RoboCop: Rogue City - new game from Terminator: Resistance devs

[Azalin]

Eurogamer reviewer angry that Robocop isn't virtual signalling and screaming ACAB during the game. Reviewers seems angry as well that there's no SJW shit in the game

Eurogamer Review

The game's adherence to the structure and ideas of the original films also has some unfortunate ramifications. For example, the portrayal of Detroit PD as honest, hardworking blue-collar workers struggling against budget constraints sits a lot less comfortably in 2023, when we know US police budgets are vastly overinflated compared to other public sectors, and that issues like corruption and racism are endemic within policing in a way that has little to do with corporate ownership.

To be clear, I'm not saying RoboCop should be wandering around Detroit shouting ACAB. Rather, in its strive to mimic the anti-corporate satire of the film, Rogue City misses an opportunity to ask other, more pertinent questions, like how does a cop programmed to follow the letter of the law fit within a policing system that itself often doesn't?

So a glowing recommendation from Eurogamer after all

Careful, there are endgame videos in YouTube already. It confirms at least that there are C&C of some sort, as there are multiple endings.

The "main story" ending is always the same I believe, but (like in Terminator: Resistance) your dialogue choices as well as how you solve some crimes (mainly the whole "protect the public trust vs uphold the law" aspect) do affect the final fate of some NPCs, as well as the outcome of the mayoral elections for Detroit. One of the candidates in the elections is Mayor Kuzak from RoboCop 2, btw.

I didn't really pay attention to the game's achievements while I was playing but I just checked my profile out and found out that there's a dedicated achievement for the first time you shoot someone in the dick lol

Hey, so this game is pretty good, yeah?
Still could've stuffed more weapons in there though...

It's really really missing a gib system, something like what Soldiers Of Fortune had would have been perfect

Gman has really become another generic Youtube reviewer.
Didn't take long.

Dude also praises shit like BLOOD but bitches about difficulty/hitscanners and when you see his gameplay it's like someone's grandma is playing an FPS for the first time.

 

[Zlaja]

It feels a bit weird rampaging through Detroit and wasting an all-white biker gang, trying to save a black cop, while another black cop is talking to you through the comms.

Spoiler

Still 2023 GOTY

 

[Feyd Rautha]

Haha gaming media is giving it mediocre scores. Probably a pretty good game then. The same treatment as Terminator: Resistance got.

The same retards who pan this game for having a "weak narrative" are the same retarded apes who praise the narrative of boring trash like Alan Wake 2.
