    Gameplay: ver boring, it takes several steps back from what you could do with dishonored and dishonored 2.
    Graphics: somehow the game looks worse than the footage we saw before the delay, which already looked bad.
    Story: boring and predictable.
    Conclusion: avoid this game, it is not worth it, Arkane simply have lost their touch.

    This is why MetaCritic needs to revise it’s User Review Score system to tie to your PSN/XBOX account so it can tell if you’ve actually PLAYED the game and far enough to earn a single trophy/achievement.

When anyone can say anything they want with no proof of purchase, you get situations like this — angry XBOX fan boys upset that what could have been an XBOX exclusive is releasing on the PS5 and PC for a year first due to a deal made before the Bethesda purchase (I expect we’ll see the same with Ghostwire: Tokyo, sadly).

    The truth is, Arkane makes FANTASTIC games. Dishonored 1+2 and Prey were excellent titles from beginning to end; critically adored, and just never found an audience. I don’t blame Arkane for wanting to ensure that people know they have a video game out this time, and Sony for maximizing their marketing on it, especially after Horizon was delayed to next year and they need to emphasize the exclusives they do have for the Holiday season.

    I immediately took a liking to Colt (and Julianna). Fantastic voice acting and line delivery. Loaded with personality. Anyone who says the art style is tired is full of s*** because no other game looks like this. It’s a throwback to the ‘60s and spy thrillers of that era, with lots of bright color palettes and you’ll see words floating in mid-air that give you clues which are helpful as Colt has lost his memory.

    The name of the game is that there are four sections to this island, and you an visit them at any of four different times. But when you do, different people will be there, different activities will be going on, and there will be different things to do and find. You want to try and figure out how to kill all 8 people in a single loop, so it’s a bit of a puzzle in how to force some of them to change their plans (which they do day after day) and go to a different location or at a different time, giving you the opportunity to take more of them out at once. You unlock more tools and abilities to help you do so as you go.

    There are abilities that come directly from Dishonored (why change a good thing) and other new and inventive ones. Now keep in mind that there is also Julianna, whose singular goal is to find and kill you if you don’t break out of the loop, and she can be played by another real human being who will invade your game and try to end your luck. She’s where the difficulty and unpredictability factors in.

    People have made comments about the AI, but it’s like Hitman in that you want it to be predictable. You want to be able to learn routes, listen to conversations, pick up clues on what to do. You want to be able to influence systems. If every NPC was deadly and could kill you, the game would be beyond frustrating. The difficulty doesn’t come from fighting them; it’s from figuring out the puzzle that lets you kill all of your targets in a single loop. If you die, you do get a small mulligan and after that it’s back to the beginning of the day.

    I could see Arkane offering a harder difficulty where the AI has a wider cone of vision, better hearing, and is more responsive, but I think the people complaining about the AI don’t understand what they’re asking for. If you want a game where your heart is constantly in your chest because every little enemy could spell doom, go play Returnal (please play Returnal). This is more of a cross between things like roguelikes and Hitman and immersive sandbox games like Dishonored. But if they do patch in a harder difficulty or more responsive AI, I wish people all the best with it.

    I have not completed the game yet. I’ll revise the score when I do, but thus far, I think it would be a 9/10 for me. I’m going to give it a 10/10 to offset the people that give it a 0 and claim it has absolutely no artistic value, no gameplay value, no voice acting or performance value, no sound design or art design, no level design, etc. and it’s OBVIOUS that they a) haven’t played the game, and b) have an axe to grind because they’re 0/10 downvote brigading a game that they obviously haven’t played (and if they have, they don’t understand how a 0-10 rating system works and have never played a 0/10 game in their life if they thing Deathloop is one).

    CHANGE YOUR SYSTEM METACRITIC — MAKE US LINK OUR PSN/XBOX ACCOUNTS TO VERIFY REVIEWS, SO PEOPLE CAN AT LEAST SORT THROUGH VERIFIED PURCHASES. THIS IS WHY STEAM REVIEWS ARE A BETTER INDICATOR (right now this does have issues on PC from what I’ve heard, but I have had no problems on PS5 and have been playing in Performance Mode). So 9/10 bumped to 10/10 for now. Will revise if needed.    … Expand

    This game has grabbed me the same way Dishonored 2 did,in fact when i have finished Deathloop,im going right back to play D2. The Gun play,the powers.the way you can utterly mess up a plan and pull it back is very entertaining... Do yourself a favour and plays this game.

