Hello there Eclipse, probably the reason of why you found the combat system so punishing and other mechanics a bit strange it's probably because the game is heavily inspired in Manhunt, A game from 2003. The mechanics you mentioned which such as some enemies not moving at all and just sitting there until the player appears, is something that also happens in manhunt, pretty much all the things that seemed strange came from Manhunt. Although they did take some liberties such as adding a parry system which is not in the original Manhunt game, So maybe they could have changed some things but it seems they wanted to remain faithful to the original game. Now, the last mission does not come from any mission in Manhunt, as in manhunt the last mission is based around fighting one final boss and there are plenty shadows to hide in. So the issues of the of the final mission does not come from Manhunt and it comes from the developers of the game. Hope that helped

[@ShokyoLeaf]

no wonder why the combat is so dogshit 💀💀 tried to play this with my friend and we got to the last level and just couldn't beat it because the devs didn't add anything for co-op, the camera was way outta sync forcing us forcing us to pray to god for it to not trigger and summon a bunch of enemies that forced us to play super stealthy and pick one off or play against them with the worst combat in history, even when we did the bottles we used to help take down enemies barely worked and it sucked, the enemy AI has x-ray and could see you through the dark and through the walls some time, overall the game was just dogshit near the end, we did have some fun in the beginning but once we reached the last it went south real quick and was more of a frustrating game than a fun one if they just made parrying stun a lil longer to get in a hit or two than I would enjoy it more but it didn't do anything other than waste stamina and draw out fights that is played against you. (oh and you cant punish enemies who heal up but they can punish you.)

[@pantommy]

@@ShokyoLeaf when the combat is intentionally bad, the blame falls on the players for using it. That's kind of the philosophy they're going for. This worked 20 years ago with games like Manhunt and... Silent Hill.. I guess?

Hey Eclipse! This is the first time I actually comment something in your videos despite watching most (if not all) of your videos. Traversal is a game me and my friend discovered not so long ago, and we've played through it up until the end (which dissappointed us a little). I'll just clarify a few points to help you go through it again if you want to, which I would totally understand if you don't want to since it is HELL. Yes, the game IS absurdly frustrating to go through as a new player, we struggled SO BAD we quit it after the first night getting to the third level and finished it one night after. Anyways, the healing you get it from the guards themselves! You need to sneak behind them, follow them until you're really close and you'll notice that on their back (where your third item is positioned on your character), they've got a green potion you can snatch to use yourself. This does NOT trigger them into aggro mode since you're just sneakily stealing it. PVP is HARD AS HELL, true, but after getting used to it it gets doable; me and my friend struggled with this a lot, since every time were seen we were forced to pvp our way out of the situation, and it wasn't until the second day that we settled for the alternative of actually pvping the enemies instead of running away from them. It is possible to fight them, we did that actually and beaten a level thanks to doing so, even outnumbered... However, we were two people, and not solo. I wouldn't recommend doing it solo since, well, it's a pain of an alternative (though if you become a pvp god at the game, you might do it, it is possible.) And then, the distraction problem... It works by individuals, you throw a brick near an enemy or a bottle, whichever item you might find, and they'll go towards it to briefly check it at the moment. Upon checking the area and resolving there's no one there, they'll begin patrolling the area where they saw the brick hit the floor and stick to that area changing their moving patterns; this means that if the npc was patrolling the area "A", you threw a brick near them, in area "B" and they went over to check, they'll start patrolling area "B" instead. This can be used to force their behaviour and get them to an area you've already cleared of all enemies to lure them and kill them easily, without worrying about being seen in the process. If you trigger more than one enemy with your throwable item, this rule will also apply to that enemy as well, and both will change their behaviour to complement eachother's. I hope this helped clear some doubts about the game mechanics, love your videos man, and thanks for reviewing the game! Maybe they'll add more stuff like different endings or more levels now that you've talked about it. Peace! Edit: I FORGOT TO SPEAK ABOUT WEAPON MECHANICS. Despite both the knife and the crowbar having unique mechanics, the other weapons have mechanics regarding pvp. The axe, as example, (me and my friend hate it) hits really slowly, has a close range, but does good damage. The crowbar hits way faster, but deals significantly less damage. There's also a secret weapon, the chainsaw, it is located somewhere on level three. Weapons have different mechanics, yeah, so I guess that if you specialize in one type of combat (I, as example, choose to use crowbars and knives) you can choose on wether you prefer one playstyle or another. I think I ain't forgetting anything this time, and sorry for my bad english, I'm not even from an european or american cuntry. I'm from Argentina, lol. See ya Eclipse, keep up the amazing videos!

