Jogo excelente. Boas mecânicas, história envolvente, perigo e tensão durante toda a jogatina. Você tem que saber administrar bem os recursos, porque não é sempre que você encontra "materiais" (o principal recursos para melhorar fuzileiros e armas), ferramentas de solda e kit médico. eu mesmo jogando no modo difícil consegui administrar bem, mas tem que lootear bem e ir com poucos itens em cada expedição, para dar espaço para buscar mais. Algumas mecânicas pecam, como não poder escolher o líder do pelotão e assim não conseguir dar prioridade pra quem vai na frente do esquadrão (pra quem tem franco atirador sabe como isso é importante). Mas no geral, é um ótimo jogo. Peguei em uma promoção.

Dopo 10 ore di gioco in cui ho affrontato le missioni a livello Incubo mi ritrovo davvero insoddisfatto e frustrato. Ci sono collezionabili buggati e altri glitch vari nelle missioni che molto spesso ti obbligano ad abbondare la campagna in corso per cominciarne una nuova, costringendoti a buttare via tante ore di gioco.
La grafica risulta abbastanza scadente e il gameplay non particolarmente innovativo.
Sono rimasto molto dispiaciuto in quanto sono un grande amante del franchise ma il gioco non vale davvero la pena secondo il mio parere.

Одна из лучших игр во вселенной Чужих.

+Атмосфера лютая. Даже на средней сложности игра даёт полный спектр эмоций.
+Динамика чувствуется. Круто, что это НЕ пошаговая стратегия типа X-COM.

- Небольшие просадки в фпс, но это не критично и точно не портит впечатление от игры.
- Одна из тех игр, которая на хардкоре именно душит, а не заставляет стараться играть лучше и внимательнее. Рекомендую среднюю.

This game isn't Alien Rogue Incursion, and that alone makes it an amazing game.

But jokes aside, this is actually a very novel take on the Alien franchise, and one that I don't feel got enough love or attention because of what it is. I can't in good conscience write a proper review for this right now, as it's been a hot minute since I played, but I fully well plan to replay this after having quit on Rogue Incursion on account of how bad that game was. I already liked this game, but that one made me realize this one was way better than I initially realized. I will come back and write a proper review when I replay this and have fresher takes to offer.

♥♥♥♥ Rogue Incursion. Genuinely worse than Colonial Marines, because at least that was funny bad.
Play this game, though. This game is great. Not perfect, but very very good.

There's a game breaking bug in the sixth major mission they've never fixed. If you get hit by it you may have to start your whole campaign over again to progress which may be hours of work. I know there are save files out there to get around the issue but it shouldn't still be a thing in 2026.

Otherwise this game is a wonderful challenge and a blast to play. Decent story too.

Just to sum up my experience:

Soldier customization is lackluster, story can be nonsensical with really boring segments (especially ending), but the main gameplay is excellent and really carries the game.

I'm not an "Aliens" fan, nor do I usually like strategy games, especially real-time ones, this game hit all the right boxes for me.

It's a squad-based strategy, so you can't just spawn units and zerg your enemy;
The skill-trees and classes are not born equal, but they're all interesting and fairly useful, at least at normal difficulty;
Gameplay is very smooth and has a nice flow - I'd describe it as an real-time RPG with stealth and scavenging elements;
Resource management is done well. It does not become tedious, but still keeps you on your toes;
While I generally don't like timers in games, the time limit is done well, so I'm not against it being here.

All in all, I'd say spending my time in this game was absolutely worth it, especially at the discounted price.

Fantastic game for fans of Aliens.
It's a very close system to the tabletop RPG so if you have played it or are interested.

You'll take control of a group of marines as they explore a few multilevel maps and complete objectives and scavenge resources. If you get spotted by a xeno, the rest of them on the map starts to move towards your position, so alot of the game is picking a spot to hide or planning your clean exit. As the game goes on you'll upgrade your gear ala Xcom and bring in heavier gear in order to deal with tougher xeno.
My favourite parts are when a marine gets knocked out and the xeno start to drag them into the dark corners of the map. You've either got to rush and risk the rest of the team or fall back and condemn them to getting facehugged.

This is a a great pick-up if you're into real-time tactics games similar to the ones made by Mimimi Games (Makers of the Desperados series among others (also, RIP)). This one is a departure from that particular formula, however, in that while it is real-time and encourages stealth, you aren't exactly discouraged from picking fights. It certainly behooves you not to, obviously, considering the resource management you have to do, but you'll have an easier time if you can deal with as many xenos as possible as quietly as you can.

