    One of the bests RPGs I've played recently. Amazing storyline, great characters, soundtrack and atmospheric scenarios as well as a very interesting RPG/leveling system. I'm not a big fan of its fights mechanics, but you get accustomed after a few rounds. I happily invested 45 hours of gameplay to finish it. Would totally pay for a Vampyr sequel :)

    Brilliant game! I Liked it very much, story is very interesting, dialogs are great. There some minuses like fighting but overall it is very nice game to spend 30-40 hours. It is more like a detective quest than fighting RPG. I don't understand all the people who hate this game.

    While I can understand why people would dislike the combat (although I don't, I don't think it's better or worse than any game of this kind) I cannot even comprehend why people would moan about it being bland or flat. Nor can I understand why one would complain about the graphics, it runs great on max with a 970 so I suppose if your gear is completely horse balls that would be a fair accusation. I guess people didn't think it lived up to the hype - or maybe they thought it would be a Life Is Strange 2.0. I truly recommend this game is you're a fan of darker RPG games.    … Expand

    Not sure why many media outlets are giving this game subpar reviews. It's been a lot better than I expected it to be. So far i'm about 4 hours into it and i'm completely engrossed in the story. Gameplay is also very fun.

    All of them have their own backstory, secrets, morals, voice and uniqe apperance.
    All your choices have a bad or positive effect on your surroundings and effects if the game will be easier or harder to complete.
    Your choices of who you kill or dont kill will also have an impact on the different npcs based on the npc's relations to each other and on the enviroment.
    Combat is first very slow when you start out but become faster and requires more skill and dodging as the game progress. Unless you of course kill every one and are an upgraded beast of a vampire.
    This game also does not require a lot for your computer to be able to have this game set on high or ultra, and so far I have not experienced any bugs, lags, crashes, freezes or anything game breaking. In other words the game is running very smoothly.
    The animations are amazing and the different skills you can aquire makes you feel bad ass, I mean you can get an ability that allowes you to make someone explode from within.
    The enviroment and atmosphere is eerie and dark, the music is absolutely wonderful and the vampire sight that allows you to see trails of blood and literally look inside someones body is to me perfect.
    Only thing I think is.... "bad" with this game is that I thought the graphics would be slightly sharper (but they are by no means bad) ,and when you feed in combat all enemies stop to stare at you nom down on their friends neck xD
    But to me that is so insignificant complaints that they do not really matter.
    Bottom line is I love this game and cannot recommend it enough.    … Expand

    I would have put an 8-9 but this game needs to compensate for the bad reviews it got. Its definitely worth buying. I played with a controller and the combat was very satisfying.

    Pros: Combat: Dodging bullets, stunning enemies and then finishing them with skills. It was a fairly decent combat mechanic that never gets boring. But its not the combat that makes this game shine.    I would have put an 8-9 but this game needs to compensate for the bad reviews it got. Its definitely worth buying. I played with a controller and the combat was very satisfying.

    Pros:
    Combat: Dodging bullets, stunning enemies and then finishing them with skills. It was a fairly decent combat mechanic that never gets boring. But its not the combat that makes this game shine. Storytelling and level design are vastly superior to many games.

    Story: The story was a decent 9. Minor flaw was the forced romance that doesn't suit a game with multiple choices and consequences. You play as Dr Reid and renowned surgeon in blood transfusions(see the irony) and upon acquiring his powers he goes on an investigation to understand what happened to him and what that means to the world. The way they present the lore on vampires and backstory for each character is amazing. But the main story can stand on its own. How your character progresses through his predicaments throughout the story and how he copes with it is entirely up to the player. I would say in a way, you kinda create your own story.

    World: Its an amazing visual representation of London back in 1900. It really feels like the city is decaying due to the disease. Its very dark. And the game makes you feel safe in populated zones. But when you go outside the safe areas, it feels like all hell has broken loose. Dead people around the corner, abandoned and creepy houses. You never know when a Skal is going to creep out on you. It was really well designed. The world seems alive. And NPCs arent just there to move the story forward but to make you live/roleplay the game a little bit. You can feed of any NPC at a given time and the game motivates you to learn more about the character before doing so. Once you get to know their backstory you get to make the moral decision of feeding or not on them. And you have to live with the consequences of your actions and how your action may affect the relations between NPCs or the world.

    Replayability: You get 4 different endings depending on your playstyle. Makes it worth at least playing twice to see how playing good vampires vs evil vampires plays out and differs from one another.

