    Muted the narrator after a while so I just had the funny animals talking with subtitles I don’t know why this is such a big deal for most people. The gameplay is relaxing and just what I need after a stressful day. Exploring the world is rewarding and fun. Combat could use some polish by sometimes it feels unresponsive and parrying and dodging does not always seem to work correctly. But smacking a big guy head first to ground is so statisfying when executed. Story and Quests are generic but everyone who played any AC game should be used to it. The most fun I had so far is the crafting. The combination of all the funny parts Items and what not is just a blast and once you get a hang of the menu it’s all not that big of deal. So in the end it’s definitely no GOTY masterpiece like a ghost of Tsushima or last of us but I never saw it that way. It’s the first project of a development team with 20 people in it and most people seem to ignore that but please ask yourself when you did something for the first time , was it perfect ? I bet not but that’s no reason to put these guys to shame for trying to bring fun into your lives. Especially in times like this. So enjoy the game if you can and if not just don’t play it or at least give constructive feedback. Cheers    … Expand

    Biomutant is an action-adventure RPG

    + Gorgeous world to explore
    - Overbearing narrator is very annoying
    - Doesn't explain some game mechanics very well
    - The Story is boring

    For instance it’s a very charming and unique game, where you can really feel that the developers put a lot of effort and heart into it. On the other side the story and especially the structure of missions are really unoriginal and get repetitive really quickly.
    Heck, most of the side quests are just like this: go to a certain place, activate something by always solving the same puzzle and then get an item, you will never use.

    Combat feels on the one hand really smooth and fast paced. But it can get really annoying sometimes due to the lack of basic features, like manually locking onto enemies. And believe me, it will happen a lot of times that the game locks onto enemies you don’t want to attack.

    Character development is basically really cool. Create your own mutated creature, choose which environmental dangers it is resistant to, decide whether you are good or bad and decide if you want to unify all tribes or become the sole leader.
    But all of these mechanics are really shallow and always feel like they get deeper at some point, but it never happens.

    But in the end, it is still kind of fun to play. It has a big, beautiful and detailed open-world and lots of content. It’s really more or less a mediocre game. But if you like it more or less than that really depends on you individually. Especially if you like exploring open-worlds, you will definitely like it more.    … Expand

    The game feels empty. Combat lacks oomph. Plenty of glaring issues that 99% of reviewers have already covered. Game has good "bones" and could have been something great. Just mediocre at this time.

    Edit: After completing the game and suffering through 67 hours of game play, I have to reduce the score.
    Could not 100% due to bugs. The game got so incredibly boring, I had to force myself to play.

It's my honest opinion that the combat in BioMutant feels a LOT better than Breath of the Wild's, and the world feels less empty to boot. So I can only imagine that going by these newly raised standards, Breath of the Wild would get a 4/10.

    I'm not just being facetious here, either. A lot of these reivews are simply unfair. Some bring up elements like the baby-talk, without having an ounce of the self-awareness required to realise that this is a game that's meant to appeal to kids. If 50~ year olds are having problems with a game like this, perhaps they shouldn't be playing it in the first place?

Biomutant is all about CRAFTING AND LOOT. The good: Crafting and looting. Zen style combat. Character customization galore. Custom mounts.

I always make sure to workout before playing videogames.

    Now, with that being said, I have had Biomutant for 5 Days now, and I have had the most difficult week in terms of my priorities in an entire decade.

    I refuse to compare this title to traditional AAA titles that we play Today because it wasn't the teams intention. It also wasn't the average size team of developers either. Even with that being said, after my first 6 hours with Biomutant I realized that I prefered its style as a whole, over my entire collection of beautiful AAA titles.

    Biomutant didn't impress me during its intro. It actually had me feeling conflicted, and worried about whether I would care enough to stick around just 2 hours in. It was about 6 hours in, when I had actually fuly grasped the combat, looting, crafting/scrapping system. Once I fully understood how it worked and how to benefit from loot and what do with bad loot, thats when the game as a whole came together and I realized that it was going to be an absolute blast of a journey.

