Compared to Red Dead Redemption this feels like a tight, focused experience rather than a sprawling one, and honestly that's exactly what I wanted at the time…

    Compared to Red Dead Redemption this feels like a tight, focused experience rather than a sprawling one, and honestly that's exactly what I wanted at the time. Anyone else prefer the smaller scale over the open world approach?

    EmileWarden

    Tight and focused just means limited, honestly. RDR gives you a world to get lost in, this gives you corridors.

    LuckyHunter

    Small scale sounds nice until you realize it means fewer choices too. RDR lets you shape how things go, this just funnels you forward.

    On refait ce débat, mais les couloirs ont autant de vide que certains mondes ouverts.

  2. Thiel1995

    Yeah I said it, this game deserves better than 379th. The GAS MASK mechanic alone deserves more respect than it gets, fogging up mid-firefight never stopped being stressful.

  3. PixelRider1988

    Underrated pick for sure. The mood alone earns its spot.

  4. ComboSamurai

    Is it the atmosphere carrying the whole experience? I feel like the shooting mechanics are kind of average on their own. Does anyone actually rank it this high for the gameplay itself or is it mostly nostalgia for the world and the tone?

    CoopRider2008

    Complètement d'accord, et franchement les tunnels ont plus de personnalité que pas mal d'open worlds qui se ressemblent tous après deux heures !

    A mí también me atrapó esa tensión constante, sobre todo de noche jugando solo, aunque después de un rato...

  5. TurboPlayer2007

    The stealth system is the real issue here. Lights and noise indicators are inconsistent enough that you never fully trust them, so you end up just avoiding stealth entirely and running gunfights instead. That undercuts half the design of the game.

    I've only put maybe fifteen hours into it total but every session felt tense in a way most shooters don't manage for me.

    fifteen hours and you call that tense, try finishing it twice like some of us did
