The Problem With Proteus

Simon O'Neill of VGamerz.com has quite a strong opinion of Proteus, and it's definitely not a positive one.

Did you enjoy Proteus?

I left out the part about seasonal changes and what it represents. This, while accidental, holds no impact on my thoughts of the experience. It's so shallow and vague that it's still not what would constitute actual driving force or story. This game is bare-bones at best.

Just wanted to add that for anyone who reads!

Interesting read and a very understandable opinion. A lot of these goalless games feel like overblown tech demoes.

PT is still my sentimental fave. To think it was just a proof of concept demo. Why'd I delete it

Proteus was too boring for me to handle. I did platinum Rapture though. Soma I will definitely try if it's free on PS+ one day. Read good things. Last I checked it was still a bit expensive though. Same thing kept me away from Gone Home 'til it was free on Plus. $19.99's a bit steep for walking simulators imo.

Soma is $40 currently was going to buy it tonight

I'm surprised Everyones gone to the Rapture wasnt here.

Edit: wait, it is there

Yucline3272d ago

Its right there? Sitting on number 5 :P

Rimeskeem3272d ago

I read that as Ether One XD

Firewatch. Loved that game. Will play through again soon

mogwaii3272d ago

Was a great game with a unique narrative, loved the setting and time.

Why not call it exploration simulators, walking simulator sounds like a jab at something that's boring and uninteresting, stealth games= crawling simulators ?