The character progression felt very XCOM to me: your marines gain XP during a mission, they level up and unlock a class, new gear, and new talents. Any injuries and trauma need to be deal with in downtime between/during missions and you'll need to rotate marines to keep a fresh line-up. The devs did a good job making the different talents and items matter on both a team and individual level, so picking up new talents felt like I was actually making decisions that mattered. There are obviously certain talents that seem to matter more, but that's not really a problem that's easily solved.

As for the writing/story and acting, I'd say Aliens: Dark Descent feels something like a polished budget title. It's clear that the acting was done in separate locations and probably handled by separate people given line deliveries are a little awkward at times and how different characters pronounce certain names differently from one another (Is it Oh-tah-go or Or-tay-go? Book-ard or Book-erd?). Overall it's not much to ding the game for--it's still a workable story with plenty of lore to go through in collectable datapads.

The way the game handles the environments, lore, and overall Aliens setting is superb, arguably nailing all three of them perfectly. The ships, the environments where the game takes place (ship interiors, dingy mines, alien goop-infested rooms, etc.), the one-liners from your marines, the overall look-and-feel, all come through as a perfect extension of the Aliens universe.

The only really rough edges to the game, I think, are some minor annoyances I had:
* Certain menus use the escape key to go back, while others use it to go to the pause screen, meaning I'd have to physically click a "back" button on the UI instead of tapping my escape key
* Certain environments made the camera act a bit wonky, since it wanted to be at one height but there was some physical object of the map in its way so would have to jostle for position
* I had a few crashes throughout my campaign run which were annoying, but I was usually never set too far back thanks to auto-saves

Overall I'd say this is a great purchase if you'd be into real-time tactics games alongside the Aliens universe.

Aliens: Dark Descent hat mich deutlich positiver überrascht, als ich anfangs erwartet hatte.
Gerade bei Spielen mit großer Filmvorlage bin ich meistens eher vorsichtig, weil da oft viel Atmosphäre versprochen und am Ende nur Mittelmaß geliefert wird. Hier ist das zum Glück anders.

Was das Spiel für mich so stark macht, ist vor allem die Stimmung. Es fängt dieses bedrückende, dreckige und permanent angespannte Alien-Gefühl wirklich gut ein. Man hat selten das Gefühl, völlig sicher zu sein, und genau das passt einfach perfekt zu diesem Universum. Wenn die Lage langsam kippt, der Druck steigt und man merkt, dass der nächste Fehler richtig teuer werden kann, funktioniert das Spiel am besten.

Auch spielerisch hat es mir überraschend gut gefallen. Die Mischung aus Taktik, Squad-Management, Ressourcenknappheit und Stress funktioniert stark, weil man eben nicht einfach gedankenlos durchläuft. Man muss vorausdenken, Risiken abwägen und manchmal auch akzeptieren, dass ein sauberer Rückzug klüger ist als heldenhafter Unsinn. Für viele Menschen eine eher exotische Erfahrung.

Besonders gut finde ich, dass sich Einsätze oft wirklich angespannt anfühlen. Nicht nur wegen der Gegner, sondern weil das Spiel es schafft, Druck aufzubauen, ohne ständig nur auf billige Schockmomente zu setzen. Dazu kommen das passende Sounddesign, die gelungene Atmosphäre und dieses Gefühl, dass jeder Fehler die ganze Operation aus dem Takt bringen kann.

Natürlich ist auch das kein perfektes Spiel, aber für mich macht es deutlich mehr richtig, als ich vorher gedacht hätte.
Wer Alien mag und etwas für taktische Spiele mit echter Spannung übrig hat, sollte Aliens: Dark Descent definitiv eine Chance geben. Für mich eines der besseren Lizenzspiele der letzten Jahre.

Fantastic. This game delivers on a fantastic Alien experience that varies from stealth horror to action horror depending on how you play and the mission you are on. A blend of XCOM, darkest dungeon, real time strategy gameplay and solid story telling with horror tropes solid acting. Also you can name your colonial marines after your friends and watxh xenomorphs treat them to shreds. What's not to love? It had me stressed, panicked, hopeful, determined and full of glee as I mowed down xenomorphs with high level equipment. If you haven't give this a go. It's a lighter horror experience but it is still a horror game.