    Cons:
    Romance: The romance was the biggest issue with the story. It felt hurried and forced on you. There are no signs that the characters like each other and then suddenly its just there. It was weirdly done. I wish they add some more voice dialogue between them or at least make it optional.    … Expand

    Vampyr already starts with an intense and heavy prologue to already let the player involved with the story, even though this may leave him a little lost about how the game will be since the first hour of play is fairly linear. You take on the role of Dr. Jonathan Reid, a renowned physician who served in the war and has now been transformed and seeks answers and revenge from those who did this to you. The story is rather focused on the city of London, devastated by an epidemic.
    The Vampyr universe is greatly expanded in terms of mythologies and cultures, creating space for various types of organizations and groups in the game, such as secret vampire societies, shady sororities, hunter groups, and high-class vampire societies that govern the region, as well as other things that you discover throughout the game. The game is full of characters, each with its own characteristics and missions. Although Vampyr's promotional images that show cities full of people moving and interacting are a deceptive advertisement, you really feel inside a living and functional place.
    In the game you will need to know how to divide your bloodthirsty vampire side with your renowned doctor side, taking advantage to feed on these characters or helping them and improving the city. Your choices will affect the direction of the story of the game, as well as the direction of each city district and the destination of the characters that are there. As the game progresses (the main story takes 15 to 20 hours to be completed) the story is getting as intense as the prologue but leaving more room for choices rather than demotivating linearity.
    A big problem of the game is to force you to have a certain personality and affection for a certain character, something that I as a player did not understand where it came from and I could not relate because of the choices I made in the game. The DONTNOD Entertainment team had done something similar and forced on Life is Strange and it seems they made the same mistake.
    Gameplay
    As Vampyr it is an RPG of choices, open world and full of combat, I will divide this session into two parts: Choices and Combat.
    In terms of choices, the game has more effect on your actions than on dialog options. While it's amazing that you can just go on an NPC that would normally give you several missions, interact with the world around you and simply choose to kill him to quench your blood thirst (and gain a lot, but a lot XP with it), the dialogue options are almost always limiting and in the whole game only in 3 or 4 moments you will make big decisions because of these options. In some moments where you think you need to make a decision of extreme importance in the game, he chooses the destiny for you as well.
    Whenever you sleep, that is when you can evolve, the game shows the results of your actions in each district, showing if the district has become healthier or gone into chaos. Depending on the level of the district, certain NPCs will act differently and may improve the status of some and in worse cases, leading to the death of others.
    Already in combat, the game is sensational in every way. The combat is very similar to Witcher 2 and 3 (this is not going to be the last time I'll use Witcher for reference in this review), except that instead of being a hunter with equipment prepared to defeat a certain monster, you are the monster needing to watch out for hunters who know all their weaknesses. The game does not have a lot of variety of enemies (inferior vampires, hunters, monsters and vampires of high level), but knows to vary in the abilities that each one of them has as you get stronger in the game, which is great since, in a universe only of vampires, to escape of the pattern with enemies only to satisfy the will of the combat player, would be a negative point in the whole lore of the game.
    Hunters will only start with swords, torches and silver pistols, but as you progress through the game, the same hunters will start to carry crosses, garlic, higher precision rifles and even flamethrowers! The same goes for lower vampires, who will be stronger and have some new abilities. High level vampires find you only in some areas of the game and will start to use more skills similar to yours.
    Another thing the game has in common with Witcher 3 (not that this is Witcher 3's original or inspired by it), is the Witcher's sense. In the case of Vampyr, vampire sense. And it works the same way and is used by the game in the same way, you change your you change your vision to follow traces of blood or see enemies hidden by the map. Unlike the Witching sense, the vampire sense is not so charged to be used in so many missions and can be used more strategically by the player to avoid fighting or locating things hidden by the map.
    Concluding
    Vampyr is a very, very good game.    … Expand

    Vampyr is a hidden gem.
    I was reluctant to play this due to the low review scores but in my opinion it is probably the best RPG I have played in the last few years.
    The combat is a bit wonky but honestly that doesnt matter much because the story and characters are truly compelling.

    - Moral choices
    - Great story
    - Great sound (music, voices of the actors - voice acting, ambient)
    - The game evokes different emotions, it's great!
    - I also like the graphics and despite the fact that the characters' faces look like they were from the game a few years ago, they MATCH this world, they are truly "movie-like"
    - The combat system without auto-tracking is great ((I RECOMMEND SWITCHING OFF IN OPTIONS BECAUSE IT IS ON BY default!)), I like it, it's original, although I lack diversity I think in character development and even more powers - most people do similar builds.
    - Inability to load previous savegame to fix a bad conversation (you have to think!)
    - The main character is very balanced, calm, empathic, inquisitive, easy to identify with him, although he can sometimes give the impression of predictable
    - Crafting

    I buy few games in my life, but I bought this one! I am asking the developers not to screw up this potential, to release the second part of Vampyr 2, even better, and then Vampyr 3 to make it a SERIES! It is beautiful! Maybe something like The Witcher. Vampyr in an open world for over 100 hours of game ...

