One of the best single player games I've played in many years. It was pure joy and nostalgic. ID level design + FPS combat, coupled with Bethesda world immersion, right from the get-go. The story, setting, voice acting and in-game fiction was all spot on. Killer soundtrack!

I love the fact that this game can exist in a time where everything has to be censored. It draws you in, how raw the game potrays the very darkest and ****ed up things we humans are capable of doing. You feel like a man with a mission, and the classic ID FPS combat excels yet again. Every encounter I had was enjoyable to play, even if I was on the losing end.


You got your standard HP/Armor stats, a weapon wheel with tons of modifications, dual wield and alt-fire modes. Good variance in difficulty settings and tons of collectibles. There's even a mechanic to ensure you can play the game atleast twice, and get something else out of it.

Getting 100% and all achievements is also bearable, I managed to do it in around 36h, and it wasen't tedious at all.

10/10

Natural Selection 2 hit a draught in the gaming industry, the market was overflooded with yearly titles and streamlined content. Along came a stand alone sequel to one of the greatest mods to Half-Life 1.

It launched with an editor. This was a HUGE deal at the time. You didn't have the option of the free UE4 Engine, and all of the major titles on the market were booming the DLC deal.

Player retention hasn't been good in Natural Selection 2, but the game deserve so much more play than it does. One of the reasons is that it's an old school titel, with roots in the mindset of the hl1 times. Getting good as either marine or alien takes time and practice, also a fair bit of knowledge, and on top of that you have the commander aspect which is basicly an RTS game with real players (some may act like AI's).

Not many players has the patience of old times, where people would defrag in a mod for Quake3, for weeks, only to outrick their opponents movement wise the in their matches.

TLDR:

- Getting gud is hard. (like in the old days)
- The game is awesome and have one of the best communities of all time, who are all happy to help / teach new players.
- Active forum / steam community.
- All it really needs is more players.

10/10

Kind of a love and hate relationship with this game..

I paid nearly 100$ for the game + season pass on release, and after half a year of playing a poor port, they discontinued pc support entirely. We didn't get the new net code or the characters from kombat pack 2.

Another half year has passed, and I decided to buy kombat pack 2 this winter sale, I can now finally play the game as it was meant to be. The fact that it has cost me 100+ dollars though, and it took them over a year, to finally deliver a final playable product on PC, is certainly something to bear in mind with future releases coming from this developer.

The game in its current state is quite good. Many characters, combos feel great, somewhat balanced and it's possible to find matches. Fatality's and X-ray moves all look and play great. Brutalities are fluid. Get this game if you like Mortal Kombat or a good fighter, hook up a controller and have a rumble.

Get the game on sales, they don't really deserve to milk people more with this product.
