    Early impressions after playing for about 2 hours, Let me play the fuckin game for chrissake. Stop forcing me into damn menus and making me read billions of text bubbles. For the 10 minutes I was in combat it seems fun but geez it's hard to get into this right now. I shall persist. Game crashed once already as well.... something I seem to be experiencing a lot more it seems on the PS5 than my PS4 days.

      Editing … Also fuck mouse cursor type menu bullshit on a console. I don't want to move around a cursor with my joystick it's never felt intuitive.

      Editing … I never would have expected Returnal to be the time loop action game that puts Deathloop to shame in the story and game design department.

      Editing … I just started this game, enjoying it but also hate the forced menu tutorials. I don't like that the tutorials are telling me what choices to make, like wow, thanks for forcing me to skip noon so I could stick to a narrow path.

      Editing … After recently finishing a couple games I decided to hop back into Deathloop since I gave up on it pretty quick before, and upon being faced with all the big dumb loadout menus for things I barely remember I almost immediately lost interest again. If I ever make an earnest attempt to finish I'll probably do a full restart from the beginning (isn't that how the whole game works? Har har) to get the story introduction and tutorials again. I still can't believe how many outlets gave this a 10/10 and major awards.

      Editing … The AI is honestly ridiculously dumb. The game's fine, but it's hard to see anything special in it. The dialogue sucks.

      Editing … I don't feel like I line up anymore with the masses opinion. I'll prob give Deathloop another go at some point but I doubt my mind will change.

      Editing … AI seems to be a problem area in immersive sims, but yeah, in Deathloop it's especially bad. It was one of the major reasons I lost interest originally. Due to the game's conceit you're going to be killing or sneaking past a lot of the same dudes in the same spots over and over again so it would be smart to include some clever AI responses so the player feels encouraged to experiment. But no, it has to be the same legally blind, partially deaf, gullible, forgetful morons we have in every game.

      Editing … In Deathloop, the enemies will somehow completely miss that there's a gunfight going on almost right beside them. So often I think I've cleared a battlefield, only to find out there are a bunch of NPCs still casually patrolling. When I duck behind cover, enemies sometimes seem to think I've made a miraculous escape, and return to their patrols. Sometimes the AI runs in circles during combat. Also their accuracy is shit. I don't really feel like the game excels at anything, it just gets some bonus points for trying its own thing (but like, these time loop puzzles are weak as fuck when I've just played Outer Wilds).

      Editing … When I played earlier today I encountered bug after bug, including some that required me to close the game, so that's kind of encouraging me to quit :|

      Editing … Of all the recent time loop games, Deathloop is the least interesting. Outer Wilds, Returnal, the Forgotten City, all more compelling than the so called GOTY contender that is Deathloop. Even that one I haven't played where James McAvoy fucks his sister who is Daisy Ridley sounds more interesting.

      Editing … Honestly, the more I play Deathloop, the more I start to just outright hate it. I think it's time to quit and move on to the next game. Its AI is insanely terrible, probably worse than Aliens: Colonial Marines; it's a buggy mess; it's ridiculously easy; funnily for a time loop game, it's also annoyingly repetitive.