Le meilleur jeux vidéo ALIEN apres Isolation !
Tous les ingrédients qui font l'esprit des films sont ici reunis autour d'un gameplay tactique exigeant de haute volé.
Alien Isolation était absolument génial dans sa tentative de nous faire vivre avec la fille de Ripley un jeu a la Alien 1, Ici Dark Dscent dans sa structure ressemble fortement à Alien 2.
L'univers d'Alien est vaste et pas souvent bien representé dans le JV, pour ceux qui comme moi ont un affecte particulier pour les Alien des années 80 alors Dark Descent ne va pas vous decevoir

On a une base, on choisit et equipe ses Marines (le tout reste rudimentaire et simpliste il faut le savoir) et une fois en mission c'est la que le gameplay prend tout son sens. On gere son équipe comme un seul homme avec divers compétences et options, le tout sans y aller en mode bourrin sans quoi, le game over arrivera vite !

Graphiquement en full option 3240p DLDSR c'est vraiment un tres beau jeux et tres bien optimisé 119 fps locké cg à 80%

Le scénario on ne sait pas trop où le placé mais j'aurais tendance à dire avant le 1er film avec les découverte des Xéno. Sur ce point, le job est reussi, l'histoire est prenante et on a vraiment envie d'aller au bout aussi pour ça. Un bémol, l'absence de traduction FR qui dans les moments d'action gache la comprehension

La durée de vie c'est pour moi 32h soit les 12 missions + prologue et une multitude de "echap > charger partie" :D

Un bon 17/20 pour un moment de détente (ou de rage) vraiment bienvenue
En esperant d'autre jeu de cette qualité !

Игра точно заслуживает положительный отзыв.
Редкий представитель жанра RTT, не пошаговый, не стелс, не CoH (который тоже относится к нему), а именно бегаешь малой группой и выполняешь тактические задания. Атмосфера Чужих тоже передана, конечно не так детально как в стареньком Aliens vs Predator, где ты вообще шарахаешься в каждом коридоре от каждой тени (но всё же там шутер от первого лица). Есть сюжет с какими-никакими поворотами. Хорошо, что морпехи стрессуют в добавок к полоскам ХП.

Что могли бы докрутить (понимаю это не ААА проекто, но всё же:
Графика - хотя бы в катсценах она как-будто на уровне 2000 года. СК2 уже 20 лет скоро, а катсцены там лучше нарисованы и анимированы
Баги - они есть. То модельки трупов в воздухе зависнут, то режим "без страха" на всю миссию зависнет и тд.
ИИ противника - самое странное, когда идёт патруль из двоих болванчиков, убиваешь одного, второй даже бровью не поведёт и пойдёт дальше.
Геймплей к концу игры становится достаточно однообразным, но она к тому моменту как раз заканчивается. НГ+ вроде и хочется начать на максимальной сложности, без сейвов, но пока что-то нового в этой идее не вижу. Может доп геймплейные активности, вариативность прокачки персов или обвес на оружие внёс бы разнообразия.

I have played several RTS games and I assume this falls under the RTT (Real Time Tactics) instead, it is unique to me in that there is no inherent pause feature which would allow you to take as little or as much time needed to plan out moves to prevent losses. This game does utilize a 'slow' feature which is essentially allowing you to plan things such as placing sentry guns, using abilities/special weapons such as shotguns, mines or things like suppressive fire. In these brief moments you are able to sort of plan ahead but the enemy is slowed and not stopped so it does create a sense of urgency. So to me this is a refreshing take when compared to games like Company of Heroes and similar RTS strategy games. I have not seen any of the Alien/Predator movies besides Prey but the game itself is very fun and amongst one of my favorites of the RTS type. I enjoy the leveling system and perks and how it is utilized, the only downside I have seen thus far is honestly the voice acting. It isn't unbearable but you would think for a game of a major franchise they wouldn't cheap out on voice actors but I feel it is lacking compared to all other aspects of the game. Not enough to turn me off from playing it but to say this game isn't a 10/10. Worth playing on a good sale, I find it very enjoyable.

A little bit of real time squad combat with ability to pause to issue certain team command. But don't hang around sight seeing as the do hunt you down and attack in swarms. This make the game exciting and atmospheric and not for the faint hearted. There's also a squad resource to manage - do you carry more med kit or "command points" which allow you to issue commands like suppressive fire, shotgun blasts, flares for higher accuracy, etc. Because I am also faint hearted, I played on Easy and it made it more enjoyable for me. There's also that Tactical view with Barracks, Research tree, Inventory Management and Medbay management. Dare I say modern take on the traditional X-Com? Perhaps. It's clearly Aliens atmosphere though, so good times indeed.

