    Over hyped.

    The graphics are beautiful but character models are very ugly. The story is full of plot holes and makes little sense. Pretentious with no real substance. The characters have no growth or development. The main character is a total Mary Sue. The game makes good use of visual story telling, but the story itself never really goes nowhere and falls flat on its face at the end.    Over hyped.

    Now to the game part. The shooting is loose but all the abilities are quite fun to play around with. The map design is awful and navigation can be pain. The level design is weak. Once again, graphics and visual aesthetic over real core design. Performance is unstable on the base PS4.

    And finally the game is 8 hours along definitely not worth 60$.

    It's not enjoyable on any level. The setting is wierd and doesn't make sense in any way. Not a single interesting character, just minor fragments of a story, many, many tidbits of notes and recordings, and all are totally unrelevant and not fun.

    Missions and Sidemission are not fun. Some get repeated over and over and are just annoying.
    Graphics are partly nice, but totally bland. Level design and navigation are just terrible.
    There is no emotion involved on any level, everything is under control. The enemy is nameless and every encounter has basically the same enemy types, and they all look just unhealthy. And they keep coming. You have no idea why you have to keep fighting them at all. Combat and it's gameplay is lifeless. You are kind of required to spam your throwing powers, everything else is fluff. You find many, many mods, but they just add a percent onto something you probably already have.

    I got more and more annoyed, hoping something would get better, but it does not, it just stays at that level. It takes incredibly effort to make me actually hate a game, but this one really worked hard for it. I gave up about 3/4 into the game. Don't buy this without studying videos and really considering, is this for you?    … Expand

    Yeah, i dont get it. I found this game to be boring, horribly written, and derivative of much older games that were more fun. Again, it was like playing The Force Unleashed in a dark room with boring characters. The dialogue was bad enough to take me out of the moment, and i just didnt care about the story. It was like dollar store X-Files, with the replacement agent instead of Scully.

    The gun play was clumsy but the "force" powers were fine. I just didnt find the whole scenario interesting.

    The one thing i was impressed with, and again its just another "The Force Unleashed" mechanic, but its done well is the destructibility. The way things broke apart and cover was destroyed was done quite well. I thought it at least made the setting a bit less sterile during battles.

    Obviously, some people like this game. Im just here to offer another point of view. Before you run out and drop 60 bucks, make sure you know what the game is and what its about. I believed the hype and am disappointed with my purchase.

    Well, I gave this... thing several tries, but only after 40-50 minutes, I couldn't force myself to continue playing it! The game is boring as hell - run, cover, shoot, die, repeat by 1000! This is by far the worst game /and Rage 2 is still better/ for me of the year. Do not spend even a dollar on this! You've been warned!

    Any single player game that does not have a diffitculty settings for the player in this day and age is a no no for me. I'm a firm believer in individualism and choice and treating us all the same with no diffficulty options and especially since this is a single player game with no multiplayer aspect is so wrong.

You'll probably die once or twice each big fight, but then you learn and improve and feel great. All the way past the Ashtray Maze (a masterpiece), I really liked the game. Unfortunately, that game ends all to soon. And a new, horrible game takes its place.

    The curtain drops and suddenly you're playing a very bad Dark Souls. The difficulty scales in the most infuriating ways for every side quest and the end of the main quest. Long load times and long runs back make for gameplay loops of just dying over and over to have a slim chance at the perfection needed to succeed. When you do win a fight, it's usually because you found a cheesy spot where the AI is too dumb to engage and you just fling auto-aimed bricks. Otherwise, it's nonstop homing attacks and enemy design that couldn't be worse or lazier if it tried.

    The Jukebox is an embarrassment to good game design. The weapon upgrades and customization feels so poorly balanced that there's often a "correct" option. Although, even that can be hard to tell because this game loves to punish you for trying anything new at this point. You'll be dead before you know what did or didn't work.