    I am thoroughlly enjoying the narrator in this story vs the narration in a game like Immortals Fenyx Rising. Not once, has the Biomutant narration thrown me off or made me want to avoid it. Its the perfect amount of quirkiness and seriousness. The narrator talks about the beautiful scenery as you enter a new tropical location and gives you a brief history lesson. I truly appreciate that. The way that the narration unfolds the story, past and present is very personal to a gamer like myself.

    The combat system reminds me of a clunkier version of Insomniacs Spiderman. Its far from perfect but also far from imperfect. Its smooth and clunky at the same time and it works really well for the setting and pace of the game right now. The developers have stated they'll be working on that which is amazing but as it stands right now, I would be able to finish the game happily. Remembering the different melee combos is a task for me, one that Im actually happy to take on because its very rewarding seeing the name of the combo blow up on screen in comic book style letters to verify that it was done correctly. Its an instant shot of dopamine.

    Crafting/Scrapping has become the most rewarding portion of the game for me now that I have a great understanding on how it actually works. I wasn't sure what the information was telling me in the first few hours of play but after reading some forums and comments I gathered my own understanding and started to run with it. I ended up sitting on a large collection of loot and started piling up resources and creating incredibly unique and funny weapons for my character to use. I now find myself thinking while Im at work "Can't wait to loot things for 2 hours when I get home". Its something that means alot to me as a gamer right now. Genuine fun.

    Now as far as the map/locations go, Im truly confused with all the buzz on the internet about Biomutant being a lonely, dead World. Compared to what? I can barely travel on foot for more than fifteen seconds before seeing something to loot, fight or discover. And the "bare land" I have found is perfect for summoning your mount and taking some awesome photos. Right now I find myself wishing that you had the ability to climb. I really think they could have capitilized on hiding loot up top on narrow plankboards on abandoned buildings or something. But regardless, searching for loot is somehow refreshing in Biomutant comapred to many loot games and I dont know exactly why but I love it. I cannot stop moving the camera around to absorb the scenery. Its art style and locations are incredible. I love that it doesnt look nearly as good as games like Days Gone or Horizon Zero Dawn or The Last of Us 2 but it works just as well, in its own way and provides the same foundation of appreciation.

    The story is something that I feel like I dont even have enough hands on experience with to be able to talk about it with confidence. I havent actually completed a single main mission aside from what the game makes you complete before throwing you into the open world. With side quest experience, I can confidently say that the story should open up and be as exciting as Im hoping.

    All in all, at the end of the Day Biomutant impresses me, and leaves me hopeful for an amazing journey. Can't wait to put 50 more hours into this. Spectacular game.    … Expand

    Never before have I seen a game being treated this unfairly by our beloved professional game journalists.
    Biomutant surely is no masterpiece but it´s still a fun game.
    Exploration and crafting is great. Combat is ok once you get the hang of it.

    The strong point of the game.
    - beautiful open world. So much love. The Grafik are not like horizon, but the world can compete with this Titel. But u can discover so much everywhere. Sometimes assets repeat themselves, but it's okay for 20 people, crating this.
    - combat can be fun and frustrating at the same time. But man Kung fu racoon. That's a beautiful funnything. Also u can gain tribal weapons with different combos, that are different than the normal guns and weapon.
    - dressing up, and crafting. Often I find myself lost in crating some new cool weapons and must lough about a new find. A head with rabbit ears or other stuff. So much loot and everything can be useful in its right. Maybe selling, destroy or for materials or use it to revamp a new weapon.
    -interesting element system. U can also combine for example electro and fire, and u create a lot more damage than only with one element. And with ur gun u can stack a 3rd type.
    - wonderful creative stuff. Not only the animals ore enemies are sometime so cool designed. Also ur vehicals can be changed in look and are useful for boss fights and certain situations
    -this game is so different and also the same in questing, as we know from other games. But u search for funny things, that humans needed, and the narrator explaining these things. That can lead to some funny moments.
    - everything is cute and the language of the animals make me lough a lot.
    - the world isn't empty, that's a lie. Their are parts of the world empty, but that's only realistic because in some parts u can't breathe or u are high up in mountains. The only thing that I can say is-a bit more epidemic life would make sense sometimes

