Not a well done game.

Played this game as a teen when it came out, figured I'd give it another go all these years later, and my goodness did I forget or not understand how bad it was.
The walking speed is absolutely horrid. Might be the slowest I've ever moved in a game, which is still pretty slow at max speed.
But most of all, the combat system is absolutely atrocious. Like maybe the worst I've ever played. The enemies ability to phase through your hits to do this stun lock nonsense is just unenjoyable.

This game is great tho. No idea what your issue is. Seems like you're way too used to modern "AAA" games which are beyond broken usually.

Such an ignorant fanboy, you can’t intellectually retort, so you insult.
What I said can’t be refuted, it can just be fine to you, which is an opinion, same as mine.

Ticket to ride is the only part of this game I say was badly designed.

It's absolutely not a skill isue lmfao. This isnt a game that requires a single ounce of skill. Not a single ounce of knowledge as it has a really well done compass, recipes are handed out with levels means you don't even need knowledge.
There's literally no skill to this game, it's just play and level, then start story with 3 speed for a perfect run.
You guys acting like children going straight to insults because you can't logically defend is pathetic.

The movement is fine I wish they would put a patch in to fix the audio though

I think the movement is fine. It's an old game now so the combat and animations won't be as fluid as new games but there's nothing wrong with this game, it's a classic.

Skill Issue, if you think the game is just kill and level up you obviously haven't found any shortcuts, hidden items, blueprints, weapons, firendly npcs... The game is optimized so you can do everything but feel like you're always about to lose it all... Give it another shot...

I'm so tired of you ignorant people with the mentality of kids. There is literally not a single ounce of skill in this game, but you're getting butt hurt because nostalgia doesn't overtake factual representations of it. Just check my damn achievements for it, I did it all, got all the survivors, got max level.
For christ sake, the guy standing on the ATM's in the palasides mall, which is the one you get to through the bathroom stall shortcut, has to be talked to 12 DIFFERENT times before he follows.
That's not bad game because extended dialogue, it's a very poorly done because you have to look at him and hit talk a DOZEN different times to get through it.
EVERY single character is 2-6+ times to get through dialogue because they couldn't even get the NPC dialogue system done well.
Y'all literally have the mentality of kids insulting someone making logical points you can't retort, so you go into defensive mode for no damn reason. Grow up.
