Dishonored 2 was disappointing in its lack of innovation, Prey was amazing, and Deathloop continues down the line of Prey in creating a unique setting and gameplay. Just because it's first person and uses guns, and has a power or two from Dishonored does not make it a clone, these are probably the same people who think Street Fighter and Guilty Gear at the same game because they're both fighters. Main character is amazing, one of my favorites in the last few years. Shooting feels amazing compared to Dis2 and Prey, they keep getting better. There's a reason the critics have given it such great reviews. You'll also have PC gamers who can't figure out their settings crying about stuttering, I fixed mine in about 2 minutes and played 7 hours now with no issues. Playing at near max settings even. The game was inevitably going to be review bombed because of jealous Xbox players and PC gamers who can't figure out how to fix stuttering, so feel free to totally ignore the low scores.… Expand

    This game is an excellent concept executed very well, haven’t experienced any bugs yet(has bethesda made a stable game?). There isn’t a ton of content, there are 4 areas but enemies seem to become very diverse as the days on. It’s worth the experience if you like the concept of being stuck in a time loop.

    While the game is not a true 10/10, it is by no means anything lesser than an 8-9 game. I'd actually give it a score of 8.5, but given that metacritic only deals in absolutes, I'd lean towards a score of a 9. The user score right now is ridiculous tho, so I'm giving it a 10 to improve it at least a little bit.

    The game plays fabulously, the story is intriguing, the interaction between the main protagonist and Julianna above all is hilarious and very well written, the combat is really fun and adequately challenging. Especially once you progress a bit further into the story. While it's true that there are only 4 locations, they are just the right size so that they don't feel small and at the same time it doesn't feel tedious to explore and to backtrack. The areas also play differently during the 4 phases of a day, and there's always so much to explore and to discover.

    The only true downside I'd point out is the AI. While it's not terrible in general, it has its "moments". One shining example is that if you are in any way above the AI's eye level, it just fails to register you at all. This one time, I was for example standing on top of a one meter tall cliff, right next to which was a road patrolled by an AI enemy. The AI was directly facing me, yet did not register me. This truly should be fixed. Like I said though, overall the AI is not so bad and it's certainly not anything to bash the game with a low score.

    I truly don't get the review bombing that's happening right now. The game might not be for everyone, but then again it's an Arkane game. Everyone should know what they're getting into by now. If you liked Dishonored you'll love this.    … Expand

    It's a really good game. There is a big number of immersive situations. You need to play, play and play to understand how to run the day correctly. I wanted to play stealth action one more time, I guess it's my problem. It is so bad, that there will not be any Dishonored in the future at least one more time.

    Однозначно игра года по моей версии!

    Amazing This game is amazing. There are some very very small flaws but, the game is basically perfectly done in my eyes. Now I did end up writing a very in-depth review, but because I’m writing on chrome on an iPhone 8, I momentarily left the tab even though I thought I had copied it (to paste just in case what happened happened, but it didn’t work. So my apologies for the lack of depth in this review

    1. The Combat, while fairly easy after a couple hours is amazing. Stealth is an easy but satisfying option every time. Every gun is unique and has its own personality (and I won’t lie the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback in the PS5 Dualsense definitely help with that) but even without that the gun play is superb. The hacking is also very ingenious and simple, while very fun. There is nothing better, than having no clue to infiltrate a compound to kill your target, without being spotted, when you spot a hackable turret in the room with them. 2. The Visuals, while staying pretty close to the classic “painting-in-motion” style of Arkane’s previous works, it still never fails to create a beautiful and detailed game-world. With the addition of Raytracing, this classic visual style is only enhanced. Also a shout out to the 60s (in my opinion more 70s Spy Thriller) atmosphere in the game. If a game now goes for a dated vibe, it will usually take tons of cues from the 50s or 80s, but the 60s/70s aren’t common and make the game feel like it has just that much more personality. 3. The Systems and mechanics of the game are very complex at times but interesting, and come together like a very hard to piece together, but beautiful 5000 piece jigsaw puzzle. The time-loop does well not to fall into a common trap set by similar time-loop like games. It doesn’t get boring. This is very important in the context of a game with a time-loop or 1 life mechanic in place, because there will inevitably be a lot of back-tracking and familiar sights. But in my time with Deathloop, I haven’t got bored at a single sight. And that, is impressive. The load out and set up screens are great at making you feel like your choice is truly respected, with many ways to set up, approach and look at a mission. Basically the game gives you a set of Objectives and lets you do literally whatever you want with them. The game is very centred around non-linear progression, and it rocks. The Loadout screen is great, and over time, you truly build up a dream arsenal, with your favourite weapons, abilities and perks (I guess?) equipped.

