    Being a tormented soul which travels between bodies to escape Hell is a great idea. And there are some good design choices made in Agony, but everything falls apart because of its mediocre graphics, poor controls and unpredictable AI.

    Agony is a true journey through hell from the narrative standpoint as from the gamer's standpoint. If the hellish vibe is very good, the game is a mess in almost every other respect, from its limited gameplay to its truckload of bugs.

    A depiction of hell that hasn't really been fully realised before, Agony is marred by frustrating stealth sections and some poorly explained mechanics. The horrifying imagery is generally effective and the overall presentation manages to survive some glaring technical issues, but this is very much an acquired taste in every sense of the word.

    Agony is a mediocre survival horror: the dull gameplay and many controversial game design choices are the two elements responsible for this unexpected result.

    It’s such a bad fu.king video game, too. You spend 95% of Agony waiting for poorly designed AI enemies to walk past you, so you can sprint to the next area. It’s not scary, it’s not fun, it’s not interesting.

    Lamentable port en PS4 y completamente roto. Errores de pantalla de carga, intro pixelada, frame rate inestable y un screen tearingLamentable port en PS4 y completamente roto. Errores de pantalla de carga, intro pixelada, frame rate inestable y un screen tearing horripilante que hace de este juego otra muestra de falta de testeo por parte de la desarrolladora Madmind Studio y una total incompetencia por parte de su distribuidora Koch Media. Y a todo ésto le sumamos una jugabilidad pobre y tosca que lo acaba de rematar. Puede que su ambientación sea interesante pero el programa de salida es una puta mierda. Este juego no es digno de ponerse a la venta. No lo compreis.… Full Review »

    A broken game through and through. I was really looking forward to Agony and followed it from the moment it was announced.

    I really like    A broken game through and through. I was really looking forward to Agony and followed it from the moment it was announced.

    I really like Agony's setting and art direction, but after actually getting to play the game, it feels like nothing more than a boring walking simulator with stealth mechanics that don't work. One example would be me being spotted by enemies through walls. Other examples of how broken it is, is in certain levels, the lighting effects are completely broken and some NPCs dialog gets cut mid-sentence.

    It makes me wonder if the console version even got play tested before release, actually I already know that answer. Agony feels incredibly rushed and unpolished and just because AAA publishers launch games in a similar state that is no excuse for Agony or any other game.    … Full Review »
