Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just finished the Single Player game.Those who liked Doom 3 will like this one too, those who didn't, won't.It's really more of the same, which was what I was looking for. I'd say it's about two-thirds as long as D3, which ain't too bad for an addon.You'll find the familiar array of weapons but with the addition of the double-barrel shotgun, the grabber gun, and the "artifact".There's no soul cube.For those wondering about the "artifact", it gathers souls of dead human scientist to charge and when activated it puts you into "hell time" slowing the baddies down (like in every other FPS made in the past five years). It powers up when you kill bosses, adding extra damage and invincibility to the hell time ability.
The gravity gun--oops, I mean "grabber" gun doesn't make a huge difference in the game like it did in Half-Life 2.At least I didn't have much use for it--your mileage may vary.A huge drawback is that it can hold items for just a few seconds.That's hardly enough time for the smoke of the fireball (or whatever) you just caught to clear away so you can aim it back.I found this very frustrating--nothing like the saw blade chucking fun of H-L2.
I heard a lot of early rumors that they were making this game more well lit than Doom 3 (which got a lot of flack for being too dark). Don't beleive it. Resurrection of Evil will have you toggling between flash light and weapon as much as D3 did (still no duct tape there in the future).It's only more well lit in the first few levels.If anything there's more occlusion due to smokier environments and the dimming effect you have to deal with when you use hell time (it narrows your vision with a swirling border).So if that was your big gripe about D3, you may wanna steer clear of ROE.
The graphics are at least as good as D3, which is to say excellent. Sometimes I just had to stop and marvel at the endless detail.It's still largely an "indoor" game with the same mad dashes across the martian surface.One thing I really appreciated was that they seem to use the most annoying monsters the least.No endless spawning of spiders or cherubs like in D3.And that zombie-in-a-closet trick that got really old in D3 doesn't happen much, so maybe the guys at id took some constructive criticsm.Just not about duct tap.