    Сразу после приобретения Bethesda, Microsoft должны были расторгнуть сделку, совершенную другими людьми и выпустить игру на Xbox в Game Pass, придерживаясь своей политики в отношении развития подписки.

    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...

None of the different visual modes seem to change the way the game feels. The game just isn't much fun to play and that for me has been a true turn off.

Deathloop dares to do something new and in an age where yearly sports games are often top sellers, it’s no surprise that many people don’t like the break from ‘generic first person shooter’ that their used to in most triple a games. The a.I. Is a little lacking but the graphics, while not perfect are far from outdated, they’re styled in a way that gives the game a fantastic aesthetic. The gunplay is better than that of dishonoured, it could be a little more rounded but I quite enjoyed the slight clunky feel to the weapons, considering their mostly high power, close range weapons. the game reveals its hand a little to fast at the beginning and clears some of the major mysteries too fast, that being said there was plenty to keep the plot rolling till the end.

    Many of the people playing this game are unaware that half the game is exploration and learning. Your not buying a shoot’em’up when you buy deathloop, the mass murder is only half the game. The other half is sneaking around, manipulating your targets, lining them up to be in the same areas at once, and preparing for your murder charge. You have to be willing to enjoy and embrace the exploration as its a requirement to reach the more satisfying battles when you got 3 targets in the same building at once, (For example). If the flashy gunplay in the trauilers was what brought you here than your gonna need to get used to the other side. Don’t be mistaken, the exploring and learning isn’t a drag, its quite fun, as is most sneaking around in any arcane game. But if your gonna hate every second of it don’t bother.

    one refreshing thing about deathloop is putting its trust in the player. There are no difficulty options, and you will find some parts a breeze, and others painfullly irritating. If you keep dying against the same visionary over and over again, that’s the game telling you that you need to let that one go for now and bet better knowledge, gear or tactics. Not many games will let you throw yourself at a hurdle, knowing your not gonna get over it. If something is too hard, then you need to work around it, put the target somewhere else, come back at a different time of day, try a different approach, try being sneaky. The game wont tell you this, you just have to have the brain cells to figure it out. yourself.

    Deathloop is great, fantastic even. its not without minor flaws but they were never enough to keep me even remotely held up on them. frankly this game doesn’t quite exist anywhere else and i recommend giving it a shot. But remember its and arcane game, not an activision, gearbox or blizzard game, know what your buying and whether you’ll enjoy it. once your past the start you have to figure **** out yourself, and the fact that the game puts any trust in the players ability to think instantly sets it apart from the herd.

    note: the game is a little more linear than you would expect. you’ll often go into an area with an objective. While in the area you can in fact do anything you want, but you’ll often stay on track for the objective you set yourself. This doesn’t take away from the game though, in fact i believe it strengthens it.    … Expand

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.

    Not really a Huge Fan Of Arkane but DEATHLOOP ( aside from the performance issues and poor AI which I'm hoping they'll fix in a patch) is an absolute Joy to discover!

Отличный эксперимент от разработчиков, на PS5 игра идёт очень даже хорошо. К сожалению, недочеты были, но мне они впечатление не испортили. 1) Искусственный интеллект. Я умудрялся проходить по стелсу миссии с пистолет из Deluxe издания. А он без глушителя. Враг мог умереть в нескольких сантиметрах от напарника, а тот даже не заметит. Враги не слышали пуль, пролетающих рядом с их головой. Однако, мне это не мешало, тк в процессе игры стелс ушёл на второй план - я всегда шёл напролом. Любителям скрытности эти грехи точно не понравятся.

