Atomic Heart: Players are more euphoric than the critics
In the meantime, the shooter role-playing game Atomic Heart has been released, so players have already been able to submit numerous user reviews. The day before, the critics had already published their reviews of the game. It is interesting that the players rated Atomic Heart noticeably better than the trade press.
With Atomic Heart, an FPS shooter with Bioshock bonds has been released, which many players were looking forward to in advance, as the high position in the Steam wish list showed. The reviews on Steam, meanwhile, reveal that the wait was worth it, as players are looking forward to the title very favorably. To date, Atomic Heart has received over 1,600 user reviews on Steam, 88 percent of which are positive. So the developers of Mundfish definitely seem to have struck a chord with the players.
Also see the player count for Atomic Heart not bad, because since the release tonight we’ve been playing almost 40,000 Steam users the RPG shooter at the same time. A user praises the design of the game world and mentions the many puzzles and the level of action. At the same time, there should be no performance problems with a resolution of 4K. So if you want Atomic Heart to be a mixture of Half-Life and Bioshock, you’ll get your money’s worth. Other commentators on Steam also praise the game’s humor and gameplay. Overall, there are no technical problems to complain about.
The critics are a little less euphoric
As is well known, there were already reviews of the game on the day before the release, which can be viewed and summarized on the Opencritic and Metacritic websites. In both cases, Atomic Heart doesn’t get 88 points, but “only” 74 (Opencritic) and 77 points (Metacritic). Metacritic has collected 19 reviews for the PC version so far, 14 of which are positive. Full marks come from GamersRD, who praise developer Mundfish for creating a universe with the perfect combination of passion, discipline and talent, and calling Atomic Heart a masterpiece of the art.
The 100 points are then followed by two 90 points and then six times 80 points. In the latter assessment also lined up the PC Games colleagues one, whose conclusion is: “With enormously fun, varied gameplay, great art style, interesting story and great sound, Atomic Heart manages to outperform its many small blunders.”
Matching: Atomic Heart: Until Armageddon – Known difficulty levels of the shooter
Ausgamers from Australia was the least friendly with Atomic Heart and therefore awarded only 58 points. Disappointment spread here because of the expectations and promises regarding the artistic orientation, the combat system and the SciFi design of Soviet Russia. In addition, the narrative, unequal fights and character design should have been a thorn in the side of the critics.
