One of the abilities that I really like is a stealth kill that allows you to throw a shuriken at a second enemy. Stealth kills can be chained across multiple nearby enemies. The game gives plenty of opportunities to climb above enemies to perform stealth kills. He also has a number of explosives at his disposal: grenades, C4, Molotov cocktails, and mines.Ī melee stealth option is a wise choice in certain situations. These can be easily swapped using a weapon wheel or pressing triangle (on the PS3) to switch to your last weapon. Rex is equipped with a pistol, futuristic machine gun, shotgun, sniper rifle, bow, and eventually the kill star. The shooting mechanics are pretty much unchanged from Far Cry 3. The game heavily uses collectibles like television sets, notes, and a salute to vintage ’80s VHS tapes. I do not really see myself coming back to play any of it, but there is a few hours’ worth of side missions, enemy bases to liberate, and a host of unlockables. Each of them rewards you with some sort of upgrade.īlood Dragon’s replay value is limited.
These include a combination of both predator hunting and rescue missions. It is your job to liberate the garrisons in order to unlock new side missions. The Omega Force controls much of the map – which is completely original – in thirteen different garrisons. Just like Far Cry 3, Blood Dragon is an open world first-person shooter. It remains a problem even after adjusting the brightness settings. The heavy use of dark colors obstructs your view, making it quite difficult at times to see where you are going. The highly stylized design is cool to look at for the first few hours but grows old after a while. The setting is dark and moody with a permanent purple fog hanging over the land. Set in a nuclear-ravaged environment with mutants and a military threat known as the Omega Force, Rex has to defeat the group’s leader and save the world. You play as Rex “Power” Colt, a cyborg who sounds a bit like Kurt Russell’s Snake Plissken in Escape from New York. The opening cut-scene, rendered to look like 16-bit SNES pixels, is ripped right out of the pages of Terminator. The game is set in a 1980s depiction of the future.
