Jankfest but not as bad as all that

October 07, 2024 23:52

Its like ES oblivion had a baby with fallout 3 and that baby came out 3rd person, if you can scrape through the first hour of gameplay theres a pretty good game beneath the terrible facial animations, the combat is stiff at first and a bit clunky but in the same vein as an early BS production, i gave it 4* because somehow it still has my attention unlike a lot of modern AAA. Its not going to win any awards but probs worth £15-20 if you can put up withe afore mentioned problems. Hard grind to level up but thats because it leans more into being an rpg than a full blown action game,this game deserved more time in production and suffers from being a bit unpolished

The xbox version has no blood fx in combat. Seems to be an xbox issue which makes no sense

Fix the camera bug

September 01, 2024 12:51

Please fix the bug causing a Shadow of quadrilaterals to be tied to the camera perspective. Very immersion breaking and ruins a good looking game.

Surprisingly enjoyable.

April 20, 2024 06:13

Felt a bit janky at first and I even thought that I had wasted my money but I stuck with it and ended up loving it. Had a couple of crashes but nothing major. A little tip, build up your character by selecting easy missions first or you'll get killed Dark Souls style. In the end, a rewarding game. Ps. Get the jet pack.

Decent but rusty experience

April 13, 2024 15:03

I've played and loved every Piranha Bites game, but ELEX II looks very old even if you compare it with the first chapter. Overall it's still decent, therefore I recommend you to give it a try only if you played the prevous game and you enjoyed it.

Clanky Janky and Brilliant

January 28, 2024 14:14

Real living world with excellent gritty and often nasty characters which actually react to you decisions. Graphics while buggy and rough are often spectacular with amazing locations and detail. There is a lot of walking from one person to another but the characters motivations and dialog keeps it interesting.

Fallout Junkies Will Love This

August 16, 2023 13:17

I feared the worst, as I really enjoyed Elex. Ok, it had a lot of issues, but it was an incredible experience. Elex 2 is delivering big time, better than the first, in my opinion, and how often do we say that? So well done development team. Yes, still has a lot of bugs, but an unbelievable game.

Old school rpg from Piranha Bytes

July 29, 2023 18:00

It's a great game, brings back memories of Gothic games. Yeah this game is plagued with technical issues and "vintage" but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very satisfying time sink

May 27, 2023 01:02

Massive action rpg with satisfying power-progression, consequential decisions and flight. Over 100 hours of gameplay if you like side-quests. The only real critcisms woud be Morrowind-style combat and dialogue and Oblivion-style graphics but if the worst that can be said is an old Elder Scrolls comparison then it's a solid win. Tempted to replay with different factions and choices.

STILL NOT PATCHED!

January 31, 2023 12:42

There is no blood fx in the xbox version of this game which dulls the experience in a mature rated game. There may be other things missing too. PC and PS5 owners get the full game experience. Lots of people are enjoying Elex 2 and that means it is a good game, but reviews should also take into account how their console version stands up in comparison. The game on xbox is unfinished and it's a mark of disrespect to the consumer, by both Piranha Bytes and the publisher, that we get saddled with an inferior copy. So... STOP the ROT and.... refuse to purchase Elex 2 on the Microsoft store until it's fixed. Xbox gamers love their games just as much as Playstation gamers, so please give us an equal product. Case closed!

What a wonderful world...

January 16, 2023 04:39

What do you get if you cross Dragon age with Fallout? This! Add in a jetpack, a surprise rock star and some great conversations to provide hours of fun on easy. Or play a higher difficulty for added grind. No this game isn't perfect. Some conversations are hilariously broken, the inventory system is very basic and combat can feel clunky, but all this just adds to the character of the game. Glad i bought it.(15thFeb - Omg i love this game! So many different ways of playing. And omg, the chapters, I'm up to four so far on a 3rd different character lol.

Best underated RPG

September 22, 2022 18:48

Game is beautiful master work as usual a classic form of RPG. Haters just suck at the game.... It doesnt matter this game doesn't get the credit it deserves because the devs make this for their fans thats what matters. I enjoy this way more then big beast titles such as fallout because this isnt brain dead childs play. You actually work hard carve your way to the rewards you seek. Combat is a challenge and everything is written and designed greatly. As a fan of clerics i was sad to see they aren't as... Dominant as they once was... But thats fine theres explanations to why and its understandable. That said i joined the morkons because im a fan of these type of factions. I'll go albs next. Buy the game immerse yourself its great. Reason 1 star is missing is due to no blood effects for some reason... Its annoying.. And the patches to the xp and elexit glitches its such a slow long grind and prices of things and requirements are insane. First game was so fun because of the exploits.

Incredible

August 09, 2022 11:30

First of all this is a deep rpg game, not a pick up and play action title. So if that appeals to you and you dont mind starting weak and slowly building your character , then there is much to enjoy. The quest stuctue and writing in this game are amazing and the interaction between characters is the best I've ever seen. The longer you play the better it gets, Piranhna Bites your games rule, Thank you.

Great RPG

August 03, 2022 19:36

A nicely indepth rpg, kinda puts me in mind of Summoner for reasons I have yet to put my finger on. Good faction and npc interactions, interesting sub-plots and overall a brilliantly fleshed-out gameworld. A few minor niggles (companions *constantly* strafing into line of fire, even the most basic weapons needing crazy stats to use, and a weapon/item wheel that doesn't slow the combat) but nothing you don't get used to eventually.

Janky and charming?!

July 29, 2022 04:47

I am definitely not impressed by the graphics and slightly cringe dialogue from the NPCs. However, behind all that is actually a solid Role Playing game with a fun gameplay loop and challenging combat. I'm impressed, but appalled at the same time, yet somehow its still very enjoyable. I got this on the ultimate sale for £37, I'd say its worth around £30 at best but still, about 50hrs of good gameplay here. A little more if you chase achievements. If you like RPGs but don't care much for pretty graphics, go for it!

I Can't Believe It's So Good!

May 08, 2022 20:24

I checked it out Online and was promised a Clunky, Janky experience. What I got instead is a deep immersive RPG that looks great and runs smooth on the Series X. You start off weak and have to build your character. There's no level scaling but dangerous enemies have a skull above their names so avoid them until you're stronger and avoid fighting groups. Save often. People are spoiled and moan because they can't kill everything at level 5. The combat is better than people give it credit for. You simply can't walk up to enemies an spam attack and hope to out-tank them. Move out of the way of attacks and manage Stamina. The world is amazing. Vast, vibrant, dangerous and full of opportunity. The jet pack is awesome and adds so much depth to exploration and combat. Cut scenes are the only thing that look a little dated and that's easy to forgive in a game with so much depth that offers a beautiful and above all believable world. I expected janky but different, I got Amazing instead.

Deep RPG

March 23, 2022 14:46

Thank you, developers. I love the way the supporting characters have their own stories and the incremental way they unfold keeps them real. I appreciate how the faction and locational progression unfolds in a naturalistic way. The real achievement here is that Elex offers a populated world to live in and as a roleplayer, I am digging this in a big way. Great work!