    4. The Levels are very distinct. Updaam is a small residential district, with lots of little apartments, independent shops and things like a mansion and public library. This has 4 time periods to explore it in, like all 4 of the levels featured in Deathloop. Each time period (morning, noon, afternoon and evening) drastically change the enemy placement, environment and even the events within the level, essentially making those 4 levels, 16. The Complex is basically what it sounds like. This is a complex… out near the ocean, with ice and snow galore at most times of the day, research facilities and the reactor/structure powering the loop. This is a very interesting level, and provides quite a bit of lore. I will leave out the other 2 locations as I do not want to spoil too much. It’s a joy to explore every environment in this game, and there is an unbelievable amount of variety for 4 levels. 5. The Music is hands down the best OST of any game this year so far. A lot of jazz and spy/mystery type notes and tunes. It really promotes the atmosphere of the game in a way only comparable to Fallout, with it’s licensed 50s music. But those were optional radio stations! This is engraved into the game. The way it almost feels like it’s playing to the sound of the in game gunfire, a bit like Doom. It’s soundtrack is a big part of the game, and that is a fact that is only accentuates how good it is. It also has some pretty big names, such as the theme tune performed by FJØRA. 6. The Plot follows you, Colt, skilled marksman and assassin trying to regain his memory after waking up on a beach on The Isle of Blackreef. He finds out that someone of the same tactical and combative prowess as him, Julianna Blake, is trying to kill him because he wants to break the loop. So, continuing what he thinks is his main goal, he intends to stop the timeloop tied to Blackreef, by killing all 8 Visionaries in one day. 7. Verdict: A very unique game full of game personality, and another high quality immersive sim from Arkane. I haven’t even mentioned the top notch voice acting and hilarious writing of the game, but that’s something I hope you find out for yourself! this is a must for any PS5 owner, and an end goal for any who don’t own the matte white tower for themselves. Pick this up as soon as possible. 10/10    … Expand

Arcane studios created a universe with traces from other games, some of them are "Dishonored" "Hitman" and "Bioshock" but it always manages to feel unique. With a gorgeous world begging to be explored Deathloop creates an intriguing story linked by charismatic characters and powerful writing.

    You play as Colt, like yourself, Colt doesn't know what is going on. Waking up on a deserted beach in the middle of the polar sea, with no recollection of who he is, Colt goes looking for answers.
    Exploring the colorful isle of Blackreef never feels like a chore, every loop has meaning whether it's to collect information of your target's schedule or to get a better weapon, you never feel like you are stuck. You have 8 main targets called the visionaries. They are spread throughout the isle in four different time periods. You must find out about the lives of the targets and gather them as close as possible to be able to attempt the perfect murder spree in one perfect loop. One of the visionaries, Juliana Blake, doesn't stand still waiting in one part of the isle. While you are hunting the visionaries she is hunting you, instead of an NPC invading you, it's a player. This gives a layer of tension to the game, never knowing when a Juliana is going to appear to ruin your party crashing. Killing visionaries will grant you unique powers, from teleporting to increased strength, they all feel powerful and can be used in unique builds. Invading a visionary's domains can feel overwhelming, from stealth gameplay to going in through the front door guns blazing, it never feels like there is a wrong option.