    Negative things

    - the voice acting is great but also boring sometimes. Also some lines are repeated. Also in mainquests and side quests.
    - the narrator is a strange thing. Because he is the only voice u can understand in this world.
    - fetch quest are in their. Repeat this, and do this. Bring me wood to re build a city and so on.
    That isn't for everyone. But it's definetly not so much as like in AC games.
    - no lock on camera. Makes fighting harder, but u can get used to it
    - the healing menue isn't intuitive. And the time do not stop, only goes in slow motion. That is tricky in the beginning.
    - ur bad and good behavior do things in the world. But not as much as u think.
    Other villages get destroyed or some people talk differently to u. 101 could do a bit more with it.
    - some decision must be made without any warnings. And can't be changed. That's okay, but not mine.
    - playing the game nearly 30 h now, and I got the feeling u have to play it a 2nd time. NG+ times are not mine either. I am from generation. U can get everything in the first run    … Expand

The gameplay itself is simple. The “skill trees” aren’t very deep and are pretty straightforward, so there’s only so much variety between classes. Crafting is also easy enough to where you don’t stress over managing your materials, and you gain enough materials throughout exploring that you get to make changes often enough. The combat targeting/aiming could use some improvement, but once you learn to work with it and not against it fights go smoother.    … Expand

    63 is too low, this game is at least a solid 7. I'm about 10 hours in and I'm enjoying myself. Combat could be better, and there are some annoyances (accidentally skipping dialogue when trying to fast forward gibberish), but other than it's an engaging and generally relaxing experience.

    Some of the oversights are also admittedly worryinglysome bad game design. For example, for speaking, an easy fix they should just show the subtitles immediately when the character starts speaking gibberish.

    If the developers had embraced the AA nature of the game by pricing it at $30, I'd probably have given it an 8.    … Expand

    Muy buen juego. Algo aburrido el tutorial del principio, y con un final un poco malo, pero el resto del juego es fabuloso, por eso no puedo ponerle mas nota a este juego, pero bueno, es algo entendible para un juego desarrollado por apenas 20 personas.

В игре прикрываются катсцены, после убийства босса модель не пропадает, но ты не сможешь забраться на него, так как нет хитбокса.В целом игра не плохая, но много диалогов, лута выподает мало.

    Really fun with a lot to do. A satisfying new IP you can get lost in. I've loved it. It's light on story but heavy on exploration and everything else. It's a really charming world too. This kind of design philosophy can be considered old school, but by no means outdated.

    I can easily recommend this game for anyone looking for something in the open world action rpg genre.

    Biomutant è un gioco... Strano. Ha pochi punti forti che però funzionano bene e possono tenerti incollato al pad, ma ha anche molti punti deboli che finiscono col farti chiedere il perché siano state prese determinate scelte durante lo sviluppo... E purtroppo, non si riesce a trovare risposte a queste domande. O almeno, io non le ho trovate.

Ha pochi punti forti che però funzionano bene e possono tenerti incollato al pad, ma ha anche molti punti deboli che finiscono col farti chiedere il perché siano state prese determinate scelte durante lo sviluppo... E purtroppo, non si riesce a trovare risposte a queste domande. O almeno, io non le ho trovate.

