Callisto protocol – an overview on INDIAN

Well guys, it’s here! Calm down and breathe easily. Glen Schofieldfather of the legendary Dead spacebecause he brought us another treat. It’s coming out today Callisto Protocol. The game that for many players is the most anticipated this year. It was talked about, written about, and we all could not wait to see how the name would turn out in the end. And I’ll tell you from the start that he couldn’t have done better. And to all those who say, “Eh, this is just another Dead Space”, I will say one thing. Yes, it is: But a lot, A LOT OF better dead space.

You all know that we rate games based on several elements such as graphics, sounds, gameplay and so on. One of those things is history. And he’s in callisto protocoI am absolutely top notch. I could easily light a fire, make myself some hot chocolate, and tell you all about it in a few minutes. But it’s simply impossible to describe it to you in a way that you can understand without me revealing important parts.

But I want to give you at least a small indication of what brought me to my knees. The year is 2320, and as Jacob Lee, brilliantly played by actor Josh Duhamel, you are flying through space as a messenger.. And no, you don’t have Bender or Dr. Black. Zoidberg. One day you will be tasked with delivering a shipment of medicines to Dark Iron Prison on Callisto, Jupiter’s second largest moon.

As happens in most games, movies, and books, something goes wrong and you’re lucky to survive a spaceship crash. So, when you are born a second time and the local shepherds come to save you in a harsh winter, they immediately pick you up and imprison you. And so I end the story. Neither you nor your character know anything at all. The whole plot is about you trying to figure out multiple things using different shards. Why are you imprisoned? Why are there weird emz’s all over the place? You learn everything with time. The way the dialogue is brilliantly written and how some situations reach epic climax… It’s just a masterpiece.

All time the story develops beautifully. Several times I had the feeling that the game is coming to an end and yet there is a twist, the plot takes a completely different direction and continues again. The dialogue, the twists and the overall delivery of the story to the players is excellent.. I said you didn’t know anything at all, but I didn’t say much. On the back of the head, you can see the remaining lives and the number of rounds when firing a weapon. However, you really do not know the most important thing. In a word, the absence of a map and ignorance of the environment are uncompromising.

Although this the game is mostly linearI had a few problems with what to do and where to go. So while this may seem like a problem at first glance, I would rather classify it as a positive aspect of the game. sex guy Josh Duhamelso sorry Jacob Lee, he also does not know the local conditions and does not know what to do. Developers from Killing distance so they put more emphasis on the fact that the protagonist is really you behind the screen, not a stick figure you control.

Now that I’ve covered shooting and weapons, let’s take a closer look at combat in Callisto Protocol are underway. The game gives you some freedom in whether you prefer melee or ranged combat. So it’s up to you whether you decide to beat the mutants on Callista with some kind of electric baton or shoot their limbs off with a firearm.

For example, a machine gun or a shotgun. You can while playing find, craft and upgrade at dedicated upgrade stations, which you will find in the game a few. There are three main aspects that you can increase: stack capacity, stability and damage. If you manage to upgrade the weapons to the maximum, you may be rewarded with explosive missiles, which, of course, consume more ammo.

However, I ran into my first problem when upgrading my gear. When killing a mutant and then attacking him, in most cases something will fall out of him. Whatever they are lives, fees or credits. And there are very few credits (the currency that was used to pay) in the game. I diligently trampled all the corpses into a mess, searched for boxes of equipment and sold unnecessary items. However, after beating the game, only one of them improved by 100%.

I would understand if the offer to start popped up after I completed the game New Game+ and I could replay the game with existing gear on a higher difficulty. It’s more than clear to me that this will most likely be part of some future update, but I just want it now. And if you can’t decide whether to choose a baton or maybe a shotgun, you will get confused in all this. ability to use telekinesis.

So, it’s weapons and their upgrades, and now it’s finally time for the combat system as such. I confess, although I preferred ranged combat and put almost all my credits into firearms, nothing compares to the feeling when you hit some bastard with a pole. On the controller Double meaning the fight is not difficult. You can use the R2 button to make a weaker attack and the R1 button to make a stronger one, and with the left stick, you can also dodge enemy attacks in addition to the angle of impact. So it sounds pretty boring but trust me boring is the last word that comes to mind after about sixteen hours of gameplay..