    2) Боссы. Ими являются ваши цели - идеологи. Они интересны, с отличным бэкграундом. Но не ждите невероятных баталий с ними. Точнее, они могу быть, но очень редко, и, скорее всего, лишь в начале вашего прохождения. Убиваются многие из них либо со спины, либо с нескольких выстрелов в голову (что довольно легко).

    3) Прокачка. Бесполезная с середины игры. Собрав необходимый арсенал, вам уже не будет нужно искать новые брелоки, оружие и прочее. 4) Концовка игры. Честно - ждал большего. Сюжет же в игре очень интересен, диалоги отличные, персонажи прекрасно раскрываются, дуэли с Джули - одно удовольствие, а концепт игры толкает на различные философские мысли. И именно эти аспекты игры не дали мне снизить оценку ниже максимальной. Советую!    … Expand

    Arkane's back with another masterwork. This game isn't anywhere near as complex as Prey and Mooncrash, but considering how that game's complexity largely failed to capture an audience, I think Deathloop's more broadly appealing design is exactly what the studio needed.

    Spent hours just combing through one area at one time of day, but other time of days can yield drastic differences, that can really force you out of your comfort zone (particularly the first time through).

Anyone saying this does nothing new couldn’t be more wrong IMO - there’s nothing quite like Deathloop.

    If it’s a niche game, I fit well within that niche. It pulls gameplay elements from a wide variety of different games into one in a really unique way. Just to name a few examples:

    - In a way, it feels like a shooter/action spin the Outer Wilds gameplay loop (one of my favorite games ever). Progressing the story is one big puzzle - taking clues and information you find to get further on the next loop, slowly piecing together the correct sequence of events together to complete the story. - It’s kinda rogue-lite, but don’t let that scare you away if you aren’t a fan of that genre - it takes all the things I love about roguelites while cutting out the things I dislike. It isn’t an endless grind and as you progress, you’ll be able to keep your favorite weapons for future loops. In some ways it feels more like a metroidvania. - It’s a sandbox style game, allowing you to approach things in a variety of different ways. It reminds me of Hitman in that sense… though the actual gameplay mechanics are very different from the Hitman games. - The PvE gameplay mechanics are very similar to Arkane’s own Dishonored, without the guilt trip over killing NPCs. - PVP works a lot like Dark Souls invasions, but are significantly better integrated into the story. This does a lot to keep you on your toes and should add some replay value. Now there are definitely flaws - the AI is exceptionally dumb and combat is way easier than I would have preferred. There are also bugs that need to be worked out. All said, I’m really enjoying my time with Deathloop so far - aside from RE8, this is the most hooked I’ve been on a game in 2021 so far. I didn’t expect much from this one, but it’s been an excellent surprise.    … Expand

    It has music and style, but that's about it.

    Sorry to write this, but it's completely impossible to play RT mode on PS5. The mode itself looks disgusting (what happens to the shadows cannot be described in words), so it also starts at 30fps. Dear Arkane Games, please fix RT mode to PC level and make it 60fps. I really like the game, but what happens to the technical part is just awful.

    It's an unique, creative and extremely fun game, that demands thinkingness and strategy to progress. The developers diserve to be praised for risking making a game diffrent from what we're used to see as a triple A title,

    Few bugs and I’ve had 1 game breaking bug however that aside I’ve really enjoyed playing it so far. Don’t regret buying the deluxe version for my PS5.
    Only reason 9/10 is because of the game breaking bug I had and I lost about 35 minutes of game play.

    The graphics are terrible and look very cartoonish. This whole "artstyle" stuff is just an excuse for developers to be cheap and lazy. When I pay $60, I expect high quality visuals, especially if it is a next-gen only game. The loop stuff is also an excuse to make the short campaign longer. The sound effects are laugable. The animations are trash. The physics are beyond horrible. The textures are pathetic, especially the water textures.

    The multiplayer is so boring. You can only play 1v1 invasion. No team deathmatch, no capture the flag, no nothing. The greedy developers were too cheap and lazy to develop a multiplayer that can hold at least 4 players. I don't recommend this game at all. Nothing in this game screams next-gen. It could have easily been a cross-gen game.    … Expand

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.

    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.
