Before Update 29 i would have absolutely said yes but not anymore. The update put a lot of things in the game the us long time fans didn't ask for. It also ended up breaking a lot of things in the process. The game is really buggy now and over-censorship of names is huge. This is a M rated game with large amounts of gore but god forbid you have the words Chicken, Black, Fat and many others words in your profile name. PSVR2 crossplay has made the game a majority of children under the age of 14 screaming in their mics in every lobby. Until the numerous issues are fixed, I CAN NOT recommend this game anymore.

Let me start of by saying the game is fun. If you just take it at face value, it is fun. The puzzles can take some thinking to get past and the combat is engaging. Having said that, there are bugs. Random boxes on the ground or a corner of a wall might cause you to be stuck in place if you touch it. Some lootable cases will not give you the icon to loot them even though your scanner shows them to you. Same goes for some bodies. Another gripe is that in the cut scenes, faces and expressions will not always match the way someone is speaking. Someone could be shouting but their face if perfectly neutral. Overall nothing game breaking. Now to the controversy. If there Russian propaganda in Atomic Heart? Yes. It is there and it is not hard to find. If you are a Russian speaker like myself, you will notice it much easier. There are certain audio logs in the game that are only in Russian and not subtitled. These hold quite a bit. Take that how you see fit. All that aside, i would recommend this game to have fun and kill time.

In Summary:
Pros: Fun gameplay with decent story and good puzzles.
Cons: Yes there is Russian propaganda but easy enough to ignore. Bugs.

Awesome game with a long story

Fun

I really enjoyed the game. Good amount of realism and very fun when you have communication with other people.

Some bugs but still very fun to play.
