despite the storyline being absolutely fucking confusing e.y.e has to be one of the best games i ever played. what streum on studio did with the source engine is absolutely amazing. the combat is one of the most satisfying ive ever played in a game (and let's face it not many can get source engine combat done correctly). pure 100% unadulterated kino right here

This is the messiest, most inaccessible brick wall of a game I've ever played. Ridiculously obtuse, broken mechanics with one of the most complicated and unrefined interfaces ever. A borderline nonsensical story that definitely isn't helped by the shockingly poor translation. Barely functioning multiplayer that involves messing around with ports and IP addresses in the game console just to be able to connect to each other.

This game is a complete mess, but I played this game with two friends from start to finish...

...and we loved every second of it.

This is possibly the king of obscure games. That's not because it’s the most obscure game ever made, but because its completely bizarre presentation encapsulates what’s great about niche titles. To oversimplify it, it’s essentially a total conversion mod of Half Life 2 that's mixed with Warhammer 40K fan fiction. Being built off of Half Life 2 can make it feel cheap, but leveraging the Source engine’s physics to emphasize the power of your cyber-augmented character was a smart decision. You slowly become more and more hilariously overpowered with each new ability, eventually being able to jump over buildings and sprint as fast as a car, so having weight and impact was critical to making progress rewarding. If you can stay interested in the game long enough to unlock those abilities, you’ll definitely have a fun time. However, the game is so dark and so narratively confusing that I think most people will drop out before it gets the chance to shine. Playing it co-op certainly helps, but this has its own issues with the way mission progress is saved only to the host. Your character progress is saved regardless, but repeatedly losing direct progression is demoralizing. So, the highs of maxing out your abilities are fairly equally matched with the lows of losing progress and parts that drag. If your desire to play as a godlike space marine is strong enough to withstand even the clunkiest level design though, you should give this game a try, because there isn't any other game out there that does it quite as well.


It's good but I keep fucking up my characters

Perfect game for the digital epoch, mimics the hyper-acceleration of thought and liquid flow of information that the human race is currently experiencing.

too much, many thoughts, head full

DON'T ASK QUESTIONS!! JUST FOLLOW ORDERS!!

It's neat and silly, but inaccessible to an absurd degree. I don't have the patience to learn all these menus to play a faster than average source fps


It's memorable for sure but it'll take some time to process how I actually feel about it. Nonetheless, the visuals, sounds and gameplay were all very good, dialogue and world are positively weird, and the story is interesting, if barely understandable. As for actual bad stuff, the lack of proper objective log made some missions needlessly obtuse and some of the later missions were too large for their own good especially when going for the true ending.

the best kind of jank. the kind of jank you beat three times to get the secret ending.

janky kino but kino nonetheless

i despised every second playing this game 'til i realize it has become one of my all time favorites

Glorious source jank. Mediocre component parts come together to create an unforgettable experience.

really don't know what you guys are talking about here. also might just be my pc but it runs like shit
