The beginning is not very appealing (an old archaelogist is lost in a dark geometric world), but knowing ASA I didn't give up and I'm glad now. This game is free but very well done, with many animation cutscenes and a nice scifi story. Some puzzles are really hard so I used the walkthrough on the 3rd and last puzzles and could finish the rest of the game on my own, for a total of almost 3 hours. Very nice overall! Gameplay reminded me of Myst III (360 rotations), brought back great memories. Hope to see more like this from the same creators.
Hunt Down The Source Engine!!!
Wonferful free game, short but so incredible well done ! Very nice graphics and challenging puzzles for a quality musical atmospheric mystlike. Highly recommended !
1/1000
This is a scam
Nice and smooth.
Mediocre.
After playing the final two levels of the game, which must have been the most frustrating gaming experiences I've had in my life, I can sadly give a real quick summary here:
'E.Y.E: Divine Cybermance' tries to do a lot of cool things but fails to execute them well. 'Clumsy' would be a good one-word description. The game- and level design are pretty bad and seem to be a result of the game being developed by a very inexperienced team(?) that was too ambitious and had too little resources.
On to some more details...
First of all, despite this being only a 5/10 rating, I want to say that I really wanted to like this game and I take no pleasure in stating that the hard work of someone else isn't that great. It's obvious that the developers really tried to make something special here. In fact, I have been closely following this game during its development because I love cyberpunk settings. So far I have only played the game in solo mode, so no co-op or PvP.
E.Y.E: Divine Cybermancy has a lot of cool concepts and ideas. The possibility of different playstyles, a variety of weapon types, character development through skillpoints and cyberimplant upgrades, a mental health-, karma- and health condition system (for example bleeding that has to be tended to), a research tree, dialogues with NPCs, hacking and a story involving multiple factions. In short, it's a cyberpunk FPS/RPG that has enough systems to make it feel like a game with a lot of depth and complexity.
Unfortunately most of these things are implemented in such a way that they feel confusing, opaque, bothersome or in the case of NPC dialogues an illusion of choice. In my opinion most of those things only distract from the fun and immersion. For example the hacking UI is awkward and it is difficult to see what is going on, especially due to the layout of the elements. Because of this, my strategy to winning these hacking minigames is to take a good look at the initial stats of my character and the system to hack, think of a sequence of actions that I need to perform to win the minigame and stick to that plan without looking at the real-time statuses of me or the opponent. While the minigame is supposed to be real-time and dynamic, the only way for me to not get frustrated is to reduce the minigame to a static sequence of steps to perform repeatedly.
The world- and level design also aren't that great. Levels are large, but dark and empty, and there are a lot of dead ends that require the player to backtrack long and boring paths. For me it has been unclear which path to take to reach an objective marker, and most of the time I picked the wrong path first. The headquarters, which is the player's central HUB area, makes this particularly visible. In that area everything is so far apart that I have to consider whether or not I really want to go check if I have enough money to buy a new weapon or implant, and spend some mind-numbing time in this large, confusing and featureless environment.
It's also painfully obvious that the developers are not native speakers of English. Besides the grammar being a bit off in a lot of cases, there seem to be a few occasions at which words are chosen that don't make sense in their context. The text in dialogues is generally cringy, there is a lot of swearing, bad mouthing and edgy behaviour by both NPCs and the player character. Most of it is accompanied by an abundance of exclamation marks, which for some reason is something that for me personally can quickly ruin immersion. It is possible that these issues with the textual content could be the reason why I don't really have any idea what's going on with the story, or perhaps the story is just unclear and confusing on purpose, since the player character starts the game with amnesia.
I would only recommend this game to people that are very eager to play a game with cyberpunk setting and have low expectations of the game. The FPS part, when disregarding the RPG systems, can feel quite satisfying at times, but for me it is just not enough to make this game actually fun. I only continued playing just to be able to add the game to my 'completed campaign' list.
Good
This is a very great game. It actually does provide a challenge. I can't wait for part 2!
Awesome game. Brings back the old edutainment game feel from the 90's while including an awesome horror aspect into it.
Long tutorial, a lot of things not covered after you finish the tutorial.
Though, pretty easy to play and quite nice if you are into this kind of game.
I played the game for a few hours with a friend and it if pretty fun and time killing but after a while it becomes quite repetitive. Depsite this fact, the game is bloody nice.
Best Game !
To me it feels like the Portal for VR with solid mechanics and a lot more jump and run elements. An overall good game with a lot of promising mechanics and features, since it is still in Early Access on Steam!
I would definitely recommend trying it out!
i am **** :D
this game is goooooooooooooooooooood
It's really ******* fun. And scary.
Very Spoop
What an incredible gem! The game has the perfect mix of high-class gore (with a little classy humour on top) and heartfelt poignancy. The graphics are really charming, the soundtrack is superb, and the puzzle-like gameplay is different than pretty much everything else out there (the nearest setup I can think of is "The Last Express", but the nature of the puzzles is completely different). Memorable!
In fact, the problem is that the developer helps his friends in the game and uses admin powers against players he does not like. This can be as in balance changes a second before the battle, even in punishment ban.