So here's the long and short of it, I played this game through the campaign and new game +
I could have spent more time with it, sure, but this is my experience with the game:

- The polish, both in terms of things like pathfinding and enemy AI and pacing and mission design, it's a 7/10 overall, with some noticeable dips and incredible bugs.
- The story had some good premise, I can't help but feel like something was missed and the final piece just raises more questions for no particular reason. 6/10
- The atmosphere is there especially at first, the fanservice is there with some of the set pieces, some of which are actually cool. 8/10 due to not having staying power and for some other parts that are quite antithetical to the core concept
- Bugs, and not the fun to shoot kind, even the achievements are bugged, I played through this twice in order to complete the achievements, I literally hunted down the collectibles in all of the missions, checked every room, every map, got x/x on each mission, no dice. For the sentry gun achievement I'm quite sure I should have gotten it and it is apparently a known issue that was the result of one of the patches.

If you're an Aliens fan, there's some blood to squeeze out of this stone, if you're looking for a good game, there are other games out there that provide more fun.

Це найкраща гра у всесвіті Чужого, в яку довелось грати (окремо для мене стоїть Ізоляція). Але в будь якому разі це неймовірна тактична гра, яка занурює в атмосферу цього жахливого світу.
Якщо складність обирати вище середньої, то відчуття від занурення в цей світ лише збільшаться.
Окремо сподобалось, те що навіть команда крутих морпіхів, з крутими пушками не вистоїть проти роздратованого гнізда чужих. І стелс це дуже важливий елемент проходження.
Також рівень стреса, про який я на початку забував, що призвенло до психологічних вад у команди морпіхів.
В сюжеті є певні недосказоності (наприклад здатності Касандри), та все одноза сюжетом цікаво слідкувати.

This game is a banger. I was expecting a XCOM/Jagged Alliance type game (which would have been great, I love those games) and it might appear on the surface to resemble those games but it is it's own thing entirely. Definitely has that alien dread vibe.

It has some of the base building aspects of XCOM (on a much lesser scale) but the core of the gameplay is keeping your squad alive as you complete objectives. It's got a turn based system for combat but the entire squad acts as one and consume action points together. If a threat confronts them they will default to attack on their own without consuming action points. The combat is a blast but the key to the game is to try and avoid the aliens as much as possible and only use combat when you have to (which will be a lot).

This game is a gem and I'm not sure how it didn't get more positive press when it first came out. I'm coming to it now like three years later, my understanding is the game was a buggy mess on release but it's been fine for me.

Here is hoping for a sequel.

Aliens: Dark Descent ist ein intensives RTS: Du führst dein Marine-Team durch dunkle Anlagen, um einen Xeno-Ausbruch einzudämmen – bis aus Auftrag schnell Überleben wird.

Die Atmosphäre ist top: Motion Tracker, flackerndes Licht, Bewegung in den Wänden… und plötzlich geht alles schief. So muss sich Aliens anfühlen.

Gameplay ist fordernd: knappe Ressourcen, Stress, Permadeath. Jeder Einsatz zählt – Rückzug gehört dazu.

Wird mit der Zeit etwas repetitiv, bleibt aber konstant spannend.

Fazit: Druck, Taktik, Stress, nah an der Film-Atmosphäre. Genau das, was man von Aliens will.

Certainly! Here's a cleaned-up and polished version of your game review:

---

*Aliens: Dark Descent* delivers a tense, atmospheric experience that captures the essence of the Alien franchise in a way few games have managed. While it’s not without its flaws—some bugs are hilariously egregious (unit teleportation, stuck characters, and late-game softlocks caused by aggro triggers)—these issues, while frustrating, didn’t overshadow the core enjoyment.

Despite the technical hiccups, I found myself deeply engaged by the game’s strategic depth, immersive atmosphere, and faithful portrayal of Colonial Marines in the Alien universe. The tension, resource management, and squad-based tactics feel authentic and rewarding.

Ultimately, the game’s strengths far outweigh its shortcomings. I don’t regret purchasing it—especially on sale—and I appreciate how it successfully channels the claustrophobic dread and survival horror of the original films. A must-play for fans of the franchise, even with its rough edges.

