[Released February 20, 2023]
On this episode of First Impressions, Agent P3 (and his AI glove CHAR-LES) arrives in Chelomey City. Here in this airborne utopia of the future, the scientific wonders of the Soviet Union are used by and displayed to select members of the greater public. But, P3 is here on business, as our bossman Dr. Sechenov has called us here on a special assignment. After taking in the sights of the city on the way to our meeting, and getting an upgrade for the glove, we ride a real long elevator in order to get a key from Sechenov’s two robot ballerinas/bodyguards. Then, we take a car through the air to the ground below the city, Facility 3826, where all the cutting edge technology is developed and built. Before we can touch down, we’re attacked by drones and robots. It’s only after this that our boss calls to tell us “oops, all the robots down there turned murderous a few days ago”. Still, with the help of a well-armed Granny Zina we make it to the Vavilov Complex. Thinks aren’t any better down here, with the facility on lockdown and murderous robots trying to hunt down any survivors. We meet a doctor, fight a robot with a face-mounted laser, and get accosted by a horny killer vending machine.

You didn't used to be this cynical.

The bumpy beginning with unexplained abilities aside, the game actually managed to build a neat atmosphere – the Babushka thing was kinda funny and cool as well.But at the end of that ride on the hidden broken elevator, the game took a turn to the edgy/snarky, that just doesn't seem to fit with the rest – that felt like it broke the pacing immediately.Or maybe it's just me.Edit: Yeah, it also feels like there were multiple concepts of the character, and they tried to retain and merge them, without retaining the different character backgrounds.I get a strong "Character has strong distrust of/prejudice against robots" vibe during a lot of the interactions with CHAR-les, without any reason.Then, a few moments later, the character praises robots and the sovjet union. Weird.

I had the same confusion going into this one as well. Everyone seems to focus on the fukkdolls and associated memes, but when it comes to the actual gameplay and experience it just seems to be a vague "slavjank bioshock" which is… Apparently misguided as a descriptor. I get very big Bioshock Infinite vibes from the intro sequence, but mostly because that whole game was an existential nightmare too.

WHy, why does this need to exist? WHy do people insist on playing this even though it is sponsored by the russian state and it is fueling the Russian invasion of Ukraine with it's revenue.
I don't even wanna see anything of this game, A lot of people lost my subscription because they decided this was a good thing to do while I am coveting Ukrainian war refugees under my roof who has lost homes due to russian invasion.
Not to mention this game is filth and promotes sovietism in it's worse way…

There is one thing in the intro that makes me real sick, there is a music playing and every once in a while it goes off-tone for a second or two. It's like nails on a chalkboard. Female android voices modulation is also incredibly jarring.
