Full of intriguing setups and wickedly good payoffs, The Rise of the Golden Idol is more of the same winning deduction formula but with a fresh spin that shakes up the foundation enough to feel strikingly original once again.

There are so many other great stories here. That much shouldn’t be a surprise after any experience with the first Citizen Sleeper. Those with a hunger for hard sci-fi have a lot of great stuff to chew on with threads of galactic war, human consciousness, survival, rebellion and so many more all woven together through a lively, messy, colourful array of communities. By the end, at least in my experience of it, Citizen Sleeper 2 is a starkly prescient story about finding your freedom, and fighting for it. But even more than that—for the citizens of The Belt, for your crew, for the Sleeper, and for those playing—it’s ultimately one about moving forward. Recapturing the lightning in a bottle that was Citizen Sleeper for another go around was surely a dice roll of its own, and one that I’m glad Jump Over the Age took the risk on. Don’t sleep on it.

Come avrete capito, vi consigliamo Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector senza esitazioni, soprattutto se amate i giochi di ruolo cartacei. Durante la nostra prova, il sistema di gioco si è dimostrato capace di assecondare le nostre scelte, facendoci sentire davvero parte dell'avventura, il che è il complimento maggiore che si può muovere a un titolo del genere. Forse si poteva fare qualcosa di più dal punto di vista tecnico, ma immaginiamo che Jump Over the Age non abbia voluto forzare troppo da questo punto di vista, per non finire nel loop infinito dell'aumento dei costi di produzione, preferendo semplicemente migliorare l'originale dove possibile.

Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector does not stray too far from what made the first one a cult hit, but it doesn’t need to. It tells a rich and poignant story about the complex nature of control on one’s self when that self is a machine that can be rebooted and hacked, finding and enriching community in the face of overwhelming odds, and expressing personhood both to oneself and to others. It’s visual novel-like presentation is heavy on reading and dice rolling, so its not exactly pulse-pounding, but the retooled character classes and stats, new crew missions, and stress mechanics provide just enough feedback and create a sense of precarity throughout that it stays engaging.

Vous l’aurez sûrement compris avec le nombre de mentions à Sniper Elite 5, ce Sniper Elite : Resistance peine à nous proposer quelque chose de nouveau en dehors des défis de propagande plutôt pauvres. De fait, les joueurs déçus de l’épisode précédent ne trouveront pas leur compte ici, au contraire des fans sans grosses attentes. Sniper Elite : Resistance propose à l’identique aussi bien les points positifs que négatifs de son ainé. Cela inclut d’un côté le plaisir du feeling au fusil de précision et le level-design riche en opportunités des niveaux, mais également une technique datée, une narration anecdotique et une IA aux fraises. Sniper Elite : Resistance nous avait déçu lors de nos essais précédents, et c’est là aussi quelque chose qui n’a pas changé.

Sniper Elite: Resistance is a modest retread for the Sniper Elite series, rather than an exaggerated goose step forward. A near total lack of innovation makes Resistance seem like little more than a Sniper Elite 5 remix, rehashing everything from the skill tree to the traps and enemy types, and serving up some sniping sandboxes that are for the most part a bit too similar to locations that have featured in the series’ prior entries. Its bonus propaganda missions are fun but fleeting, and its X-ray kill-cam still blasts balls and brains to bits but no longer blows my mind. Those only just getting on board with the series will undoubtedly find a bit more to like, but I’d argue that on balance, Sniper Elite 5’s superior story sandboxes and otherwise similar feature set makes it a much better buy even three years on from its release. Sniper Elite: Resistance is a solid stealth-based shooter, but it fails to set its sights high enough in order to pull off a truly spectacular execution.

There’s still plenty to be grateful for if you’re a returning Sniper Elite player. Many fan-favourite game modes return, including the abundance of multiplayer options and the Axis Invasion mode that allows you to infiltrate another player’s campaign to hunt them down. The only new mode introduced here is Propaganda Missions, where-by recovering hidden posters across the main campaign unlocks the same maps with time sensitive scenarios that reward faster results. It’s a nice diversion that adds a few extra hours of gameplay, but from the perspective of a new entry in the series, Sniper Elite: Resistance remains light on new ideas and still at full price despite recycling much of its smarter concepts.