    Bads:
    - small influence of conversations
    - small impact of characters death on world changes
    - shooting in this game is irrevelant, it gives little, plus shotgun ammo (for me) did not store
    - two ways to go as a good vampire and a bad one
    - it is strange that we lose e.g. ammo and energy / blood when we are killed by the boss and autosave is loaded
    - no better highlighting of things to collect, which extends the time of entertainment for finding what to loot
    - medium readable map
    - skipping whole sentences in a conversation with a click of the mouse, instead of just thar are visible on screen

    For me Vampyr is GAME OF THE YEAR, and maybe many recent years ...

    For many it is too difficult, whether it is about the fight, or the complexity of conversations and the depth of the world, well, not everyone is intelligent and sensitive...

    Oh, I was a fan of other games of this studio like Mars War Logs or Technomancer - generally great games for the low budget that the developers had.

Атмосфера Лондона 1918 года, по словам разработчиков всё воссоздано по "секретным документам" и фильмам тех годов, выглядит сносно, приятно лицезреть как Порт, так и последнюю локацию, всё очень гармонично и к месту. Сюжет, к сюжету можно отнести и второстепенные квесты. Очень часто ловил себя на мысли, что уже 40 разговариваю вместо того, что бы делать что либо. Сначала о основном сюжете, он не плох, есть твист в конце, и персонажи которые находятся на первом плане неплохо раскрываются к концу сей истории. Задачи которые выдают горожане тоже не сдают планку, и зачастую взяв обычное рядовое задание в стиле "подай принеси" может перерости в нечто большее.
    Минусы: Весьма скверная боёвка, игра хочет походить на Души, но получается очень посредственно. Анимации - нет резких рывков персонажей и на том спасибо, но часто случается, что плащ может застрять в ноге Доктора Рида, и прочее, но это мелочи. Немного затянули, и под конец игры вместо того, что бы поубавить вражин, их только стало больше.
    Итог: Почему такая высокая оценка, должен признаться это единственная игра которую я прошел до конца за последний год. Цепляет она в первую очередь, диалогами, лором, сюжетом, персонажами, и т.п. Это игра не про гринд, и о лутбоксах, не о прокачке персонажа до Мистера Вселенной, она о конкретных людях (вампирах), и о конктретном случае.    … Expand

    This game is awesome. Wait! Wait! But it's for narrow target. It's probably not for you and before buying watch some gameplay on yt.
    This game makes sense, like respawn patrols after the night or more chaos on the streets after the killing. It really does. Dialogues are... different, but it's all part of the setting. And there is no pace at all. You can spend whole 2 hrs just talking and    This game is awesome. Wait! Wait! But it's for narrow target.

And there is no pace at all. You can spend whole 2 hrs just talking and next one just fighting. It won't be easy, simple couch experience, but it's worth your time.
    The kill people to get experience is great system but again, not for everyone. It's really specific game for specific player. Don't buy this game just to tell people that it's medicore because of gameplay. Because it's not! It's different kind of game. You want action rpg? Go play something else. Vampyr is more RPG than action and the whole idea is to give player some dilemmas. You can feel chained to the main story or tired of developers' decisions about gameplay but the experience is unique. Stop looking for vivid descriptons. Watch someones gameplay, 30 minutes should be enough, and decide if it's your cup of tea or not.
    For me? It's my cup of tea -> 9/10
    However I get it, it's not for everyone. And I'm not special snowflake, and you're not too. Just try it before buying, and don't complain I haven't warned you.    … Expand

    I quite enjoyed this game. It has some features that make it a very appealing game, specially the fact that you can behave whatever the way you want and then face the consequences. Leveling up is also affected by these choices. Do you want to be more powerful? OK,...you only need to go and murder some of people. That's great,

    Vampyr has the best of both worlds. Fun fighting with vampire skills as well as a very rich and deep story which is very rare in today's action games. For this game to unleash it's full potential you have to be willing to listen to A LOT of dialogues as well as read some files. The whole story, the characters and the atmosphere are very well done. Every character has his/her own story and different opinions. It never gets boring. The only question is if you can buy into the dark vibe of this game. Fighting is fun and the boss fights are challenging at times but never unfair. If you are coming from a Dark Souls background like me they are rather easy. You can pick and choose between different vampyire skills and upgrade them once you got enough points or should I say enough blood ? Of course there are also melee and range weapons to pick from. Decisions really matter in this game and you will see the consequences of your decisions later on in the game. This is a nice concept and unfortunately it's very rare in today's video games. It took me 35 hours to finish so this isn't a short game by any means. So if you are looking for a story-driven action game in a very dark and even depressing setting this is the right game for you. I've enjoyed every minute of it.    … Expand

    -The atmosphere. Depressing and intense at the same time.
    -The OST.
    -The love story (Although it happens way too suddenly and it could have been told in a more progressive way).

