![]() ![]() As a result, it feels more like an environmentalist manifesto than an immersive narrative.Ī roleplaying game is only as good as its narrative and characters. The story feels like it was written by Greta Thunberg and places greater emphasis on recycling and pollution than on characters and world-building. We need to curb excess pollution and recycle however, even I found the amount of “humans are bad because industry is bad” dialogue insufferable. I fully believe we need to be good stewards of our planet. As a result, they were forced to cut a few corners unfortunately, for those looking for an immersive RPG experience, one of those corners was NPC design and animation.įortunately, this lack of attention to detail does not extend to clothing, which is not only high quality but incredibly diverse, with hundreds of unique item designs players can mix and match to their heart’s content creating a unique look.īiomutant’s narrative is weak, preachy and overly repetitive. ![]() Like most aspects of Biomutant, the developers tried to do too much. Most characters appear to be randomly generated body parts thrown together to make the world seem stranger and more exotic.ĭespite having so few faces to animate an entire species sharing the same face, characters rarely show any expression, with dead eyes and motionless faces, even as they share dire news or glad tidings. Character Design.īiomutant has varied character designs, but I would not call them “good”. I don't think Biomutant is a great game, but it's a game that is far from a complete disaster and one that still manages to consistently offer a good time.īiomutant is out on May 25 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.Biomutant is hands down one of the worst games I have ever played, and certainly the worst game that I played in 2021 – BHReviews. It's not a review, though, so you can't do that, and maybe you've seen something you like the look of in our video chat. If this were a Biomutant review, which it isn't as I'm probably only about 10-15 hours into the game (a game that is threatening to be significantly longer than that), there'd be a fairly middling score at the end that you'd have glanced at and then made up your mind that Experiment 101's sprawling adventure isn't up to much and is one to be avoided. It's worth noting that the game doesn't have any specific Xbox Series X or PS5 enhancements as of yet, but the developer has suggested news on that is coming. On Series X it nips along at a fairly smooth 60 FPS and the colours are very pleasing to the eye. As I tried to convey via what seemed like a poor telephone link, Biomutant is a game that has many flaws, but none of them stopped me enjoying this often gorgeous game. ![]() Hopefully you've watched our lengthy chat above and come away with a better idea of what Biomutant is. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. It's the kind of game that perhaps these days can only come out of THQ Nordic, a game that is aiming for the sky but only manages to reach the second floor balcony of that 3-star hotel you would stay at but only if you had too. ![]() I don't want to spoil what Dorrani and I discuss in our video chat below, but I will say that Biomutant is one of the most uniquely odd games I've played in a long time. Biomutant is an ambitious open-world action RPG, but is it any good? ![]()
