Topic | Is the new Indiana Jones game worth buying? |
sfcalimari 04/16/25 7:45:49 PM #28: | I was really looking forward to it but I found it really quite meh. Story is really good for this kind of game. Voice acting is great. Graphics are nice. Some characters look great but others look pretty fugly. In general the game just got kind of tedious for me. First person shooter mechanics never really gel with open-ended exploration. The melee combat system is actually quite deep for a fps type game, but that is a pretty low bar when 99% of first person melee games have the horrible "poking a broomstick at a brick wall while endlessly running backwards" style of melee combat copied off of Skyrim. Wandering around the surface maps punching nazis is fun. Doing short exploration segments where you go into a small tomb and solve a puzzle and are out in five minutes is fun. The really long segments where you stumble around in a long labyrinth are not fun, and they comprise an awful lot of the game. The worst part is that you have to go back into these areas if you want to complete some of the item hunting quests in the game, and you have to go hunting for some tiny object that the map insists is in a room three floors below where it actually is. --- "Tether even a roasted chicken." - Yamamoto Tsunetomo ...