I found a good strat for running - as soon as you run out of stamina, turn around and hit a parry before running. It should give enough time to recharge your stamina fully.

[@Cala0314]

I completed this game with barely any stealth with a friend, the enemies have about as much hp as the player or slightly more... Plus a healing item which heals 40% of their hp which you can steal from them, it took us almost 2 hours tho. Mostly because of the last level, the design from that level is made to make your weapons useless

[@Andiandote]

The combat system in Traversal is kind of spam crowbar followed by panic parrying. Bots will (almost) always perfect parry you, which means you will get softlocked if you don't: A) take some steps back and repeat the process one again B) kick him, it really works C) spam, most viable tbh Also, a lot of healing items can be found after killing enemies, so you either skipped enemy bodies or just didn't see em, because I had PLENTY of healing, I dodged death like 9 times actually. And, just so if you didn't know, light weapons are top tier in this game, they give almost no chance of parrying if you don't make it a perfect.

[@theriper2737]

I think that all of the problems you said are mainly a skill problem: the combat not being an option is not true from what I can tell you were hiting the enemy onece and stoping you can most of the time get 2 to 3 hits off and im pretty sure you can tire enemys out and the some times carry healing items and is not like a small chance is like 50% or something idk ther is a problem with comabt tho if you are bellow a certant amout of hp you just cant fight because you will get executed and the enemys don't need to hit you to do that the just need to start there atack animation, Throwables are very usable. You can throw the will, and the turning thing is just an animation. Mostly from my experience, just don't run or walk on wooden floors while you are moving to them, and you should be fine. The last level needs you to use throables. You can throw one near the edge of the stairs and one near you to get one guy in the firsts room, then 1v1 the secend. Though I have nothing for the shodows in the lablary, there are a few, and you can use throwables to get to them, but it still sucks.

[@chiiyon]

Not to be "That guy" but it kinda bothered me the way you didn't "correctly" explained some of the game mechanics or at least didn't fully grasp them before writting the video, specially the open combat. For example it is a bit more complex than it initially appears (not to say it has insane depth ofc), you CAN kill enemies in open combat, (in fact it can be really easy if you use the Axe since it does more dmg) but of course it's hard since the game expect you to find a way to take them down silently, but every weapon does have slight differences between eachother. Besides just the normal click attack & parry, you're also able to push away enemies before they fully throw the attack by doing an early parry really close to them, reseting you both back to neutral but with a slight frame advantage depending on the weapon. There's also a sort of "heavy" attack, If you sprint and attack you throw a "heavy" attack that will do more dmg than the normal attack, and that "heavy" attack can also disarm the opponent or yourself if the enemy hits you with one. And when either of you go below a certain HP threshold (Like about 30% to 20%~) a red dot appears that indicates that you can do an "execution" or "finisher" to the opponent, finishing the fight in a single, unblockable attack. About the health items, Enemies can spawn with a Throwable in their back (Either a bottle or medicine), that's how you can heal yourself before the last level, and how you can find extra bottles to distract, & a cool thing you can also do is steal the item from the enemy if you're hiden behind them, it's not really that useful because if you're sneaking behind them it means you have an easy insta-kill anyway but it is cool nonetheless. Overall i agree with and enjoyed the video, it was entertaining like pretty much all your videos, but i just felt like i had to explain somethings that you may not have catched or that some people that played the game may not realized existed. The AI can be really random at times, I for example never ran into the distraction not working problem that you had, BUT i do had the problem of the AI just being extremely cracked at the game & just suddently destroying me in open combat. I do find kinda stupid that they made it possible to beat the STEALTH game by just brute forcing your way through if you're good at the open combat since it defeats the whole appeal of the game but it is what it is. And that last level is honestly insane, how did NO ONE say ANYTHING about the level being too hard, specially in single player.

