Seventh Angel

ORIGINAL https://www.neonlightsmedia.com/blog/seventh-angel-review Alter.. Yes, I have to use a German word just to express my feelings with this game... God, it's a mess—a mess with potential (And definitely some quality) But simply a mess. Let’s get into it. [h1] You Start The Game For The First Time. [/h1] And what do you get greeted by? AN EMPTY SETTINGS MENU, who needs settings right? Want to change your graphics, the audio, or keybindings? Nonono, we don't do that over here. Listen, Timmy, you take your preset settings and enjoy them! [h1] LET'S MOVE PAST THAT. [/h1] "Oh well, let's move past that, I'm sure it gets better," I foolishly thought before attempting to alt+tab to quickly check the time, only to discover that I was now permanently stuck with my mouse visible in the middle of the screen when returning to the game. [h1] LET'S RESTART [/h1] Well, no worries, the infamous alt+tab has killed plenty of games before; let's restart, and ah.. for some reason the game tries to once again launch in SteamVR? (It keeps trying to do this during each launch) [h1] BREATH IN, BREATH OUT. [/h1] I haven't even started playing and as you can imagine at this point, I'…

I cannot recommend the game at this time. First of all, it is a full game now, it is not 10 minutes. I haven't been able to finish it yet, but the playtime is probably between 1-2 hours depending on how fast you play. The voice acting is pretty good, and the game looks decent, and the gameplay itself is fine. However, there are a huge amount of bugs. The game is supposedly out of early access, but there are several bugs which range from annoying to game breaking, and the version number on the loading screen literally still says Early Access. This is a game that should be considered at the level of a closed beta. It has promise, but there is a LOT of work to be done. There is a door that just straight up opens onto out of bounds, the enemies can't see you unless you get within 10 feet of them, one of the keypads to progress completely prevents you from turning until you reboot the game if you put in the code wrong... it's a mess.
