So, i decided to give this game a chance. I mean, i like Jeff's work. He made GoW, do i need to say more? He also made Twisted Metal, an awesome game as well. So i download the game and first thing i noticed: Another game that wants to give that "Punk" vibe feeling...I have nothing against this, but it's not something really original.

The last game i played like this was Sunset Overdrive...
Anyway, i select tutorial and start to play. Now, keep this in mind, i am someone that likes to joke on other people...a lot. Even though i know how to keep my bearings and i never offend other players online or anything like that. This might sound like a stupid statement, but really...i kinda got bothered at how frequently the game tries too hard to treat you like an a**hole. Calling you names (even as far to offend our dear and beloved mothers) and it just felt...weird. It gave me the impression that i was playing a mod or something made by an 14-year old that just learned how to swear at people...
Anyway, the gameplay it's solid. A lot of different weapons and special abilities from different characters, but again...how is this something new? People that experienced games like TF2 or Overwatch are well aware of different characters with different abilities and such. not that this game is like any of these games i mentioned, they're not. But still...nothing really original. The weapons, though varied as they are, makes me feel like i'm playing Sunset Overdrive, which, in turn makes me feel like i'm playing Ratchet and Clank...And i DEFINETELY prefer R&C over any of these games.
After finishing the tutorial you can choose your character and customize his loadout and etc. however the game doesn't really give you a lot of explanation on how each character differs from the other besides some brief description with their special abilities and their Cons and Pros against other characters, so you'll have to test them by yourself and figure out how they play, which is not a bad thing...i think.
Anyway, i finished the tutorial, chose my character and went to play online. Spent 2 or 3 min waiting for someone and the game puts me with other 2 players...i didn't really care about that because i thought it would be a free-for all match...but i was wrong...
The game puts me in one team - The Blue Team - and puts the other 2 guys together to fight against me.
......First match ever, in less than 20 minutes that i'm playing the game and i'm already playing Online against 2 other dudes that pretty much rekt me over and over and over and over again...
No one joined my team mid-session because, as far as i can see there's not a lot of people playing this game online. That was enough reason to just quit the game and stop playing.
Drawn to Death isn't an original game, nor it is funny or fun. It's a below average Third-Person Shooter with good but shallow mechanics and unexciting gameplay. Thankfully (or not) i got this game for "free" since i am (for now) a PS Plus member. Apparently SONY was aware of how average this game was to the point of throwing this at our face with this month's PS Plus free games.
Once again Sony is treating us like idiots, maybe more so than a frog that constantly calls you an "Idiot" and a "D*ick" in this game when you play the Tutorial Section. I can't help but feel like i am truly an idiot, for spending my time downloading this abomination and for giving SONY my money for a whole year of PS Plus.
+ Art-Style is interesting. Nothing really exciting, however
+ Solid gameplay mechanics, even though they're not original at all
+ Weapon types are quite varied
- Simple and shallow game-modes
- Repetitive and boring gameplay
- Do i need to be called a "D*ick" "A**hat" "Idiot" and "W*nker" at every 30 seconds? And worst of all, by the game itself and not the players????
- Uneven matchmaking that will definetely troll you more than the game itself
- 2 vs 1 in my first match is not something that gave me a good impression of this game
I'm being honest here. Don't buy this game. If you're a PS Plus member then give it a try, but i'll warning you: You'll likely regret it. Stick with your Battlefield, CoD, Uncharted or TLoU...
Fanboys will surely hate my Review and Score...i couldn't care less.… Expand
