Not really sure what all the hate is about? It is like every retro shooter I have ever played!! I mean it isn't the greatest game ever but it is fine. Lots of rough spots, lots of good spots, lots of pissing around too.6/10

Thought I would add a final review
I finished the game and I thought it was pretty good. It did remind me of the very first Half-Life
It had rough edges just like Half-Life when it first came out. Lots of nostalgia playing this for me. Old Skool vibes for sure.

I did enjoy it. I change my score to 8/10

I think issues with these games arise when they make the levels too wide open. Especially if you have crappy AI you're not doing yourself any favors by making these big maps.

Ion Fury, which I loved, had SOME wipe open ones but most were a good mixture. The DLC they seemed to go much bigger which means all the flaws of the game look magnified.

I'm still gonna give this a try at some point but i think the demo really soured me on it, unfair as that may be.

The trailer looks good.
WABS gameplay looks bad.
The second headshot video was AI generated and not a real person playing the release build.

i think pass unfortunately.

Something very off in the voice and speech timing in that video, it sounds like text-to-speech model. Or he bizarrely post-processing his voice -> either way gamingbolt skip.

why have 1 gaming utub account if you could with equal effort make content for 15 utub accounts with tts derp.

Didn’t know this but apparently GamingBolt are Indian.

https://www.reddit.com/r/IndianGaming/s/0dF1R5ksIv

The guy narrating the review is John Cantees who seems to do various voiceover work including GamingBolt reviews.

hmm starting to think maybe some youtubers are just mad they didnt get paid off because so far I think its a fun labor of love.
Or they may have expected a little too much from a retro FPS. There are plenty of little interactive details here

It is certainly a lot better than most of the Steam/YouTube reviews say. Phantom Fury reminds me of SiN & SiN: Episodes for some reason.

From the reviews I have seen, it seems to be a competent fun shooter, that doesn't innovate a lot and unfortunately suffers towards the end. Last levels apparently feel unfinished and a bit buggy. But overall this is pretty sure not a bad or catastrophic game.

Man, I have fond memories of SiN.

Also, had so much hope for the SiN Episodes...

But...

I don't see the resemblance. Laughing