Un muy buen juego de la franquicia de Alien junto a elementos de estrategia. Posee muy buenas mecánicas adaptadas a la perfección del universo de Alien, esto junto a la ambientación, el soundtrack e incluso los efectos de sonido dan una jugabilidad en general muy inmersiva y disfrutable. Permite re jugabilidad dando nuevos toques de experiencia asi como diferentes dificultades. Recomiendo totalmente que empiezen con la dificultad más baja si tienen 0 experiencia en este tipo de juegos de estrategia porque si podria llegar a frustar en muchas ocasiones. Si a pesar de jugarlo en lo más facil se les complica, el tema ya es del jugador, no del juego, ya que en mi experiencia lo considero muy bien balanceado.

Si bien el juego es de los mejores estrategia, parte de la experiencia se ve afectada por los bugs, que tiene una cantidad considerable. Desde objetos que se marcan en el mapa sin existir o ya haber sido tomados previamente, o hasta los soldados que se quedan atascados de manera aleatoria tras realizar muchas acciones (generalmente tras peleas contra hordas de aliens), y hablando de varias acciones, a veces el juego sufre de caidas de FPS repentinas por la toma de varias acciones en simultaneo o cuando salta de jugabilidad a cinematica.

En conclusión: Si te gusta el universo de Alien asi como los juegos de estrategia deberías probar este juego, probablemente te quedes enganchado a los primeros minutos.

Richtig gutes Spiel, für alle die Games à la X-Com mögen, knackig schwer - spannende Atmosphäre - taktisches Vorgehen und eine gewisse Frusttoleranz ist gefragt um Spaß zu haben.

Jogo muito bom. Pra quem gosta dos filmes de Alien, isso aqui é basicamente uma carta de amor pra franquia.

A atmosfera é muito boa e o jogo consegue capturar bem aquela sensação constante de tensão dos filmes, de que a qualquer momento tudo pode dar muito errado.

A gameplay também é legal. Controlar o esquadrão, gerenciar recursos e tentar sobreviver às missões cria vários momentos tensos. Em alguns pontos ela acaba ficando um pouco repetitiva, e o final achei meio arrastado, mas mesmo assim curti bastante a experiência.

No geral, se você gosta do universo de Alien, vale muito a pena jogar.

比较硬核向的一款RTS游戏，氛围感不错，线性叙事还是可以的，每次玩完也会因为代入感而感到紧张后的疲惫（虽然线性叙事都不适合短时间间隔内的二刷）。因为是无限生成敌人的设定，所以每一局都很有压迫感。即使小队后期装备和属性好起来以后，也不得不考虑每一局因暴露造成的敌海战术的性价比，主打一个适度暴露，边打边撤。里面的一些设定比较有意思，不合理的机制也在接受范围内，总体来说还是值得玩的。打折的时候可以入手

Game has a "special" save system where it saves at random moments. Or you need to build a shelter. However, the game is bugged so your marines get stuck in environment. So you win a tough battle only so you need to lose 30mins of your life since the last save.
Squad control is awful. No way to have your sniper go first so he has time to kill before getting spotted.
Stress mechanic is horrible. Like it was appended after level design as you get to fight waves and get high stress and than need to backtrack half a map to find a safezone to spend non-existant tools to relieve a bit of stress. And no way to do it twice in a safe room unless you spend additional tool and time (unless you reload the game).

I liked the story and combat but at some point I just couldn't tolerate the issues anymore.

Игра которая не может определиться чем она является - то ли она экшн про веселую нарезку алиенов, то ли сурвайвал хоррор с видом сверху и ограниченными ресурсами.

По началу, играя на кошмаре, с одним сейвом было очень интересно, игра даже держала в напряжении, а потом начала душить своими притянутыми за ушами экшн-сценами, бесконечными толпами врагов и узкими коридорами, например, можно часами ползать по коридорам увиливая от врагов но дойдя до цели задания может случится "скрипт-батталия" которая направит всех врагов на карте ровно к вам, превращая игру уже в тавер дефенс поскольку успешность таких пострелушек частенько упираются в количество имеющихся у вас турелей. Или еще один гвоздь в крышку абсурдности скриптов: по заданию взламываем и открываем дверь, случается кат-сцена в которой игра заводит нас в комнату на "замес" и вдруг, эта дверь, только что взломанная просто запирается, ладно один, два раза но это размазано буквально по всей игре, квинтэссенция бреда и абсурда это предфинальная миссия в башне.

