully written. Like what in the holy **** What the **** were the writers smoking or drinking or something else. Honestly looks like an AI written script. If Game of Thrones would've been written by these devs we wouldn't have seen the last season because the show would've been cancelled.

    Conclusion:
    The game is such a ****show. While playing i said these phrases the most: "What the **** are these choices?", "What the **** are these animations?", "What the **** are these dialogues?", "What the **** is going on?", "What is this game about?". And that whole thing that all boys are soy and all girls are strong and **** like that. Just cringe. Oh wow so empowering oh yeah feminism **** like that. No **** it's just painful to look at. Not like I'm against feminism movement but the whole gender swap is braindead and cringe. And 70 dollars for that **** Nah that's a ****ing scam. Costs more and delivers way less. Heard Until Dawn is made by the same devs and it's really good but this one is worse than awful. -5/10. Yeah you heard me right, -5 out of 10. Every single character is unlikable, dialogues and interactions are dog****, make no sense and beyond anyone's levels of cringe, choices are cosmetic and again don't make any sense, the whole story is really weak, the gameplay is nonexistent (yeah just pressing w 50 times or performing a "quick time event", when it's not even a quick time for **** sake, isn't gameplay). Anyone who played and enjoyed the game, you are a subhuman or something else cuz this **** is not fun, is not interesting, is not scary, is not worth 70 bucks. Clown fiesta of a game. Devs idk go on a vacation or something, free up your mind, don't use internet for a month at least. Like clear up the **** in your heads that accumulated over the time.

    And to anyone who still haven't played the game. PLEASE DON'T BUY IT. DON'T. If you wanna play just torrent it. It's not worth any money. You must be paid to play this **** And yeah ultimate advice don't even play this "game". Maybe devs will think like hmm game isn't played by many maybe something is wrong. (in reality everything is wrong with this game and doubt devs will ever realise that but all we, rational people, can do is hope they do realise their mistakes and learn from them.    … Expand

    This game is a wonderful Idea and it would tell a fascinating story if the game was at least half as good as it should be for its price. This is all this game has to offer.

This is all this game has to offer. The voice acting makes no sense with the context of the scenes if you do not choose the "correct" path. The script is so badly written that some characters repeat endlessly the same insult and conflict information from the dialogue before and after some choices. The characters are completely unbearable except for one or two. The curator is annoying and keeps nagging during all the encounters (it makes sens in the story, but it is a terrible experience).
    If you liked until dawn, think of this game as a cheap copy with a very inconsistent script. Do not buy this game if you have anything else on your wishlist, it is too expensive for a completely unremarkable experience. If you value a good story that is well written, this game is not for you. This game will offer you a subpar terror atmosphere with extremely annoying characters and a story that is completely tainted by the worst script writing of the genre so far.    … Expand

    Men are constantly insulted and treated like idiots in the game.

    But it is not surprising, misandry, contempt and hatred for men is an evil happening on a global scale, heavily disseminated by the media and treated with absolute normality, to go unnoticed.

    And as usual, nobody sees anything at all. Or they pretend not to see it, because apparently depreciating the masculine gender to inflate the feminine ego has become synonymous with "equality" these days. Misandry, physical and psychological violence against men, always treated naturally by the entertainment industry. I'm sure that if the girls were the targets of the continuous insults, it wouldn't go unnoticed by anyone.

    But against man, anything goes, right?

    After waiting a month Post-Launch for the multiplayer to come live before many people have started playing, it appears to be a case of bait-n-switch tactics and misleading advertising.

With the precedent of the 3 current Dark Pictures games under this studio's belt and promises of being able to 'share the horror with your friends in a similar fashion, it stands to reason that the expectation would be for this one to follow suit and provide the same experience, no?

    Apparently, the co-op mode that we've all been waiting for is some dumb Twitch-play style affair in which you invite people (Who also require the complete full-priced game, no less) to merely *watch* you play solo, at which point they can 'vote' on decisions or perhaps provide commentary.

    The devs had all the time in the world to clarify and make clear what this was and what it wasn't, yet they chose to remain tight-lipped until well beyond the point of Steam's two-week refund window.

Jacob, the straight white guy, is portrayed as an absolute weak, moronic **** to nobody's surprise. The Asian chick is an expert marksman because of course female and minority empowerment. These developers couldn't write a competent story or characters if it bit them in the arse.

    There are two possibilities here. One, the development team is full of alpha widows that portray the jocks that pumped and dumped them in real life in a way that satisifies their bitterness of not being able to keep them around or two, this studio is full of cucked Communists that are doing everything in their power to emasculate and villanise white men like every single other person in the media is doing too. Terrible story, terrible plot, terrible monsters that look like they haven't even loaded into the game properly, creepy facial animations, social commentary, pandering to people that don't play these games, abysmal ending. The only reason I'm even making reference to anything beyond the propaganda piece that this trash is is so that the moderate wimps that think calling out said propaganda is nonsensical and bitter can actually have a position to defend that doesn't involve their offended emotions.

    Another example of why video games in 2022 are a dead medium and need to be boycotted completely. I haven't even mentioned the terrible business practices that came from these amateur developers joining up with 2K so they really are the most scummy, degenerate, talentless game makers that exist in the industry today, and that's saying something when Rockstar and EA exist.

    Not worth £6, let alone £60. These products need all of the shaming and boycotting that they deserve. And go watch Synthetic Man on YouTube if you want actual reviews and critiques of games that aren't afraid to reveal the truth.

    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!
