Isn't it a bit of a...silly thing to expect a fully implemented story in a clearly and previously announced alpha state, though?
I reckon your critique would be acceptable if the game were at the very least in Beta (and even then, with limits).

Wow, you are straight up dumb, you can buy the game whenever you want to help devs make it successful. Plus, I really don't care if the game looks like bioshock (since people complain too much), its still a good retro style game. Besides, people compare dishonored to bioshock, and it's still overwhelmingly postive, not a copycat of bioshock. Yes, the game IS worth buying for testing to see if theres any bugs or glitches to help the devs (like I said), you should rewrite your review again.

I reviewed this game as is :) sorry to anyone salty about that, but rn its not worth the buy. And its very similar to Bioshock lol, for example... wearing a metaphorical mask in society, the class distinction between the poor and rich, substance abuse to survive everyday life, listening blindly to authority... it has very similar art and themes. The game, as it is, is not worth buying. Games in alpha that don't revolve around story or are multiplayer are worth alpha testing, but this game is not.:steamfacepalm:

"How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

The game's story, apart from certain moments, will not be included in the Early Access version of the game. By "the story" we mean the narrative areas, gameplay and cutscenes that make up a traditional single player story."

TL;DR : you're an idiot.

This entire review is complaining because this is its Alpha testing phase and the reviewer is upset because its not a finished. Most of the back-story (and what little is released about the plot) is hidden in the environment and subtly unlocked as you interact with it. Id say come back in a year or two when the game is released and the wiki is full of lore and step-by-steps.

"Pro: You have to learn the game on your own.

Con: This game doesn't explain anything to me! :("

The only similarity between this and Bioshock is they both feature utopia/dystopia environments. Their setting's are themed around this loose idea yet has been executed in completely different ways. Its like saying any game with any style of zombie in it is just ripping off Resident Evil... which would just be ripping off the earlier released Zombies Ate My Neighbors... which would just be ripping of the earlier released Zombie Zombie.

Id avoid Early Access bud.

Then why would you play it in the first place if you knew its alpha? You could at least report this stuff to the devs instead of making a review about it.

Good review but you accidentally labeled cons as pros.