Помимо сценарных проблем, игра имеет набор из различных технических, которые исправлены будут примерно никогда, а значит придется мириться с просадками фпс и багами, мой любимый это когда снайпером убиваешь яйцо с лицехватом но игра не фиксирует это и все равно от него к вашему отряду ползет полоска обнаружения, самого обнаружения по итогу не происходит, вроде, но лишнего тремора и раздражения добавляет.

Брать ли по полной стоимости? (2200р) - однозначно нет.
По хорошей скидке? - Возможно, если вы любитель потыкать человечками и способны приоткрыть окно.

Un RTS dal tono action ma dalle atmosfere assolutamente fedeli a quelle della prima trilogia di Alien: oscuro, ansiogeno, fatto di silenzi e bip sul radar. Al comando di una squadra di marines dovrete riprendervi da un naufragio interstellare e, al contempo, fare i conti con un'infestazione di xenomorfi, comandando la vostra squadra di quattro in mappe sorprendentemente grandi, perlopiù site in al chiuso e fatte da angusti corridoi.
La squadra si comporterà come un unico corpo e gli ordini impartiti verranno suddivisi tra i vari marines in base a vicinanza dell'obiettivo e disponibilità.
Un titolo sorprendente e che da giustizia a un brand che ha vissuto alti e bassi nelle trasposizioni videoludiche.

Cheers...kill it with fire!

This game fills a unique niche of combining XCOM-like experience with real-time games.

I wanted to like this game, really. However, terrible controls and pathfinding combined with stealth-based gameplay made me hate it. Like, why do you force a cautious playstyle if your soldiers can't properly move and hide around the map?

I'd recommend this game in case if you:
- are an Aliens fan, or
- want a real-time XCOM experience and ready to deal with technical issues this game has

Unfortunately, I don't fall into either

E' un gioco fatto tecnicamente bene senza bug, con un'ottima grafica e con una strategia complessa. La vera perla di questo gioco è il senso di ansia che si prova giocando. Consiglio vivamente la modalità "nessuno può sentirti urlare", piuttosto giocando con difficoltà inferiore. Attenzione: la difficoltà intermedia è già parecchio impegnativa, sconsiglio di giocare la prima partita a livello difficile senza sapere bene il funzionamento del gioco.

I'm a big fan of aliens series, and big fan of Alien vs Predator Extinction (PS2). the game itself serving as a prequel to the 1986 Aliens movie to aliens isolation. anyway lets talk about what i like and dislike below

PROS :
- Basic Gameplay is Fun, Tense
- Atmosphere, Offers a Variety of Aesthetics
- Risky Decision-Making
- Random Events Can Ruin Mission Progress (is this cons?)
- Alien vs Predator Extinction / XCOM vibe

CONS :
- Mechanics kindda ruin the experience (traum/wounded)
- the timer thing force player to rush things , punishing and make player do bad decision,
- kindda a bit janky
- bad writting

IS IT WORTH BUYING?

depends, if it on sale? yes. i would give this game 5/10 not terrible not good.

난이도가 많이 어렵다는 평가가 있었고 나는 게임을 그리 잘하지는 않아서 많이 망설이다가 세일 좀 많이 때리길래 한번 플레이를 해 보았다.

- 스토리
초반에 뭐 에일리언 이겨내고 행성 탈출하려는 것까지는 괜찮았는데... 후반부로 갈수록 뭔가 이게 뭐지?싶은 내용들이 등장해서 그냥 담백하게 행성탈출 이 이야기만 있었다면 더 괜찮았을 듯

- 게임
어렵다는 평가가 많이 있었는데도 그냥 어려움 난이도로 해봤는데 물론 엄청 어렵긴 했지만 그래도 혀를 내두를 정도로 못하겠다는 정도까진 아니었다.
다만 미션 하나하나 나갈 때마다 해병도 스트레스 쌓이는데 나도 스트레스가 쌓여서 연속으로 미션 2개 하기에는 조금 무리가 있었다.
뭔가 이 게임은 다른 평가에서도 많이 보이듯이 다 때려부수고 눈앞에 보이는 적들을 몰살하는 그런 게임이 아니다. 그렇게 하다보면 에일리언 공격성도 높아지고, 어차피 계속 젠되어 나오는 애들을 감당할 수가 없어진다. 진짜 그냥 내가 가려는 동선에 적들이 없어서 뛰어가면 내가 목적한 곳까지 갈 수 있는 그 타이밍 한번을 딱 노리기 위해 5분이고 10분이고 기다리기도 하고 몰래몰래 지나가면 할만하다.
무엇보다도 가장 최강은 센트리 건... 얘 3~4개랑 해병 기술 좀 섞어서 하면 여왕도 그냥 순삭이다.