the game is hella good and fun to mess around with especially with friends there are also fun easter eggs spread around the map, like an easter bunny boss with a chainsaw or a katana hidden in a suitcase. the combat system is really easy honestly, attack, parry incoming attack, kick incoming attack and spam attacks after parrying/kicking, forgot to mention most enemies carry a health potion on them but forget that! just bait the enemies to some other part of the map and make a run for it! thats one of the ways i made it through the last level, aggrod every npc, hid in the shadows, threw a distraction far away from the door you need to progress and walk right in there. from my experience, stealth is pretty good honestly. firstly there are 3 types of enemies patrolling, stationary, and the ones that are sitting you dont necessarily NEED to be in a shadow in order to stealth kill an enemy, you can just catch them off guard. for example, when you throw a distraction and the enemy walks around to ur side of the wall, not on guard. you can stealth kill them, you can even see this in a bunch of the clips you showed where the enemy has a red circle.

[@captaincriptic4390]

Zero views in one minute?? eclipse has hit an all time high!!!

[@Viktorthabest2212]

About the door with 2 enemies guarding it part and just the entirety of le game: after a stationary enemy is alerted by a distraction they will start walking to specific locations and kinda be on a lookout and so that's how you kill them. You can also alert enemies by attacking walls with your weapon to bring them in closer which is extremely useful for that last part (atleast it was for me). Yes the distraction mechanic is a lil' scuffed since you can only distract 1 enemy with a throwable but I do believe the game is decently good for a roblox stealth game.

[@guywithjamonbreadasaprofile]

You are, basically right about all of the negatives lmfao Though taking head on combat might've come to adapted skills alone, I do still find myself most of the time leading them to a shadow and executing them there, in which almost all of the players I've known did it. And thanks for raising concerns about the final level, I thought only I felt it was kinda rushed. The game seemingly has potential, the designs, the horror aspect, the promise of an actual fine horror game, its all there. But I'd reckon they were in some sort of a rush or generally ran out of ideas, because the later levels really are kind of dull after a while consideration winning the game.

[@bowldawg4394]

Good review, a lot of good takes here, but I wanna add to some of them The combat *can* be mastered, but the way the game is designed actively discourages it in most cases anyway because you make a ton of noise while doing it, causing more enemies to find you while you’re trying your hardest just to kill that one. It’s hard to fight one enemy, borderline impossible to fight two. My biggest problem with that last level is that the exit is unreasonably hard to find. It’s a locked door kinda in a shadow and behind a chair, and in my first run it took me WAY too long to even find the exit

[@RevenantCollision]

Eclipse, just to let you know enemies are killable (I would know as me and a friend of mine just brute forced our way through some sections) and I also agree that shadows are extremely cheesable and distractions are very buggy, however they can be used for the most hilarious mechanic, throwing bricks at enemies and then charging at them full send. Also in case you didn’t know (or maybe you did and forgot to mention it) there’s a room with some chainsaws in it that can tear through enemies.

I don't like the 'Hiding in shadows' mechanic as it is. You can aggro all the enemies in the map and just hide in a shadow in plain sight. The enemies forget you so fast; it's really disappointing.

I've only ever beaten the game with a friend, but i still have some things worth noting. To start off, there is a cheesy ass bug where if you both interact with an item at the same time, you both get it. With 100% consistency too. This basically meant double weapons, throwables and infinite heals. (Also heals are very common on the back of the belt of the enemies and just spawn on the ground in some places.) The combat system is definitely not good and can easily be cheesed with the small knife which attacks so fast that you can just combo until your stamina runs out. We've also had many situations in which for some reason the enemies parried everything, and the hitboxes are also trash. Game was still pretty fun tho.