    Add in bugs, crashes, and performance issues on the PS4 and your nightmare is complete. One loading screen after another. If you enjoy that amount of grind and masochism, then I hope you enjoy Control. Otherwise, play something with competent balance that respects your time.    … Expand

    The pros of this game are that it has good graphics, a good story and some interesting game mechanics like launch and the ever-changing gun for the director. However, the cons vastly outnumber the pros.

Do you like starting check points 5 minutes away    The pros of this game are that it has good graphics, a good story and some interesting game mechanics like launch and the ever-changing gun for the director. However, the cons vastly outnumber the pros.

    After even playing more of the game the absolute worse check point system of any game I have played, total dumpster fire of a system. Do you like starting check points 5 minutes away from where you died and have to fight your way back to a boss fight only to die again and do it all over again? This would also include large amount of times between check points and having to go back and keep doing over the same old garbage.

    Do you like especially long game load times?

    Do you like when every once in a while, you go into aim mode for your gun and the graphics basically block your entire view of the enemy you are shooting at?

    Do you like long, long, long gun reload times? The worst reload mechanic of any game I have ever played. It is the same gun that morphs into different models but switching (Grip, Charge, Pierce etc..) to other models does not mean you have a full magazine you only have one reload for all guns.

    Do you like whenever you empty your gun or use up all your energy the reload times basically double so you are left defenseless?

    Do you like getting a very limited amount of resources to buy upgrades and find out that the last gun you can purchase in the game should have been essentially labelled GARBAGE( it is called Charge don’t bother with it), and you find out to late that it was just a waste of resources?

    Do you like a poor mapping mechanic and getting lost and a lot of needless running around?

    Do you like when you are low health and near death to have the screen turn almost completely red and not be able to see your enemies?

    Do you like saving up to increase your health only to find out that it doesn’t matter because the enemies still one or two hit kill you anyways? (This is probably the most annoying feature of the game).

    Do you like walking a few feet out of a room you just cleared only to find everything has respawned? Learn to dash by these idiot enemies.

    Do you like being behind full cover only to be one shoted by an enemy you can’t see?

    If you answered yes to all or some of the previous questions than this is the game for you.

    This game becomes very frustrating and if I knew now before I started the game, I would have never bothered to play it. By the end of this game which I finished, I absolutely hated it. The finale is just wave after wave of guys with only one check point at the beginning of the level that I had to repeat a number of times (that happens a number of times throughout the game). Will not play another game developed by Remedy again.    … Expand

Auch die texturen wollen ums verecken nicht rendern. Das führt dazu das zb die gesichter in cutscenes aussehen wie geleckt und die Augenbrauen wie angemalt aussehen, außerdem sind die lippen mega desychron. Ladezeiten brauchen 3 Minuten nach jedem sterben und die Steuerung ist sehr matschig. Viele sagen das es daran liegt das das spiel grafisch sehr hübsch ist. Allerdings muss ich sagen das viele spiele viel besser aussehen mit mehr fps. Die schönen gameplays sind alle auf dem pc. Sogar ein nfs heat oder ein untcharted 4 sehen viel besser aus und laufen auch konstanter. Das spiel macht mit allen den sachen keinen Spaß und es ist krebs es zu spielen. Habe das spiel schon nach 3 spielstunden aufgegeben. Nichts auf der ps4 version ist fertig und gut. Auch nicht das kämpfen, denn sobald eine Explosion kommt (was häufig ist) hat man für min eine sekunde eine standbildschirm). Keine 60€ euro wert. Pc version ist super. Aber die PlayStation schafft es mit besserer hardware als der pc meiner Freundin nicht ansatzweise so gut. Wer das spiel spielen will sollte es auf einem pc machen. Da fühlt es sich viel besser an.

