    Ratchet and clank rift apart is another excellent game by insomniac. the variety of weapons and environments is really good and it's graphics and lightning is so incredible that it looks like a pixar movie. however I enjoyed ratchet and clank 2016's story more and sometimes rift apart enemies and it's gameplay feels repetitive and the game is too short

    Достойное продолжение серии. Загрузок в этой игре нет вообще, намного больше разнообразия оружия и гаджетов. Всем советую.

    Rift Apart is a really good game, it's fun and very enjoyable. But I think Insomniac played it very safe.

It's really frustrating. So this game is an 8 imo, not the best R&C, not the best PS5 exclusive but a good game nonetheless Expand

    Very fun to play. Story is very funny. Gameplay is very smooth and it is in fact a nice showcase for most of new PS5 features. Storyline is very short though, I finished it in four days. But this is a game that you would like to play over and over in non story mode.

    I would give it a 9 if it had a better pricing. Very good game, with great graphics and gameplay and an interesting story but it's definitely not worth 70$ at launch. I recommend to buy it and try it out on a sale, you won't regret it.

    ratchet and clank wow it has been so long since i played a solid canon ratchet and clank so what do i have to say about this game ? a short beautiful experience

    ratchet and clank wow it has been so long since i played a solid canon ratchet and clank so what do i have to say about this game ? a short beautiful experience

    pros:

    the game is so beautiful the new engine insomniac developed is just supreme

    i cant get enough of the 60 fps ray traced gameplay and the ps5 ssd holy cow the fact that you can cross dimensions with no loading what so ever is just mind-blowing

    the gameplay loop is so much fun it really brings out the old school ratchet and clank feeling

    the music and sound is very good props the the music creators

    the world building is soooo good you can just stop and look around you and see rifts opening and closing and so much stuff going in the background

    the game is very cinematic for better or worse they took the idea they did with spider man ps4 where you look at a cutscenes most of the time and after it smooths you in to the gameplay in ratchet and clank it is cool and fun at the beginning but later it just becomes tedious

    the weapons have so much verity and are so much fun there are some lazy designs but overall it is a blast to blast those weapons'

    cons:

    although the gameplay does feel like the og ratchet and clank games the writing is just trash the game just felt like a very toned down and predictable Disney movie i just feel like ratchet and clank writing just lost its edge

    rivet is a fun character and even though she's not yelling how woman are the superior being and all that sjw bull she barely gets any back story or any explanation about her out shines ratchet at his own game and felt like a very rushed character for the sake of introducing a female lead

    there are barely any sides quests and when there are some its just go collect 60 orbs or 50 stones i mean really ? no side quests in a ratchet and clank game that's just lazy

    the game is 11 hours long and i went back to collect some stuff and i did every puzzle and just 11 hours really ?!?!?! at the end i felt like they went all tech demo on us and the game was more look how the ps5 is a good console than look at our new cool game

    in conclusion ratchet and clank felt like a beautiful over glorified tech demo it is good in term of gameplay but falls short in so many other areas the game is fun and cool but i will only recommend it if there will be a discount1 at full price its just nah so my final score to ratchet and clank is a 8 out of 10

    Overall, very solid game with great graphics that showcase what the PS5 can do.

    Cons: a bit short for $70 game (~18 hrs if you do everything) with not a lot of reply value. Accessibility for all ages make the game a bit too easy (even on hardest setting) and lacking in depth.

This game truly delivers the promised future of what next gen games are willing to do at their peaks. Thank you insomniac for such a wonderful experience. in this review i am going to talk about the good and the bad and overall experience and why i think it deserves an 8 and not a 10 cuz its the weakest of the franchise and feels more like another PS5 tech demo at some aspects rather than a full fledged game.

