It’s very artistic, similar to how Superhot: MCD feels a lot of the time. I for one understood the story partially and what message it was trying to say. The other thing that I feel needed more is the story. I’m excited to watch playthroughs of MCD to see people learning each level and some mastering further than I did. Everything plays around you, and you’re left to use that however you see fit. Once you figure out where your big power items are, it becomes an elegant dance that you run. I don’t want to go into what each area has as it’s more fun to find that for yourself, but I can guarantee you won’t find a stone out of place. From the minute details to the placement of objects, everything feels like it was put there for a reason.
Thankfully, each level that is there is meticulously crafted in a way that shows there was thought put in. Possibly with a few more levels that could have been alleviated, but not from what’s there. As much as it pains me to say, I’m worried many will feel the latter on that.
Some may believe that it allows you to learn and master each level, but others will just find it repetitive. There are new things introduced consistently to freshen things up, but all across the same levels for the whole game. The biggest issue I see this game having though is its repetitiveness. It makes the game feel familiar for veterans, but still fresh to keep playing. The first game had this, but nowhere near the same extent as Superhot: MCD thanks to the new tools and hacks. What you pick up and how you choose to use it will determine how the rest of the battle plays out, and it allows for a lot of forward-thinking. It all joins the overarching feeling of choice the game holds. For example, a binder may only stun an enemy while a record will slice enemies in half. You have new weapons that test your skills, and different throwables that hold varying levels of power. It truly compliments the elegant killing that made the first one great, with that being improved upon immensely. It’s like Superhot this time around is trying to be more adaptable, and it succeeds in every way here.Īnd that only lends itself to the rest of the gameplay. Not every hack or core may feel great to you, but each one holds its place in the sandbox for different playstyles. They’re different modifiers that change how you play, from hacks that cause bullet ricochet to cores that allow you to swap between bodies. You have your standard Superhot gameplay, but the introduction of cores and hacks make the game special. MCD takes what made the first game special, and innovates on that to make it more unique and exciting. People are likely going to expect Superhot: MCD to be a sequel to Superhot, but that’s not what this is. Superhot: MCD’s Beautifully Refined Gameplay Released today, I got the chance to play it and overall, the game is very, very good. Thankfully, that’s where Superhot: Mind Control Delete comes into play. It was a little short though, resulting in a lot left to be desired. It’s what makes it one of the more memorable shooters I’ve played in recent years. The idea of time only moving when you move takes what you expect from a shooter, and forces you to think more critically. This isn’t bad by any means, as games like Prey 2017 and Dishonored 2prove to be great first-person shooters in their own right. Every single one usually comes down to a set amount of guns, and maybe a few abilities that change the game a little. If you look at any first-person shooter over the past five years, you’ll see very little that changes.