Terrible dialogues and monologues, where they stutter or talk to themselves, repetitive monsters. The only well made thing in this game are the graphics. Aside from that this game can be described in one word. ATROCIOUS!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Yeah i'm on rage mode. I bought this game because i'm a freak when its comes to telekinesis like sh*ts i love them. And i love the most of the games when i'm feeling i'm free. This game doesnt give you the feeling of freedom. You're playing almost entire game in a god damn building. Oo i'm flying but you know i have a god damn ceiling of my head. Let me give you a good review. First of all games graphics arts good. I loved it. But everywhere is concrete so you're feeling playing the game like its in grayscale mode. When i first started the playing this game i had a feeling this game is little bit scary the atmosphere is amazing like lord of the rings. You were embraced with darkness and the feeling of how the hell i am gonna alive this place? Then the things happened. You kill red head robot like creatures. One two tree bam bam bam then it hits you. Dude why can't i get any response. Looks like i'm killing punching bags. One two tree down. So in the beginning you think damn i'm in a claustrophobic place and this god damn monsters ain't help the mood. You see people hanging in the air and you were waiting the game needs badass foes but you are getting only the silent sh*theads. Then you are not going to understand where are you and what are you doing. You're going to speak some people and baaaaaaamm you realised your characters dialogues are like sh*ts. Ton of sh*ts. She is always sob* what i'm gonna dooo, plis help meeee sob* sob* Dude no sister. YOU ARE THE F*CKING HEAD OF THIS PLACE! WHAT KIND OF CHARACTER YOU HAVE YOU SAID I'M GONNA BE THE LEADER OF THIS BUREU. WORLDS GOING TO BECOME HISS KINGDOM. DROP THAT SH*TTY ATTITUDE.

    So i played this game to the end. There where some amazing things like superpowers. You can play whit foes with good reflexes. I said look at me ma i'm crazy as sh*t. Bam bam bam *silent noodle like foes dies* Why the f*ck i can't torture them. This enemies never going to end. You play almost entire game doing someones footwork and repetitive mission. Go there and find someone. Dude are you f*cking kidding me what kind of map is this. You have spawn point. But that building has stories. Where is the god damn spawn point. And when i die or quit the game i begin at the nearest spawn point. Don't start with the building plan. Because that buildings architecture maybe one of hiss agent i suspect. You are playing amazing game but story is sh*t, environment is sh*t. OP is crying sh*t. One thing isn't **** wepons and superpowers aaaaaaaaand one hallway in front of bathrooms. That place is looking green plants i loved it. I LOVED A F*CKING BATHROOM HALLWAY BECAUSE EVERYWHERE IS GRAY. *calms down*

    So your character is tells you, you are my only and a only family polaris. Help me. And then she's causing to polaris being killed by the hiss. God! *histerical laughs* How the hell this sheila get the job being the director i couldn't understand. So Polaris dies game ends, but not end. Story is sh*t i didn't get whats happening. I swear and swear because i needed to wait 15 min cast screen. Dude i f*cking hate this i've bought this game why the hell i cant skip this sh*t. Every time i open game i have to wait some f*cking logos thats angering me but why the hell i need to wait cast crew names? Get over it.

    So game needs to be more freedom like and color management is boring you need to give some color change. Story is like sh*t and the dialogues. I hate almost every time when Jesse speaks. She is waiting too long every between sentences and this game needs boss enemies. I though i'm gonna kill my brother but i'm went to give that douche a head massage wtf? And this is the most i'm curious about. 52 GB game, and the map is not that big. WHY? Every enemies looks alike. Flying to mold ones. I only see red, head, arms, legs. Boring. When i kill enemy at least i can tore apart them. I'm hitting them with forklift but they are like they made of adamantium and puff they are smoke. Let me see blood, broken pieces. They took my brothers and sister and made them fly in the air. And the f*cking doors. If i can't throw some huge sh*t with my finger i'm sure i can open them.