    THE GOOD:
    and this section is going to be the longest so stay tuned...
    This game with its visuals is something really earth shaking and the people behind insomniacs animation teams and graphics engine are truly magicians! If there is one thing i need to understand is how insomniac games managed to deliver Spiderman miles morals as cross gen and Spiderman remasterd and ratchet and clank rift apart all within less than a year!? achieving technical aspects in visuals and graphics like never before and taking full advantage of the ps5 hardware, with faster loading times and the whole rifts and dimensions stuff is something unbelievable! and i dont think that even third party games will make anything similar to this game or something that will take advantage of the ps5 hardware like first party games do. And a quick mention to the graphics modes like performance rt and performance mode are great but i preferred fidelity mode for that sharp image and effects and i am ok with that 30 fps that on a screen like mine its hard to notice. i am truly a fan boy of insomniac games!
    Gameplay wise well, i have been playing ratchet and clank since day 1 on the ps2 as a kid who just moved into underwear from diapers. I have played almost every ratchet and clank out there and rift apart is the most ambitious one of the bunch out there delivering things the title hasnt seen before like the shadow dash as well as new weapons, But in big its just like its always been but improved with a much smoother gameplay rather than arcady or clunky and it is just right here.
    Sound design and soundtrack and music is unbelievable! If you have 3D audio headset or the ps5 pulse 3d you are in for a blast of a sound!!! This game really does deliver audio that i dont think even returnal has managed to deliver. Its a joy to listen to this game even if youre just standing somewhere not doing anything it really feels like youre in that universe.
    Presentation wise and world and attention to detail and the rifts are such a game changer! Thank to the ps5's hardware i dont think pc's will get to the level of releasing games in this level anytime soon. The attention to detail and animation and level design is something that makes you really fall in love with this game. World and map are made on point! and so much work has been put into them!
    And characters wise its so hard to talk about cuz i just love every one of those characters and my gosh this game is really something! by the end i clapped my hands with a smile and was so happy for the experience of this game and i cant wait for a sequel! All the characters are well acted and designed and made in such a fashion that even the new characters introduced into the series are characters i fell in love with!

    THE BAD:
    As a vet of the series i gotta admit. There is nothing to do after you finish the game and collect all the collectibles which are easy to find. The worlds are small yet detailed but they get really boring after you finish the missions within them. And the glitch missions are annoying! Like honestly i was so glad i finished with her, It was pointless and short and really didnt feel necessary. Clank puzzles are the worst they have ever been in the series! They are extremely easy and all of them are literally the same!!! I would really want to see in the future, more of secret agent clank missions and other activities like racing or collecting the captain quark cartages and playing the mini games or exploring more of the world and doing more activities rather than just collecting and doing main quests in the world. The universe of this game feels empty compared to other previous titles. And the game had issues like showing objective icons and having a few bugs like where npc's would run away from me but they werent game breaking and easily fixed with a reload.

    OVERALL
    I love this game and if you read the good and bad you know why this game is an 8 for me and with a lot of love! I truly want to see more of the series and sadly we didnt get that big ratchet and clank game just yet. Its a great way to show off the ps5 capabilities but i feel like all the focus of this game was on that rather than the actual game as a whole. After 2 playthroughs (the game is short) i think im done with this game, i have no interest going back into it anymore as much as i did when i played the 3rd game on the ps2. Was a hell of an experience but made me want more.

    Rift Apart doesn't bring a whole lot of new to the table but it does bring a whole lot of fun and that's what most of us are coming to R&C for. This is my first PS5 game so it was a whole new experience for me full of anticipation and scepticism.

    The graphics are a good showcase of a next-gen step, with three options between performance and resolution. This also the drawback, however, as when I played for high-resolution the framerate really suffered and was hard to un-see, so I spent most of the game in the two performance modes. Having said that, seeing up to 60fps is a game-changer for me. Things feel so much smoother and more immersive. Since this is an early PS5 game, it will be interesting to see where things go from here. I was quite impressed with how well the fps held up when action became hectic on-screen.

    The gameplay is very familiar to anyone who has played any R&C game before, for better or worse. What's new is the dimensionator that is quite well advertised. In the game however, I found this a tad gimmicky, as it functions as a glorified grapple-hook most of the time. There are times when you do shift to another dimension and the loading times for this is amazing, but these are also scripted and are still welcome as they provide a refreshing experience as previous R&C games I always felt 'stuck' on a level until I completed it.

    I give the game kudos also for accessibility, especially in terms of difficulty. Even on the easier levels there can be close calls with getting killed so this makes the game very appealing to a mass audience.

