Every Bullet Matters Cronos doesn't do anything revolutionary or particularly new. You can clearly see Dead Space, Resident Evil and Silent Hill in its DNA. But somehow it still feels different enough to stand on its own. Gameplay The best part of the game is easily its gameplay loop. This might be the only action survival horror game where I actually had to think before every fight. Every bullet matters, every healing item matters, and using the environment is often the smartest way to deal with enemies. I really liked this approach. Unlike many "survival" games where you're swimming in resources after a few hours, Cronos keeps the pressure on until the end. The enemies do get repetitive very fast. You start seeing the same ones over and over again. But honestly, I didn't mind it that much because the gameplay loop itself stayed fun throughout the game. The lack of a map is annoying
i am 37 years old and not many games can hold my attention more than a hour. This game took me 21 hours to beat and i did it in 3 or 4 sittings. Its a very good, solid game and blooper delivered with a cool atmosphere.
After 15.8 hours I have completed my playthrough of Cronos The New Dawn and I must say, this game surprised me! I had an amazing adventure through the world of Cronos that was filled with a bunch of pros and cons, so lets go over them. PROS: Graphics - Cronos is gorgeous. Literally, every aspect of this game is incredible looking. From the locations, to the enemies, to the player characters and NPC's, everything is highly detailed, fits the world and is truly fantastic to look at. I kept taking screenshots as I was playing through the game because I couldn't believe how good it looked. Level Design - This game features fantastic level design. Truly so much to explore, shortcuts to find, vertical leveling with the gravity boots, it has it all. As you explore the areas and find secret rooms, collectibles (theres alot) etc, multiple weapons. Truly great design. Sound Design - This game
Graphics The game looks really solid visually. I kept asking myself multiple times: how is this only 20GB?! Gameplay Overall, the gameplay doesn’t differ much from similar titles, but the Merge system is a standout: enemies can absorb corpses of fallen foes and merge with them, doubling their health. To prevent this, you have to burn the bodies so nothing remains on the ground. Combat Combat can be broken down into four parts: • Gunplay: Excellent and satisfying. • Environmental Tools: Explosive barrels and fire canisters in arenas let you blow enemies into the air. • Equipment: Mainly used to slow enemies or finish them off when they’re low on health. • Melee: Unfortunately very weak and symbolic. No dodge, block, or parry; if you run out of ammo, you’re in serious trouble. Enemies, Weapons & Bosses Weapon variety is solid (not all weapons are story-based; some are found off the
REVIEW - CRONOS: THE NEW DAWN Story: The voyager ND-3476 awakens from hibernation to search for her deceased predecessor and continue her mission to find a high-priority target: Edward Wiśniewski. Gameplay and Mechanics: I want to emphasize that at the beginning of the game, you don't choose a difficulty, and it's not easy at all (Difficulties are unlocked by finishing the game once) You also have to be very careful how you manage your resources, as they are VERY LIMITED. The enemies are quite strong and can consume the corpses of their own dead allies, which gives them a lot of health and damage. (It's recommended to burn the bodies to avoid this.) Tip: I recommend exploring every corner of the game because there are hidden areas with extra loot. Weapons: There are a total of 7 weapons, and they are unlocked frequently as you progress through the story (ammo is expensive to craft).
This game is peak, and it is a shame people are passing it up for nit-picky reasons. From what I've seen, there's 2 reasons people are passing it up. 1. Performance Solution 1 - I recommend watching this optimization guide by Benchmarking. He breaks down each graphics setting, and how much they affect performance. He even has a solution for people with only 8GB of Vram https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyYFz1PZ_PM Solution 2 - This is one I did not see in the guide above. Use dynamic resolution scaling. You can set it to lock your FPS at 60. Your game may get fuzzy at intense periods, but it will stay smooth. 2. Difficulty: I see people complaining about ammo and resources. Solution 1 - CHARGE YOUR SHOTS. There are only two situations you should ever use an uncharged shot: shooting a barrel, or shooting the little green guys that explode. Every other situation though? Charge your sh