    La voce del narratore, ad esempio, riesce ad annoiare molto in fretta, specialmente per la presenza di tanti dialoghi che interrompono le seguenze di gioco e vengono percepiti più lunghi di quanto lo siano in realtà. Il narratore è anche presente, nella forma di piccole frasi, anche all'apertura della mappa tramite i "Cartelli", l'aumento di una statistica dopo un level up e la scoperta di alcuni luoghi. C'è una certa ripetitività nella progressione delle missioni della storia principale, che si salva in parte per la possibilità di poter giocarla come un personaggio buono o uno cattivo secondo le scelte del giocatore. Scelte però che comportano dialoghi. I quali, nuovamente, smorzano la fluidità del gameplay.
    I combattimenti sono interessanti, ma a mio avviso soffrono tanto per un sistema di abilità non abbastanza differenziato tra le varie classi del personaggio. Il mondo di gioco poi è ampio il giusto, ma un tantino troppo vuoto se viene esclusa la presenza di nemici, piccole creature catturabili con l'apposito retino, NPC e cavalcature. Il comparto grafico non è dei migliori (specialmente per un titolo del 2021) ma si riesce ad abituarcisi mano a mano che si gioca. Le boss fight sono particolari, ma anche particolarmente facili, in quanto hanno meccaniche molto giocose che però lasciano poco spazio ad una differenziazione di approcci o strategie. C'è inoltre da dire che il titolo soffre di un serio problema di frame rate e della presenza di vere e proprie botte di lag, a volte anche molto invasive. Sono rare (nemmeno troppo) ma ci sono. Il punto forte di questo gioco, però, secondo me, risiede nella possibilità di assemblare le proprie armi da zero, o modificarne di esistenti. Questo apre le porte a molte più possibilità per un combat system che stagnerebbe in una concatenazione di combo che, come detto precedentemente, sono sempre troppo simili, le une dalle altre. È un buon titolo, tutto sommato. I toni e l'atmosfera riescono a strappare più di una risata e le potenzialità nella personalizzazione sono più che sufficenti. Ha però molti difetti. Difetti che rendono il prezzo di lancio un po' troppo alto, se posto di fianco a titoli con comparti tecnici e grafici molto più importanti e gameplay molto più divertenti o impegnativi. Una quarantina di euro sarebbe stato un prezzo molto più adatto. Il mio voto sarebbe in realtà qualcosina sopra ad un 6.5 che non può riuscire, ahimè, ad arrivare al 7 pieno stando alla qualità del gioco nel momento della scrittura di questo mio giudizio.    … Expand

    CONCLUSIÓN
    En mi experiencia, Biomutant es un juego de mundo abierto que es disfrutable pero puede pulirse en algunos aspectos. Su forma de narrar la historia recuerda a un cuento ligero el cual considero cumple tiene resultados mixtos. No tiene algo que innove el combate, fabricación de objetos, mutaciones o la subida de nivel pero logra engancharte. Se siente como un juego que puede dar mucho más de sí con sus ideas, pero apostaron a lo seguro. Sin importar si fue un equipo indie los creadores, con el parche a día de hoy es como mínimo entretenido. Dado el caso que la forma de narrar no sea de tu agrado, siempre puedes entrar a las opciones para ajustarlo.

    HISTORIA DE BIOMUTANT
    Experiment 101 nos cuenta como una corporación ha provocado un accidente que casi lleva la fauna a su total extinción. A consecuencia de esta catástrofe, las mutaciones en el ADN animal se han vuelto el pan de cada día. El mundo está plagado de criaturas fantásticas que ahora están divididas en facciones con diferentes metas. ¿Es posible que tú seas el cachorro que va a salvar el Árbol de la Vida, cuya existencia es vital?

    JUGABILIDAD
    Tenemos a nuestra disposición un editor de personaje lo suficientemente variado para crear a nuestro pequeño pero muy importante mutante. Podremos elegir entre varias razas, la forma que tiene y también su clase en base a nuestro estilo de juego. Desde el clásico pistolero con gran fuerza bruta, hasta un poderoso psíquico de gran agilidad capaz de esquivar hábilmente. Biomutant ofrece una variedad razonable al momento de crear a tu peludo mutante.

    Antes de iniciar la exploración en su gigantesco mundo, el cual es muy colorido a decir verdad, aprenderemos lo básico. Un tutorial que a la vez funge de guía en los primeros pasos que damos en la aventura. Se enseña el sistema de combate, de creación de objetos, subida de nivel para obtener habilidades y poderosas mutaciones. Al derrotar a otras creaturas, obtienes experiencia que nos ayudará a conseguir los puntos para mejorar estadísticas, poderes y habilidades. El narrador estará presente en cada evento y traduce los gimoteos de cada criatura, como si fuera un cuento. Esto último puedes cambiarlo en las opciones si sientes que es muy frecuente, pero su valor por defecto es ameno.