[@auhs6240]

I think the main issue is that it felt like it was designed for multiple players, as the enemies horde you if you mess up, and there's a bunch of enemies that are in poor positions, which means that it can be incredibly difficult to find the best time to take them down.

[@kiro2297]

Played this game and loved it, however they need fix the throwable aggro. And also YOU CAN LITERALLY JUST RUN TO A SHADOW AFTER AGGROING A ENEMY AND THEY DONT SEE YOU. But besides that its probably inspired on the Manhunt series, however in there you actually have a functional combat system, instead of the janky thing, Traversal presents. Besides, just like Eclipse said, there is absolutely no reason no try fight enemies, they are somehow MUCH BETTER than you in that, as they are able to dodge and tackle off your attacks, as well as just like the player, parry. (The final level literally has empty rooms with absolutely nothing which sucks...)

For the throwables, you can throw it near yourself and it will attract them. When they’re close, hit a wall if you’re behind one and when they get near you can execute them. But the throwables are still definitely a buggy mess and they can’t really hear it unless it’s in their line of sight or something.

[@quaesitorluminis2846]

You are right about the punishing open combat. I have been able to kill them in open combat before but it is pretty much RNG based. The final level gives you pretty much no hiding places, so you have to be super crafty. This game reminds me of Rockstar's "Man Hunt." They really needed to work on the shadowing on the last level, but I know where the hiding spots are. The first hiding spot is in that really dark area in the bookshelves when you enter through that door on the left. You can cheese a lot of the enemies by hiding there.

As someone who also played the whole game, I pretty much agree with everything here. Although I'll say that healing items can be picked up from dead enemies (or pickpocketed from them). Another small-ish problem with the game could be that in certain sections of the map you can just run past all the enemies to the next checkpoint.

I do agree with you that the melee combat is made to be punishing. However, it might have felt more punishing to you because you were carrying a crowbar the entire time. As far as I could tell when playing with friends, the crow bar just out right sucks in combat, which is why its used for utility like knives. Its far more efficient to stealth kill or fight off most enemies with a katana or smth and then grab the crowbar to go to the next level.

[@dudeoftheevening]

Eclipse the reason why combat felt super long is because the crowbar does the least damage compared to the other primaries(or at least thats how it felt in my playthrough) so "technically" there is a reason to pick up other primaries

[@Dwyer69]

I genuinely cannot fathom how you said anything nice about this game. This is probably the worst stealth and combat mechanics I've experienced in a videogame. It's a stealth game that punishes you for moving at the same speed the enemies do. The combat is just pathetically bad you aren't missing anything. The parry mechanic is meaningless because the enemies take 0 hit stun from both parries and attacks. I was perfect parried after I did a perfect parry constantly. And I get that it's supposed to be a last resort mechanic but the stealth is so pathetic that I don't get how you aren't supposed to be in combat constantly. If you aren't crouching in a corner with literally no one around then you get seen. Distractions do less than nothing because you can't even walk up to the enemies to takedown after a distraction. Half of the time I had a take down prompt it did literally nothing or just swung my weapon at the enemy. The game is also fugly as sin too so it barely even felt like I knew what I was looking at/for. I like stealth games so I figured I'd probably just blitz through it and give some advice but god damn this game is horrible. You were way too nice to this one I don't get it. There is not an ounce of redeemingt quality here, just pure garbage.

The healing items can be found randomly on enemies, however, they do sometimes fall on their back, where the healing is located. This causes the player to not be able to pick up the item, nor even see it. So you probably got really unlucky and every enemy fell on their ass instead of their face causing you to never see the potential heals that they had.

