The item editor allows you to change many aspects of items, but once there are addons on an item it'll stop showing up visually on the item, but will still be calculated in stats. Item Editor (Hover Over in Inventory) (WIP).I will be updating as I make further progress. It's not fun, it's not creative, and it gets old really fast.This is my preliminary table for the steam release of BIOMUTANT. It doesn't matter where you are, all puzzles are the same: you must rotate something and something else will happen in that room. Perhaps the most boring thing of them all is puzzle-solving. We never really HAD to use a new weapon or vehicle we just did it out of boredom. The AI makes no sense at all, and at least in our case, we couldn't find enough motivation to try new things as our weapons and strategy were enough to not care about who or what we had in front. Once you get comfortable with the controls, you can defeat whatever enemies you find regardless of their level or combat style. Crafting is useful, but not necessary the aura system is just a binary thing where you act according to your light or dark side, but it hardly feels like role-playing specializing on a weapon is okay, but it doesn't make a difference and you'll probably end up using all kinds of weapons anyways.Īs for other aspects of the gameplay, everything is equally shallow. Too many customization options? Maybe, but is that a good thing? In our run, we barely touched some of these because we never needed to. Out of combat, your actions matter too: there's a karma system that affects some quests and interactions, as well as an aura system that allows you to unlock Psi-Powers, and more. With every new level, you make your character stronger by adding 10 points to a given stat, but you can also unlock new special moves. You can change how the protagonist looks, you can change its strengths and weaknesses, you can change its preferred combat style, and once you start playing, you can craft weapons and gear too. The role-playing side of Biomutant looks complex on the surface, with too many things to customize.

If that's not enough to do, there's also Lupa-Lupin, the last "Meat Eater," Nemesis-like character that we encounter throughout the game.Īs you can see, it's an original story full of unoriginal ideas, and although it may sound fascinating and fun to play. It turns out there are 4 gigantic creatures, known as the "World Eaters" (or "the Puffs"), and we must defeat them with the help of specific characters who already have a plan. That means we'll have to fight against other tribes to conquer their outposts and capture their leaders-a nice way of bringing everyone together while the world is coming to an end! Oh, but that's not all. The region is divided into several tribes, and the protagonist will eventually side with one of them. Actually, that's not the only reason to fight. Although saving the Tree of Life sounds like the right thing to do, some people have other ideas to deal with this situation, and that's why we have to fight.
For a while now, a mysterious oil-like substance has been poisoning this tree, and that puts all creatures in danger. In this world, there's a giant tree that gives life to all things.
Let's start by saying that, instead of coming up with new ideas to revolutionize the genre, Biomutant just mashes up several mechanics from famous games (even from other genres than RPG) to create something as pretentious as shallow. We're finally in the Gameplay section, and here's where we can talk about all the reasons holding Biomutant back.
