It is later revealed that Morozov was working as a double agent for the Mushroom Cult. Only that the bunker is located near the village of Otradnoye. But what is not known is the exact location of this place. It is known that the detachment of General Morozov went to study the mysterious pre-war bunker, Bunker 317. This time, the leadership of the organization chose its young cadet to search for and conduct an investigation. I could have gathered a companion and maybe beat the map that stopped me but I at that point its not my own 'adventure' anymore.The search expedition led by General Morozov stopped communicating with the main base of the secret organization A.T.O.M. Maybe there were some quests I missed (though i clicked through most conversation choices) but either way the game seemed to want you to play a specific way. So I went about grinding with no plot elements and that got boring fast so I quit. Found what I think was the main plot destination but I was too weak to beat it. I went without a companion which you cant do evidently if you want to beat some mid game maps.īut worst, in the end, before I quit, I ended up with no where to go. The writing does a very bad job of focusing you on the plot and task. I would avoid 2 minute encounters because I knew 30 extra seconds would be me scrolling around the map looking for npcs and exits.Īlso, the main quest can get lost.

This seems like a petty gripe but after dozens of encounters the frustration builds. Not where you expect them or where is easiest. Actually map exits are like this for all random encounters. Traders are often placed in some mysterious part of the encounter map and the map exit is

Lots of QOL problems that I don't remember in FO2. The writing is ok and though the english can read strange it doesn't ruin the game.Ĭharacter progression was good- like FO2. I got maybe over half way through the campaign.

I played offline because online was messing with my saves. Thank you for giving us this Fallout-inspired post-apocalyptic adventure!Īt 15 us D I'll recommend. No game is perfect, but I haven't felt this much satisfaction from a game since the first time I played Baldur's Gate I.ġ0/10 in my book, hats off to the developers. It felt a bit like Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn in that sense. It feels like the world is large, but many of the areas only have one or two quests associated with them and you never go back. I wish the game were much larger, but as with all games with old-school RPG mechanics, the bigger you make the game, before you know it you're way too overpowered and the game loses it's challenge. It has a good story and I like how it flows into the second game. The pacing is great and I got to the end of the game without seeing it coming, which I always love because the whole time it felt like there was more to come. At first its pretty hard and very unforgiving if you have a poor build, but it gets pretty streamlined about one quarter of the way in and is easier. Combat system, while not bad, doesn't have a ton of depth to it. Borrows too much from other post-apocalyptic series, entire parts of the setting feel ripped straight out of Fallout or Stalker and hastily rebranded. Dialogue ranges from pretty good to awkward, sometimes it overindulges in internet culture references.

Inconsistent writing and unremarkable main storyline. + Ample selection of realistic weapons to choose from. Graphically it does its job well enough (although some exterior areas feel rather barebones).

+ Quite polished overall, very few bugs, no janky animations etc. + Large world map with tons of content to experience, most sidequests can be resolved in different ways depending on how you've built your character. + Strong sense of progression: you start out extremely weak and every piece of equipment you acquire feels like a meaningful upgrade. + Recaptures the 80s Soviet aesthetics very well. A competent Fallout clone that is faithful to its inspiration sources to a fault.
