Fix yo game or take it down

Fix your broken mess. It keeps crashing after a recent update. You're selling the game, you have the responsibility to fix it or mention in the title it's Broken.

tldr: Only buy it if you have already played the original Styx and love it and can't hold yourself from trying regardless of how bad it is.

Unfortunately I would have to down vote this game. I played Styx: Master of Shadows long back and was a fan ever since but the sequel is a complete shadow of the original game. It's quite visible the budget for this sequel was too less but the game mechanics itself are very contradictory. It has secondary achievement in every mission that are:

- swiftness: the fast you finish the mission the better
But what is the point of a stealth game when all I'm doing is speed running trough the missions?

- mercy kills: the less people you kill the better zero is the best
But if I don't kill anyone then what is the point of having a comprehensive skill section around stealth and combat? What is the point of upgrading skills when it's useless for achievements

these stupid achievements that are always in the background telling you that you're losing the score just makes it more miserable. I'm an assassin maybe I want to kill someone?

I completed half of the game without any skill unlock just trying to get the achievements and it made the game so boring. All I was doing just sneak and run fast from one place to another and trigger a cut scene. The need for unlocking the skills didn't really felt important until decided to ditch the entire secondary achievement and just started playing it for fun.

The story is average and cut scenes and dialogue are poor but when you're playing Styx you don't really care besides the main character and the game mechanics

On the bright side there is rarely any bugs except sometimes enemies just see you from way far randomly.

In short good story and great mechanics.

The story is not incredible or really something that would cause an itch to know more and more until you reach the very end. Overall not an exciting story that leaves you with a remark and you remember it your whole life.

The mechanics and gameplay is very thought through, they have made sure the mods and weapons align and connect with different play styles and chaining combos is also easier. Although I'm not sure why they didn't made this game a but more ruthless and more survival orientated. After the slight initial gun control difficult you just become too OP and land sick combos left n right

Overall money worth spend

It's a really fun game, sad the playerbase never took off.

A good game for gudget gamer. It's not COD and BF so you must have an aim skill to play with crosshair only.
