What is the verdict on this one? Gives me Deadspace vibes.

lonewolf10912d ago

It does but you have 2 of the main Dead Space devs on this title. Certainly looks good.

myfathersbastard912d ago

The original creator of deadspace is the lead on this one. He didn’t have the rights for deadspace so he made his own spiritual successor.

Sonic1881912d ago

You're going to have to rely on a lot of melee on this one

Vengeance1138912d ago

One of the biggest game launches of the year.

Ramboforlife912d ago

Yup, probably the only game I've been looking forward to this year, besides Elden Ring.

Tex4242912d ago

Between this and Deadspace in Jan it's looking really good. Can't wait.

anast912d ago

Is it going to have MTs and season passes? What the monetization scheme going to be like?

Eh. Finally played Callisto Protocol via Gamepass. It was fine, but didn't feel like playing more than a couple hours in. I'll still grab it for free though. Have yet to purchase anything from the EPIC store, but still have over 20 games in my library.

Jingsing272d ago

Maybe it would be smarter to just play the free stuff on Epic rather than pay for a Microsoft rental service that gets removed from your library.

darthv72273d ago

Well thanks for that one Epic. Happy to add CP to the library.

blackblades272d ago

I have a lot in my library just need a handheld pc.

N4GTG272d ago

I have over 450 games in my Epic library and haven't purchased anything from Epic. Ever.

phatak272d ago (Edited 272d ago )

honestly even tho I still prefer steam, over the last 4 years I always collected the weekly epic games, and now suddenly when you look at your library one day you realize you picked up around 400 free games a good portion of which are AAA, big win, and with gog, amazon prime, crazy powerful gpu's like 4090, windows 11 being way better than the dark days of windows 8 there has never been a better time to be a pc gamer, this is simply the best time for pc gaming fhat I can remember.

blackblades272d ago

Basically epic for the free games, steam for the deals and both for the free of charge online play amongst other things.

What is everyone's guess on the Next Xbox I'd like to know.
I really think it'll be a PC Console that's open to all Game Stores. I think there will be more than one version aswell including a high end expensive one.
It looks like it's the only way out for Microsoft but an interesting one too..

Game had so many problems - bad frame-rate was #1 problem

BeRich233287d ago

I played it a year later after release on series x and there wasn't any problems, although that is a problem lol

ROCKY28287d ago

cool - I will redownload and give the game another chance :)
thx

Inverno287d ago

All too common for games to have ridiculously long dev cycles and have so much cut. Also too common for newer IPs to have their dev cycle cut short and be forced out before they're anywhere near a complete state. We're playing incomplete games either way cept some get good scores others are thrown to the wolves. 70 dollar standard be doin fine work this gen.

DivineHand125287d ago

I blame this issue on poor project management and directors.

Inverno286d ago

There's that, but these companies know they can hook people with early previews. Show proof of concept with a nice cinematic CG trailer and then show some gameplay with pretty graphics and then push out an incomplete product. Your modern consumer is overprotective about products they know nothing about, they will buy things without much thought.

anast286d ago

It's 100% a management issue from the top-down.

Green-Smurf287d ago

So much can be added but it was decent. Needs a sequel

mastershredder287d ago (Edited 287d ago )

Game was a already-done-before regurgitated mess. More content was not going to save it. Stepped off on the wrong foot altogether. Even free, it goes unplayed.

DivineHand125287d ago

There are points in the game that felt like it was drawn out so if content was cut then it was probably for the better.

The Callisto Protocol 2 Plans Discussed by Director; Mentions Cut Enemies, How They Wanted More Time

The Callsto Protocol 2 plans shared by Glen Schofield, as he also confirms they had to cut enemies and bosses in the first game.

XiNatsuDragnel288d ago

Callisto protocol 2 should use those cut features

excaliburps288d ago

We're never seeing a sequel unless Krafton greenlights it which I highly doubt.

-Foxtrot288d ago

Why? The DLC pretty much wrapped everything up and was awful.

Especially what they did to Jacob over making a sequel which could have gave him better character development.

Toecutter00288d ago (Edited 288d ago )

Callisto Protocol is an extremely underrated game (after the updates). Krafton, however, made a mistake by looking to overmonetize a single player game by cutting out content and selling it as dlc. Paying for extra death animations was scummy. And you can't get away with that crap with a new IP. Save it the sequel or, better yet, don't do it at all. Survival horror is a crowded market.

thesoftware730288d ago

I agree, I played and enjoyed the game very much.

Paying for death animations was a ridiculous proposition from the start, and was destined to fail.

Azfargh287d ago

I still play from time to time, kept installed on my pc and even some mods (dlss mod and some INI config optimizations) improved even more the experience. It is still an fun experience and the graphics and animations helps me want to go back even more... Yeah, paying for death animations: what they were thinking?

amazing horror game and unbelievable graphics, really happy that a sequel is being discussed.