[@Hado_-]

you could still pick them up even if they fall on their back just spam space

[@Bigmack_13]

7:22 There is a way to beat them without aggro'ing them, you can grab a throwable, and crouch, then hide in the right corner of the room, there is a HUGE shadow, then from there you can kill the guards one by one, by using...distractions, you also might need to throw the throwable mid-range so that the NPC walks towards your hiding spot, and once he turns around you can instantly run and kill him overall, i agree the game is kindaaaa bonkers for people who only likes playing the games one off

[@Bigmack_13]

another answer: 8:07 there are TWO shadows in the corners of the door you just came through, to trigger the camera, you should probably "Test the waters" there is an icon above your health bar that determines if ur hidden or not, fyi fyi: you can hide in one of the shadows in the corner and only 2 men will come in

[@Bigmack_13]

another answer: 8:24 in that wall, or whatever you can go to the edge of that wall and actually corner kill them, if you time it correctly, AND if ur not lagging, i've done it multiple times, theres also a shadow in that bookshelf parralel to the wall you can corner kill people out of, and you can actually just walk in this lol you dont have to crouch, because DESPITE what the game says, you can still be stealthy while walking, you can also find a bunch of shadows near the bookshelves that you need to go through inorder to unlock the exit using the crowbar, FYI: you can run at the NPC's and they will be stunned looking for the noise for a few seconds and thats more than enough time to do a "jump-execution"

[@Bigmack_13]

9:58 you can hide in the shadow of the bookshelf, and hit the bookshelf using a knife or another contraband, for some reason the sitting dude only gets aggressive when he hears player noises only

[@ROBOthese]

First and btw any update or bee game?

[@bruhmaster6717]

as someone who played this game too basically like everyone else in the comments, 1 on 1 fights arent even that bad honestly, i could consistently kill them as long as im about half hp or higher the only issue is their infinite stamina. And the game was much more fun trying to finish by using all the destraction mechanics (even though they were barely working sometimes) and fighting for my god damn life whenever an enemy see's me, definitly recommend playing this with a friend though as its 10x more fun and funnier, especially when you start beating the hell out of an enemy together and one of you insta kills him by accident

[@mimice9496]

I agree with how the last level was poorly designed, however the combat isn't made for you to win in bad situations like being seen by multiple people, it's meant to stun & run. That's the point of a stealth game. Also you can find healing items on dead enemies as well, they are glowing and shiny so I don't know how you missed them either😂.

[@roniqroniq2235]

Traversal is like a bowl. On the surface its good but may have many problems. Such as cracks that food can leak through.

[@zainstar1954]

you're right but actually in multiplayer we did 2V4 it worked but super hard

[@orbman9464]

we should tell eclipse to try HELLMET i think he'll like it

[@user-uz8ke7wc8z]

Healing items spawn on the backs of NPC sometimes but if they fall on their back there’s no chance you can get them. Moreover, the last level with 2 guards at the door is doable through distraction but it isn’t obvious at first - you gotta bug abuse and throw the glass bottle through the wall (the right part of it) and then throw another bottle to get the guy closer and only THEN finish him off. The second guard is the same method. Battle mechanic indeed sucks but damage scaling on weapons is different. NPCs have different patterns so some might either parry you forever or keep attacking you until you die so you just gotta adapt (after enough damage dealt there will be a red circle on them).

[@Cl0ckle]

Some things from my own experience with this 1. Like everyone else has already said there's a few healing items throughout each level. 2. I don't doubt the issue with the combat as they seem to either have inf stamina or just collapse in seconds. But it isn't hard to kill them with it as they can't really take much dmg at least from my own experience. 3. Me and a friend had a different issue entirely with the distraction items. Mainly being that the enemies wouldn't even notice them. And if they did it was a 50/50 if they went to the spot or just beelined for us instantly. However anytime they did go for the distraction they waited there for awhile. 4. I don't have anything to say about the final level it was not really fun imo. 5. This game is so easy to cheese and break with another player. Inf duping and stun locking makes the game basically a breeze.

