Ad Infinitum Review - The Final Verdict

[@0verWay]

That weapon POV FOV lol. Goofy long Slenderman arms

[@DommoDommo]

Haha finally I can self insert...

[@Meninx87]

and yet it's more realistic than 99% of all fps out there

[@ceoofgrind8101]

I adored it honestly. I think people who didnt might not have an appreciation for atmosphere and storytelling. This isnt a "horror" game in the traditional sense. Its one nightmare which makes it amazing. And honestly? I did get spooked a bunch of times lol so well worth the playthrough. Through the first half of the game i was walking incredibly slow, fearful of everything. That fell off a bit when i realized that there wouldnt be tons of scares but the atmosphere more than made up for it. The most beautiful part was in No Man's Land with the gas. The artillery going off in the distance, the wind blowing through the barbed wire. Chefs kiss.

[@Brzii]

the words "copious" and "nothing too crazy" don't belong in the same sentence

[@DerangedCoconut808]

what is with the beef jerky arm?

[@aliahpersonous2893]

I think it could’ve used more active scary elements in the manner parts but the fact that the story is of a deeply traumatized family nothing is actually trying to hurt they player is nice

[@Masked_ghsot_riley.offical]

I mean it's psychological horror not meant to be a jump scare type game the voices, calls, withering home and apparitions are all meant to play on the mind not to be cliché or horror film like

[@DeadxReckon]

Why aren't you showing the things you're talking about? Isn't that why it would be a video instead of just an article to read?

[@obsidianzarok2361]

Blown away by the story in this game I really liked it. It is janky but I like a good creepy story and this nailed it.

[@Klausenburg_Bro]

you didn't play this game. you stopped at the first third of it and gave your verdict. i do not respect that, as the game gets not only more intense, but its story gets better as well later on.

[@ld7724]

Yes lousy review

[@rjistheman]

im sure its an okay game, but boy do i know all these reviewers would rather be playing Baldurs Gate or Starfield rn

[@greyhoodie1012]

a decent amount of ww1 horror games coming out ngl i’m rockin with the genre so far

[@StealthyshiroeanHumbleReviews]

Besides this and Conscript...what are some others? It sounds like a really neat setting for horror but those two were the only ones I heard of. And, for me, Conscript doesn't really scratch the horror itch since using the war itself as the horror.

[@greyhoodie1012]

@@StealthyshiroeanHumbleReviews amnesia came out w bunker around the time i commented this that’s another one

[@StealthyshiroeanHumbleReviews]

@@greyhoodie1012 Oh yeah! I forgot about that one. Been on my wishlist forever. Thanks for the reminder!

[@unreal4010]

You guy's don't understand why this game was made. It's to show what those soldiers went through.

[@MothersOfMars]

The reviewer is completely aware of that. They say so multiple times through the video

[@Shorty_Hutch]

Is this game similar to layers of fear where it's all psychological and no danger?

[@Ya-got-boyf]

This just makes me want to go play Amnesia : Bunker again.

[@Philosophical24]

While I preferred Rebirth, I will agree that Bunker had a scary setting

[@paddy1505]

Bunker is a fantastic game. One of this year's best imo

[@dontmatter4423]

Bunker is actually the best in the series and probably the best in its genre, bc it has good gameplay

[@paddy1505]

@@dontmatter4423 Agreed. I was never a fan of the other games and hate the just run and hide concept of gameplay. This uses weapons and gear in a clever manner which is still intense and restricted.

[@claycheese3007]

Is this coming to ps4?

[@peloquin5652]

no only SeriesSX / PS5 / PC

[@lowerclassbrats77]

This game appears inspired by the WWI horror film Deathwatch.

[@amirhoseynpuyan4936]

This game is so underrated

[@peloquin5652]

the game is actually amazing

[@TransoceanicOutreach]

You should probably learn how to say the phrase 'ad infinitum' before you review a game based on that phrase, lest you come across as a bit of a spanner.

[@DoomsdayMayBeOkay]

There are so many mediocre games in this style in the market, i wonder what made you guys decide to give this one a full review if its just another unremarkable game on the pile?

[@DaHobbyGoblin]

The writing, story, and VA work put this above most of those others. This game has obvious care and thought in it, just not quite the game dev skills to do that justice

[@lowerclassbrats77]

To inform people of this.

[@Masked_ghsot_riley.offical]

This isn't mediocre if you don't understand it's meaning then you won't understand its true beauty

[@gambaownsus]

[@MoistureMagnet]

You lost me at “copious amounts of backtracking”

[@SladeL]

It is not a shooter but a psychological horror. I am glad it is not a shooter, it would have been boring.

[@oliverwilliam6931]

This game is a walking sim

[@SladeL]

They can be great games. @@oliverwilliam6931

[@Masked_ghsot_riley.offical]

​@oliverwilliam6931 if you don't understand the concept of a game based around story driven psychological horror then you should go play something else this game is meant to show what vets remember war as not your Romanticized glory and honor always action packed type shit

[@SladeL]

@@Masked_ghsot_riley.offical well said.

[@NexusBreeze99]

A huge shame that there is no combat…

[@Masked_ghsot_riley.offical]

Why? It's not meant to be a fps it's meant to be a psychological horror game about the pain and suffering of war not a Romanticized action horror game

@@orfeas2335 I understand. And there is no map. You'd have to draw one yourself, but then if visual memory is not good, that is also difficult to do, if not impossible.

[@langleymneely]

Isn’t it pronounced Ad in-fin-EYE-tum? It doesn’t rhyme with millennium. Unless the makers say otherwise?

[@sammyflinders]

Sure is.

[@PotatoJonson]

The developers pronounce it the way the reviewer does.

[@sammyflinders]

@@PotatoJonson then they also don't know how to pronounce it. It's not really a subjective matter. It's either pronounced correctly or incorrectly. It isn't like they made up a word like "Returnal" for example.

[@PotatoJonson]

@@sammyflinders actually it’s pronounced differently in different languages and dialects. Like aluminum or vitamin.

[@sammyflinders]

@@PotatoJonson Incorrect. Also, "aluminum" is spelt like this in American English and hence that changes it's pronounciation from the way it is spelt "Aluminium" in other parts of the world.
