    6 years after it came out and I am still playing it over and over again. The combat in both hand to hand and vehicle is really satisfying and challenging. I’m currently replaying it again for the 4th time now and I can’t seem to get enough of it. There really is no other game to really compare this to which just makes me wish this had a sequel of some kind or that other developers would take on this idea of an open world game because it’s truly amazing

    This game is badass. Once I saw that you could use screws as brass knuckles and wear a bandana and grow a beard I was sold lol. And for the most part the combat is very fun.
    Wasn't a huge fan of how objects you could interact with were all highlighted yellow though. It's like they were trying to develop this game for people who are trying to rush through the game as fast as possible and have no patience for finding secrets and pathways on their own. There's no real satisfaction for finding hidden pathways, you can see them a mile away because they are highlighted yellow. Every single ledge, latter, zip line etc are all yellow and it just kinda takes you away from the game a bit.
    Driving your car is also enjoyable and once you start upgrading it and max it's hard not to get addicted.

    I've never played RFG, but this reminded me a lot of the Far Cry series with the open map, you go do missions at your leisure rather than have to do it as the story goes, liberate outposts (camps in Mad Max), the level up system, and its so underrated. There's a few glitches and bugs, but it's still a damn good game. I've only played about 2 hours and I'm hooked already.

      It's a pretty common criticism. It's so common they introduced an alternate, no-momentum movement mode in a patch. I get what people are saying. You do have to compensate for momentum when changing directions, but once you know this it's not hard to compensate and it makes his movement way more realistic looking.

      +gtabro1337 It seems like a lot of reviewers were looking for something different from what I've played and didn't get it.

    Love all the movies and was jazzed when I heard this was coming out. It's really become one of my favourite games on ps4. Arkham style combat both on foot and in the car (a lot like the APC pursuits in Arkham Knight). I usually end up regretting buying a game on day one, but this one really nailed the "feel" of Mad Max.

  • @aliesfahanian2103
    @aliesfahanian2103 Před 7 lety +51

    I put 35 hours in Mad Max and Im still playing it. The game completion is about 60% and I can tell according do this it would take about 60 or maybe a little more to make game fully complete. But the important point here is the game started to feel repetitive after 15 hours for me. Most of side activities are the same. There are some interesting side missions but they are very rare. And also the beautiful visuals will be boring because everything you see is desert and sand, and unlike GTA V or even Just Cause 3, there is very poor variety in environments here. Its worth trying, but be aware, you are not going to play it for weeks or months, unlike a game like GTA V, or Witcher 3 or Fall Out 4, so buy it on sale or something so it would be worth buying.

    • @aliesfahanian2103
      @aliesfahanian2103 Před 7 lety +6

      Luigi Thebaud There are some games that still surprise you after 30 hours of playing; I agree that they are rare, but I can actually remember some of them. Skyrim was one them for me, an experience which had something new for me even after 100+. Fallout 3 and 4 were both like that. GTA IV and V were the same and you could play beautiful side missions in both even after 30+.

    • @MegaMerdeux
      @MegaMerdeux Před 7 lety +3

      I'm not talking about side missions, I'm talking about game mechanics, Like playing a game for over 30 hours and stumbling upon something mindblowing, Give me a concrete example, excluding plot twists.

    • @aliesfahanian2103
      @aliesfahanian2103 Před 7 lety +9

      +Luigi Thebaud Im not sure if you notice the definition of "Open World" genre, which leaves player in an "Open" level and environment and would let him to experience new "Content" using some predefined "Mechanics" and features. Sure Im not talking about linear games like god of war or call of duty which would surprise player with different mechanics and features and scripted events every single mission; Mad Max is an open world game which should bring the feel of an open world game coz of my expectations, If I wanted to be amazed by mind blowing scenarios and features for every level, then I would pick some other games like GOW or COD which have different purposes for players and I dont expect them to amaze me more than 10 or 12 hours(In single player I mean). That why I expect to see more interesting side missions or plot events in Mad Max, because thats the only thing I would expect in an open world game.

    The controls on PC (keyboard and mouse) are more flexible than the controller-based play on consoles, at least that I've noticed, even when I play with a controller on PC. I've also found it much easier to turn the camera while driving, especially when taking corners while shooting behind you. Picked this game up on Steam for $6. Totally underrated game.

