What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

First Session is heavily criticized by players as a controversial release that appears to be primarily an advertisement for an unreleased product, with the developer attempting to charge money for access and locking achievements behind DLC, which players find unacceptable. While some reviewers praise its cyberpunk atmosphere, storytelling, and immersive design, others report significant technical issues including game-breaking collision bugs that force complete restarts.

"First Session" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Wild Dose". Wild Dose is not even finished... an apparently abandoned attempt at making a drug dealer/cyberpunk themed Unity asset flip. But wait, there's more... and it gets so much worse. The developer apparently decided to blank the game manifest and replace it with a requirement that you pay a whopping $5 USD to download the full advertisement. With achievements locked behind the DLC. Yeah... that's right... they tried to scam gamers into paying cash money just to play through a short advertisement for an unreleased Unity asset flip. What an apalling joke... this kind of behaviour from developers, even if they roll it back, it utterly unacceptable. On the topic of this being a (now weirdly paid) advertisement... It's important to understand there's a formal process to create a demo/page for a game which hasn't been followed here: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/demos While it might seem like an inocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful. This advertisement is taking up marketing space and visibi…

Игра 'First Session' — это глоток свежего воздуха в жанре, который, казалось бы, исчерпал себя. С первых минут погружаешься в атмосферу загадки и неизведанного, а интригующий сюжет заставляет забыть обо всем на свете. Разработчики проделали колоссальную работу над деталями: от проработанного мира до продуманных персонажей, каждый из которых обладает своей уникальной историей и мотивацией. Геймплей предлагает интересное сочетание исследования, решения головоломок и динамичных сражений, не давая заскучать ни на секунду. Визуальная составляющая на высоте, а саундтрек лишь усиливает эффект полного погружения. Несмотря на некоторые мелкие недочеты, которые, впрочем, легко прощаются, 'First Session' — это настоящий шедевр, который стоит опробовать каждому ценителю качественных игр.

I don't know why I waited so long to play it and leave a review, but I took advantage of the latest update to enjoy this glitchy cyberpunk adventure, and it was dope!

I keep getting stuck. First was on a tree and then on a part of a room in the space section. I do hope that this is a good game, but having to restart ALL of my progress due to a collision issue is pretty annoying.
