    SoulStorm is an decent ish enough game. But it has serious problems and bizarre decisions. I like the direction the story, there is noticeably a lack of humor in this game. Especially in cutscenes. In game does have a fair amount of it. But the problem is that the game doesn't add anything to replace the humor. This makes the game feel a bit dull at points. The gameplay itself is a goodSoulStorm is an decent ish enough game. But it has serious problems and bizarre decisions.

But the problem is that the game doesn't add anything to replace the humor. This makes the game feel a bit dull at points. The gameplay itself is a good expansion of New and Tasty. But there are so many minor issues, bugs, and bizarre design choices that it makes the game feel down right incompetent at points. Like there are sick Mudokons that you need to cure before rescuing them. But you gather the material need to craft an antidote. But once you do, you have unlimited use of the antidote for the rest of the game. Which, outside of story purposes, makes me wonder why they even bothered. This game is technically a reimagining of Abe's Exodus. But outside of the general plot with the brew and some locations being in the game, it is so different that it's not even worth calling it that. They also got rid of quick saves for New and Tasty. Which is kind of weird considering that the original PS1 game had them. It's not that big of a deal since checkpoints are like 2 feet apart. But there are times where it would have been nice. The game also performs poorly on Xbox Series S. The game stutters every time you hit a checkpoint. And sometimes the game will crash. Although I would say that this game is enjoyable despite all of this. But it does make me think that Oddworld Inhabitants should seriously reconsidering rethinking their strategy. Because I can see a potential disaster for the third game at this rate.… Expand