    Though the combat is janky especially how lock on doesn't work properly.
    It doesn't stay with the enemy you want to kill and moves around. It's best not using lock on and without it it's better and combat is ok once you get used to it. Even with a no embrace play through on normal difficulty I am able to kill enemies 7 levels above me. Combat isn't too hard once you know what you are doing and I did not find any of the bosses overly difficult.

    I also dislike the auto save as I am someone that likes to have the best outcomes and prefer to be able to reload. As I made a decision which was unclear of the consequence being so severe. I thought the charm choice was the nicest option but instead was bad resulting in a coma like state resulted in a outcome I did not expect. Unclear choices is extremely poor game design especially when you get stuck with it because of the terrible auto save system.
    Since outcomes are so unclear and you get stuck with it, I never go in blindly again and instead look up all major choice outcomes before choosing.

    The game only crashed once for me.

    I did not have any problems with loading times.

    The game can also be buggy. Such as when chatting to someone the entire screen goes black and you can only see the dialogue nothing else, until you say goodbye.

    I loved the game and I feel this game is a masterpiece as the excellent story over rides it's short comings. Never for a moment did I feel bored playing, the story felt exciting and gripping. I hope for a Vampyr 2 and feel this game deserves a higher rating than what it received.    … Expand

    La trama es interesante, te mantiene enganchado para saber que ha pasado, hablar con los personajes llenos de historias de los distritos y así descubrir sus misterios. Da giros argumentales los cuales son bien ejecutados, empiezas buscando respuestas de que te ha pasado y las respuestas son tan inquietantes que nada es como parecía.
    El combate es sólido pero nada del otro mundo, cumple su función y ya está.
    Vampyr implementa un sistema de progresión bastante original, como se hace fuerte un vampiro? bueno pues alimentándose, te pone en un papel moral, de quien alimentarse es un tema, hay que saber que todas tus acciones tendrán sus consecuencias, y eso es maravilloso, el hacerte pensar detenidamente y no el matar a todo mundo sin que pase nada.
    Gráficamente tiene una estética maravillosa, con el problema que no está muy bien optimizado, da tirones bruscos por momentos, pero no lo hace injugable.
    La banda sonora es perfecta con la ambientación, precisa en el momento de ser implementada y bastante agradable y épica.

    + Combat is simple and doesn't have a complex learning curve

    Cons:
    - Combat can feel somewhat difficult at times because of the lock system because you'll end up missing hits and just get you to die often because of it
    - I've encountered some small bugs regarding audio and getting blocked
    - Minor crashes, but nothing too serious
    - No feature to fast-travel between the areas of the city, for some it might be immersive, but sometimes it takes a lot of time for you to travel from one point to another
    - The leveling system can be somewhat strange because you're not leveling up until you go to bed, so it can put you into some situations where you're absolutely destroyed by 1-2 hits from enemies who end up being 10-15 levels above you. This only happens if you decide to not kill and consume anyone.

    - игра на клава мыше руинит общее впечатление от геймплея.
    - казуальный баланс ресурсов, их невероятно много, не ощущается никакого survival элемента, хотя он вроде как должен быть.
    - отсутствие быстрого перемещения, пусть площадь игры и маленькая, есть скородки, но бектрекинг растягивает игру и никак её не красит.

    Из плюсов:
    - простенький, но интригующий своим повествованием сюжет с несколькими "вот это поворотами".
    - не плохо прописанные персонажи, одним хочется помочь, другими закусить.
    - хорошо передана атмосфера чумного лондона.
    - сносная музыка + к атмосфере.
    - достойный слэшер геймплей, если говорить о игре на геймпаде.
    - вариативность оружия и какой никакой апгрейд, прокачка персонажа (ветви развития), крафт шприцов. Все взаимосвязано, можно тестить разные билды.
    - реиграбельность, хотя бы на второе прохождение (если не лень скипать тонну диалогов).

    P.S. не хватает какого то хардкор сурвайвл режима для супер задротов с одной жизнью, где ресурсов минимум, прирост опыта за убийства персонажа минимальный, а последствия критические + вырезана способность на отхил, за счет этова система шприцов была бы более юзабилити, в оригинале надобности в шприцах практически нет.

    Another thing that impressed me a lot when playing this game is how beautiful the enviroments are and especially how beautiful the interiors of the many places you visit are.

    The weakest point in my opinion and opions of many other people is the game's combat system. It's not as bad as some people make it out to be but sometimes it does feel kinda unbalanced and buggy.

