Defragmented

If I had just bought this game for the music, then I would have thought it was a terrific deal. This is the best album of futuristic electronic that I have ever heard. The soundtrack comes with the game, in a folder, so you can listen to it out of the game. I cannot get enough of it. That said, there is also a game, too, which is pretty cool. This twin-stick shooter works great with ubuntu linux and supports game controllers. I found it somewhat difficult, but then I realized that the difficulty settings are meant to be adjusted, for experience point rewards, so there is a lot of reasons to redo missions. The in-game story is pretty good, although the actual cut scene animations -- well, the illustrations really do not match the game theme really but they are okay - not really necessary actually - I just skipped them. All in all, I can see why there might be people who don't recommend the game play, but this is a game that you will need to have some patience. The tutorial does not explain everything, and there are a lot about upgrades that you need to figure out yourself. In the end, you might get turned off of this game, but I think it is totally worth trying for the price. I wo…

Overall I liked Defragmented, but there are some serious negatives and it's not for everyone - in particular the art and music is in a nostalgic style which I enjoyed but not everyone will appreciate. Good stuff: - The tracker-style-techno music is amazing, maybe worth the purchase price alone. I transferred many of the tracks to my phone for my gym playlist. - Level replayability is pretty good; you can choose the difficulty per-level and go back and give it a go on harder difficulties for new rewards. Getting higher rankings (i.e. finishing faster with minimal deaths) also gives more rewards. - The 3 different classes you can choose from are quite varied in play style (basic tank, speed/stealth assassin, crazy battlefield-control techno-mage... thing). - Lots of choices levelling up - each class has two skill trees which each have a powerful ultimate skill. You also get implants which boost various attributes and can be swapped out. - Weapons are varied well in the Borderlands style - apart from the different types (pistol, SMG, shotgun, laser etc) there will be some within each type with balanced stats, some which are high damage but slow firing/reload time, etc. Also like Bord…

Not going to write a lot, i jsut really didnt enjoy the game enough to continue playing it. The best thing about it i think is the soundtrack. Maybe i wasnt in the mood for it as it doesnt seem terrible. Just it was a very middle of the road kind of game. If you can get it on sale id get it and give it a shot. Maybe youll enjoy it more than i did.

Clunky camera and enemies that kill you from off screen make this a rather frustrating play. You're better off looking at Hotline Miami or Neon Chrome.

Fun game, while the levels get a bit repetitive, the challenge is still good throughout. Hunting for good weapons ever level is fun, I found using the abilities tricky, though that may just be me.

Tags: Topdown Shooter Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Too many issues. Feels Early Access Still Pros: +Overall combat, audiovisual presentation, thematic and setting as well as featureset seems promising and with solid foundations but also some glaring flaws and problems. Oustanding Issues: +You can clip through the floor or a wall and stay stuck there. Forcing you to restart mission +Unweildy character sheet and menus +Next to nothing interactable except chests and lockers +Lack of tooltip information, no xbox360 button images in ability description page of character sheet. Some confusing operations to use ui (use shoulder buttons to flip pages, I was unable to equip programs or swap weapon) +Map design is rough and disappointing with me getting stuck twice on two different playruns in the same invisible pitfall in a corner of a corridor +Camera rotation mechanic is clunky, needs to be fiddled with too often, inverts the tutorial text on occasions and the topdown view creates strange limitations on field of vision especially on a widescreen. Misc: +Had a playtest session that ran sluggishly with difficult to orient aiming but on another those …
