    It's very interesting to see a game that addresses the end of the Victorian era, even more so when they take advantage of the lack of basic sanitation to bring about a "vampire apocalypse". The game's setting is beautiful and proves that in addition to having the necessary budget to make an epic adventure, it demonstrates the love and dedication of the developers to make it a reality.It's very interesting to see a game that addresses the end of the Victorian era, even more so when they take advantage of the lack of basic sanitation to bring about a "vampire apocalypse". The game's setting is beautiful and proves that in addition to having the necessary budget to make an epic adventure, it demonstrates the love and dedication of the developers to make it a reality. However, it turned out to be a shallow experience, where the combat feels heavy and with few options for opportunities, in addition to having a character customization that leaves something to be desired and a need to grind so hard that it discourages playing killing as few humans as possible. Despite so many aspects that I considered negative, the story and the atmosphere held me in roleplay and encouraged me to follow Dr. Reid from beginning to end, not to mention that it's a good option for players who are just starting to get interested in promotional RPGs to start with something more basic. I also hope that the game will serve as a base for Dont'nod to improve in future projects; but above all, review its direction and production, which in my amateur eyes, was the great weakness of the project.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Vampyr has an original concept of level up system. You either complete side quests or suck people's blood for xp. It's a decision between morality and faster xp gaining. The xp value of one's blood can be increased by finding clues about them and by doing the mission they give you. Although some of the personal stories are interesting, the only outcome of a character's development (there are 66 characters) is death by bloodsuck or death pending. There aren't really any other resolutions but the two mentioned earlier. The side characters are simply xp storages waiting to be claimed.

    Combat is clunky at first but can be mastered quickly and be then enjoyable and fair. However, most of the gameplay is hours of mostly boring dialogues presented with monotonous voice and little to none facial animations which are seen through fixated camera view. And no, you can't hammer x because it would skip all the lines of speaker A until speaker B says something and not just one line of subtitles.

    The game is 4 years old and optimization is abominable. The game regularly hardlocks and crashes.

    Between the two main characters, there is a romance which is so forced and therefore cringe. It goes from no indication at all (not even in optional dialogues) to "you're the only a woman I've ever loved" after one 20-minute long dialogue session. And then the romance revolves around the story until the end of it. I can't recall anything so fast-forward like this. Maybe "romances" in Mafia (2002) or Metro Last Light but those are rather for a sex scene and are more irrelevant to the story. Not such great effusions.

    On the top of that, the game is brimming with woke schütt. People using "independent woman" unironically, screaming feminist/marxist slogans at night. The game sometimes lets you pick one of three answers on a question but when you catch some gays doing gay things, the only thing you can say is "I support gays" or "I support gays very much" or "damn bigots!" Same with religion related questions, you can just hate Christianity but you can choose how much (not to mention every Christian is depicted as a molester or a complete lunatic).
    There were like just over a hundred Africans in London in the early 20th century, yet you meet 4 of them and all of them whine about oppression. Historically accurate.    … Expand

    Victorian London, the worlds ablaze with a plague and you’re a vampire. Seems like quite the selling points, and to me it was. The world was as dreary as you would expect a plagued London to be. Dark cervices and alleyways, period dressage and socioeconomic separation. The scene was set up well, the characters were much akin to the high regard I give this game.

The world was as dreary as you would expect a plagued London to be. Dark cervices and alleyways, period dressage and socioeconomic separation. The scene was set up well, the characters were much akin to the high regard I give this game.

    Mechanics were functional, I enjoyed the combat, the ability progression. The natural blend of narrative and action, a combination that worked. Characters were life like, not bland or generic. London was a breathing setting, even if it was to the sound of slowly dying citizens.

    Unfortunately, as much as I praise the game it its splendour, there is that impending but. For me it was the hard crashes after twenty minutes. It’s a shame that a well-crafted world, full of charm and character falls to the clutches of backend ongoings. It’s a shame as I really wanted to explore the roots of the well-crafted levels, but alas it was not meant to be.