    Why do I give this game a score of 8? Because there aren't many games quite like it where your actions and decisions do matter for the fate of NPC's you meet along your journey and I also really like a game with a great story.    … Expand

    The game rewards you for maximizing the hints you gain before embracing. But. Random dialogue options lock off hints forever.

    I find this decision to be a strange design choice.

    However, it's entertaining despite this.

I wish the game was a little more gruesome with the vampire bites as it seemed a bit tame. I also wasn't sure about the no fast travel in an open world setting. I mean, I understand why they did it. The game's full map is kinda small and having fast travel would have made the game a 15 hour game vs a 25 hour game. Game would have been more fun if it had a Nioh like combat and upgrade system.

    Good combat and mechanics, decent story and a great setting. I liked the paradox between feeding on people and being a doctor. Let down by poor optimisation really and the game felt a little too long in the end. But enjoyed the game nonetheless, the feeling of a whirling death machine felt great.

    A huge console port. This aint no witcher.
    My fast review focusing on the negatives:
    Lot of bugs that don't break the game but are quiet amusing/annoying depending on immersion.

    My fast review focusing on the negatives:

    Lot of bugs that don't break the game but are quiet amusing/annoying depending on immersion.

    For example, on a certain morgue supply room quest there is an animation that triggers after obtaining X key to head towards level boss fight. It is intended to only trigger once in which the boss appears and disssapears. Once you kill said boss and return to that area the animation will trigger again but the boss remains dead.

    so you see the same guy over and over again even though he died

    The same thing for another quest leaving a certain area in which the main character notes only human left that blood and on purpose, meaning a trap is ahead which triggers a boss fight.

    well after u win, everytime u pass by there your character will repeat the same dialogue but no boss fight will trigger, u dont have to press anything either he just says it as u walk by it, and u will often for other quest. ITs quite ammusing

    Lots of other minor bugs and gliches

    the biggest problem i find is lack of save, you cannot go back or manually save, it relies on a strict auto save system which really is a lazy way of penalizing you in making wrong decisions. Forcing you to replay the game to change one thing is quiet absurd on such a "huge" game

    clone enemies
    enemies will spawn in the same area over and over again even after you wipe them out, they dont just respawn but they repeat the same animations over and over again..kills immersion quick.

    meaning you wipe a street full of thugs or vamps who are just talking or looting, well everytime you rest n pass by there they are there again DOING THE EXACT same thing.
    I mean not even walking a different route or hanging out in a different corner, nope same lazy enemy.

    There is also a false promise of open world, the world is far from open, thee are a ton of invisible walls shown by level cap. You can be fighting a level 9 enemy in the street, turn a corner and find 4 level 20's, meaning that area is off limits. You are forced to follow main quest line or else enemies with much higher levels will impede your exploration of a map thats not that big to begin with.

    This is a problem for certain reasons
    a big one was that exploring the map, in this open world rpg, i triggered a help citizen quest being attacked by vamps x3 my level, for some reason they spiked from 10 to 23, ofcourse I died and could not go to that area, however that mean that character died permanently and the district security went down.

    So the game penalized me harshly for exploring the map and the invisible wall is very clear to the level caps that impede exploration. It is very lazy
    very buggy but unique in the regard you can **** **** up as a vampire. The story is w.e, the animations for characters are not witcher more like vanilla skyrim before HD mods quality..the game is fun I wont lie, it is a good action jackson-shallow console rpg with a little bit of everything, exploration, "open world", rpg progression and side quest. However they are all doon very subpar, just good enough to pass for playable but far from perfect or the likes of The Witcher.

