Lost Alpha is a new episode of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series made by dezowave group for free!
1/10 - Agree (14) Disagree (6)
The main reason I give a 1 for the LA, is the aggressivity of the dev team & co. They, along with their fanboys cannot accept any kind of criticism, and look down from a Parnassus of their own.
Another funny thing is, that their main defence against any criticism is repeating the 'it's free' mantra, not counting, that they were planning to release the game in a short time for real money. The convenient 'leak' just came in time, when GSC probably refused to accept their mock of STALKER.
The lesser part consists of minor things:
- Terrible story.
- Retarded AI.
- Retarded, unskippable cutscenes.
- Terrible voice acting in most cases.
- Annoying soundscape.
- Cheap way of extending the gameplay (strolling through nothing for the 20th time).
- BUGS. Even if they tried to iron out them.
- Dumbed down in many ways.
- Unbalanced.
I have to mention positive experiences too, like the extensive world, thus providing great possibilities for future modding. It's a shame, that the other aspects couldn't reach up to the game's level design.
