Hay gente de xbox poniendole 100 porque es lo unico que tienen que jugar, lo cual es lamentable pues por su fanatismo idolatran un juego mediocre. Ojala el equipo de Arte puedan ser contratados por otros equipos que tengan una mejor vision de como hacer un juego divertido.… Expand

    lousy game very monotonous and with a terrible gameplay, it does not support anything new to shooters, it only has beautiful graphics that is all

    Terrible game that is full of bugs and glitches.

    Avoid at all costs, unless you want to play it for many hours until you can't continue it because of a stupid glitch that makes a boss fight not trigger It happened to thousands of people, so don't thing it won't happen to you Against Skrendel, one simpe death then it's over Save your dollars, don't buy it and don't play it It's    Terrible game that is full of bugs and glitches.

    I knew absolutely nothing about this game and was pleasantly surprised with the intro and almost delighted when I recognised Justin Roiland as I’m a huge R&M fan.

    This is where it started to go downhill for me, the dialogue begins quirky and humorous and quickly gets old which is unfortunate as that was the only thing distracting from the dull gameplay. Also, I love I good soundtrack in a game and none of the music was really floating my boat at all.

    I can see why people like the game. In my mind its perfect for those who want to chill out in a world they’re comfortable in, with zero stress and no worries. You can plod along, tick boxes and nothing gets out of second gear. That’s perfectly fine to be enjoyable for people.

    I gave it 5/10 because in terms of my enjoyment it’d be around a 3 but I can understand how it might be a 7/8 for people. I don’t understand how anyone could give it higher because the actual gameplay just isn’t there. I’m not saying it’s terrible but certainly not good.

    Performance was fine by the way.    … Expand

    Game is amazing funny and entertaining with great gunplay and abilities you dont need to be a rick and morty fan to enjoy the game as I know people who aren't a fan of the show love this game.

    This game has something most games don't have anymore it has fun factor.

    In a world of games that feel completely the same and uninspired, this game stands out quite a bit for me.

It is so much fun to see what the characters will say if you do a certain things. I love that when I walk around, they'll be a TV playing over 30 minutes of hilarious TV content, which you totally could have missed If you didn't stop to watch the TV.

    Why is the critics review so bad? This game was amazing, if it wasn't for Elsen ring this would be my goty. Of course there are some weaknesses but mostly because it's their first game and therefore smaller budget but i pray for a 2nd part and or dlcs. Must play

    XSS | 33 Hours (Explored alot, core game probably around 10 hours or less?)

    A crazy and wild game for Roiland and actuality humor fans.

    Even though its technical problems it’s still a fun and pretty unique game in a world of more serious stories and games, nice breath of fresh air.

    Son principal défaut vient du manque de voix française (sous titré uniquement) et peut être d'un bestiaire plus fourni.

    High on Life is an enjoyable yet silly first person shooter that works on most levels. While the humour sometimes misses he target, for the most part it is quite a witty and humouress story with interesting protagonists and antagonists to be found along the way as you explore this immersive alien shooter. Definitely a game for those looking for something unique yet different in the first person shooter genre.

    Humor is sometimes tough to get right. You have to pace it right and you shouldn’t overdo it. Justin Roiland and co. unfortunately throw it at you in mindless spades and hope something sticks. And underneath it all? Just a very average shooter.