    Vampyr is a 3rd person action adventure rpg where you play as Dr Johnathan Reid.
    Youre dead. Well. Youre undead.
    Youre a vampire. Things happen that set you out to get answers and to save early 1900s London which is where this game is set…
    During the 1918 spanish flu…
    The game takes place in an open world with vampyr hunters crawling the streets, youre given tasks and markers on the map, and you spend the games 13 hour long campaign going from place to place, at first gathering materials for the hospital that takes you in.. in between all of these areas are of course enemies wanting you dead.. lucky for you youre a vampire… you have a skill tree that you dump your experience into that’s earned off of these enemies and that you get from completing quests and sidequests…
    and at the end of these missions theres usually a giant boss to take down, test out your skills, switching between one handed and two handed weapons, stunning enemies so you can bite them and drain their blood which allows you use the moves you’ve unlocked in your skill tree that not onlky need blood but run on a cool down as well.. and then the rest of the game youre investigating and gathering information..
    I guess you could say.. youre londons batman…
    this is when the game really starts to come to life.. you gather hints from characters that will unlock new dialog options of other charcters and you can go back and forther gathering info on the location of a person youre searching for…. But more importantly this is where the whole you being a vampire thing comes into play…
    you can play this game as a good vampire, controlling your thirst for blood.. or you caun be like me.. a naughty vampire.. sucking all that blood. If you see someone out there looking like a snack.. they can be..
    you can mesmerize characters, bring them into the shadows and drain them of their delicious blood, granting you a massive xp reward.. youre rewarded for being bad in that you can afford more skills, you become a more powerful vampire, thus the game is easier for you…
    but by doing so chaos will break loose in the territories t hat you take too much life from.. and this is where I had the most fun.. in the role playing of a vampire.. of getting my victims to invite me inside and little do they know im just a little thirsty…
    But now comes the tough love,
    Vampyr is essentially a mid life cycle ps3 game.
    There are so many mistakes made in this open world that just make this game painful.
    for starters there is no fast travel.
    there are hideouts spread all of this map where you can rest to spend your xp, refill your ammo, upgrade the weapons you find in the world.. but you cant travel to a single one of them…
    and its not like the game slowly moves you along the map, no.. these missions will have you running back and forth across this world constantly…
    this is made worse by the annoying decision to lock every single gate in the game.. you can just run from territory to territory, because theyre going to put a gat in the middle of the street that if you didn’t unlock from the otherside 7 hour ago, youre gonna have to run all the way around the map again.. dealing with other locked gates and paths…
    but a las it gets worse…
    its not as simple as running from one place to another there are enemies all over the place and you cant interact with unlocked gate while enemies are around.. forcing you to have to engage in combat before moving forward..
    but it somehow gets worse…
    the combat here is sluggish slow and unfun, special attacks use way too much blood for how little damage they do, and to get more blood you have to do enough stun damage for an enemy to be vulnerable to be bitten… fights just drag on forever.. im a vampire.. I want to feel like some untouchable god when im dealing with these hunters and vampire rejects in the streets…
    the only time the combat is fun is during boss battles.. boss battles are addictive and challenging.. forcing me to strategize.. its like the combat was made only with boss battles in mind and the street enemies weren’t balanced… fighting them isn’t fun.. theyre a nussiance.. it’s a chore
    BUT. IT. GETS. WORSE.
    youre not even rewarded for dealing with these garbage encounters
    These annoying enemies crawling all over the place only gain you 5 to 15 xp each.
    Higher level upgrades cost about 2000 xp each.
    That means you have to kill 130 to 400 for one single upgrade….
    I don’t know how this ridiculous unbalanced in risk reward was overlooked but it was..
    These enemies are far too much of a threat for you to need to kill 400 of them for an upgrade.
    Get out of here.
    That being said vampyr is still a good game.. I enjoyed the game, its currently one of my top 20 games of 2018 so far.
    Im just baffiled at the ps3 era mistakes made in a 2018 game

    First of all the early 20th century London is one of the most atmospheric and real feeling locations I've seen in a while.
    The graphics are hardly anything to write home about but the solid lighting effects and memorable art design really drive home what the developers wanted to do.

    As far as the story is concerned I've mixed feelings. The introduction is rather awkwardly done and very on the nose, but it continually gets more interesting from this point onward and features many well done surprising twists and mostly rewarding side queasts.
    Luckily the writing has improved significantly compared to the studios previous effort, Life is Strange, as well. Gone is the on awkward pseudo-teenage slang garbage. Instead we get more nuanced conversation with surprisingly deep characters, most of which seem to have at least one intereseting secret. It's by no means perfect there are still more than a handful rather clumsily written lines.
    Be that as it may we also get to make quite a few interesting choices, but again without any significant impact on the story.
    While I think the game is solid enough in terms of it's story it should by no means be compared to the likes of the Witcher or the rather obvious comparison Vampire: The Masquerade. For every surprising good twist there's one you have to roll your eyes at and for everything innovative there's one cliche.
    However the dialog dialog writing pulls the story up to a thoroughly solid experiencen of the story.
    The game also features one very uinique thing that sets it further apart: The juxtaposition of being a doctor in a hospital who's trying to help people while also being a bloodsucking vampire and the struggle of maintaining your masquerade(pun intended), which it pulls of better than even the masterpiece that is Vampire: The Masquerade.
    The haunting and very fitting score does it's part in creating the atmosphere as well.

    Now unfortunately the game has some more serious weakneses as well. Namely the combat. You get all of the frustration of a Dark Souls game, none of the fairness and some of the clunkiest control scheems in the history of video games. Everytime there was a fight looming on the horizon I found myself desperately hoping that there will be a peaceful solution or that you somehow can sneak past the danger. To my severe discontent the solution is almost always to just beat the crap out of your enemies or suck them dry. And doing so you never feel like a powerful vampire with great abilites but rather like a piece of wet tissue paper with some cool sounding but ultimately boring and for the most part useless powers.