    What grinded my gears quite a bit were the 'mini-game' sections where you play against the virus or as Clank navigating three consecutive puzzles. Doing this once is fine because it's a break from the otherwise hectic action, but I ended up skipping Clank's final puzzles (again thank you for accessibility!) as they were very tedious and irritating - basically a 2021 version of Lemmings.

    It wouldn't be R&C without the crazy guns, and here there were more than enough to keep me occupied, and levelling them up is a great mechanic to encourage me to use a variety. The Warmonger was probably my favourite due to its sheer power.

    One very annoying thing I did notice is that when you get hit there is a stun animation which feels like it lasts forever in-game, really disrupting the flow of combat. I found this really irritating but I suppose there needs to be some consequence for getting hit, and the jetpack boots help make traversal more enjoyable.

    The story of R&C finally takes a step outside the box here. While Rivet is almost identical to Ratchet, I still found it refreshing to hear different voice actors. I've always enjoyed the camp humour of R&C and Rift Apart is no exception. The game gives you a coherent story with purpose, motivation and payoff, ticking all the right boxes. Whilst having different versions of the same characters seems repetitive and cheap, it also prevents the game from overloading us with endless forgettable characters, although I was a tad disappointed to miss out on the plumber this time.

    I think the game deserves special credit for not padding itself out with filler content. This wasn't the longest adventure, but it also wasn't one that bored me with grinding or endless fetch-quests.

    Overall, Rift Apart doesn't actually bring much new to the table but what it does right, it does very well. Despite some very familiar game mechanics and cardinal sins of gaming such as colour palette changes, the game actually manages to be engaging and enjoyable. Everything I love about R&C is here, although the price is something I do not like at all.

The artificial intelligence of the enemies is anecdotal (Storm trooper pointers do not hit anything even if they have it in front of them)

    Lo Meh !:
    This game is not a joke, it lasts 4-6 hours, it lasts longer and if you want to get the platinum trophy it will keep you entertained for a while 10-12 hours, after that there is no more. In the promotional trailers it shows moves that cannot be done in the base game. Unlike the previous Ratchet and Clank where they opted for a trans-media experience with an animated film, here they did nothing of that and it is applauded since the character is not at all charismatic.

    Personally, I loved it. I loved how amazing the haptics felt, how every gun felt different and made a different sound through the dualsense. Feels almost like the controller was made specifically for this game! The story was great, loved Rivet and Kit. To top it all off, the platinum trophy is actually attainable for the casual gamer which I feel is a rarity nowadays. The new characters and places were great, as well as the story.

    Only reason I rated it lower than a 9 was the fact that it was so short. I don't know exactly how long, but I got the platinum trophy in about 15-16 hours, and for a game that cost $70, it should've been longer. If you're not wowed by the graphics or a fan of the franchise/platform games, wait for the price to come down or when they eventually release it on PS Plus for free.

    This game is a 10 on beauty and charm, but the gameplay at higher difficulties leaves a lot to be desired. The first issue is sloppy input:
    - The dash cannot be animation cancelled into a melee attack, meaning using dash as an offensive move is all but useless
    - You cannot switch weapons whenever your feet is not touching the ground. This restriction not only makes no sense, but makes it

    - The dash cannot be animation cancelled into a melee attack, meaning using dash as an offensive move is all but useless
    - You cannot switch weapons whenever your feet is not touching the ground. This restriction not only makes no sense, but makes it impossible to fast-weapon-switch to maximize DPS while also jump/juking.
    - Double jump fails if you hold the first jump input too long and trigger the hover
    - Clambering is very sloppy, you'll clamber at the wrong height, not clamber at all. Also you can't rebound from a clamber

    While the main campaign is quite easy, it is the challenge arenas where the combat in this game really shows its cracks. Unlike Doom or Returnal, where skillful movement can make you untouchable for long-stretches of combat, in this game, enemies have a random spray to their fire. So you WILL get nicked by seemingly unavoidable, off-camera damage (the extremely low FOV doesn't help either). In the challenge arenas, you don't get much health recovery, so every hit REALLY matters. So without a way to skillfully avoid damage or recover health, too much is left to chance.