    Umm i'm thinking do i forget something. Yes. I didn't get the feeling of hero who saves people. I must have killed thousand enemies and hundreds of people but didn't get. So you need to threw some people which is medic helping some someone or yelling hail the queen. And please do not use wuss characters. When i play game i can use variables techniques and make them great but. Oo sob* what i'm gonna do now i need to save my brother like characters killing the mood. Use freedom elements such as bouce from wall, run on the wall, when character uses levitate and dash she needs to continue, etc. And i can't heal by myself. WHY? Last of all running. This girl got some god power and she can't use that to run fast? She can use levitate some extend make herself light and dash in theory. Facepalm*

The writers (both of the reviews and game) should be deeply ashamed. They (the game developers) took a great concept, which they even marketed as based on SCP Foundation, and absolutely ruined it. The main character won't shut the **** up. It's maddening. She constantly narrates everything with the most inane commentary of all time. There is zero immersion because you are not the main character, some moron is. The best parts of the game are totally immolated by this. The gameplay loop is also tragically bad. Run through office space after office space shooting enemies who for some reason take your entire clip to kill, but themselves are armed with SMGs and sometimes even forcefields (that also take your whole clip to bring down). There are no difficulty settings either, except to make yourself invincible or turn on one-hitting. Which of course, ruins any tension in the fights. The dialogue is all poorly written exposition, and then followed by more inane and incredibly annoying narration by the main character. All I could think is "why won't she shut the **** up so I can have my own thoughts about what is happening." The mystery and paranormal intrigue is the only redeeming factor, but they ripped the concepts straight from SCP, which is a much much better use of your time if you enjoy that kind of fiction content, because SCP contains literally thousands of stories, and "objects of power", and this game contains maybe 5 or so. The game's best quality is that it isn't totally linear, and you can explore around and find clues and hints about the mysterious objects and events. But this is not the focus, and there isn't nearly enough of this content to justify the game's existence.

    Lighting

    Sound Design

    Cons:
    Graphics (without ray tracing it looks extremely dated)

    Story (Literally makes no sense, ever)

    Dialog (See above)

    Controls (For a game named control, average at best)

    Level design (You are in a boring terribly laid out government building
    and then briefly transported to worlds that look like a poor mans Vex construct from Destiny)

    Enemy AI (They just walk towards you shooting, or in the case of Boss battles just terribly frustrating)

    Lets collect trash out of futuristic bins! Then we'll cobble together things later to try to add a level
    of RPG to this game cause that might be the only thing that saves it. It doesn't.)

    There is really nothing about this game worth playing. You can watch better ray tracing demos if you want to see how that works. You can play much better games with better stories, better level design, better graphics, and better mechanics that are from 5 years ago.    … Expand

    Also save system is complete insanity. After this low lever enemy kills you, you will spend 2-5 minutes walking back to place where you ware killed, just to get killed again in matter of few seconds. And if you are walking trough some previous deathmatch area, game will randomly decide to (or not to) spawn some enemies so you don't get bored.

    Story is classic Remedy meta crap about nothing and unlike Alan Wake it is not captivating at all. it is actually pretty dull and uninteresting, and unfinished. Maybe story is finished in DLC, but I have no interest in buying them because I hate this game.

    On positive side, graphic is OK and pseudo 50s USA setting is kinda nice.

    Also, players must pick up endless text notes of which 1 in 25 serves any real purpose. After being bored to death and stopping reading these moronic notes, players are left scrambling to find the important gems tossed in with garbage.

    Disappointing.

    The story was incredibly weak. They throw you into a weird, unfamiliar world and give you little to no explanation for what's going on- the characters all know what's happening, but they never coherently, concisely explain it or tie it together for the audience. They jump right into this stuff about reality and superpowers and they just- they genuinely do not explain it    Disappointing.

    The story was incredibly weak.

They jump right into this stuff about reality and superpowers and they just- they genuinely do not explain it in any meaningful way. It's like they were trying to be complicated for the sake of being "~deep~" and complicated. I didn't even know this was supposed to be a dystopian setting until I happened on a summary for the game.

