Hell Let Loose Review Cons:

  • How to play is just a series of text pages.

  • It’s one of those games where you need to watch YouTube videos just to learn the mechanics and play style.
  • No feedback on deaths.
  • Daunting experience.
  • Text is oh so small especially in-game.
  • Nothing is very welcoming, just a cold opening menu then into a warzone.
  • Spawn camping is a thing and a common one at that.
  • No comms really kills it or if someone Lone wolves it.
  • Constant fps drops.
  • You constantly feel left out.
  • Several times I went in using a controller and I couldn’t bring up any menus to leave, edit settings or look at bindings.
  • Hard to pick out the enemy.
  • A lot of just running across an empty land.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
