Alienation Reviews
Alienation is all about the gameplay, and holy crap, does it play well. It does not take the game very long to throw you straight into the action, and I love really loved that aspect of the game. Alienation is without a doubt a very well-crafted and solid twin stick shooter, outstanding graphics and physics, with lots attentions to details makes this a must own game for the PlayStation 4. And even if indie games aren't your cup of tea, I truly believe if you do not play this you are missing out on a truly addictive twin stick shooter. I only have one big complaint with Alienation. With the inclusion of internet, co-op play why not also have included in local co-op? It really is a no-brainer in my opinion, but for some obscure unknown reason, it is completely missing. Which begs the question. Why?! It would have been an excellent edition to an already amazing game.
Alienation does top down shooters justice, making every mission more exciting and innovative than the last. As well all the characters are very well balanced as a whole. And for the $20 purchase, it is a great price for the amount of content that is given. Alienation can be played very casually, yet it can also be incredibly competitive and intense, I would recommend this to anyone a fan of this genre.
Alienation's plot and gameplay might lack originality, but that's soon forgotten as you get your teeth into its slick, addictive, over-the-top action. Along with gorgeous environments and absolutely spectacular pyrotechnics, the game features surprising depth thanks to its upgradable characters and loot system. It all adds up to a really enjoyable multiplayer shooter that's highly recommended.
Alienation setzt das Erfolgsrezept von Dead Nation mit einigen neuen Action-RPG Elementen und größeren Maps fort und überzeugt vor allem in Sachen Grafik und Gameplay. Die große Schwäche des Titels bleiben wie auch schon in Dead Nation die Missionsvielfalt und eine wirkliche Schwache Präsentation in Sachen Audio. Für Fans von Dead Nation gibt es aber eine klare Empfehlung und natürlich auch für alle die gerne mit ihren Freunden online auf Xeno Jagd gehen wollen.