    Arkane created a new standard for storytelling in games, its diverging styles of gameplay, alive world-building, and intriguing mystery, make for one of the best games of the year.

    P.S I've been seeing a bunch of 0's and I would like to address them:

    -No, it's not dishonored Arkane wanted to make a new experience not dishonored 3

    -The second complaint I've seen is that the shooting feels "stiff" while I do see where these people are coming from I think that it was a deliberate choice to make it feel "stiff" Arkane didn’t want the game to feel like some same old shooter

    -The game looks, plays, and sounds fine it’s not outdated while I will say the quick-swap/d-pad buttons took a little bit to getting used to, but after roughly an hour in it felt great to use. I already talked about how it plays above, but if I hear any more people complaining about the sound design I'm going to scream because the score and sound cues are some of the best I've EVER heard.

    -Finally, while bugs are a problem they didn’t really hinder my experience that much maybe 2 or 3 crashes

    (I also think this hate stems from the immersive sim community expecting perfection from everything. take cyberpunk for example sure a bad game but it still got WAY too much hate.)    … Expand

Amazing. level design is one of the smartest iv come across, AI can be questionable at times but what game isn’t these days, that roguelite immersive sim where you need to look for clues instead of being streamlined down a road and looking at icons on a map.It's just fun to play.

The combat is great and super satisfying, while stealth remains a useful and viable option (until all hell breaks loose).

It keeps you gripped the entire time as you slowly piece together the bits of the puzzle; jumping back and forth from different times of the day at different areas of Blackreef. Finally, the way it all ties together in the end is just incredible. You feel rewarded by putting in the work and establishing the sequence of events required to break the loop.

You're Colt, and you're stuck in a timeloop of living the same day every single day on an island with a rival Assasin that other players can control or AI, and so-called Eternalists (standard mobs) who presumably are there by choice to live forever, and 8 visionaries which act as the game's bosses that you need to study and manipulate so you can kill them all off in a single in-game day to end the loop. There is surprisingly no timers during the actual gameplay so you can take your time to explore each map as long as you need, but you will mostly come to one of the 4 areas during specific times of the day to chase leads to ultimately unlock your knowledge to create a plan to off all the 8 visionaries in a single day.
    The environments are jampacked with great visual detail and storytelling through audio tapes that you can find, and notes including computers that the Visionaries chat with each other on that give you information that you can use to your advantage. There are fun guns that feel satisfying to use, as well as powers that are similar to what you had in the Dishonored games such as a teleport and telekenisis like powers or buffs. From killing Visionaries and the rival assasin Julianna you can loot Residuum, a resource which allows you to infuse powers, guns to be able to keep them forever even through timeloops... This allows you to progress your power and allow you to build different loadouts of guns and perks. The combat itself is pretty easy to cheese, and ammo is plentiful, i rarely felt the need to stealth and it's also easy to run away with your blink super power that allows you to get over rooftops with ease, especially after upgrading it. But all in all the game does what it does well, and I am excited for the future of such games involving timeloops.    … Expand

