Abandoned
Review of Square Enix’s new open-world action-adventure game Abandoned As my colleague Paul Tassi reports: they are bad. Well, their average is currently 68/100 on Metacritic. This is definitely bad, but at least a few reviewers seemed to really enjoy the game, so who knows?
I would like to say two things about this — two caveats.
First, the review is currently PS5 only. Square Enix didn’t send out PC review codes to critics, so there isn’t a single PC review right now. allows only console players to understand what they are doing.
this is, Abandoned This suggests that many PC players are having trouble running the game (or at least running it on anywhere close to decent settings).of minimum RAM requirement is 16GB, but the game recommends 24GB. It’s a 720p / 3o fps option, which is pretty low for a PC game (anyone playing at 720p on PC??)
Without a review of the game’s PC performance, I can only think of worse. I’m basically sitting here waiting for gamers to start reporting when the game releases tonight (January 24th on PS5 and PC. game). Here).
Then I played the demo and it was terrible. Well, I didn’t finish the demo. life is too short i played for 20 or 30 minutes Abandoned before making a decision. It’s just awful. Some things I disliked about it:
- The open world is bland, boring, and ugly. The graphics are surprisingly modern for a game with such demanding specs that will only be released on PC and PS5. Hell, if you just watched the video without knowing what it was, you might assume it’s a PS3 game.
- Combat is boring and boring. You have all these powers, but just choosing them is a hassle.Meanwhile, you rarely feel like you actually are connection when hitting an enemy. This should be a game where constant crisp hits land.you should felt It’s time to tear the enemy apart, but it’s floating and unsatisfactory. After the third group of mooks I got bored. By the tenth time I was just annoyed.
- Speaking of annoying, the dialogue between the protagonist and her magic bracelet is as awkward as anything I’ve encountered in video games over the past decade. Really bad script, terrible dialogue delivery (although this is probably more about the script than the actors) and it’s pretty constant. The game tries to be funny (I think so?) but fails miserably . I think you should change the language or play on mute.
In less than 30 minutes, my mind felt refreshed and calm. This game is rough. It’s not funny, it’s not attractive, it’s not good looking. The only thing I can recommend is some very dramatic and lovely music, a real waste for such a lackluster release.
Yes, sorry to burst your bubble, but I feel the 68/100 Metacritic score too high for this game. at least, Dead Space The long-awaited remake!