- 기타
* 버그 가끔 있었음(컷신 재생 도중 갑자기 꺼짐)
* 저장포인트가 목표 완수 or 휴식 취할때 이렇게 두개만 되어서 저장이 잘 안 되는 게 아쉽기도 하지만 그것도 이 게임이 목표한 바라고 생각하니 어쩔 수 없지
* 이게 되는데 내가 못 하는 건지 아니면 그냥 원래 안 되는 게 맞는 건지 해병 한명씩만 움직이게 해서 저격으로 하나 조지고 돌아오게 하고 싶은데 무조건 분대단위로 움직이는 데다가 분대단위로 움직이는데 내가 조종하고 싶은 해병의 위치가 애매하면 시키고 싶은 행동을 시킬 수가 없음.. 조금 답답함

- 종합
스토리는 음...
게임성은 굳
추천함 재밌음. 근데 확실히 어렵긴 한데 일케일케 잘 해서 하면 못할정도까진 아님.

Одна из лучших игр по вселенной Чужих. Больше всего позабавили моменты сбора отряда из морпехов с негативными эффектами а именно, в отряде один пехотинец со слабым зрением, второй страдает от истощения после каждой вылазки, у третьего клинит оружие с определенным интервалом, а четвертый и вовсе испытывает приступы панических атак. Возникает вопрос, а по какому принципу отбирают в морпехи? Я люблю проходить игры на высоком уровне сложности, так что покомандовать отрядом убогих при штурме совершенных организмов или уничтожении королевы чужих, это отличный шанс испытать свои возможности, ну или бесславно помереть потому что не нашли ингалятор))))))

Great use of the Aliens licence. It does a lot with the corporate evils themes of the movies. It uses a lot of the same sound and look of the films as well. The gameplay is a bit like Xcom except with real time action. It has much more detailed bespoke maps. Those maps are continuous as well so you can stop and go back to base and return where you left off. In fact the tension in the game is keeping your stress (similar to Darkest Dungeon) in control as well as enough ammo to make good progress before retreating. As time goes by the aliens get increasingly plentiful making it harder. A fun balancing act.

The drawbacks are that there isn't a ton of variety. After the intriguing prologue there isn't a ton of surprises left so you do the same thing again and yet there's a couple dozen hours of gameplay to do. The first 5 hours is really engaging but it could have been shorter or mixed things up a bit more than it does.

Игровой процесс представляет из себя тактику - аркада с элементами пакмана во время стелса, преимущественно стелса над экшн, так как активные боевые действия накидывают проблем, помнится в дишоноред разработчик рекомендовал душить, а не убивать для лучшей концовки, что сводилось к 2 типов захватов
Ключевой элемент - время, дольше тянешь - больше проблем получаешь
Сюжет тупорылый, начали за здравие, ушли в сопли и семейные отношения, последняя миссия полностью поломанный игровой процесс

Alien: Dark Descent é um jogo extremamente bem construído dentro da proposta que abraça. Mesmo sendo um top-down tático em tempo real, ele consegue algo que muitos títulos maiores não alcançam: criar uma experiência verdadeiramente imersiva, progressiva e tensa do início ao fim.

O grande mérito do jogo está na forma como a gameplay transmite peso às decisões do jogador. A importância estratégica de cada personagem é sentida o tempo todo — posicionamento, habilidades, gerenciamento de recursos e leitura do ambiente não são opcionais; são essenciais. Os combates, muitas vezes inevitáveis, reforçam esse sentimento constante de vulnerabilidade. O resultado é um sistema que comunica com precisão o terror e a tensão característicos do universo Alien.

Outro ponto positivo é a progressão: cada missão gera consequências claras para a equipe, aumentando o envolvimento emocional com os marines. A dificuldade elevada e o ritmo controlado fazem com que cada avanço seja conquistado, nunca dado.

As atualizações também trouxeram melhorias perceptíveis na estabilidade e em ajustes de qualidade de vida, mostrando um cuidado contínuo dos desenvolvedores com o produto.

No entanto, há um contraste técnico evidente. Considerando tratar-se de um título com orçamento AAA, esperava-se um cuidado maior nas cutscenes. Algumas sequências parecem renderizadas em resolução inferior (próxima a 720p), e os modelos de personagens em cenas internas lembram produções da era Xbox 360/PS3. Esse desnível visual destoa bastante da qualidade da gameplay, que é moderna, detalhada e envolvente.

