Lost In Random Review - The Final Verdict

[@jaysonclark2203]

Finally a new game that has some truly unique and original settings and tones. Feels like a video game more than a simulation like most games try to be now

[@Brownaut1993]

There was NO marketing for this game. I'm only just now hearing of this game

[@Th33anomaly]

PlayStation briefly mentioned it in one of their State of Whatever events, but you’re right other than that I haven’t seen much about it and only knew what it was bc I check the psn, USeshop, and Microsoft store often looking for something new to play.

[@InnerRise]

You had to watch the game conferences to keep up with it and gaming KZbin channels. You have to do your due diligence. There was marketing and promotion

[@Th33anomaly]

@@InnerRise I mean that’s not very effective marketing if you have to search for it, right?

[@InnerRise]

@@Th33anomaly That's with everything . Gaming commercials on tv are few and far between unless you're Uncharted/God of War/Kingdom Hearts/Mario/etc. Everything is online and you have to be involved in those channels to know what's going on. We dont get gaming magazines mailed to our houses on a subscription anymore. That's how I use to get all my news as a kid and still that was me seeking it out AND PAYING FOR IT. (My mom paying for it)

[@samg.yupsal87]

The only marketing I knew for this game was from a Nintendo direct. And was happy to know that a PC launch was available. Great game!

[@cyrielroelofs]

5 hours into the game and it’s great, haven’t gotten dragged into a games story in an a long time. Sometimes feels like I’m playing a main role in a movie

[@ntmetroid]

I’m in 4 town and am loving this game.the art style and characters are excellent. I am also having a great deal of fun messing with my deck build and trying out different combat styles. I was intrigued from when i first saw it at EA’s showcase.

[@jefftemple4542]

Playing this after Psychonauts! Gotta love Fall season gaming

[@antisocialgamer1599]

I just finished psychonauts 2 last night too. My game of the year by far, it was fantastic.

[@brianoneil3362]

Psychonauts 2 is by far game of year I want this but eastward comes out 9/16 my 2 nd most anticipated game of the year

Looks wonderful. With all the solid Sept releases, I fear it might be lost in the crowd. I hope it finds an audience!

[@flexoffender5997]

Never been able to handle the idea of card based combat in video games really, but fuck did I have tons of fun with the deck in this game, being able to switch your style completely or just stay solid on what you're comfortable with there was enough there to keep me entertained any time I got to a combat section of the game.

[@saitamalowry6795]

Looks unique and it looks like it was made with love by its developers. I like that.

[@HUB594]

Looks like a ps3 game

[@Johnnygrafx]

Yes it's definitely a labor of love

[@TheRoseThatKnows]

It's Odd that you wouldn't Even insert an attempt of a Random but Dicey joke

[@jcarlos168]

I understood those references!

[@jaybabe7767]

It looks like a tim Burton or Henry selek movie and that's by far my favorite art style. I have been wishing for a remake or reboot of that Alice in wonderland game from ps2 the dark one and this seems pretty similar so I can't wait to play it. I still wish they would remake or reboot the Alice in wonderland game though.

[@abo1199]

American mcgee is currently making a third alice game.

[@angelganon8213]

It was called Alice madness returns

[@LittyJonez]

I have been waiting for the same thing

[@TheAppletard.]

@@angelganon8213 There was a game before that titled American McGees Alice, which has a somewhat different tone than Madness Returns

[@n0xish219]

You can play the game in instant gratification mode if you build the deck right, I hacked and slashed the whole 15 hours while also enjoying a nice story.

[@MyOwnVoucherEverywhere]

I'm not great at card games, but this made me feel a little better about this game. 👍🏽

[@CheckmateStallioN]

A full fledged 3D game in Unity that not only looks good but is actually well optimized too!! Not a single frame drop on PC. This feels like an Unreal engine game! It seems Unity has gotten better over the years for 3D games. Fe was also done in Unity but it had some noticeable frame drops which is odd since it's not a demanding game

[@jaysonovo4778]

This game is amazing people. Just buy it. Honestly some of the most fun with a game I've had in ages. It's just so different. It reminds me of hoe games like spyro felt back when they were new, but way better. It's like it's animated by Tim Burton, great story line, soooo different. Fun and unique combat. Was $27 or so on series s. I'm Lovin it honestly, and I'm more of a first person shooter kind of guy.

[@timpierce4741]

Hoe games like Spyro? Love me some Hoe games. Not a big fan of GTA but good hoes still...Guess I'll check it out. Thanks!