    Really nice opus and great work from Insomniac again. It does not get a higher score because my last opus was the PSP one, and well the mechanic didn't change. Nevertheless is remains a really nice game, on which they could have gone further (portal thing, less weapons but specific weaknesses on ennemies, a more specific gameplay for Rivet etc.).

    Ну, честно говоря, имеем 100% сиквел. И, опять таки как в случае с Deathloop, непонятно почему это изначально эксклюзив PS5? Я думаю PS4 нормально потянула бы такой графон. А так, большая часть аудитории просто отсечена от игры на выходе. Конечно это вероятно сделано для продвижения PS5, но Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart к сожалению как и Knack, не те игры которые продают платформу.

Конечно это вероятно сделано для продвижения PS5, но Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart к сожалению как и Knack, не те игры которые продают платформу.
    И так, игра очень похожа на игру 2016 года и я думаю если скрыть интерфейс то вряд ли с первого раза удастся их отличить.
    Геймплей не сильно изменился, даже оружие улучшается абсолютно так же.
    Имеем новую историю и новых персонажей. Хотя прохождение за Рэтчета и Кланка не отличается от прохождения за их альтр эго из параллельной вселенной, Ривет и Кит (KT-7461) от слова совсем. Даже вся прокачка и оружие у героев идентичная, качается один, прокачивается и другой.
    А в целом, как я писал выше, это те же щи, только ещё гуще. Героев стало больше, оружия то же. Картинка стала сочней, что не удивительно, паркур стал удобней.
    Ещё, мне больше понравился геймплей за Кланка/Кит, исчезли эти жопораздирающие забеги от монстров. Теперь это больше задачки на сообразительность.
    Так же в игре появился геймплей за некую виртуальную программку-паучка по имени Глючка.
    Ещё появились сеты различной брони, которые дают какие то небольшие бонусы одетому в неё персонажу, а так же меняющие его внешний вид. Мелочь, а приятно.
    Так вот, хоть игра не сильно прям отличается от предшественницы, в ней всего стало больше. И если вам понравилось играть в Ratchet & Clank в 2016 году, то понравится играть и в эту.
    Тем более, что игра лежит в PS Plus за подписку.
    Так что советую!

Rift Apart could have told its story in 6 hours, but stretches it out to 9-10 with surprise turns in the second half that feel unnecessary and seem like padding. If the game's story weren't so stretched, I would feel inclined to give this game a higher score.

К слову, сетов в игре десяток и дают они самые разные бонусы, которые бывают полезны в разных ситуациях. В игре появился второй ломбакс Ривет, к сожалению, игра за нее никак не отличается от Ретчета, просто другой скин и голос. А ведь можно было придумать ей оригинальные механики и/или оружие, эх. Сюжет, как всегда, сводится к спасению всего мира, злодеем в очередной раз выступает Нифариус(ы), короче, забывается через пару дней :) Головоломки за Кланка несложные. Арена тоже нетрудная, все три лиги пройдены быстро, испытаний немного и они не очень оригинальные. Финальный босс откровенно разочаровал, на среднем уровне практически не доставил проблем, просто поливаешь его огнем со всех орудий и всё, босс из игры 2016 был интересней и сложнее.
    В общем, самый что ни на есть обычнейший Ретчет, без каких либо откровений. 8/10 только за то, что неиспортили, и на том спасибо.

    One of the first real reasons to buy PS5. This intergalactic adventure of famous series is full of great gameplay, inventive game design, gripping story, and great characters. It's a game for everyone who owns PS5. Actually, it’s a game for everyone.

    What’s so good about this installment of Ratchet and Clank is that it is a true labor of love. There is no other way a game can feel so good, play so well, and take you on an impressive adventure all without that special ingredient to keep it going. The definition of a next-gen title, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is a must-play that will leave you super satisfied and hungry for another big game like this one.

    The experience is so captivating, you’ll probably want to blast through the entire 10-15 hour story in one go. But the final is really disappointing: basically, the entire game is just a warm-up, while the important events will happen in the next one. [Issue#254, p.36]
