AMID EVIL

Before anyone reads this, yes I played the entire campaign and will be playing the DLC. “oh then you must have enjoyed it so why the negative review?!” I come from a time when the amount of time spent in a game did not mean that you were having a good time, that has always been a strange false equivalency. A game can be very short but still be high in quality and enjoyment. I wanted to give this “boomer shooter” a fair shake so that anyone, including any devs reading this, won’t try to argue “oh you just didn’t play the whole game, you gave up so you’re opinion is rendered void just because I said so. About the one good thing about the base game and the DLC has to be the OST, but that's more due to Andrew's fantastic work. Genuinely bad, does not hold a candle to Dusk in any way shape or form, New Blood tried far FAR too hard to make the game as "retro obnoxious" as humanly possible while making sure to cut out all of the fun. More like a Pain Killer clone than a Heretic/Hexen clone or homage, if you will. Unlike how Dusk was a Blood/Quake like homage which did it correctly. For the first 2 or 3 zones, it was fun, each zone was different and varied while not being too obno…

game to faall asleep to

Amid Evil is yet another New Blood FPS and while I think it's definitely the weakest of the trilogy, it's still a pretty fun boomer shoot. You go through various fantasy worlds to slay their champions who've gone to the dark side (turned evil) to restore the lands or something idk. The game is certainly fun but has drawbacks, some of the enemies are pretty annoying, the weapons aren't stellar tbh, some of the levels don't do too much. For positives, the game looks ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beautiful, no visual complaints at all, some of the levels can be incredibly unique and the bosses might be some of the best bosses in the FPS trilogy. The DLC is also pretty good and a big step up from the base game, absolutely recommended if you want more. Overall, Amid Evil doesn't do absolutely tons that you can't get in other shooters, but is still a pretty fun simple shooter, I will also admit I haven't sunk quite as much a biblical number of hours into the game as the other games in the trilogy, so I can't speak with too much authority.

Your starting weapon is a sentient axe that hates evil and magnetically pulls anything evil towards it to chop into pieces. Your rocket launcher fires planets pulled randomly from space. 10/10.

Fun boomer shooter.