    In conclusion then, the world and its characters seemed well revised. The idea of being a creature of myth among the reality of a plague was insightful. Though my time was halted and swift, if ever you have better luck, I am sure that the world of which was created can play home to a chapter in a very enticing an thrilling tale, one of bloodlust and all.    … Expand

Начнем с плюсов: 1) Шикарная атмосфера. Очень напоминает бладборн, везде какая-то кровь, мрачно, некоторые локации пугают 2) Саундтрек. Очень хорошая музыка в этой игре, прекрасно дополняет общую атмосферу. 3) Главные персонажи: персонажи харизматичные, с интересными историями, мне понравилось. 4) Боёвка. Этот пункт я отнесу и в плюсы, и в минусы. В целом, при правильной раскачке удовольствие от игры получать можно. Много разных скиллов, разные виды оружия, главное всё правильно настроить и драться будет интересно. 5) Сюжет: несложный, без каких-то неожиданных поворотов, но интересный, неспешно развивающийся, мне тоже понравилось. Теперь поговорим про минусы, их в игре намного больше. Начнем с главного: 1) Баги. Очень много багов. Ни в одной игре я столько багов не встречал. Раз 10, наверно, у меня игра просто ступорилась, когда я куда-то шел и зависала, приходилось перезаходить в игру заново. Была ситуация, когда не загрузилась сюжетная катсцена.... Уж что говорить, если даже на экране загрузки во время включения игры лаги есть... Оптимизация на ПС4 ужасная, в общем, не знаю, как на ПК, но тут видно отсутствие нормального бюджета. 2) Экраны загрузки. Это просто какой-то ужас. Ты входишь в новую локацию или в какой-то большой дом, и ты должен 30 секунд сидеть на экране загрузки, ждать, когда же оно всё прогрузится. Еще одно совпадение с бладборном... В бладборне это пофиксили, правда, после релиза, в этой игре это, видимо, останется навсегда. 3) Боёвка. Если неправильно качаться и взять не то оружие, то играть будет тяжело, неинтересно и не увлекательно, ближе к концу игры надоедает. В игре, где у тебя есть ВЫБОР как качаться, билды должны быть равносильными, тут же непонятно что. 4) Кривой баланс уровней. Если играть в доброго вампира и никого не есть, то уровня не хватает вообще. Враги выше тебя на 10 лвлов, ты их просто не дамажишь, и ты ОБЯЗАН кого-то есть, потому что иначе ты не получишь уровень и не пройдешь боссов. Это поразительно в игре, где тебе предоставляют выбор - кого убивать, а кого нет. 5) Пустой однообразный открытый мир. Мир абсолютно бедный, неинтересный, смотреть не на что, просто бегаешь туда-сюда и бьешь мобов, которые заново появляются. 6) Нет быстрых телепортаций. Здесь просто без комментариев. Пускай карта небольшая, но постоянно бежать из точки А в точку Б как-то не комильфо, особенно если они в разных частях карты. 7) Побочные персонажи интересные, но болтология ближе к концу игры надоедает. Если вначале тебе интересно всё это изучать, то в конце уже абсолютно наплевать кто есть кто, однообразие надоедает.… Expand

    Vampyr is created by Dontnod, the creators of Life is Strange, because of this you would think the story would be its strongest part but oddly enough it’s really not. There are many plot points set up that pull you in but you’re left disappointed by game’s end as most of the defining points are left hanging with no definite or satisfying conclusion. I played through the game as a goodVampyr is created by Dontnod, the creators of Life is Strange, because of this you would think the story would be its strongest part but oddly enough it’s really not. There are many plot points set up that pull you in but you’re left disappointed by game’s end as most of the defining points are left hanging with no definite or satisfying conclusion. I played through the game as a good vampire, without mesmerizing and eating a single citizen, in which I got the ‘good +’ ending. Let me tell you; don’t do this type of playthrough. It’s boring as all heck.

