The game is good as always, but you can't do without reservations. The publisher has done a lot of work on all fronts. I am absolutely dissatisfied with the fact that the publishing company managed to cut out the content (Corny Sounds has only recordings of replicas of the plot "Voiceovers" and nothing more. Among other things, I was annoyed by the broken Intro of the game itself, where the hell did they decide to spoilerize the entire gameplay? Among other things, plot films without sound are a solid slide show (I got angry after what I saw). Fortunately for the publisher, I was the owner of the disk version as soon as it was released in 2008, from where I downloaded all the necessary content and replaced the Intro. Dear users. If the game seemed boring or cropped to you, check the game files, maybe censorship played its part and you tried out a castrated masterpiece. (P.S. Before starting the game, check the game files in Sounds for full immersion and, if not, finish the Cut base. I also recommend replacing everything in Movies with original content.) The only thanks to the developer - it is lined with modern hardware and this is the only plus. The game is divine, I know how old it is. Everything else is publisher's stuff. ======================================================================= Игра как всегда хороша, но без оговорок не обойтись. Издатель капитально по всем фронтам наделал кучи. Я абсолютно недоволен тем, что компания-издатель умудрилась вырезать контент (Банально Sounds имеет лишь записи реплик сюжетных "Voiceovers" и ничего более. Помимо прочего меня вывело из себя сломанный Интро самой игры, где на кой то черт решили заспойлерить весь геймплей? Помимо прочего сюжетные фильмы без звука - сплошное слайд шоу (Я пришелся в гнев после увиденного). На счастье издателя, я был владельцем дисковой версии, как только она вышла в 2008 году, откуда перекачал весь необходимый контент и заменил Интро. Уважаемые пользователи. Если игра вам показалась скучной или обрезанной - проверьте файлы игры, быть может цензура сыграла свое и вы опробовали кастрированный шедевр. (P.S. Перед началом игры для полного погружения проверьте файлы игры в Sounds и при отсутсвии докачатейте Вырезанную основу. Так же рекомендую заменить в Movies все на оригинальный контент.) Единственное спасибо разработчику - подбито под современное железо и это Единственный плюс. Игра божественна, знаю как олд. Все остальное косяки издателя. P.S. Прошел целиком на максимальной сложности - мне понравилось. (секреты в том числе) Концовки работают исправно.

Movement is good and combos are amazing. Overall good combat. Graphics are good for a 2009 game.

Solid bit of fun but it is certainly rough around the edges. The shooting is good and gets better. It is fun to kill enemies which is what matters. Once you get past the feeling of "What the fuck is going on" (which fades as the story starts coming together) it becomes rather enjoyable. The combo system is an interesting addition but the kill-voice for combo powers does seem odd in the first half but both aspects more interesting as you play. Solid amount of secret sections which is appreciated, with said secrets providing buffs that make themselves felt powerfully later on. The premise of a WW1 Zombie shooter is definitely unique and it steps it more as the story progress, perhaps into the absurd but I found it likeable. There's quite a bit of cheesy humor in the first half but the game does try to show the horrors of war and I feel like the balancing act actually works and most of the dialogue encounters do feel good. Though there appears to have been some sort of language barrier and if you pay attention, some dialogue does feel translated to an extent but its still solidly in the "good to good enough" range. The voice acting is also good, not excellent but good. The music is lacking in my opinion. The first half feels a lot like CoD zombies but does add its own twist of bizarre...everything. Having completed the game, I do want to add on and say that the second half steps up the game quite a lot, I don't want to spoil it but the gameplay gets way better and the story starts pulling itself together in a way that actually gives it a compelling narrative which was quite the surprise. The ending is pretty good, I'd say very good actually, though the last levels can be tiring due to too many enemies, it fits the narrative of it however and makes getting past the challenges posed better. The many boss fights across the levels get a bit samey but do provide a challenge and the final boss succeeds in giving of a feeling of desperation as you start running out of things to throw at it before the end. Something should also be said about the overall experience, I had no crashes, performance was stable even on a modern machine without needing any outside fixes, graphics hold up pretty well, the level design is also solid and remains so across the experience. The ability to save whenever (outside of cinematics) is also very appreciated, so is being able to load autosaves from previous levels at any time. I'm genuinely pleasantly surprised by the game in general. Overall, I would give it a solid 7.5 out of 10. Solid gameplay, good amount of content for a shooter, a story that starts to get better the more you play and a cheap price make it worth a try.

Finally beat it. Well I don't even know where to begin with this manifestation of extreme euro jank. Maybe watch some youtube videos of what it's all about? I enjoyed quite a bit of it but it dragged on and on. I quit playing it about two years ago, little did I know I was right at the end with the end boss very near. Sure you could do worse. Lets get some things straight your character likes to yap constantly Duke 3d, Blood, Serious Sam line type stuff, it's pretty cheesy but fun, annoying too. I'd say it's worth playing. Embrace the jank. Fun trashy FPS game. In all honesty I wish there was more stuff like this out there but there isn't. It happens to have just the right amount of artistry and trash thrown into it to actually be a cult classic. Did Bruce Campbell commission this?

I have no idea whether I like this game or not. I have played this for 2 hours straight - for any other game, that would be more than enough time to decide whether or not the thing you just bought was worth your hard-earned money. For Necrovision, that is a completely different case. I was immediately alerted to the fact that this game uses the Painkiller engine - a decision I found odd for a game with this theme in particular, but I didn't pay too much attention to it. 30 minutes later I realize that I should have. The second level in the game (SECOND LEVEL!) immediately changes the tone from the horrors and trials of war to something quite similar to the original Painkiller: hordes of brainless enemies rushing at you, mini boss fights in-between these skirmishes... stunning, to say the least. It also warped and distorted the original vision of an FPS set in WW1: sure, it kept that general atmosphere, but it added new enemies & themes that are complete fiction. The description says nearly nothing about the undead rising from their muddy graves, hordes of hellhounds trying to kill you, and ginormous dragons destroying 3 planes in a row. Not to mention the unreasonable amount of cutscenes and setpieces ocurring in one level: each one of them lasts 30-40 mins or so, but they feel like an hour each from the ridiculous amount of stuff crammed inbetween them. Weapons feel okay (so far) - they're the only thing that fit in with the WW1 theme so far. Problem is they deal nearly no damage, except for heavier weapons such as the MG 08. You'll have to end up stabbing and poking your enemies if you want to get through the level in a reasonable amount of time. I will not even mention the combo system - such an idea in a WW1 game is already perplexing, and its actual implementation in this game in particular is amusing, astonishing and confusing. I see why this has a 60 in Metacritic, neither the players nor critics could figure out this game. It is simply too confusing for the average gamer. Do I recommend this game? Absolutely. Even though I do not know my current opinion on this game, I would suggest players with more tough & organized minds try to figure out what this game is trying to be, as I have failed in accomplishing such a task. Well worth the 8 dollars I paid for.
