It has a top-down view in a 16-bit world that is reminiscent of such classics as tech-noir \/ cyberpunk games. The dystopian and darkness of a cyberpunk world with an intriguing story awaits you.<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe game-play is an action-based stealth game primarily, but you can take the all-out rampage mode if you prefer. These two play-styles suit me as I do get bored with playing a full stealth game. I like the options. You can navigate the levels without killing an enemy or using your weapon, melee attack or special powers. Each character has abilities that they can upgrade after each level, the attributes can be levelled up to suit your play-style. The upgrading mechanism is simple and straightforward focused on the game-play and story. The controls are simple and are pretty much pick and play. Handy tutorials walk you through all you need to know. The level design is superb, they are well thought out and allow you to play as you see fit. <\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\nThe pixel art look and feel are superb. The designers have used the pixel art to great effect within each level and the backgrounds. Dark cyberpunk colours are present throughout. Character animations are detailed and fit the cyberpunk theme well. The soundtrack and sound effects add to the whole cyberpunk and dystopian feel. <\/span>\r\n\r\nYour actions in the game will have repercussions for the story and the outcome. The storyline and your involvement provide a sense of immersion in the game. The story is dark, mysterious and fills the world with a sense of doom. It has a rich set of characters and enough details are provided but some ambiguity. <\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\nDisjunction is a fun and enjoyable stealth RPG-action game. The cyberpunk theme and story fit together. The narrative of the story ties all of the actions and the levels you play through. The game-play is simple but addictive. I like the ability to play the game as you want to power up your character as you see fit. <\/span>\r\n\r\nOverall:<\/strong> 9\/10<\/span>","post_title":"Disjunction Review","post_excerpt":"Stealth-based RPG","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"disjunction-review","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-09-04 15:58:06","post_modified_gmt":"2023-09-04 14:58:06","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/comicbuzz.com\/?p=205944","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":205829,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2021-01-04 17:09:51","post_date_gmt":"2021-01-04 17:09:51","post_content":"

Observer: System Redux is a psychological horror thriller set in a futuristic cyberpunk world. You play the role of Daniel Lazarski (Rutger Hauer) an observer detective. You investigate an anonymous call and you follow this journey through this dystopian world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The first thing is the striking visuals mixed with the mixture of cyberpunk elements, modified humans and a sense of unease of your surroundings. It's a first-person detective game where you have to get to the bottom of a series of strange events. As a neural detective, the key elements involve investigating crime scenes using your additional powers (human mods). There is one critical ability which is the ability to hack the minds of humans. Observer draws on this gameplay mechanic to help further the investigation. It's also used for dramatic effect to provide further tension, suspense and horror to the game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

The voice acting is superb, the interactions with NPCs is fantastic, there is an amazing amount of detail. Corridors and hallways are dimly lit, it's a dark world with neon lights that stand out. The artwork, levels and the whole game combines all the aspects superbly. The game is linear but there is a wonderful build-up of the atmosphere, tension and dread throughout. The voice acting and characters you meet make each interaction noteworthy and interesting. It all plays into this fantastic horror game. The tone, music, and effects all add to the air of uncertainty too.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

I played on the Xbox Series X, this version has updated graphics (textures, models and effects), the graphics look superb and provides a much-needed update for next-gen consoles. PS 5 and Xbox Series X support 4K at 60 fps, this is with no ray tracing.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

Characters, details, voice acting and cinematics add a superb sense of dread, horror and an uneasy sense to the whole game. This game has a tense and thrilling atmosphere that underpins the whole game. It's eerie, moody and full of dread. The game gets the mix of cinematics and cyberpunk elements right. All the elements work amazingly well together.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Overall:<\/strong> 8\/10<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