    Incluso con estos poderes, no podrás realizar por ti mismo la tarea de salvar el Árbol de la Vida. Cuentas con un sistema de facciones para aliarte con una casa, cada una está ubicada en una raíz del árbol. La filosofía cambia para cada una pero tú decides a quién apoyar o incluso intentar salvar vidas de forma neutra. Si derrotas al jefe de la casa, además de tomar sus territorios, accederás a su arma emblema y técnicas secretas.

    Gracias a las misiones secundarias repartidas por todo el mundo, tendrás motivo de explorar cada recoveco en este mundo. Hay una gran cantidad de ellas, pero puedes viajar grandes distancias con ayuda de los postes que marcan el camino. Tienen la suficiente variedad para que te sientas con ganas de subir de nivel, obtener más poderes o habilidades. Cabe recalcar que al explorar podrás encontrarás los materiales para fabricar armas, objetos o armaduras. Estos se encuentran en centros de basura, como recompensa al vencer un enemigo e incluso escondidos en su extenso mundo.

    Aquí no podía dejar atrás el combate, el cual tiene muchas especializaciones. Puedes enfocarte a pelear con o sin armas, los poderes especiales e incluso dar prioridad a las armas de fuego. Con un estilo hack and slash, deberás esquivar o defenderte de los ataques, emplear tus poderes mutantes o artes marciales. Puedes emplear tu arma de fuego, la de corta distancia, los poderes mutantes o bien una tunda usando Wung-Fu. Si utilizas la esquiva perfecta el tiempo se ralentizará y el parry te permitirá marear para hacer mucho daño.

    Sin falta debo mencionar el sistema de luz y oscuridad, el cual afecta los puntos que puedes obtener. Las decisiones que tomas en las misiones, alteran tu aura junto a los psipoderes a desbloquear para tu mutante. No pasa lo mismo con el arte marcial Wung-Fu, el cual aumenta tus combos en el combate, ignorando tu aura. Debo decir que en este apartado tiene una IA que deja algo que desear, a pesar de tener combates entretenidos.

    APARTADO GRÁFICO
    Para el mundo abierto puedo decir que es bastante soberbio en color, diseño y variedad de escenarios. Biomutant quizás no esta tan poblado como debería y es algo de lo que suelen pecar muchos títulos del género. Aun así logra destacar de buena manera en el diseño de sus diferentes locaciones, enemigos, personajes, jefes y demás criaturas. Los jefes junto a los señores de cada casa, son los que cuentan con un diseño mucho más elaborado. En cuanto al rendimiento, no hay una caída drástica, solo ligeros atorones en momentos puntuales donde debe cargar.    … Expand

    For a team of under 20 people they did a good job. I don't understand the really negative reviews. Sure it falls short in some aspects (like the child speak and use of only one voice actor) but other than it it's a good rpg to sink some time into. I seriously believe that mainstream critics never really favour new Devs too much.

    There are some cool concepts buried in here, but you really have to dig through the incessant narrator, soulless world, and bland gameplay to get there. Ultimately this game would have benefited from stripping some features and putting more focus into just a few.

    For on open-world action RPG developed by a handful of people, Biomutant makes a very striking impression. It’s hard for me to imagine someone not falling in love with the beautiful, unique world conjured up by Experiment 101. Sure, the game as a whole is not perfect, but if a sequel is ever created, I’ll be the first in line to play it. [07/2021, p.38]

    From creating your own character to a wide array of vehicles and a unique world, there’s a lot to love in Biomutant – which makes its shallowness all the more disappointing. The inconsistent battle system and the amount of bugs doesn’t make things any better. While the game certainly knows how to hook you, the fun doesn’t last very long.

    Biomutant tries to do a lot of interesting things. It offers a potentially captivating world and unique crafting mechanics. Even the combat's fine, on the surface. The game, however, doesn't exactly play well, with clumsy controls, repetitive missions and an overemphasis on drawn-out dialogue that bores instead of inspires. This really could (and should) have been a lot better than it is.
