This is pretty much as Q&P as these kinds of reviews get. If you liked
Rise of the Triad: Dark War, or just that classic FPS feel in general,
you're almost guaranteed to like the reboot. It's just that simple. The only thing that might be stopping you are the reports of poor game performance upon its release. That's fine, it held me back too. Well, as of the end of October, patch 1.2 was released along with the promise of less crashes and better framerates. The community seemed very pleased, so I couldn't hold back any longer. Though there's no question that this game is poorly optimized, the recent patch has made it manageable, and I personally am satisfied. While playing, I took a few screenshots that maybe could convince you further:
 |
| Intermission level screens make a return |
|
 |
| Apparently horsefuckers are masters at ROTT |
 |
| Duh, there's gibs |
 |
| Neato environments |
 |
| Dopefish lives!! |
In case you're wondering, multiplayer is about as fun and intense as you'd expect. Sadly, this game's troubled release hasn't been welcoming to a large community. It's still possible to find matches during most parts of the day, but it's unlikely this will become the Unreal Tournament replacement of 2013.
Right, so go buy it. The developers made this with all of the best intentions in mind, and with enough support, they want to resurrect the Blood franchise. Help Caleb live again.
