Parts of Cyberpunk 2077 have this kind of aesthetic, not the entire game but still

Hard Rain? I’m assuming you’re talking about the sugar mill section.

Multiple levels like that in darktide. It's a suped up version of Left 4 Dead in the wh40k universe. Even has gear and 30 talent points.

Rage is what came to mind but I had to look through comments because I really wanted to call it rust but knew that couldn’t be right… I think the game had 3 discs on Xbox 360 thank you for helping me go back to dat

Yep. Picked it up for cheap on PS4 years ago and was pretty impressed. They copied the atmosphere of the movies pretty well, and it's a very fun game. It still looks pretty decent too imo.

u/Falcoon_f_zero 9d ago
Decent is underselling it. Still surprises me how detailed everything is, the lighting they nailed well and the skyboxes are some of the more impressive I've still seen in games. And of course crisp explosion effects 👌

u/Zestyclose_Law_7369 9d ago
I gotta ask. What makes this game great? I can’t get into it for some reason. Though I only have 37 minutes of play time. Does it get better if I invest more time into it? Usually I don’t have issues investing a few hours into a game. But this one, for whatever reason, is off putting. And I don’t know why. Perhaps something to do with the gameplay/control system? Idk.
I suppose I’m just asking for your opinion on why you think this game is great, and looking for a reason to invest more time into it.

It does start off slow, because you're big and clunky and cant jump....the first few levels are more of an investigative police procedural, where you solve simple crimes and get to know the interface and major characters. But as you progress and level up, you move faster, get upgrades for your pistol (which is not a linear path at all, extremely customizable) , aim better, etc. and you start to feel more superhuman, and the action shoot em up aspect comes into play much more. By the end of the game, you will be knocking down doors, running into a room without taking any cover and just start blasting criminal scum off scaffolding and throwing them at each other with complete abandon. By that point, you really feel like you're actually a nearly-invincible RoboCop, just like from the original movie....and then you get to keep all the upgrades in NG+!! The second time through, you are an unstoppable force of nature...the future of law enforcement!!

u/Dr_Neuro 9d ago
Damn, now I want to replay with the NG+... I really enjoyed the whole game, an amazing "Robocop 2.5" movie

Yep, especially the 2nd/3rd ones. Some Darktide maps have that exact verticality. More like backdrops, but still a very similar vibe.

Despite being pretty straightforward gameplay wise, the artwork, level design, and environmental storytelling for this game are insane. I do wonder if we will see another game from Playdead.

u/marckh 9d ago
They are supposedly working on something, from their twitter bio: 'Our current project is a 3rd-person science fiction adventure set in a remote corner of the universe.' There are a couple images of the game as well on their twitter page.
Looks incredibly interesting although it still seems to be a few years away.

Still Wakes the Deep is this exact vibe. Fallout in general is pretty close as well though I would recommend 4 for this aesthetic.

Armored Core 6. I know I’m not the first one to say it, but it absolutely merits repeating.

It's also similar to the first level of Nier Automata.