Outro aspecto que poderia ser melhor trabalhado é a personalização visual — uniformes e aparência geral dos personagens têm opções limitadas e pouco refinamento estético. Esse tipo de limitação seria compreensível em um projeto indie, mas soa deslocado em um jogo de grande estúdio que vendeu milhões de cópias. Jogando, fica clara a sensação de que essa área foi subdesenvolvida ou talvez comprimida por prazos de lançamento.

E, ainda assim, o jogo lança skins como DLC paga, algo que claramente poderia estar no conteúdo base. Infelizmente, é uma prática cada vez mais comum na indústria, mas aqui fica ainda mais evidente pela falta de variedade estética já presente no jogo.

Ainda assim, essas falhas não comprometem o brilho da experiência principal. Alien: Dark Descent continua sendo um jogasso; intenso, desafiador e, em alguns momentos, genuinamente estressante (no melhor sentido possível).

Não é um título para todos: é difícil, exige paciência e é claramente nichado. Mas dentro do seu gênero, está entre os melhores já feitos — especialmente para quem, como eu, aprecia profundamente o universo Alien.

Muitas pessoas já fizeram essa comparação, mas reiterando. Dos jogos recentes da franquia de Alien, esse é um dos melhores e super engajante. Mas vamos as comparações primeiro:

O [b]Alien Isolation[/b] é inspirado no primeiro filme da franquia alien (Alien: O Oitavo Passageiro) puxando para o terror solitário e perspectiva individual. O alien aqui é invencível, incansável, esperto e quer caçar você. É um conto de sobrevivência de um monstro.

Enquanto este [b]Aliens: Dark Descent[/b] é inspirado no segundo filme (Aliens: O Resgate), que é mais sobre um grupo de soldados que conseguem com várias armas ganhar de alguns aliens enquanto fazem as missões atribuídas a eles. É uma história de super soldados que vencem percalços na força do companheirismo e armas.

Dito isso, outra experiência que traz outras emoções vinculadas. Ainda é um jogo de terror, mas o jogo tem um sistema de persistência de tropas (que são randomizadas e com vários atributos específicos) que você vai treinando e evoluindo - isso, é, se ficarem vivas enquanto as missões passam. Mesmo com tudo no médio, o jogo traz os seus momentos de tensão e você realmente se sente a mercê daquele ambiente saturado de alienígenas sedentos por morte. Enquanto você vai passando pelos cenários, você tem que se esconder ou batalhar aliens ou pessoas, ao mesmo tempo que gerencia recursos de todos seus soldados como: balas, vida, escudo, ansiedade, traumas, kits primeiros socorros.

Essa quantidade de coisas a prestar atenção, o possível [i]permadeath[/i] dos seus soldados mais fortes - fazem do jogo um lugar muito tenso e emocionante, enquanto a história vai se destrinchando. Vale comentar também que o jogo possui um seletor de dificuldade muito generoso, que você pode individualmente colocar tanto em "modo história" ou "modo desafio" diversos parâmetros: vida do inimigo, dano, percepção, tempo de campanha, infestação do mundo, modo de save mais permissivo ou não. O jogo é bem acessível para todos os fãs de vários níveis de habilidade diferente.

Sobre a história, ela é muito interessante e é basicamente contada enquanto você controla sua tropa no mundo de Lethe enquanto os personagens principais conversam e dão ordens pelo comunicador. Em alguns pontos-chave narrativos as vezes você controla esses personagens principais numa missão especial.

Fora isso, esses personagens ainda tem o período entre missões que eles ficam na nave, em que acontecem eventos e você decide como gastar os espólios pegos durante as missões em Lethe. Investindo recursos em novas armas, novas tecnologias, treinando seus recrutas e resolvendo conflitos.

O jogo é muito divertido, até mesmo numa dificuldade mais "gamer adulto" no médio, permitindo uma tensão tranquila para quem não quer se descabelar. Recomendado para todos que querem uma história nesse universo e estão sedentos por mais, depois que viram as novas empreitadas como o Alien: Rômulo ou o Alien: Terra.

Claro, tem seus problemas de design e de performance, mas num geral é um jogo que você pode se perder horas para ver o que vai acontecer logo daquela última caixa que tem que coletar - daí um alien te acha, a colmeia começa a caçar, tem uma ofensiva em massa e todo mundo te mata. Realmente é um jogo de gerenciar estresse! Recomendado!