    Characters were weak, even Jesse. I just didn't connect with her; she jumps into this weird nonsense and doesn't even blink at it- and I'll grant you she has Polaris, but a LOT of weird stuff happens and she just... Doesn't react. At all. There's little to no range from her; it's Sinking City all over again where a developer thinks "Noir-style Detective" means "boring, unemotive character".

    Let me put it this way: Alan Wake, yeah? Normal guy, goes to a spooky town with his wife, and some weird stuff starts happening. Not only does he react fairly appropriately for a guy in that situation, but he also acts as an audience surrogate: We learn as he learns, and this is an effective tool for immersing us in the story.

    Control does not do this. It gives us a confusing nightmare of a story full of rambling topics that make little to no sense, and we get a main character whose reaction to this is a deadpan understanding and requires little to no explanation. So how the HELL are we, as the audience, supposed to connect with her and the story? How are we supposed to be immersed in something we can't understand and the main character already KNOWS and doesn't need explained?

    It wasn't good.

    Gameplay was okay. The map system is completely screwed, though: It is nigh impossible to tell where you are because the map only has one layer; if you go downstairs, there's no indicator that you're on a different floor and it gets confusing quickly. Also, the save-points were a royal nightmare; it's one of THOSE games where it takes you FOREVER to get to a boss-fight, and then you die, and then you get to spend twenty-minutes hiking back across the map so you can- you know- die again.

    And again. And again. And AGAIN.

    I'm disappointed. I was actually really looking forward to this game and it just went south immediately.

    ETA: Another fun note: Advancing your health, your shield ability? It does nothing. Enemies can still take off a ridiculous chunk of your health no matter what you have equipped, no matter how well you've upgraded yourself. It makes pretty much zero difference, except that it makes losing a boss battle and having to hike back to it to try AGAIN that much more infuriating.

    I've downgraded my rating; this may be the first video game that I actively HATE.    … Expand

    Я тупо бл*ть дошел до конца и вообще не интересно что там и как. нах*й выключил. получил приз и вышел.

    Как сказал Ярик: "Говно из жопы а не игра. Реально ничего мне не запомнилось. Карта ебн*тая, сюжета нет". Если бы не PS+ мог попасться и купить по скидке. Спасибо Sony что спасли мои деньги.

    Удивительный кал. Никакой логики, управление игроком отвратительное, не говоря уже о самих сохранениях в самом начале карты если не нашёл где-то ещё убогую точку. Если бы я хотел ещё раз пройти dark souls, я бы сделал так, а не тратил время на таких же ботов в этой игре. Нет динамики, ужасное взаимодействие.

    this is actually a brilliant game that is fun to play. However the developers decision to lock the next-gen upgrade behind a new "ultimate edition" that is identical to the current deluxe edition of the game is a slap in the face to anyone that bought into and supported this game.

    The game is actually really good, 505 games however have ruined its legacy with shady business practices that I can't see anyone willingly supporting it. Let's shaft early adopters who championed our game and make them pay for their "free" next gen upgrade. Pathetic.

    Quit supporting trashy companies like 505 Games. The game industry would instantly be better if 505 didn’t exist.

    Walking simulator with extra "make that **** fall over"-function and some random logic no human being can see through. The interface and map design are an insult for both eyes and brain and it is hard to even remotely get a glimpse of what to do, what leaves you running around both helplessly and bored through the otherwise quite interesting idea of creating diversity by texture in theWalking simulator with extra "make that **** fall over"-function and some random logic no human being can see through.

    Constantly respawning annoying enemies, riddles impossible to figure out without walkthroughs. I don't recommend it. Graphics is blurry. Overated.

    Whoever wrote the ending of this game should never be allowed to work in the industry again. Do not play this game, it is a complete waste of time. I am so angry at the developers of this game because at first it was great, by the end you never want to touch it again.

    So many pain points it's actually hard to know where to start. Some things are great, vibe and atmosphere, and lore seems good.

