    No puedes sacar un shooter a 30 fps y encima con problemas de apuntado... si a esto le sumas que el juego no aporta nada y tiene problemas técnicos mal vamos. Parece que xbox se está saboteando a sí misma, otra vez.

    Lo he jugado y seguiré haciéndolo para terminarlo al 100%, pero debo ponerle un aprobado justo por haber salido antes de haberlo terminado sin los fallos en la IA y algún que otro bug. Como dato positivo: una idea original que jugado con l@s colegas resulta divertido. Soy jugador en Ps4 , Xbox y STEAM; mi valoración es imparcial pues soy GAMER y no un HATER fanboy de plataformas.

    Péssimo, horrível, medonho. Pagar caro em um console pra ter esse tipo de jogo lançado e falta de respeito.

    As someone who mostly prefers to play games that are cooperative in nature, Redfall delivers for me in a way that other games haven’t in a long while.

There really aren’t many games where you take the role of a predefined character and get dedicated narrative beats as you are playing cooperatively with friends who have all taken up different roles.

    Sure, this game isn’t perfect. Graphical issues flicker on the screen, the game has booted me out to the character selected screen once or twice. Also, it is true that the enemy AI does seem to take too long to respond, or aren’t triggered fast enough. Some of the settings around how this game controls with a gamepass need adjustment, but this is currently doable in the options. All of this however doesn’t necessarily bring down the experience all that much as the game is still challenging (on hard difficulty) and a ton of fun with friends. Moving from mission to mission with friends is seamless. Loading in and fast traveling are very quick. There is so much opportunity for moments of emergent gameplay as you work with your buddies and combine your skills and abilities to take on missions which are designed to be approached in multiple ways. More, Redfall’s atmosphere has pulled me in. I’m interested to continue to unfold what’s happened in this town. And, overall, it’s art style hits a tone of being fun but also scary, mysterious. I think a lot of the discourse around this game stems from outside factors. There is very clearly a bias against MS and Xbox and I think it has mired a very special game. But even in just a matter of a few days it’s clear that public sentiment around this game does not match the critical reaction. I’ve seen people that haven’t played on Xbox in years sign online to try this game and I’ve received multiple messages about how it’s a ton of fun.

    I would recommend giving this game a try at some point. If the technical issues are a barrier for you, I would say come back later after they’ve been patched. But overall, I see myself finishing this completely in co-op at least once and even coming back to complete multiple times in solo play.    … Expand

    This is a fundamentally broken game that no amount of patching will fix. Someone at Microsoft should’ve canned this project a long time ago.

    Some great bones here, but ultimately the performance is a nightmare and there just isn’t enough dynamism in the world they built to make up for that.

    It follows the Farcry formula, aka open world first person shooter where you 'one man army' the enemy one neighborhood at a time, but this game blows Farcry out of the water.

Keeping with this comparison Redfall has tons more enemy types (which was always my knock on Farcry), better 'outposts' where the missions are actually unique, cooler weapons like a a UV ray gun not just rifle/piston/shotgun etc., special abilities, and way less but better collectables that actually contribute to the story and incentivize you to look for them.

    Speaking from someone whos played 20 hours solo the game is creepy as hell. The game is so atmospheric and dark that I think playing with other people would kind of ruin the experience of sneaking around corners through a dark house with your flashlight. Tons of details in the world and you can actually go inside a lot of houses/stores around the island.

    Performance wise, textures take a ton of time to load and framerate is just ok. I'm writing this a week after release so pretty par for the course for games these days. Devs already said they would support this game long after the release so if you want to buy it, wait a few months. If you have gamepass its a must play.    … Expand

    The concept is brutal, the result mediocre. A game with simple graphics that would have been worth it if it had good FPS performance and better IA. With the hype that Xbox has given it, I expected much more. Hope they fix it and I can change my score.

    Although RedFall was a much anticipated game that doesn't hide the fact it came out half-baked. A bug fest, fps dipping, faulty Ai, and with a $70 price tag to add salt to the injury. Microsoft sent RedFall out to die without giving it a chance to shine.

    With Redfall wie probably have or GOTY 2023 this early in the Year. The Graphics are Breathtaking and make games like Horizon : Forbidden West or The Last of Us Part 1/2 look like PS3 games. The Details are amazing and the Gunplay is some of the best i've ever seen. The AI is stellar. The Story is left me Breathless throughout the entire game with very interesting twist and turns. This clearly there magnum opus and i have no idea how they can beat it. Redfall has some of the best Level Design you will ever seen.

    This is by far the best Game Arkane has ever made its one of the most detailed OW games i've seen in my Life. Rockstar will have a hard time to match that with the upcoming GTA VI. They really pulled it off. All bets are off now the Sky is the limit for Xbox Game Studios and the Future never looked Brighter.    … Expand

    Sin ser un juego perfecto, porque no lo es, la historia y la inmersión es de mucha calidad y se disfruta mucho jugarlo, es muy divertido. Los únicos fallos que tiene son los 30fps,la IA que deja un poco que desear y el fallo de texturas de vez en cuando. Yo lo seguiré jugando por el momento.

    The result is a game with no identity of its own. Redfall simultaneously wants to be a looter shooter like Borderlands, in an open world like Fallout's, with action like Dying light and a lengthy multiplayer experience like Destiny. But it fails on all counts. The game environments are bleakly empty, the gameplay is wooden. Like the vampires from the world of Redfall, the game has no soul.

    Sadly, Redfall had unbelievable potential and a dynamic studio behind this that is known for quality gaming, but under delivered at quite literally almost every facet of the game. Redfall, unfortunately, should be avoided, and in fact, I hope that the industry starts taking a look at these games and starts evaluating its processes, because if you're only as good as your last game, then Arkane isn't looking good at all.
