This game looks pretty fun though its launch has been a little less than great. For one there's no FOV slider, so people with ultra widescreen monitors have been left feeling a bit queasy.

Also there's the complete lack of ray tracing, which was a big deal in the marketing, for PC at least:

Anyway, it looks like Sovietshock the game is doing pretty well otherwise. I'm going to wait until the price goes down and I've played through a few more games in my library before getting it.

Streamed the first 2.5h on FPEvents twitch channel Tuesday night. Some good humour. Its a cross between Fallout and Bioshock IMO.

Well, I got fed up with the jank combat and installed a weapons mod to increase damage.

This game man, even on easy mode it knocks you around too much

Yeah they did say it was more difficult than Fallout in that respect.

It's just a bad time when you get swarmed. Anyway now all I have to contend with are stupid QTEs (seriously?  It's 2023!) And locks that require color vision...