    I get what you mean when you say combat is like Arkham. When I first got the game, I was with my friend, and when I got into combat for the first time, he looked at the screen and goes, “Oh, nice man. It’s got that sort of Batman like fighting engine going on.” And it really does! Combat in this game is great!

    This one is so much fun. I've had the game for a few months and rarely played it after buying it on impulse just cause it was on sale from Amazon. I finally just got back around to it a couple of days ago and I'm amazed @ how well put together everything is gameplay wise and it's truly one of the best looking titles ever released on any platform. I nearly came on my self when the sudden lightning storm just rushed in and overtook my entire field of vision, filling my 55 in. screen with pure cinematic bliss and atmospheric euphoria. it's speakers rumbled with chest pounding thunder and pulled me in immensely. there's a lot to do as well. and you actually begin to feel an emotional bond with your grotesque, creepy, funny looking muthaphuka-sidekick Chumbucket as you realize just how important his role is and is key to your survival when he actually gets out, climbing onto the hood of your vehicle, patching it up, making repairs when you hop out. I hope they continue to make more games as beautiful as this.

    Six years later just started playing a couple weeks ago. Awesome game overall. The fighting is good, the harpoon is great, the world and immersion very good, especially for six years ago. Down sides; the storms that coincidentally always pop up when not around shelter, low on water and/or right after tough combat. It’s like Skyrim V in that it’s glitchy when trying to activate pick up or switch items/turn valves. Also, the mine field clearing missions get old. Of course an M 4 or automatic shotgun would be great, but the sawed off is powerful, if the ammo capacity could be better. I think it’s right up there with GTA 5 on a less busy scale. First game I have sat down with for hours since RDR 2.

    I come back to this game every couple of years. The action is just so satisfying. The hand to hand combat, the driving combat, the driving itself. You really get a true sense of speed and the collisions feel intense like they should but most games just don't get right. It's a pretty simplistic game in terms of design but everything is just so well implemented and it's just really fun to play.
    Btw turn off the vehicle roll helper. It makes the driving more satisfying because this assist setting ruins the immersion of the way the crashes play out. And if you can, play it on a Series C. It has fps boost and it accommodates hdr and it just looks and runs pretty great even today.

    I got so immersed into the game. I loved it, and the ending is satisfying and sad, that’s all I’ll say

    I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy this game, watched your review, and now I will, thank you.

    Just got it, remember when it came out I was heavy into siege at that time and just never got it because I was hyper focused on siege. Glad this game is still a solid game 6 years after release.

    TF????? Mad Max isn't based on Mars.......... It's based in post-apocolyptic Australia

    idk why but it reminds me of tomb raider

      +intothekey There's parts of it that are similar to the new Tomb Raider game and Uncharted, but the vertical movement is not one. I feel like that is one of the identifying traits of TR and Uncharted. That said, some of the better parts of Mad Max feel like some of the better parts of TR.

      +intothekey It is the graphics and the body motions. (Movement.)

      I can see where you're coming from. That's not a comparison I had even thought about but that definitely is a good one.

    Playing through this again on the pc this time, all settings cranked on a 4k tv, and let me tell you it's one of the best looking games you will see! Even compared to the latest games.

    Got it! Played it for the first time last night, after hours of playing Fallout 4. I only played a few hours but I really like this game. It's loads of fun that the fighting in this is amazing. I like it better than driving. Thanks for the great review and keep them coming. I'm subscribing!

    I beat this game, and found all the top dogs, except for one
    I spent years searching
    then after giving up, I suddenly found a hidden passage, took the new route and found him
    *a genuinely wonderful experience with maxed out stats and gear*

    You are so right about how underrated Red Faction: Guerilla is and how it parallels this game in some way. Great vid!

    I got it some time ago but didn't have time to check it out and this week I decided to dive into it - now I agree with every word in this video and this game is very much an extension of the films to explain the world and allow to immerse yourself in it.
    The gameplay mechanics was familiar to me because of the Batman Arkham series which it resembles and the world is open to roam - so what if it's not as interesting or full of activities like GTA ? that's the point - it's a post-apocalyptic barren world ! who needs tons of activities - I want to suck in the feel of it not get distracted with something happening every second
