Atomfall

Okay first off, I need to get this off my chest: it's not "like" Fallout nor is it "like" STALKER; it's like Dying Light 2. - "The zone" has more in common with the walled off areas of DL1/2 than it does the zone from Stalker, or the world of Fallout - High quality environmental vs unimaginative character/faction/enemy designs - Protagonist has a magic key that unlocks everything every occupant of the area wants into, given to them by a glorified mcguffin holder in the intro - Skill points found in wide chests left behind by the scientists, often inside previously locked bunkers - Underground/interior sections are so poor they make you realise the core gameplay sucks when you're not in the aesthetically pleasing overworld - Environmental airborne hazards mitigated by concoctions brewed from bright blue fauna which only started growing since "the event" - Two factions that are just sort of...there - A general, all-encompassing feeling of something being missing This is one of those games I'm not excited to leave a review for, but feel compelled. I got it for like 15 bucks, which be honest; anything that looks this nice and offers this much gameplay took effort. No matt…

I've been playing *Atomfall* and, honestly, I'm quite torn about it. There is a lot to like here. The setting is unusual, the British post-apocalyptic atmosphere is excellent, and wandering around the villages and countryside investigating what has happened is genuinely interesting. The world has character, and there are plenty of strange things to discover. But the more I play, the more I feel that *Atomfall* is missing some of the systems that could have turned it from a decent game into a really great one. The biggest problem for me is **progression**. There isn't a traditional levelling system where you steadily develop your character. There isn't a proper armour system where you find increasingly powerful equipment. Loot doesn't have that satisfying RPG progression where you discover something better and think, *"Yes! This is going to make me stronger."* And that makes exploration feel less rewarding than it could be. I keep finding myself thinking about what this game **could** have been. Imagine exploring an abandoned house and finding a better weapon. Finding armour with different protection and bonuses. Discovering a rare piece of equipment that changes how you play…

I found a russian worm spy hiding underground, so I killed him. I hope he wasn't important to play the game.

was enjoying it before all the random crashing started, tried a dozen so called fixes but still crashes constantly so it's unplayable and doesn't look like it's ever going to be fixed so epic fail. seems like a cool game, if it works on your rig otherwise it's just fish in the sea

The gameplay feels very much like Metro, but with a few features I thought made it feel more enjoyable to play. The story is really interesting and I love that I was kept in the dark for most of the game. It really kept me invested in the mystery.

i like this game! so what if the controls aren't buttery smooth! Gives it that much more of a challenge! This game is actually a serious Stealth game, I've only played up to the damn and gonna start that! but running in guns a blazing is a no go, you will find your end if you do! you seriously have to use stealth in this and hide behind doors for cover and slowly take then out one by one and use melee and if all else fails use weapons, but most of the weapons I've found so far are single shot and will only take out one baddy and then pause to reload will get you surrounded in a second! so think before you act! I'm running on Medium settings because i have low specs but the game plays really well on my outdated gaming laptop!
