Atomfall - FPS/Survival game with light rpg elements, set in post-apoc Britain

- You wake up with no memory, some bleeding *******

Night out in Soho.

Is there a reason why the phonebox is in such a stupid place? That wouldn't be normal in any period.

[Rand]

He says outer wilds

Isn't that a ***** game?

No. All the aliens have sexes and there's nothing weird about their behavior.
It has zero wokeness. It's not even one of the climate apocalypse games. The apocalypse has nothing to do with anyone. It's just happening and you have to accept it.
It has a bit of silly philosophy but it's muddled and nothing ideological. It's more Stoicism than anything.

[Rand]

Why the hell did you buy the deluxe edition for this?

The deluxe edition includes the eventual $20 add-on, so you're just paying for it early.

It's their gimmick. They showed it off in every trailer so far. Not sure if there will be any real explanation for it later in the game.

If the reason ends up being "It's England init lol"... well **** them I guess.

She He is from HK. I am in Mainland.

Is it true what is said about Mainland? On one hand they say it's the future technology-wise and on the other hand they say, the buildings are poorly constructed and people are packed into "commie blocks". The question is probably stupid but it's very interesting to know China from Chinese point of view. Also how did you know these western games? Is it popular in China?

I am not Chinese, I just live here.

Of course there are **** tons of people living on little space in tier 1 cities, but I wouldn't call it "commie blocks". These are either ultra modern complexes or at worst some 90s era communities.

Try to buy a house and also rent something, you can cut pieces out of your house since it's tofu dreg, you always got food that way lol

Did I play a different game? I remember that all the weird aliens on the forest planet or whatever kept using "they" as a pronoun when I tried it briefly, which quickly gave me a headache since it made all their dialogues incredibly confusing to parse.

It's a translation of alien speech, just like the extinct aliens. Of course it's weird. It's supposed to be. All the language is a bit off, I suspect on purpose.

Yes and no.
There's a reason why one would be thereabouts, yes.
But there's a problem. As it stands, it should be lower down to the left by some buildings.
It would make complete sense where it is if it were there beside a small dilapidated guardpost building.

This makes more sense:

It's there because British people are legally required to reference doctor who every 5 minutes or pay a fine

[rusty_shackleford]

Apparently this is on gamepass?
Still not convinced that giving away your game for 1/5th the price is a good idea.

Probably good for them considering what microsoft pays, but…

[NezahualDoomer]

Is this game good? I saw a bit of gameplay and looked very basic but maybe it's decent or actually good, is this like Fallout? is it an actual RPG or is jut another shooter?

[NezahualDoomer]

Apparently this game last 18 hours and it's pretty bare bones so avoid LMAO.

Fallout 1 is like 10 hrs long. Length shouldn't be an issue, not every game has to be some 200hrs long ubisoft collectathon with side activities and stuff. From the marketing materials, Atomfall is supposed to be a highly reactive game with lots of story branching, meaning it should have a lot of replay value.

I wish it was but apparently it's not, I enjoy the Way of the samurai games that are all about choices and replaying them with different desicions but I haven't seen that people say anything about this game being like that.

[1998]

Didn't have much too much time, but played a bit more. It's a weird game. Gameplay is obviously crap, but I appreciate some things such as free/open exploration.



Yes, they do not understand how ladders work.

I don't know anything about Dr. Who except that it's some popular TV show, but I assume that's a reference

Someone confirm/deny if there are niggos p+ty

Someone confirm/deny if there are niggos p+ty

I skimmed some gameplay footage from the vid I played earlier and there was a good deal of nigs

[Vergil]

It's a british developer hth

There are a few *******, also female melee outlaws/warriors, but not too many in 2025 context.

[Vergil]

also female melee outlaws/warriors

To be fair in 2025 I think we can assume any "female" warriors in games are just ******** now

They are authentically British, so yeah might as well.

[wndrbr]

Is this game actually out for everyone, or just for the paypigs? The numbers look very sad, even though on surface it looks like a Bethesda Fallout-like game.



Also somehow none of the big FPS-focused youtubers (like shillmanlives for example) have made their videos yet.