[@solidillusion8008]

About how many hours does it take to beat it

[@jaysonovo4778]

No idea yet. I've played like 2 or so hours so far. There are 6 lands in the game, and with how long I've played, I'm just getting to the third land.

[@InnerRise]

@@timpierce4741 So you like gardening games then. Like stardew valley and of rice and ruin.

[@timpierce4741]

@@InnerRise yes sir

[@camw9133]

Buying this tonight after work, can't wait to play

I was getting the same vibes

[@angelganon8213]

Me too

[@flaminghead1va]

Yeah and they're both by EA, so makes sense. 😁 (even sold in a bundle together on Steam if you wish)

[@CheckmateStallioN]

As a MediEvil fan this looks tight! Speaking of Sir Dan it's a yearly tradition playing the remaster the whole month of October. 3 more weeks!!

[@Johnnygrafx]

Yeah it hit me right in the medievil feels a lot. You will definitely like it if you like medievil

[@jcarlos168]

Just finished this game today. 10/10 for sure!.

[@tbhreviews6611]

Perfect Halloween game can’t wait to play it for spooky month !

[@MyOwnVoucherEverywhere]

That's a great idea. Wish I knew this game existed around that time lol

[@AbsoluteMrGamer]

"i am new to the channel and its not time to subscribe!" You will not force me "with its time to" NO ITS NOT TIME TO! i will decide when its time to!

[@patrickyeary]

That’s what happened to The Duke 2:20

[@garrettviewegh9028]

It really felt like you were wondering through board games, and the sides of a die. The most ironic thing, regarding the narrative, to me, was “Random rules”! The Queen, in fact, did not care for truly random chaos. But the illusion of controlled chaos. So long as it was all controlled by her die alone. It rolled randomly, but the Queen was the only one in control. So it wasn’t truly random in Random. Not like ot had been. In turn, she’d wished to crush Random under her strict rule, that seemed like fair random chance, but was instead strict controlled chaos under her.

[@MOONCAT666]

I love gothic games, movies and art so I love the artistic style of this but I'm so BORED. I'm not sure if it really is the game or depression again but it's just such a slog to get through and too linear and I find myself skipping dialogue as it just seems to drag. I've made it to threedom square but I'm forcing myself to play at this point.

[@KWPZ21]

After you finish the game can you replay the game where your previous playthrough carry over? Like your strong from the start or the game resets back to zero?

[@flaminghead1va]

Great question. From other reviews I've watched you RESET to zero. Like it won't let you keep playing after you beat the game. (Not 100% on this, but I know reviewers said you can't travel back to previous towns. So as example: Once you go to #6, you are stuck there)

[@TheLivingRoomHero]

If Tim Burton made video games. Im getting this one for sure!

[@brianwright11]

Just started playing this last week. Very good. Art style, general aesthetic and music give me major Nightmare Before Christmas vibes

[@minjod]

How long is this game?

[@AA-qh6qn]

8 to 12 hours

[@sipinthatbub]

From the same devs of Fe? I am getting this game right away

[@MarkusFFFF]

60 FPS on next gen or 30? I think this is something that should be mentioned in every review. I personally don't buy 30 FPS games anymore.

[@Johnnygrafx]

I'm not sure if it's a solid 60 but it's definitely above 30

[@zennni_dbz2535]

We need more games like this

[@zikarisg9025]

Very interested, but it's a crowded release period. How long is the game, more than 10 hours?

[@Johnnygrafx]

I'd say it's right around there. Depending on how you play it could be more or potentially less.

[@zikarisg9025]

[@matthuck378]

The combat sounds needlessly complicated. I'd have preferred less steps.

[@justdev8965]

6.0/10 for me, and that is being generous because of the high production values and unique world/animation. Gameplay was like a 4/10. These developers should focus on animated movies. They don't know how to make an actual game with actual you know... gameplay. Smh! I swear it's pretty rare to get good gameplay on newer games. Developers focus so much on standing out, that the they forget the basics of what makes a game a game.

[@Lovelyleesha91]

This is the 2nd review that said this game was easy..I'm having a different experience playing on it with a pc but I'm also a little rusty. I'm in love with the story line.

[@kraziezombie]

Well I'm getting it just for the atmosphere and art style of the game. The gameplay and story would be the icing.

[@royce3294]

Is this 60fps?

[@Hentirion]

Game is too blurry and there is no graphics option menu to change anything , forced AA , forced post processing. no Graphics preset. only brightness that help a little.

[@RPG_MASTERXL]

It has an art style lice alice in wonderland or Tim burton movies
