    The game is pretty, yes it is. But it plays and feels like a tech-demo. Nothing more, noting less.

    Top-notch graphics and nothing else. That is what you should expect from this hiper linear, boring and full of rigid mechanics game. The stealth mechanics are nonsense and the Quick Time Events don't feel natural. If the atory was engaging at least, maybe it could make up for the dull gameplay, but it's not. It's also too short, but you might even be glad of that.

    I find it hard to illustrate how good or bad this game is, on one hand it isn't the worst product on the market, yet on the other it's almost an embarrassment to video gaming as a whole. I'll give it credit for being occasionally pretty, the visuals can be quite nice even with the FPS issues. Next I'll give it a point for not being riddled with bugs like some other games can be, so that'sI find it hard to illustrate how good or bad this game is, on one hand it isn't the worst product on the market, yet on the other it's almost an embarrassment to video gaming as a whole. I'll give it credit for being occasionally pretty, the visuals can be quite nice even with the FPS issues. Next I'll give it a point for not being riddled with bugs like some other games can be, so that's a positive.

    Now onto the actual game, it's incredibly short. You are looking at around 2.5-3 hours of play time with the rest being cut scenes, some cut scenes are almost 45 minutes long. Straight. Fighting is basic cover, shoot followed by tons on QTE's. As has been mentioned there are even QTE sequences that are literally copied throughout the game. It's the same exact sequences.

    This game has no replay value, no extra modes, no real anything extra. There are no choices, there is no exploring, it's an on the rails cinematic experience with poor FPS and a bad, poorly thought out story. Rent this game, beat it in a couple hours and you will still feel ripped off. This game is the definition of bad. It's the definition of a video game failure. The only reason I won't score lower is because it technically could have been completely broken and never looked pretty at all.    … Expand

    Stunning graphics, a great story, but the stupiest controls I‘ve ever seen in a game like this. The gameplay is horrible with tons of quick time event. It‘s a mess! This game has the potential for a masterpiece, but someone at the developer must soon have been said: „let‘s destroy it.“

    The worst game in the history of gaming. 75% of the game is filled with cutscenes, and there is no gameplay. One of the worst out there

    В этой «игре» плохо все, чего не коснись: сюжет унылый и штампованый, унылые персонажи говорят общими фразами без объяснений и информации, что бесит еще больше.

Черная картинка, на которой нихрена не видно, и при этом белый сраный текст на белом фоне в меню где аудиосообщения. Не раскрыто ни одной ветки сюжета нормально- какие вампиры, какие ликантропы, что вообще делают индусы?? Ни одного ответа на вопрос нет за всю игру. К середине каждой главы я забывал что вообще мы делаем и зачем, ибо мотивации персонажа нет. Короче это 1 ликантроп из 10 сраных скопипащеных локаций для говноперестрелок.… Expand

    This game can definitely be skipped. It was agony not being able to skip the God awful cutsenes. No wonder this series died immediately.

    They left open plots for a second part or a DLC that never arrived, nor will it arrive. It does not have multiplayer but the press claimed that it was the "Gears of War Killer"    … Expand

    Stupidly self indulgent. Not nearly as groundbreaking as they thought it would be. Story is weak, tried and already stale. The gameplay is basic and broken by the fixed aspect ratio. Poorly written in every regard. If I spent more than $10 on this I would be pissed.

    I was dissatisfied with the game. The game has mediocre controls, the design also leaves much to be desired, just awful musical background, a very short plot and cut-scene inserted. Cut scenes in games, especially of this genre, just spoil everything.

Me explico: La campaña publicitaria, la manera en que se anunciaba este juego fue completamente vomitiva. Prácticamente iba a ser la llegada de Jesucristo a la Tierra. Segundo punto, jugablemente el juego es repetitivo, con unas mecánicas más que explotadas, no aporta nada de su propia cosecha, y es que además tiene bugs. La moda de los "peli-juegos" creo que debe quedar más en un segundo plano y no anunciarse a bombo y platillo por todos lados. Respecto a la trama y sin spoilers, es todo un completo cliché, nada novedosa, cualquier película decente me hubiera entretenido más. Otro punto negativo de este tipo de juegos es que no son rejugables, una vez te lo pasas (o más bien lo ves) se acabó. La rejugabilidad es un punto importantísimo en los videojuegos y este nisiquiera cumple ese punto. Una decepción tras el hype que hubo por el, NO recomiendo su compra, incluso si no disponeis de mucho tiempo, no recomiendo ni jugarlo.… Expand

    An overestimated game, made mostly with marketing and advertising rather than proper game development.
    There is no possibility of upgrading your character, there are tons of useless things to do (like looking at strange objects while rotating them in your hand) and there is not much to play either (in terms of real gameplay). One of the greatest disappointment of the year.....

    This is what you get if you priorities graphics over everything else, game play is non existent and the who thing just turns into a boring experience after around 30mins.

    This game is the quintessential near miss. Unfortunately it's only aiming as high as "graphical powerhouse" and not "great game."

    It's painful to come down hard on this game, since I imagine it was rushed out to function as a launch exclusive for the PS4. And, boy, did that console need some games in the early days. But this game needed more time, if at least to tighten up the gameplay a bit. As it is, this game is simply not fun to play.

    Credit where credit is due: the visuals in this game are amazing and still outshine most anything seen today. Sure it's only 30 fps, but the richly detailed environments rarely repeat assets. You can tell that an object in the distance is made of glass or stone based on how light hits it. And for the first time ever, subtle facial animations convey subtext during conversations.

    Yet at all turns the game distracts you from its own presentation. The plodding speed at which you move through the world will make you want to pull your hair out--until the games hampers you further during certain sequences. You'll face corridor after corridor of cover-based monotony--only to die from a sudden quick time event. And the amount of screen space your character takes up, blinding you to your surroundings.

    The only other part that is great is the world-building and presentation of the story--even if the story itself is frustratingly standard. All the voice acting is great, and the writing is pretty good most of the time. But the story just doesn't have enough heart to get you to really care. And while I would have loved to see more of this story, the way the game leans into its abrupt cliffhanger ending is laughable.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game has really good graphics but the big issue i have with the game is the story.

    So it starts very well, it has a good build up, but then at the end it disappointed me. It looked like they rushed the ending and it felt short for the good story that it was until the ending.
    I don't recommend it period.    … Expand

    The fact this game wasn't pulled from store shelves is actually outstanding, this isn't a finished product it's literally a tech demo and not a good one, the story just ends at the moment where it should just start, the ending is very anticlimactic.As for the gameplay, well it's not bad nor is it great it's just so mediocore it's not interesting enough to continue playing.

    Visually it's everything you could have hoped for, but the compromises required to reach that fidelity, and moments of narcissism as a result of it, are hugely damaging. [Apr 2015, p.81]

    Although the storyline invokes weighty subjects like colonialization and socioeconomic inequality, it fails to address these topics in any substantive way. Ditto the game’s dialogue, which contains flourishes of eloquence that founder because, as pleasing as the words are to the ear, the actions they affect have no bite.