Especially as a backtracking hater.. but I loved it.. here you start with one gun and the ability to double jump, as you go through levels youl lhave to take guns from enemies, you can stealth through this game or go in guns blazing, but you have to be careful, youre only allowed to die twice in a level, if you die a 3rd time the entire day restarts and you lost everything you’ve collected.. you also lose it all at the end of the day, but eventually you do have the ability to collect the games in game currency to be able to infuse your gear and restart each loop with it. But where is all the best gear? Its on your targets.. so you can kill these 9 harcters over and over and over, getting the best weapons in the game, but not only that.. they have abilities oy uxn infuse and take with you, like the teleporting ability from dishonored, you can link enemies together and if you kill one in a link they all die, you can turn invisible, do a force pushl.. the abilities and combinging them with eachother and your weapons make this game so fun.. and as you keep killing these charcters, if you already have that ability oyull gain an upgrade for that ability… its not all huntig and lead finding though theres a charcter called jullianna that’s trying to protect the loop..she is either controlled by a friend, a random person online, or the computer depeneding on your game settings, she can come in at anytime trying to kill you, though you do get some nice rewards if you kill her first.. but you can also just escape if she enters..
    Deathloop is a crazy game, it’s a blast at times.. but the game does definitely overstay its welcome a bit.. especially for a gme that expects you to play out the same scenarios over and over and over.. by the end I was just dashing through levels as fast as I could.. no care to explore.. felt no incentive to explore and the game definitely isn’t the best to look at.. how are we in 2021 on new consoles, with a AAA developer in a game where there are only 4 not that big levels.. and it looks like a late ps3 game..
    And other tiny gripes but gripes that do exist, are the missions where you can make one small mistake and oyu have to restart the entire loop.. there are no checkpoints here.. so while you can cheese it by closing out the game and loading back in if you die too much or make a wrong choice, its still annoying to have to start the whole level from the beginning
    Overall though Deathloop is such a unique game that I ended up loving almost as much as the dishonored series..

It also takes some time to build up your arsenal but there are some really cool weapons and abilities.

    I think if you're looking for a stealth game.. this is a bad pick. The A.I is fine for combat encounters but way too jumpy for sneaking and since you can't save during a level and there are no checkpoints it's too easy for it all to go wrong. Instead it's just way more fun to think of it as an action game with stealth elements. I generally carried a rifle with explosive rounds and used an ability to link enemies so I could take a bunch out at once. I had a ton of fun leaping across rooftops too and feeling like a badass.

    There are a few negatives though. The story just isn't very good. Really cool concept but there aren't any proper cutscenes after the opening mission. So most of the story is delivered through dialogue over a radio at the start of a mission or through notes scattered around maps. There's one big thing we learn about some of the characters later on which is revealed in some notes you read and it just didn't leave much of an impact. Plus Colt never justifies his reasons for breaking the loop. He's clearly a talented killer and if i'm having fun then surely he is too. He doesn't seem to have any reason to give up his immortal life as a hunter.

    Aside from that there are a couple of glitchy trophies and I think the game could use a mission restart so when you're trying to get different achievements and you mess up then you can easily try the mission again from the start. A checklist would be really cool for keeping track of completionist stuff too.

    Overall this game was just a ton of fun. The dishonored series never clicked for me. Prey was incredibly atmospheric and fun but I wasn't in love with the combat. Deathloop is probably my favoritie arkane game now and I'm really excited to see what they release next.    … Expand

    Will take you a few missions to wrap your head around deathloop as a bit confusing in the beginning and you’ll ask yourself why are you doing the same mission twice but once you’re on top of things you’re in for one hell of a shooter. Stealth and fight mechs are top notch as well as story and the signature Arkane art style. Hope there is a second for this.

I see lots of complaints about the graphics, and playing on PS5 in 4k I have no idea what the issue is. It’s not going to blow anyone away but I had no issues with them and enjoyed the overall style and design Arkane took with this title. I’d have liked a few more weapons (you get the sniper gun far too late in the game) and having only 2 slots for slabs was frustrating, and meant I pretty much used only Shift and Aether the entire game.

    Overall this was a super experience and I’d recommend anyone who found the opening too slow (and stopped playing) to just be patient. And any complaints about gun jamming etc. happens in probably about the first 5% of the game, after which point you’ll never experience it again (as you start building your custom loadout through infusion).

Then the player is often unable to progress until they solve the current mystery, either leading to some players getting stuck, or the game outright giving away the answer. While there have been some incredible small games that have overcome this (Return of the Obra Dinn leaps to mind) I had never played a game that gave me the feeling of a detective piecing together a giant web of interconnected secrets and clues... until now.

