The Surge 2 Review "Buy, Wait for Sale, Rent, Never Touch?"

Came here cause i saw surge 1&2 in a bundle for the low low price of 8.99$ might just pick them up. Thanks man.

truly one of the reviews of all time

💩

This game sucks

Metal swag🤘

I love Dark Soules & Co. (Nioh 1 and 2 love them!) BUT NOT Sekiro. I hate to parry. I'm the fast paced dodge type of player. With that said Surge 2 sucks because you have to parry a lot or you have a WAY harder time near to impossible fighting some bosses.

I hated the first game HOWEVER! I loved this game

Love this game till the save file got corrupted on PS4. Then realized you can revert the file back to the last medbay. Almost lost it! 🤣

Karek talks like spin kicking a guys head off is cool when one of the spears kills has you stab then like 5 times agross the waist and kick their whole CHEST off

I genuinely have a hard time pinning down what exactly it is about this game that makes it look so unbelievably boring to me when something like Mortal Shell meanwhile instantly has me intrigued. It seems like its doing the right things, but it all just seems so... soulless, ironically?

He tells his reviews with Metaphors, comparisons and way too many extra needless words. Reminds me of Family Guy cutting to random scenes after Peter explains something or says a joke lol. Everything is, well he broke the guy in half, like Hulk Hogan in the 1980s on the biggest PPV ever at the time doing one of the highest flying leg drops off not the first but the third turnbuckle bringing the match to and end with fireworks. Lol does it steadily

Great review man, too funny. I waited and only got this game today on sale, only £12.50 on the ps store, delux edition too

Bravo très bon test ! In the "soulsborne genre", i think the Surge 2 have the most noticeable gamelplay with the Nioh serie.

I got it on Game Pass (XSX, locked 60fps so, performance not an issue), and man am I having a blast. I may not think much about it or of it while I'm not playing it, like I did a Sekiro for instance. And visually, yes, it's far from brllliant. But the combat gameplay, the skills and weapons progression, risk/reward factor, the learning curve... frankly on point for me. When I'm playing I'm focused, I want to stay in the game and it totally grabs me.

dude I was expecting this game would have more updates and more things into the game and new maps why does the surge decides to just release the game and jus let die so fast no wonder why the surge community is so trash

This looks awful. The first one was awesome, but this one... Now there's no reason to explain away not having guns, or why the equipment now looks like cyber punk stuff, instead of industrial.

They lost the plot. Not to mention the brightness of everything.

Love this review. You nailed it!

Wait, how are “ I don’t think I ever died once playing the game” and “intense corpse runs” not mutually exclusive...?

Bravo Karak. Nioh x bloodborne - budget = the surge 2

I was able to pick Up the Surge 2 at Gamestop for 8 bucks. Its still on sale and a great addition to your collection. PICK IT UP!!!!

If this was an open world game like witcher it would be really awesome but again a shitty gameplay

Steam sales are going on right now, thanks for putting this review out in the world. I played the first Surge a long while back, so I think i'll invest into this one.

It's a shame there's performance problems. The surge 1 is the only action Game this generation with good visuals and 60fps locked on the PS4 pro. It was a joy to play It

Cool game mr johnny sucks tho

After playing this game for a little over 10 hours, I gotta admit you weren't joking when you said this game's levels made fractal patterns look basic.

buy on it steam sale. at least u wont feel the pain on your wallet

I've played Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne and The Surge games, and The Surge 2 has the most entertaining combat for me. Because of these games, which prioritise gameplay and precise combat, it's getting harder and harder for me to enjoy other rpg / action games.

Just got this on gamestops pro day sale for 6 bucks CIB. Thank you for such an in depth review. Excited to get around to it in the coming weeks

beat the first boss after a hour of dying alot and thats where i got annoyed because i get annoyed easily i will come back it to soon

Imagine name dropping Lords of the Fallen before Nioh, wut?

I kinda wish they went deeper into the "Cyberpunk" elements of the world. From what I remember Surge 1 was closer to what I prefer.

(my thoughts on 2 are based on just this video though)

Why can't you just cut their parts off after they've died? Who came up with that idea?

God I love these games.. Demon Souls with a science fiction twist!!! I hope they make a 3rd after Lords Of the Fallen 2.

The passage ways are ALWAYS attatched or somewhere near your spawn, so you can have a checkpoint every once in a while. Is it really not that obvious? He goes into so much detail but cant realize every passage is there for a reason? Also the graphics are fine, if your computer cant handle it then turn them down. 😂

Gamepass

It’s on Xbox gamepass

Huh, so now instead of being in some way related to the interesting Sci-Fi Apocalyptic story about AI gone mad and good intentions horribly gone wrong with just a tease of Lovecraftian Horror you're....uh, some burk who gets dragged to a prison?

....

I don't like this.

Are there pile drivers/steak driver weapons in this game?

Thank you very much for this review. I'm still going through my first playthrough of the first game and I LOVE it so much! You definitely helped my decision.

Just picked up the limited edition for 24 bucks hopefully I have a blast playin it.

Fantastic game.

Why do you keep saying "GRAPHICALLY" its like the "apparently" kid

this review made me not want to play the game when they say its even more labyrinth levels

Parrying ?! No time for that jazz hit and run tactics are way more efficient... I use fists class weapons so it's block ,quick series of punches with good enoght slam, and damage

This is just 22 minutes of tongue twisting and hyucks. Solid.

I find those darksouls-like a waste of time. Too difficult, repetitve and frustrating just to advance an inch towards completing the game. Pass.

This game lost me the moment he said "save point."
No thanks.

Do you want the answer as to why the beginning levels are unsatisfying in games nowadays? There is a good reason. Has to do with minimizing refunds. Steam is the leading distributor for games and offers refunds if you have less than 2 hrs play. Devs have caught on that if a game doesnt play well it will get refunded so now they make sure that the beginning hours run smoothly at the expense of technical prowess. Before steam it was typical to see the beginning of games shine to show off the eye candy. :)

No code vein review? :(
