Oddworld: Soulstorm Enhanced Edition Reviews

Love this game

The cutscenes are great and the game looks good but gameplay is damn difficult because of how clumsy and dumb the followers are . The checkpoints are always placed so you need to scavenge for trash and craft over and over again if you fail. The original ps1 version has superior gameplay.

The game design has a couple of oversights but overall is very nice and worth the story.

Hated the game when I played it on launch on Epic Store. Wanted to give it another shot, and I had a blast.

Magnificent. A worthy successor to classic games! Pros: + Very interesting story + Graphics and animations + Excellent sound and music + Attractive world and lore Cons: - No Quick Save (it needed, cuz u won't to make so many repeated actions) - Bad intructions for PC contorls (it take a lot of time to understand right keys) Conclusion: * Game is awesome - graphics, story, sound, cinematics, characters - all is very nice! * In general gameplay is good except lack of tutorial anf keybindings info. * Quick saves is a must have (maybe some harcore mode in the future for no qs or something? But in casual game it is needed. PS: Inhabitants! We are waiting for next chapters...!!! -_-

You had one job. Give us a competent remake of Exoddus alas New and Tasty. Instead you cooked up this unsightly abomination that bastardised the story, feel and setting of the original game. I couldn't even suffer 30 minutes of the tutorial before shutting the game off. If you are looking for a good successor to New and Tasty, this isn't it chief.

I was really excited to play this having loved everything else in the Oddworld universe, but I gave up halfway through the tutorial because the button prompts for the Xbox controller and there is absolutely nowhere to change your settings to have it show what the keyboard equivalent would be (though there is a keyboard mapping settings page) so you basically have to button mash random keys to try and find the right one. In the end I couldn't figure out whatever the keyboard equivalent of RB/LB was to scroll through my inventory properly and I got so irritated I just closed the game. How ridiculously lazy are the developers that they couldn't add in keyboard commands for the PC release? I may come back to this at some point but having read the other reviews about how tediously dull the gameplay is I don't think it's worth it.

i got through the tutorial and i saw the writing on the wall almost instantly. The developers have changed a working formula for the worse. This is NOT the exodus game we all love and remember from the playstation one days. They turned abe into an action 2D scroller. And whats worse?! With the previous "New n Tasty" game they NAILED IT! They nailed the formula of bringing the playstation one game to the present. They have chosen NOT to do that with Exodus! Instead they chose to go with...what ever the heck this game is...It may as well have been an entirely new game. And who on gods green earth wrote the SCRIPT?! The intro was literally nothing more than abe and the mentor saying "Use your voice." "No. we are free now." "Use your voice." "no." "yes." "no." "yes. "no." "yes. By the way your no longer safe here." Did i turn my back on the game before i gave it the chance? Yes. Thing is, Im not going to give it a chance because i can see where its going. And it appears judging from the other reviews... i may be right... Seriously Oddworld? No scrabs and no paramites? Your really going to tear out two of the most important pillars of the games series??? The two most iconic animals the ODDWORLD UNIVERSE has to OFFER that was part of the exodus back in the playstation one days??? Nope. No...What a waste...What a disaster for the older players who grew up on these games. What an insult. What a tragedy... Developers you were SO close to nailing bringing the games we loved to the modern age. THIS! CLOSE! And you dropped the ball with Exodus/soulstorm and it shattered like glass.
