Game review

Belive me, I played this game back in 2005, when it was still in alpha stage. Believe it or not, it is still after 8 years since I last played it.

Even after 8 years, it lacks content, the gameplay is so confusing, and the leveling up is confusing that you have to ask some people how to level up, and after 8 years, I don't care because I refuse to play this game.

The NPC system is rather... Uh how should I say it, annoying and I have to talk to NPCs with "Say... Blah". It's much easier in RPGs to have a list of words to say like in the Bioware games.

The game is glitchy and buggy as well, and every update I come to see, I just want some content, but all I see is fixes in the game.

The story is well... Unique but odd. Like example, some goddess turns into a man after her godly friend created there own race... Really? The setting is decent, taking place in a stalactite, that's pretty good enough for me since that's unique.

Heck, dying is the most irritating thing ever, you're taken into this level where you have to go through it without dying, and if you die again, you gotta start the level over. Sometimes, I want to go down the stairs or in that temple if I want to enter it's labyrinth, I go down to high and die, then I have to go to the death level. Sorry, if you're not a fan of losing like me, this is not the game for you.

Roleplay... I roleplay in my spare times, I've been in some communities that ended up being terrible. But god, I don't want to roleplay in a game, but if you were a kid like me at the time when I played this in 2005 (13, to be exact.) Would you wanna roleplay in a game? No, you just install the game and play it.

Overall, as a avid player of MMOs, this is just... Ugh. It's nothing but a joke, I don't care if it's completely free or it's some hobby game. I want the lodes of content you haven't brought since the past 8 years I've been on and off playing it.

A great game that brings back to the memory of my childhood, from playing fast paced FPSes like Unreal and the tournament games, Quake 1, 2, and 3, Marathon, DOOM, and many other FPS from the 90s to early 2000s.

This game has a lot potential, from the run and gun gameplay that the games I mentioned had to the modding and creating maps to build a bigger community. The developers and community are very nice people as well, giving constructive feedback on your maps and helping you to hone your skills on mapping.

Calling it a DOOM clone, huh? I'd say, it's got the feel of DOOM, but some things are compared to DOOM and compared to other clasic FPSes, the character is at blistering speeds like the Doomguy, It's a bit like Duke Nukem in terms of story, but the reason is actually different and I will get into that the next paragraph. Scoring and lives in the game were in Wolfenstein 3D. The Pulsar is somewhat unique to the game, for me at least, despite being it like the plasma gun from DOOM, but you must shoot upwards for a greater distance. Yes, I know all this because I've played all these games throughout my gaming life. So let's say it's a game mixed together with many of the 90s FPS games taken into the modern 3D world.

The story is a... Well, expecting from a FPS, a alien invasion. But those are cool, no bad sayings. They do have a reason on invading Earth, they want the machine that now keeps humanity alive. Kind of like a life support machine since by that timeline of the game, since before the events, the machine made Earth a peaceful planet.

This game is so great that I suggest you guys get it!