[@mariowithagun1941]

I beat the game in 20 minutes on my 3rd play through. It’s pretty easy once you learn the mechanics from doing a lot of experimenting(can’t wait for part two of the game.) you can kill an enemy in combat I personally didn’t find it that hard although I will admit it is very annoying. (Use the knife and spam parry and r so they can’t hit any attacks) I love you eclipse my pookie You can use distractions on the first two enemy’s in the last level by the way. I constructed this comment whilst watching the video lol

[@30.6.8]

4:02 The combat system is literally MEANT to be a last resort if you get caught so u still have a chance to survive

[@30.6.8]

5:32???????? You can fight back though????????? When an enemy is singled out that is when open combat is actually good

[@30.6.8]

5:44 TO BE FAIR, they are well hidden but they can sometimes be like right on a guard’s back plus they flash when u get close to them

[@30.6.8]

Other than that I agree with Eclipse on most points, good job :)

[@DanteSparda57]

i personally think traversal is not just almost good, but GOOD just imo tho

[@Chair486]

next hes gonna review life. Hide your family or anyone you ever loved. No one will survive.

[@thechallenginggamer8185]

Madness combat: tuck3r is the best roblox movement shooter that i have played, movement feels clean and melee range scaling with speed rewards you for going fast, switching between weapons is cool at first and neccessary by the end, difficulty is exponential tho and you will defineatly get epilepsy if you have phtosensitivity problems

[@ChillZoh]

You can get heals off of the enemies you kill, with a chance, it'll be on their waist. Although this isn't explicitly mentioned which took me some time to figure out when playing with my friend.

[@gaspirou6031]

How do you drink it because I kept throwing it

[@verohd9731]

the idea in the last level is to stick to the wall before throwing the bottle that way they won't see you

[@creeferplayz9312]

you can kill enemies in open combat, from what I can tell from the footage you only got 1 hit in per opening when you can usually get about 2 or 3 and worst case scenario you get parried which just resets the situation with you having slightly less stamina that can easily be gotten back by parrying

[@bodhi1762]

2:38 hey, if you like that concept, maybe you should give Condemned: Criminal Origins a shot, not a roblox game but it’s made by the same people who made F.E.A.R. if you know what that is.

[@MoxxieYT]

9:52 when you thew the bottle you agro another dude behind that bookshelf I had the same thing happen to me Btw a game you should try is Recovery I had a lot of fun playing it with my brother

[@az4659]

there is a second last level in which they force you to fight a stronger enemy without any stealth

[@awe13]

You should try ultimate town sandbox :p

[@dando541]

I completed the entire game nd I didn't know shadows existed until I saw this video. I was literally just fighting the enemies without stealth for like 3 hours lol Also the knife and the crowbar have REALLY low damage which makes any other weapon useful because they can actually kill enemies

[@theboredgamer7236]

Personally I don't know if they nerfed the hp of the enemies after you played but when me and my friend played the game and went through the entire first mission in combat we killed them all pretty quick. definitely easier to stealth though.

[@misfire22]

A little of topic but I think you should try out a bodycam game, called hellmet. It's really well made and i think you'll enjoy it.

[@goldentoilet4041]

The game is pretty fun in my opinion but the overall fighting feels pretty unfair, it always feels like they get the first hit on you and parrying them doesn't feel like it helps that much even if you time it perfectly. The best way to fight them for me was just ganging on them with my friend and stunlocking them. I think the optional boss fight for the chainsaws is pretty cool but you losing the chainsaws after dying makes it really pointless and useless. I also want to mention that you can literally turn around a corner while an enemy is chasing you and enter a shadow which causes them to literally go in front of you and just stand there giving you a free kill which makes the enemies feel pretty stupid. I also like how enemies can use heal and how you can steal their heals mid fight if you press space at the right time. I agree with the last level being extremely difficult. In our winning attempt my friend died and I legit spent like 20+ minutes sneaking around or running to clear out the enemies. Despite how bs it was it felt pretty fun and thrilling for me there and I felt like I was doing a die hard. (time to end up in ddos)

[@goldentoilet4041]

Also I didn't feel the need to run back to spawn like you did. I mean I literally couldn't because I went through the camera undetected and there are a few shadow spots you could run into that are convenient but I still agree that there should be more or the ones that literally have shadows should work to circumvent the braindead run back to some shadowy spot and watch as the enemies literally look at you and then turn their back to you.

