WTMG's Todd Eggleston: "Dated FPS mechanics, classic level and map design, horrific voice acting, synthesized music, visually good but poorly animated slow-motion cinematics; Quantum Error is either one of the worst games to drop in 2023, or it is one of the best games from 1999 receiving one of the best remasters to drop in 2023. Which is why it is all about perspective. TeamKill Media did a great job marketing Quantum Error the best they could, but it should never have been floated around as any sort of system seller or to pine for recognition from PlayStation. The bar got set too high but even I must admit that, after readjusting and seeing Quantum Error as an homage to both games and stories of a time past, this game hit a needed note with me.
Quantum Error still has the chance to become something, if the developers can take a step back and learn and grow. There is love and there is passion, you can feel it, it just outweighs the skill. So, I ask, what are you? Are you a generic asset flip or are you one of the better remasters, an homage if you will, of a never released game from the early 2000s I never had a chance to love?"
Zach from WellPlayed writes "Quantum Error is a flawed, frustrating and unfun slog that collapses under the weight of its lofty ambitions to blend multiple genres and mechanics on a limited budget and developing skillset."
NoobFeed Editor Simon Estey writes - Quantum Error is too ambitious to the detriment of basic features. It wants to be a survival horror game, a first-person shooter, and a sci-fi thriller film but doesn't pull off any of these particularly well. Its most interesting aspect is its firefighting, but this is also what it spends the least of its playtime focused on. It is incredibly impressive that it was built by such a small team, but that doesn't make it any more enjoyable to play.
Applaud the QE team for the effort...but their core loop is crap. Need playtesting gents!
By constantly bashing the Xbox, these developers turned their shitty game in a success on the PS5. PR department deserve a raise...
GB: "Quantum Error is an ambitious horror shooter but most of the experience falls flat."
It was these guys that were constantly bashing the Xbox to gain favoritism from Sony fanboys... and it paid off.
Sony fanboys fell for their PR BS. This turd is a success on the PS5. LOL
