What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Story feels very inspired by other FPS games at that time, especially Half-Life.
The whole surveying a base and then attacking it which became really popular for modern open world games works really well here too even with the non-open world linear structure.
This game was obviously way ahead of its time and was one of the first games with decent 3D graphics.
The audio design is good, the weapons sound and feel quite meaty, the only drawback would be the really Corny "Dude" style Voice Acting, that both the Protagonist (Jack Carver) and the grunts you face kind of use (Although I will admit, can be amusing at times with how goofy it is).
The enemy AI feels aggressive and unpredictable, and the sound design and atmosphere still manage to create tension even today.
Fourth, if you are recording videos of this game and you want it to be smooth, just do it in Windowed mode, you will get better FPS and your game will not Freeze while recording.