    Deathloop is a giant (and frequently deadly) Rube Goldberg machine that begs you to poke and prod it, just to see what will happen. Levels that at first seem straightforward will begin to unfurl as you break different parts. You gain a strange sense of uneasy familiarity that perfectly reflects the story - eventually allowing you to bend the world itself to your will, watching as people act exactly how you wanted them to. You will chase piles of leads at once, often using the knowledge gained from one to solve the other. Your list of "missions" feels like the pinboard of a conspiracy theorist, and each new clue is one you sought out and earned yourself.

    I won't say anything about the story itself, as this game should be experienced with as little spoiled as possible, but its full of fun characters and twists you'll probably figure out beforehand (but feel clever for having done so).

    The gameplay starts out serviceable... if a bit dull and repetitive. It holds back many of the tools needed to be perfectly stealthy or incredibly strong, forcing you to seek them out yourself. It feels wonderful when you do reach this point, though the limited number of options you can take at any one time will likely mean you'll end up with a couple of favourites you always end up using for a large chunk of the game. The real strength of this game is how much freedom you have - you really can play this game however you like, though this does mean that no single style of play feels as polished as it could have.

    Overall, this is an incredible game that has something for everyone - I highly recommend it.    … Expand

Also, the game does not leave you guessing in the dark by continuously providing enough information to always make progress in every loop. Altough, there are still some unanswered questions at the end of the story, when you finally start your final and perfect run, you actually had an amazing adventure you won’t forget soon.

    Pros:
    - Art design
    - Level design
    - Sound design and sound track
    - Voice acting
    - Use of Dualsense
    - Combat with a variety of different weapons
    - Mystery of the story and world
    - Enough information to make progress in every loop

    Cons:
    - Loading screens and connection to server between every loop - No quick save option if you have to stop unexpectedly
    - After completing the story there were still some unanswered questions
    - The already complicated story is mostly told by collectables
    - Anti-climax ending    … Expand

    Loved this game. Had to get used to everything in the beginning. It is the same day over and over again, but your objectives change every time. Didn't do a lot of stealth play, just some good old fashioned shooting.

    It is a great little experiment with the familiar immersive sim formula which is not supposed to be more than it is. It is surely has some minor technical problems, but it doesn't make Deathloop a bad game. For me it is a solid 8, but I'll give it 9 just to compensate a little for an inadequate scores like 0, 1, 2...

    Super fun game. Had a couple of crashing issues but really enjoyed my time with Deathloop! The music is absolutely fantastic.

    Отличная игра, не понимаю жалобы на оптимизацию, играю в режиме 4к 60 кадров и всё отлично. Очень нравится сама концепция петли, как в «День Сурка» или «Грань Будущего». Хотелось бы немного большей детализации врагов, какие-то они скучные и разнообразия клинков. А так, 9/10Отличная игра, не понимаю жалобы на оптимизацию, играю в режиме 4к 60 кадров и всё отлично.

    Не ожидал, что мне игра так понравится, наиграл уже 25 часов, перед самым финалом, но уже точно могу сказать, что для меня это 8.5-9 из 10, игра понравилась больше чем Dishonored из-за навязчивого стелса

    Deathloop offers well-designed stealth levels under the core gameplay of Roguelike. At the same time, the variety of weapons and special powers also support the exciting combat. Julianna's "invasion" adds the uncertainty of the game, but may also spoil the player's experience.

    I’m honestly surprised, because I did not expect to have so much fun with Deathloop. It draws some gameplay ideas from Dishonored, but introduces time-related mechanics, offers an intriguing story with interesting characters and has its own unique and coherent style. It’s an original game, full of surprises and addictive, but not necessarily easily digestible for everyone. For me however it’s one of the best titles of 2021. [11/2021, p.22]

    Deathloop is Arkane at its best, combining its system-driven immersive-sim gameplay with a unique and fascinating story set-up. Excellent presentation and style, along with fantastic dialogue and character performances makes Deathloop one of the most innovative games in years and a valuable PS5 exclusive.