    Overall I have to say I'm a bit dissapointed given the great setting and atmosphere compared to which the rest of the games falls a bit flat.
    However seeing as this is a story focused RPG I still feel like the good things outweigh the bad, albeit only by a small margin. But considering that vampire games are surprisingly scarce, this manages to scratch a certain itch which together with it's art design and setting set it apart from the plethora of run of the mill action-RPGs. Definitely worth a try, if only to experience a darker iteration of early 20th London and talk to a couple of NPCs.    … Expand

I love the atmosphere, character interactions, and the 'maxing out Experience points by revealing NPC secrets' feature. I enjoyed the combat once I was sufficiently leveled, but without some of your more powerful vampiric powers in the early game, it's a bit of a chore. Stealth is a possibility but it's poorly implemented and not worth it, IMO.

    All in all, it's a flawed game with a lot of good and some very bad game mechanics that break immersion later in the game if you're not well prepared. And to this day ( Nov, 2019), there are still bugs present in the game that haven't been patched out (most likely won't ever be) and some of them will stop you from completing quests with maximum efficiency, resulting in less Exp. You just have to hope that you're curious enough to circumvent them through trial and error.

    combat mechanisms are repetitive and clunky but on the other hand, the story is quite engaging and somehow it gives me Sherlock Holmes vibes.

    7/10 - Good
    (after 43 hours of playing and finishing the game)

    Solid production.
    There is no manual saving of the game, so you have to live with the consequences.
    Nice story, but it has unsatisfying moments. The ending, supposedly depending on how we play, did not suit my style of play in my case

    It's good, but definitely not perfect. Atmosphere is really great , but other aspects such as combat system or side quests... ah, not rly. After all , i will recommend it for story line.

    I did not pay much attention to the topics of sound music and it is already moderate. The game has nothing catchy in this regard as well. Its story and atmosphere is quite moderate. I think they could do much better. It gets very boring after a point. Focusing on a lot of dialogue is already reviewing everyone's story. I'm so bored.

    The only reason for enduring all the dialogue is that my patience is important in my efforts to change things, but after a point did I lose focus and just wanted it to end. The playability is bad. I can't feel that I'm exactly a vampire. In the beginning, the character cannot develop like a man towards the bad end.

    The so-called vampire comes from a special blood, but when it comes to the place of even the lowest vampires, it is a very bad beating year. I have already come to the final mission and forced me to be so much more in the last boss and I am overwhelmed that I quit and deleted the game.    … Expand

    If you ever wanted to vacation in Victorian Era London and see for yourself what Old Charles Dickens was going on about, you can now slip into the boots of Jonathan Reid, famous surgeon, and recently awakened vampire.

    And when I say recently awakened, I mean seconds ago: During the amazing first scene of the game, Jonathan crawls out of a mass grave and wanders around incoherently until    If you ever wanted to vacation in Victorian Era London and see for yourself what Old Charles Dickens was going on about, you can now slip into the boots of Jonathan Reid, famous surgeon, and recently awakened vampire.

    And when I say recently awakened, I mean seconds ago: During the amazing first scene of the game, Jonathan crawls out of a mass grave and wanders around incoherently until he stumbles into his first kill. The game puts an incredibly strong first food foot forward.

    Can the game keep that spectacular level of engagement up throughout? Not quite, but it keeps it going for quite a while, and certain aspects stay strong all the way. First thing to mention is the amazing environmental design. The color palette with its grays and browns and only the occasional splash of crimson oozes atmosphere. The mood and sense of place that the environment evokes are second to none.

    The people living in this splendidly rendered hellscape of a city are just as amazing. Almost all of them are well-written, deep characters. Some of them are tragic, some despicable, most of them have a few skeletons in the closet, and almost all of them are so very compellingly human. Some of them have a bad case of the uncanny valley face, and generally, the character design isn’t as strong as the environmental one, but still: These people feel alive and real and tragic and pitiful… It’s great!

    Gameplay-wise, the game has two modes: Walking simulator and combat.

    Combat copies a lot from Dark Souls: There is a stamina meter governing the amount of attacking and dodging you can do, there are a bunch of vampiric talents, even the most exotic of these have a grounded feeling that fits well with the established grounded and realistic mood. Still, it’s not all sunshine and violence: The hit detection isn’t quite as precise as it could be, some NPC attacks are barely telegraphed and the controls could stand to be quite a bit tighter. Still, the system is robust enough to allow skilled players to win fights with more than ten levels of experience disparity. You don’t need to do that, though, you can always eat more people. I’m getting to that.

    In safe quarters, conversation is king. Every person you meet has an opinion on the general situation, a personal story to divulge and 3 to 5 secrets to uncover. These hidden truths can be uncovered by eavesdropping on folks (an easy matter of lurking in the shadows until people behave shady and then finding the one highlighted spot where they can be observed) or by confronting them with secrets already discovered and then picking the right conversation choice. This system is usually quite forgiving, but it is possible to fail.

