Enjoy this game. It has elements of a FPS (with the washer), a weir story that you can just ignore… and the power washing is somehow extremely satisfying. I enjoyed it on steam deck. Be prepared to highlight dirty areas a lot on the small screen.

It’s just good. Don’t read what was written 7 years ago, read the recent stuff. It’s fun, it can be easy or hard (depending on how you decide to set the settings), it has mystery, it’s fun to play, you can fly ships, there’s always something awesome being added. Just enjoy it.

Weirdly compelling. play with an auto-clicker if you want to get into it.

It's Tony Hawk, no surprises except it works great on the steam deck. Solid soundtrack, same game play, same fun time. Enjoy.

Ok, the game has a good side, but I’m currently locked in a mission and unable to advance or play any other part of the game. I’ve reported the bug, and Bethesda responds they “are aware” of it. Wait 10 days. No change.
This is literally “unplayable”. There is no game left to play. I’m locked on a planet, all of the missions are complete, there is a bug that they are aware of but no patches? Just put a button outside of the elevator! Just have the door automatically open! Just code the mission to skip “go to the elevator” and let me continue.
Don’t spend your money on it. At this point, I’d like a refund.
Updated 11/24: The update still doesn't fix the bug I'm suffering from (reported 10/9, 46 days ago, with response that they are "aware" of it). Game still can't be played. No progress made since bug. I've uninstalled and regret purchasing. Wait. Wait a long time. Make sure that the price is low before buying, and that we are many patches further in.

At 46 hours, and I can say that the game doesn't really evolve past the first couple of hours of gameplay. This game would be, at best, meh if it didn't have marvel characters, so why should it get a pass just because it has licensed IP?

Game needs constant connections to servers, or will stop all game play. This renders it unplayable.
Please note, the problems staying connected to server don’t appear to be on this side, as I am watching a streaming movie without any loss of fidelity as the game keeps telling me it’s lost its connection to the server.
Also please note that I was playing in story mode so connectivity needn’t have been game-breaking. This was developers choice.
Game should be fun, not a hassle to play. If this were in the returns window, I’d return it.
Don’t buy.

It’s GTA 5. By this point, you know exactly what you’re getting.

Strangely, I dislike the driving.

Disappointing.
Pros: Spooky atmosphere.
Some (small) choice in dialogue due to the character system/character system is clearly tied to gameplay.
Some puzzles are fun.

Cons:
Cheesy animation of characters.
lack of choice: this story is going in only one of two directions - exactly as written or you die and pick up from a save. What small choices you have are largely just which one of the heavily scripted ways are you going to use to advance the story in one singular direction. This could come off as "It's on purpose to say something about how predetermination controls all", but instead comes off as lack of choice.


If this were a $10 game, I might recommend it, but it is selling at a much higher price point. I cannot recommend buying it.

It looks good on large screens, especially when run on a newer computer. Plays well. Blighttown lighting and camera is slightly better, maybe (or maybe I just got used to it). Praise the sun!
