Atmospherically, this is absolutely great again. The jumpscares were right again, only N4bA can do that. I also think it's great that something new is being tried out here with the shotter aspect.
But in my opinion, the mechanics still need a lot of work. The character staggers like after 5 bottles of vodka, which makes it really hard to aim properly. This is made even more difficult by the limited FOV. In addition, you don't have any aiming points, laser pointers or crosshairs. After each shot, the character pulls the gun up so high that the second shot goes into the ceiling.
I understand the intention behind it, to keep the game as realistic as possible, but from a purely gameplay technical point of view, it doesn't really work for me.
I also think the game is called prototype because it is a kind of technical demo in which the developer simply tries something new. But the whole thing is really good and I hope they perfect it and bring out a really cool game in the style of Condemned.
Another thing to note is that the game lags annoyingly and crashed once when I went down to the basement.
I'm very curious to see what will become of the whole thing. N4bA is and remains the best developer studio for horror games at the moment.
