    Schönes Spiel zum sowjetischen Thema!

    Die Handlung ist gemessen und intensiv, und der Ton der Erzählung lässt dich nicht vom Abenteuer abbringen. Der Kampf ist nicht so dynamisch wie in Doom 3, aber es passt zum Stil des Spiels und wird eher ein Plus als ein Minus sein. Es gibt nichts zu sagen über die Grafik - sie ist einfach angenehm, genau wie bei anderen kürzlich veröffentlichten    Schönes Spiel zum sowjetischen Thema!

    Es gibt nichts zu sagen über die Grafik - sie ist einfach angenehm, genau wie bei anderen kürzlich veröffentlichten Projekten. Optimierung - es ist schick , ich hätte nie gedacht , dass das moderne Gaming-Segment in der Lage ist, ein Spiel mit einer solchen Grafik zu veröffentlichen , die bei mittleren Einstellungen für eine 1060-Serie von Karten so gut funktioniert.
    Die Musik passt prägnant ins Spiel , da sie den russischen Geist richtig widerspiegelt. In den Kampfszenen wird temperamentvolles Metall gespielt, das den Kämpfen Antrieb und Spaß gibt.

    Fazit : Dieses Spiel ist definitiv Ihre Aufmerksamkeit wert , es sei denn , Sie sind sicherlich mit Russophobie und "Preiselbeeren" getränkt .    … Expand

    Very anticipated game for me and luckily a very pleasant result! Haven't spent much time in-game yet but have very warm feelings from it. I highly recommend if you like Prey, Deus Ex, Cyberpunk 2077, Dishonored, etc. Ones who skip the game because of sjw or political issues are crazy because the game industry is in a heavy crisis and you can't skip this diamond!

    An incredibly good game. An unusual environment of the world that is interesting to explore. Gives a lot of fun. There are some bugs, but it's fixable and will be fixed in a couple of months, so it's not critical.

    As healthy people say. If you compare the game with politics, then you are the worst person on earth, so sorry to everyone.

    The game is worth the money, an interesting, cool shooter, everything is in the style of cyber communism, old cartoons, effects, animations. I like the bosses looks cool. In general, I advise everyone to go through, who loves shooters like Bioshock, Pray, Rising.

    Atomic Heart is a game I was excited to finally play, but went in with low expectations considering how long it was in the oven. The end result is easily one of the best games I have played this year and an experience I recommend everyone dig into. It won’t be for everyone, but for those that it is for it will be an amazing experience.
    Very good game!

And they will not allow themselves to believe in happiness of USSR citizens in their own world with their aspirations and ideals. Mundfish is a special thanks for not being shy about their history and homeland and trying to show its on the bad side and also in spite of the global agenda show the good side

    Cult dystopian games come out every 10 years.
    BioShock Infinite came out 10 years ago.
    10 years later, in 2023, the Soviet RoboShock - Atomic Heart is released, which I pre-ordered and have been looking forward to since the very first trailer. All expectations are justified.

There is not much new content around which can joke without looking around and afraid to be banned by hatters with diviation. I found few small bugs on release however game is absolutely payable.

    This new studio has set a new bar for other developpers to aspire to when optimizing their games.

    The combat is aggressive and energizing. And the music omg it makes your blood boil like lava ! I swear i only bought this because i found out that mick composed the music and he delivered his one of a kind heart thumping, enraging metallic hellish chords ! They seriously didn't market his music deservingly ! This is a major selling point for this game ! On the other hand i was shocked by the amount of locks you had to pick to progress the story ! I swear i counted over a hundred locks. Whoever thought this was a good idea should be fired ! It keeps ruining the pace of the story and destroys immersion. The puzzles also were mostly annoying.

But it does have its flaws the open world is very frustrating to traverse as there is no breathing time robots are always chasing you, stealth is near to not existing, yes you can perform a silent takedown but that’s the only stealth aspect , crouching makes you walk to slow and there is no detection sistem. My ending felt a bit blank as the gloves betrayal feels to out of nowhere but that’s the only complaints I have I think that this game being this studios first project is very impressive and I’m very exited to se what focus entertainment has in store for us in the future… Expand

No, it's definitely got to many flaws. But it does so much so well, especially in a world of mundane remasters and rinse and repeat open worlds, that this game deserve way more praise than it's getting.

    Gameplay (9/10) Yes, it's a little clunky. No, ADS sensitivity. The waypoints are way to handholdy. Platforming is a bit hit and miss.

    ...but it's a boat load of fun once it clicks. The skill tree is one of the best I've seen. The amount of ways you can eliminate enemy hoards. In some ways it feels like a FPS soulsgame inspired by Half-Life, Bioshock, and most of all Prey.

    The boss fights are some of the best in the genre! It's just straight fun.

    Graphics (7/10): Meh, solid enough. In some spots absolutely gorgeous, in others PS4 era graphics. But I don't play for graphics.

    Atmosphere (9/10): The oversexualisation of everything is unnecessary. I also would have appreciated a bit more of a serious ton ala Prey... but other than that? The world is incredibly unique. This would make a killer TV show.

    All together this is probably an 8.7 but I can get if some people can't jive with the world as much But even then you should be able to appreciate the design and uniqueness. If you're giving this game less than an 8, I'm just going to assume you're a political hack,    … Expand

Absolutely 10 from 10 for the atmosphere and storyline + plus details - all the things like soviet propaganda, story, and small pieces which will probably will be understandable only to native speakers, in this game look brilliant. The best science fiction in 2023 (IMO) so far. The story is based on the soviet wave where striving for the best life in utopia led to global collapse. People who like science fiction such as Strugatsky Brothers, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, and Rob Sheckley will appreciate the storyline.
    The gameplay consists of Bishock mechanics, however, you can dodge hard attacks which reminded me of Soulslike games (taking to account that the bosses are pretty hard in there).
    Music and sound are incredible - again it seems to target post soviet native speakers. Music dynamically changes according to the environment, as in Fallout - a lot of Radio playing songs from different soviet and post-Soviet eras.
    As it was shown in the trailers - damage is visible on the mobs when you are attacking them in melee. Weapons and spells felt good :) Almost all the things which were announced by Mundfish are in the game.

    Taking to account my low expectations Atomic heart took mine now. I Hope Mundfish will not stop and will continue to work on this alternative universe like Fallout Series.    … Expand

    Sometimes maybe a bit boring, also we waiting path with subs size, FOV settings and other small and bugs which don't broken gameplay for ideal game but anyway it brilliant game in general.

    I like it. The World building is awesome, texture resolutionis not the best, but how they put everything together makes the game look beautiful. Gunplay and melee feel very good, and the crafting system is well put together. The pacing in the early game and the story/dialogue are lacking in some aspects.

    All style and no substance. Atomic Heart’s world looks the part but is undermined by poor mechanics and some of the worst writing in gaming history. [Issue#26, p.84]

    Despite being both fussy and clumsy throughout parts of the barely 15 hours the game lasts, Atomic Heart has just enough character and cool sequences to make this a game that might be well worth a closer look.

    Atomic Heart is full of stuff that will absolutely make you love it immediately, but each one of those things comes with a major flaw that ultimately pulls it back from being a great game. It's far from perfect, but will still give you hours of awesome story, world, gameplay and music.