    The writing is great in these section: Almost all of these people were compelling characters, and the more I got to know them, the more I sympathized with most of them. This is of course what the game wants, because, as a vampire, Jonathan Reid has the option to snack on any one of them and get himself a huge boost of XP, the more secrets he has discovered, the bigger.

    There is crafting in this game, It’s not just weapons you can tape together. Jonathan is also a doctor, and with that trait on his character sheet comes the responsibility to keep the population healthy, at least if Jonathan doesn’t want his collection of blood bags to degrade in quality. He does that with self-made medicine, and it’s another way to earn XP, besides combat, snooping, pursuing the main story and eating people.

    I enjoyed that part of the game quite a bit, at first. The game sells the fantasy of being a Victorian doctor making the rounds in a plague-ridden cesspool hard. But there comes a point where everybody is healthy and every secret has been ferreted out, and then this part of the game just… stops. You can’t do anything with the information you uncover. The only thing you can do to effect change is kill people, and there’s only one or two cases where that would affect positive change. Also, the game judges you for it. This means that the morally correct course according to Vampyr is inaction: To simply let the sometimes quite severe tragedies you’ve uncovered continue.

    The main plot, meanwhile, does a good job structuring the traversal of the open world. When it comes to story, I would describe it as uneven. Some scenes are greatly engaging. Other times the script does a disservice to the plot, with uninspired dialogue. Some of the most interesting parts of the tale get too short a shrift, other times mistimed exposition dumps deflate the tension. It held together well enough to keep me engaged to the end

    As mentioned before: The technical aspects are serviceable to spectacular: Environmental design is great, lighting is great, character design is mostly fine, the score is unobtrusive, most vocal performances are fine, and I never had any problem with stability.

    All in all, I recommend this game.    … Expand

    I thought that I was going to play a Souls-like game with vampyr powers but I find a detective game instead. The combat is just a small part of the game when going from point A to point B. But most of the time you're talking, searching and sneaking during your investigations.

    The characters, conversations and the super hard decisions are really well designed.

    The characters, conversations and the super hard decisions are really well designed. The way everything changes depending on your decisions is awesome.

    Because of the many conversations in the game and how important they are, a language translation would have been appreciated.
    But I need to say that original voice acting is great so I enjoyed it.

    In the other side combat is not the best ever but it's not so important in fact. At least out of the main bosses that are different and hard enough to make the combat interesting.

    Unless you want to be a sadistic and kill most of the NPCs the experience you get from other sources is really low.
    That's a big design issue because why are you creating fancy abilities that most of the players will not even see because they lack of experience points.

    The most annoying thing in the game is how you need to maintain the districts healthy by healing NPCs all around the map. Then you sleep, they're sick again, need to create more potions and so on... super annoying.    … Expand

    SHORZZ / Vampyr: Although it did not convey the story to me exactly, the way the game was played and the atmosphere were very good. The feeling of hitting made you feel like you were actually hitting the opponent. Boss fights were tense but enjoyable. It's a really high quality game you might want to try, I think it's worth a try.

    Score: 7.4

    This is a nice game but not a great game. The setting is very cool i usually like more "happier" themes but this one was very very very fun! The only problem i have it is, it's not a real open world, we are a vampire here, it makes no sense to me that we can only walk on the floor. Yes it makes us do that soo that we can fight the NPC's, but it's not as fun as being able    Score: 7.4

    Yes it makes us do that soo that we can fight the NPC's, but it's not as fun as being able to just walk around on top of the buildings jumping and dashing through the night!

    The story was also cool, i really enjoyed it, the darker aspect of it and the ending where it depended on the number of people you killed, and the idea that we could just heal them to make their blood better. Very cool indeed

    Combat wise... Not as good.
    I hated the final fight, it just took me soo damn long it stopped being fun. And even the fights before that, they just became boring.

    I recomend it, but only if you want to play it with the combat on a second level on your mind and story first    … Expand

    A horror action adventure game with cool duels, an impressive atmosphere with the need to think about the consequences of your actions. Unfortunately, the final experience is not perfect. [Issue#287]

    It feels like the script was written by three different people. One’s responsible for all these cringeworthy lines, another came up with some truly interesting characters, and the third one thought that this would be a perfect opportunity to preach his values: for example, at one point our strictly-rational atheist doctor will have to confess his sins.

    Vampyr can bewitch with its atmosphere and conquer with the skillful delivery of a quality story. However, the RPG and action parts didn´t succeed, and the intended main pull in the form of heavy choices, whom to kill and whom to let live, is also lost to the lack of impact of your action. Although the game can entertain in the end, it often disappoints instead.
