It's a fairly big game, and there's a fair number of things that repeat themselves just to make the game seem bigger. That said; it's disciplined in it's approach. In less than eighty hours; I beat it on the second hardest difficulty (which is really the normal difficulty). For comparison's sake; I have sunk hundreds of hours in to some open world games and have not completed the story. That's just it; there's a story here. Even just fooling around is advancing the plot. There are no "radiant quests" there are no fishing mini-games. It's just the plot and game-play flows along with that, rather than adding a bunch of filler that doesn't advance the plot. Speaking of plot. The whole "people talking about everything they're doing in to a recorder" is here, but as unrealistic as it is, it works as a "trail of breadcrumbs". I did consult some information sources online for this game. I did this mostly because necessary upgrade items are scattered throughout the game and the game would have been a lot longer if I had to search every single area to find them, but if you pay attention the game does a pretty good job of telling you where to look for at least the early upgrade items. It is a bit grindy, to be sure. You will revisit areas you've already been to, defend your base against waves of enemies several times, but it does end. All in all it's a good game if you've got the time to get in to it.

Don't generally write reviews, especially on an 8 year old game, but just wanted to commend this game for doing what it does well. It's fairly simple in design, but it's challenging, creates a sense of progression as you go along and has just enough variety to keep you going. I've spent way more on games that I've put much less time in. Well worth it.

One of the most stressful games out there. It's not the monster who beat you. It's their numbers. It's not the combat that is difficult to handle. It's your nerves. It's not the resources that run out. It's the time. Yes, it's an old game. But everything in it is so atmospheric, you can't help but immerse. Libera te tutemet ex Inferis. (c)

I've been having fun. I like collecting junk and recycling it to produce new stuff. I've gotta play in little chunks with the light on though, 'cause I scare pretty easily. It's cool that I get some idea of what's hiding behind the doors by what sounds are made. I don't like the giant spiders though. I'm arachnophobic. Kinda wish that I could find some survivors or something, being alone all the time is getting to me.

My gun got too hotand I dropped it while I was surrounded by mutants and died. I accidentally used the BFG when I mean to use the shotgun and died. I didnt bring an extra O2 tank and died. I let the infection rate grow to high and they attacked my generator. I died. I love this game. Plays great on the Steam Deck.