However, what will completely frustrate you is weapon switching.. Of course, you can use the D-pad arrows to quickly switch weapons, and if you only have two weapons, this is not a problem. But as your arsenal increases, you will need to think more about switching weapons. Therefore, you need to hold the arrow on the cross, select the desired weapon with the next arrow in the list and confirm with a cross. And believe me, in most cases it will need to be recharged. Doing all this with literally hordes of opponents running at you is rather clumsy and quite annoying after a while.

This is also one of the reasons why I voted quite often electric baton. Either way, you can’t run up to everyone and smash their heads in. Some enemies crawl and can explode, some mutate and become stronger, others resemble clickers from The Last of Usbecause they are guided only by ear. Like this in the game emphasis is also placed on secrecyi.e. stealing. But it’s always just a matter of sneaking around enemies. They cannot be lured out, and killing them by sneaking up behind them will attract more abominations in most cases. I could go on and on about the types of all these emz’s, but I just don’t want to deprive you of the experience.

Although I hinted at the beginning that Callisto Protocol did a great job, so now I’m going to contradict myself a bit. More than once she managed to call me back completely unbalanced difficulty. In some cases, I was to blame myself. I got into a fight without searching the next room full of ammo, or just bumping into a group of mutants when it would have been better to sneak across the room. However, there were often situations where this was not possible except by brute force, or situations where the game served you after a brutal fight. boss fight. But you’re out of ammo, out of lives, and after a few deaths, you’re not in the mood.

The greatest case of total helplessness was game over for me and a few other members of the editorial staff. In the final battle, I got so stuck that I called Fiola, Gela and Honzas, turned on all the assistants, lowered the difficulty to the easiest and turned on in the settings so-called high contrastto better see enemies. And in general, I hung out with him for three hours.

Nobody said that Callisto Protocol it will be an easy game. And I’m up for that challenge for me Glen Schofield prepared with his team, very satisfied. But ordinary gamers who just want to relax with a video game after a hard day’s work and are not very experienced could just be put off. All these are small things that can only bother me and a small group of players. But it doesn’t spoil the overall impression of the game. And if so, then so be it. the audiovisual of the game compensates you for all this, including interest.

So, I’ll start with what you see – with graphics. There are games that are beautifully made. For example Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us Part II and Horizon Forbidden West. All of them have a lot of color, a detailed world and a change in the time of day. And then there’s The Callisto Protocol, which takes place mostly in the dark and in a nasty, damp, gloomy environment. However, he can compete with these titles with pride. Are you in jail black ironin a cave or just running outside, everywhere you breathe the formidable atmosphere of how inhospitable the moon is Callisto Hooray.

Drops of sweat on the main character’s head, weapon parts or footprints in the snow. Even the smallest details look fantastic. And when I add to that, how beautifully crafted the fight scenes and death animations, like the trampled head, it’s just beautiful to look at. And I’m in favor of it performance mode, i.e. Full HD and 60 fps, on which I played almost the entire game. When switching to quality mode, more precisely 4K and 30 fps, but apart from a lower frame rate, I didn’t really notice anything. Sweat drops, Josh Duhamel’s stubble, and blood splatters everywhere were more detailed, but not so much that I sacrificed a higher frame rate.

And then there’s the audio. If I ever said that the audio aspect of a game takes it to the next level, well, Callisto Protocol exactly two. Whether you’re listening to music, gunshot effects, or falling water drops. All this sounds very good. And honestly, there are no words to describe how great the sound is. Well, watch the video and judge for yourself.

I tried to describe to you, without spoilers, how unique and amazing the title is. Callisto Protocol Hooray. Of course, he has his shortcomings. The difficulty could be better balanced, the writers could also solve weapon switching better, for example with a wheel-shaped inventory like for example. PUBGof which he is also the publisher Crafton.

Or maybe more credits could drop from dead opponents. Once I even fell through a texture and the game crashed. But this is mostly nonsense. Despite the fact that the game was overly difficult in places, I went through it calmly. Switching weapons annoyed me, but I put up with it. And that there are few loans? It is possible that in some future update or even DLC will come New Game+ and we will continue with the same equipment.

Now please excuse me. For the first time I can say the following words as an editor. It took a little over a year, and perhaps Gelu had been waiting for this for fifteen years. But for the great story, sound effects and feelings that stayed with me after beating the game, si The Callisto protocol rates the recommendation up to ten points out of ten.. Some fit, some don’t. Many of you will refute my point of view, and many of you will fully agree with me. But the last month of 2022 brought one of the best games of the year..