[@electromagnet4138]

You should try out hellmet, it's pretty cool.

[@hackersnoob9118]

that shit about to get closed

[@DarkZ0l]

Try untitled boxing game. It's one of those games that aren't overly balanced, and is still quite enjoyable.

[@killer_hoh478]

I think the camera section is bugged because every time Intried to get past it even when it was looking the other way it always detected me. Also combat mechanics do work it just takes 50 years to take out a single enemy and enemies with crowbars and machetes are almost impossible to parry

[@H0LDUPWAlTAMINUTE]

On the last level what you can do is agro them and then go around the door and once they are in the doorway you gotta jump out and be very quick with the takedown. I did this to 3 enemies and then baited the rest to follow me and then I would run to the door and unlock it and open it and jump down, they can't follow you down by the way.

[@H0LDUPWAlTAMINUTE]

I think they purposefully did this to make you really think about what to do and to make it harder by having to be really fast.

[@Njeta]

Eclipse the reason you didint kill any enemies in open combat because the crowbar is very bad at combat it takes like 10 hits to kill someone,meanwhile the fire axe takes like 4 hits but at the cost of more stamina

[@Steriiaa]

I'll try it, been looking for a game like this. thx!

[@leesookoon9782]

The sitting enemies are blind so you can just run towards it and kill it immediately

[@Abyssalshell]

I played this game with mostly only fighting, the key to the combat is BRICK.

[@SuperDawidPL123]

so pretty much roblox version of rockstar's manhunt series in combination with condemned criminal origins but witchout the brutal finishers like in manhunt

[@GaklaTheRealOne]

I think you missed a chainsaw fight. It was a door on the right when you enter the main big building after the graveyard.

[@nikoloid5388]

he man, i saw a vid by penguinz0 about escape tarkov being greedy and making a 250$ pay to win or something. i didnt watch the vid just in case you plan to make a vid about it, i don't play the game but i love your vids on it, so hoping to see one about that.

[@swordlegend3256]

5:55 yes u missed a lot of em enemies usually have them on their backf. 7:35 me and my friend did this easly with distractions you jusy have to throw at the stairs and quickly run at em when they are not looking at you or throw another one close to you so they come over

[@cosmic.enzukai]

Eclipse there are healing pots hidden around the maps and some enemies have healing but other than that everything is correct.

[@GinoLovesKyoko]

sorry for the rec even though ik you dont like stealth games that much if at all 😭 hope you come back to it again if they/when they add more levels

[@Apk-y1y]

my friend and I played this game. Whew! It was hard to play and I kept dying. My friend was just breezing through this and I only killed like 3 enemies. I like the game but im just bad so i would recommend

[@masterbolt6106]

good review honestly! but yeah you did miss every healing item in the game. if u pay attention to the ppl u kill sometimes they will have a bottle of pills attached to their belt which u can pick up.

[@Forsakianity]

Goodluck rating the new TCA update!!

[@shellknight841]

you should play lore game

[@_defqst_8933]

I think you should also try Hellmet, it's a shooter, realistic, and roblox

[@Sleepy_Nera]

healing items spawn all around the levels, missing them is on you killing guards is also possible if ur good enough at the normal combat, but i dont reccommend using crowbar

[@i_Ayush1]

Bro wdym "hesitant to recommend it"? People play Sol's RNG bro, you should know their standards 💀

[@CloudingITS]

this game punishes you if you don't know how to use the game's stealth. combat is a terrible option. you will be punished immediately. the combat is only there is you get caught by accident by the enemy.

[@CloudingITS]

also, what i've seen from your gameplay, you dont use the stealth. you need to use it to your full potential.

[@coolblox4840]

You can kill an enemy even from the front if you suprise them quick enough

[@unidentifiedidentity-z2i]

There's this game called trailers that I see popping off, you should give it a go

[@eio-cz3nn]

You can get heals from dead enemies or you can pickpocket them
