Short, but very enjoyable.

NeoTokyo provides an atmosphere unlike anything else I've ever played. The not-quite dystopian-future theme, 0Edit's stellar soundtrack, the amazing map design; are all tied together by Source graphics that still look spectacular more than a decade later.

Though NeoTokyo's community is by far one of the most welcoming I've seen, it's small enough that unless it's a late afternoon or “NeoTokyo Friday”, it's unlikely that you will find a server with people in it.

That being said, I genuinely believe that anyone who watched and enjoyed the game trailer on this page should give NeoTokyo a try regardless—even if just to experience The Feels. Play one of the game's tracks on YouTube (doesn't matter which one, they are all bangers), and just roam an empty map or two for a few minutes—you will see what I mean.

$70, for this?

My 8 year old mouse has a polling rate too high for Dread Hunger to handle—1,000hz that is mind you.

Game FPS dips to less a frame a second if the mouse is moved at more than a snail's pace (this is not an exaggeration, the game essentially freezes), and makes the game unplayable without manually adjusting my mouse drivers every time I play, and then reverting the changes made.

The game tutorial, from what I sampled, is actually very good. It provided a broad overview of gameplay mechanics, while actually being engaging; most of the time it felt like just a standard game, quickly building me up.

That being said, the tutorial softlocked itself for me about half way through. The tutorial instructs me to climb an ice wall with an ice axe. However, it became impossible to the top of the wall, as the wall would eject you once you got halfway up. Always at the exact same spot too.

I probably tried to make it work for about 10 minutes before saying "♥♥♥♥ it" and going to the lobby browser.

English lobbies have been complained about to death, so I'll spare you any repetition, and just leave this at me saying that this has been an issue for me too. However, this is a very minor issue in my opinion, as non-English speakers can be easily kicked from game lobbies by the host.

Overall I do enjoy Dread Hunger, and will probably continue to play it. However, due to many of the game's issues (some of which mentioned above) I just can't hit recommend yet; though with updates I am sure this will change.⠀

Still extremely bare-bones, but has a lot of potential
