Aegis Descent

A good effort, but falls short in my opinion. I dislike how you can't really fly, just only hover - and it's dependent on a resource which feels critical for boss fights. The voice acting and music is awful, but you can look past it. Gameplay has great foundations but it's brought down by the flaws.

Before even going into reviewing the gameplay I have to remark on that this game crashes a lot. I have basically been unable to finish the game since it always crashes before bosses. I have 8 hours playtime, and I have experienced atleast 6 crashes, and since all progression is lost when it crashes it is impossible to finish the game. And moving on to the gameplay I have to say that this game sadly is a big disappointment. The gameplay is way to boring, way to grindy and you don't feel like you are progressing at all. Every arena is just about running around looking on the walls to find every objective, it's not really about combat.

30 years ago https://store.steampowered.com/app/273570/Descent/ did a better job at everything this game has - level design, enemy AI, movement, weapons, story. Run it with [url=https://www.dxx-rebirth.com/]DXX-Rebirth[/url] source port today to see for yourself.

Loved it. I did get it for free, due to me being friends with somebody apart of the development. It's a great game, pretty grindy, but a great game. Graphics are amazing for any pc, and the HUD is so nicely added to the game,

A really fun game marred by frequent stuttering and crashes EDIT- tried various visual settings trying to fix it which didnt work, saw people saying to update your graphics drivers and rolled my eyes like most people do only to find out my graphics driver WAS a few months out of date and updating it FIXED ALL CRASHES AND STUTTERING! Egg on my face, review is now positive.
