What's the deal with the game raising image contrast every time you fight a mimic? Like every time I get into a fight with a mimic, somehow everything gets darker and results in mimics blending into literally any surface. Is that a game mechanic or an unfortunate visual effect or what? I cannot see what I'm fighting. EDIT: Also jesus loving christ, the "objective updated" sound isn't supposed to startle the player more often that god drat enemies. Why is it so freaking loud and sudden?

There's a status condition thing in the game, one of which is fear and countered with booze. I suspect the weird graphical thing around mimics is that condition.

Hm, so far this game seems to be really good. Basically it's the true System Shock spiritual sequel that Bioshock pretended to be, as far as I can tell

First review is out, or at least the only one I can find. No idea how reputable this publication is but they gave it a 9/10.

Just got the Research-Camera-except-it-has-a-silly-name and yeah, this game is alright. It's not as good as system shock 1-2 or bioshock 1-2, but it's a acceptable knock-off imitator with a story that goes in fits and starts. Edit: With the worst hacking minigame ever. Forgot that part. Jesus I hate this hacking minigame. Merrill Grinch fucked around with this message at 22:32 on May 4, 2017 |

I went into this completely blind and I love it. Literally the only thing I knew was that it had mimics, not more. Day 2 was a nice surprise! And the gloo gun owns!

Considering they never sent out review copies, they have either got a broken street dated version or just made a review based off of the demo and pre release footage. I'd guess the latter based off of the content of the review as there is nothing of substance there, just to be "the first" for page impressions.

There's a Nerf Crossbow in this game. Game is good. It does zero damage, but you can use it to hit buttons and stuff, and the ammo can be recovered.

How is the combat? I'm still worried about fighting squiggly headcrabs. I'd rather plant my wrench into a humanoid skull. Being a System Shock / Bioshock - like, I'm not expecting anything great, but I don't want it to feel annoying either.

I'd say combat is functional. About on par for games of this sort. Whatever control issues people were having they don't appear to be present for kb/mouse.

The combat was extra good until the point where you get an actual gun. I accidentally took the longest possible route to the Pistol and had to fight a whole bunch of Phantoms using nothing but the wrech, gloo gun and tazer and it was pretty loving great. There are a whole bunch of environmental hazards you can exploit, especially with the gloo gun which lets you make them stay put while you're setting up some exploding canisters or rupturing toxic pipes.

I've been playing it for a while now, just got the research camera, overall it's very good. It feels like what Bioshock should have been, and on higher difficulties it's hard as hell and you actually have to play smart instead of just facetanking everything.

Just found out Morgan is from Austin, Texas. Starting to become a trend [with main characters] I've notice what with a lot of software developers moving there recently.