    The menus in this game are very strange, it operates like you’re playing on a PC, having you move the joystick to get the cursor over what you want to select. But this game was on consoles and PC at release. As for reading lore, the type they chose is tiny, I often had to lean forward and squint at the TV to be able to read it all. Also, when you’re sitting there reading, if you don’t move your cursor for like a minute the game goes to the pause menu. I’m already in a menu, why is it acting like I stepped away from the game and forgot to pause? It did it four times during a long collectible page! As for opening the skill tree, you see all these skills and think there’s a lot of choice but many of the vampire powers are useless (I really only used 3 blood powers) and you won’t find yourself really needing to invest in health or stamina past 3 levels. What you do need is a high blood amount upgrade for the first half of the game, as you’ll find it more difficult to acquire fresh blood early.

    I don’t understand the reviews about how difficult the combat is. It’s not that it’s difficult but rather that it’s incredibly repetitive as there are only 3 enemy types for Priwen , 2 for vampires & 3 Skall types. You will see and fight them hundreds of times. And this is where the problem of the game not having fast travel comes into play. You’re constantly required to trek back and forth across the city and by the halfway point you just want to jump there, not keep running and fighting the same people over and over. They say & do the same thing each time. Speaking of, if you hear the phrase “I have this THIRST for blood” in your sleep, I wouldn’t be surprised. This then leads into you being OP because of all the XP from these enemies. I stopped using particular weapons or stopped upgrading them because I didn’t want their damage too high. I was trying to make a difficult fight for myself because this game will not do it for you. If you play on easy, it’s too easy, if you put it to hard, the enemies are just annoying.

    This of course leads into the boss battles being easy also. They’re called bosses but they could barely hurt me, I only used 2 health serums and 1 blood during the entire game! Sometimes you were in random locations when boss health bars popped up with names you didn’t even know, but it took little effort to defeat them as well. As for the story of the bosses themselves, it was almost nonexistent. There was no great plot leading up to the fight and you didn’t feel accomplished after their defeat. Usually you wondered why you were fighting them.

    Storywise the game starts off really strong, starts to drag midway thru and dies by the end. Vampire lore is set up pretty well, until it starts to contradict itself and established lore. Whoever heard of vampires being able to sustain themselves on other vampires’ blood? There are many citizens in each district who will acquire illnesses you must heal every time you use a bed to upgrade if you don’t want the district to fall into chaos. It’s awful because the story is usually focused on 1 district a chapter and it’s a slog to run back to heal these people. Not only that but you can talk to them all about problems they’re having and that’s that. Nothing can be done about it, you can’t be a doctor and heal the man’s arm, the 2 doctors arguing over a surgery type won’t come to any conclusion, etc. You meet a fellow vampire, Lady Ashbury, who takes you under her wing, except she never teaches you anything important and quickly becomes the worst character in the game. She felt like she was to be a mentor and yet you get clotheslined with a paper-thin romance. The lead up and reveal of your creator was half-baked and made no sense. And the game’s ending focused on the stupid romance rather than giving a nice story. It all seemed rushed.

    Overall, I’d rather play Life is Strange. If you want to try this game anyways, rent it or buy it real cheap, you’re not going to want to pick it up a second time.    … Expand

    Combat, character movement, graphics.

    CONS:
    The worlds design, graphics, sewers!

    I enjoyed my time with Vampyr; despite it feeling outdated and not quite finished. It “sucked” me in.

    7.5/10.

    I have to say that I had lower expectations of this game and to my surprise, it was enjoyable. Yes, it has its flaws, but it deserved a go. It definetly isn't a bad game, but not a great one either. I'd say it's ok.

    Típico juego que pasa de tapadillo por la industria y merece bastante la pena.

    Realmente me he llevado una grata sorpresa con el, es muy entretenido... una verdadera lastima las conversaciones (demasiadas) que acaban aburriendo un poco.

    Me lo he terminado cosa que no puedo decir de la mayoría de juegos.

    Vampyr is a collection of wonderful ideas held back by a limited budget and a dated engine.

    For those looking for a unique, dread-filled experience in the RPG realm, Vampyr offers a type of game seldom seen. But much like the streets of 1918 London, expect a few bumps along the way.

    Vampyr is unique. It’s not beautiful, its combat leaves much to be desired and its limited budget shows, but if you choose to turn a blind eye to these flaws, it will captivate you with its mature, morally ambiguous story and a series of dilemmas that usually lack a “right” answer.