    Checkpoint system is utterly terrible, having to fight ten plods to reach a boss again is a time waster. Accidentally falling off a ledge means a checkpoint reset. Lots of little freezes with menus, skipped frames, map that doesn't appear sometimes. Glitchy in    So many pain points it's actually hard to know where to start.

    Checkpoint system is utterly terrible, having to fight ten plods to reach a boss again is a time waster. Accidentally falling off a ledge means a checkpoint reset. Lots of little freezes with menus, skipped frames, map that doesn't appear sometimes. Glitchy in general. The map itself is totally useless, letters block paths and you have no idea where to go sometimes. Having no map marker sometimes and no dialogue to remind you or anything like that is frustrating.

    Crucial skills being optional is crazy, I'm not sure what the point is of something like evade or shield which are listed in the controller layout being optional to unlock. Has a totally meaningless crafting system, where you have a mythical weapon that might be derived from thors hammer. Yet the main character can somehow craft it into different things with some unknown wizardry which doesn't make sense from a narrative perspective at all. There's a skill tree but for the life of me I can't figure out why, because it's just raising one stat or another. I'm not sure why every developer has to throw in crafting and skill trees when it doesn't fit the game at all. The worst worst worst thing about this game is the brightness. If you set the brightness as they suggest, your head will hurt from how bright the lights in the game are, if you lower it you'll not be able to see 50 percent of everything because it'll be so goddamned dark. For someone who has a genuine problem adjusting to bright lights, this caused a literal headache and tbh I'm not sure what they expect to gain from doing this. I wanted so badly to like this game and I tried several times to play it, I think I'm about halfway through but I can't do this anymore. The trophies tell the truth in the end, because only 32.5 percent have obtained the trophy for the 3rd mission, and this is 10 mission game. This is pretty abysmal actually as its around the completion rate for entire gsmes, and there are plenty of games where the completion rate is 40-50 percent. Can't recommend, at all. Feels like a game made by a corporation in all honesty, and with so many weird decisions and lack of attention to detail. No one loved this game, or cared for it, or nurtured it. An "objective" review might analytically look at it and say it's fine. But it's more about how you feel, and if you want to feel frustrated, annoyed, and bored, then go ahead and buy this game.    … Expand

    The gameplay may be mediocre, but the writing and performances are the worst of any video game since the dawn of time. From the very first overwhelmingly blunt and graceless voiceover exposition dump, Control outted itself as the product of the laziest minds in recent memory.

    Rather clunky game with good graphics and weird story. I like the shooting mechanics but lack of game difficulty level, confusing layout of the maps and places that you just "get stuck" to the point of throwing this game out of the window make this a mixed experience. I didn't finish the games because at some point of time I decided that it is not worth it at all. The game is somethingRather clunky game with good graphics and weird story.

    I was so exited playing control on PS5 wiht ray tracing etc but noo, I have to choose ''different version'' of game months ago, but there is no warning.

    No, I won't play you **** ass performance and graphic version of your boring game. Here is at least I can give a **** ZERO in your face.

    Impactful gunplay bolstered by a telekinetic twist, and a mystery you’ll be turning over for a long time afterwards. Welcome to the Oldest House, Director. [Issue#167, p.79]

    The writing, direction, and performances are consistently brilliant. This is Remedy at the peak of its game. Control feels like a company rediscovering itself, waking from a long slumber. Remedy’s legs work as intended once more, the vestiges of sleep paralysis a distant memory.

    I don’t want to use the word masterpiece lightly, but what else do you call the combination of gleefully chaotic gameplay with earnest storytelling in a setting as refreshingly unique as Bioshock? What else do you call a combat system that goes so far beyond the simple act of shooting a gun without drilling down into a set of intricate menus and complicated controls? What else do you call darkly malevolent horror that doesn’t feel like it was cribbed from someplace else? What else do you call the crowning achievement of a studio with a unique voice, an uneven track record, and 25 years of experience? If there’s a better word to describe what Remedy has achieved with Control, I can’t think of it.
