Another masterpiece DLC for the F.E.A.R. series.
F.E.A.R. is an exceptionally good game in every possible way. It got a great story line, horror elements, a perfect AI, intense action and beautiful graphics and sound, even to this day. The same goes for this DLC: Extraction Point.
Back in 2008, when I first bought the first game, I did not know what to expect. I thought it would be a horror game in which you need to run constantly from some girl. I was half right. When I first played it, I immediately got a sense of dread and discomfort and when the first horror elements came to play, I pooped my pants. I could not play this game without someone sitting next to me. It was just to damn scary, and for that it will always have my deepest respect.
The story is powerful and interesting, I am not going to spoil it, this is something you need to experience for yourself. It has kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the whole game and made an impression on me that lasts forever. The story of F.E.A.R.: Extraction Point goes further where the original F.E.A.R. game left off and it fits perfectly. In my opinion, I think this sequel is even better.
The graphics in F.E.A.R.: Extraction point are the same as the original game and still beautiful. The same goes for the sound, and like I said in my F.E.A.R. review, it is still perfect.
F.E.A.R. has some of the best AI I have ever seen in a video game, even to this day. The AI is simply perfect. Enemies communicate with each other; they react to your every move and adapt their strategy on it. Also, when you encounter a squad of four enemies and obliterate three of their buddies, the fourth one panics and his accuracy and will to fight drops instantly. Comments like “We can’t stop him” gives you a feeling of power, you are in control of this fight. Enemies can lose sight of you in a battle, giving you back your edge. They are definitely are not the bullet sponges in games today.
The slow-motion feature in F.E.A.R. was also unique for its time and really helps you in your fights. If you are flanked by the smart AI Replica soldiers you use your slow motion to take back control of the situation. The only downside of this, is that the game is quite easy because of it. If you are having trouble with a certain part, just use your slow motion and everything will be fine. Especially when you upgraded its bar to the max. The same principle goes for this expansion.
Extraction point added some new weapons and enemies that enhanced the experience even more.
F.E.A.R.: Extraction point is even scarier and more f*cked up than the original game. In the whole F.E.A.R. series today, I still think this one is the most brutal and nightmarish installments. The fear factor for this one is out of control.
Extraction point also has a special place in my black heart and will always be one of the games that I can play anytime, anywhere. The replay value is high for me. In my opinion, it is a masterpiece.
I recommend F.E.A.R. and this expansion in every way. You must have played it at least once before you grow old and senile.
