Reid,<br> a doctor who has just returned from World War I and wakes up even worse than he was in combat: turned into a vampire. Then,<br> morality will be constantly at stake for him: save lives as his profession demands or feed on blood because his thirst demands it? A dilemma that will have to be solved while a depressing London plummets as a result of the Spanish flu.\n\n![1537815596_501652_1537815679_noticia_normal.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmQaBLX37t8sps5PhmaGUptxUHw4sVwrvufCyq9ApRgagK\/1537815596_501652_1537815679_noticia_normal.jpg)\n\n<center>**Make your story.**<\/center>\n\nIf the premise alone seems encouraging,<br> so much so that we can imagine that as we play it will turn out to be better,<br> with **Dontnod Entertainmend** this is assured. The creators of **Life is Strange** once again demonstrate how capable they are in presenting a deep,<br> engaging and sentimental story. Things go well from the start,<br> offering their own vampiric story,<br> away from the typical story,<br> which results in something original and absolutely satisfying.\n\nIt won't take us long to immerse ourselves in a sick and blood-covered city,<br> where we can have interesting dialogues that could even be poetic at the time,<br> giving the feeling of what it was really like to live at that time.\n\n\n![vampyr_2480813_1200x675.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmYbLFPNhfidiEPCz7jBMAhxQnfSbqGTd9YTZHvRDkdCC8\/vampyr_2480813_1200x675.jpg)\n\n<center>**The decline of London.**<\/center>\n\nThe setting is one of the most important factors in this game,<br> as it helps us get into the world of **Vampyr**. The graphics are not the best of the current generation but the recreation and invention of the British city plagued by the Spanish flu,<br> without a doubt,<br> is truly amazing. It will be a pleasant welcome to walk through the cobbled streets,<br> where the street lamps illuminate them with their yellowish light between the fog and the rain. We will find places where darkness prevails and it turns out to be immersive going into these places.\n\nBut it will not always be that emergent to stroll through the streets of London. Among the things I find to reproach the developer is the design of the map. The excessive intersecting streets,<br> ineffective chewers and doors that only open on one side,<br> make moving around infested London tedious,<br> that and not to mention that there is no quick trip.\n\n![Vampyr_Review_Beautiful_Streets.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmUwP8bcaHhCFR3z5ZGCa3rsZKd3XrTKu7gxwUKrhWq9uM\/Vampyr_Review_Beautiful_Streets.jpg)\n\n<center>**Enemies on the streets of London.**<\/center>\n\nObviously the streets will not be free from threats. We will mainly meet three types of enemies: **werewolf**,<br> **vampire hunters** and **skals**. The latter are a kind of incomplete vampire to call them in some way,<br> arising from the bite of a bloodsucker of low lineage. These enemies never cease to be a challenge.\n\nAs we advance,<br> our characters become more powerful,<br> but hunters and creatures will also do so through a district progression system. In other words,<br> in each district they will be more powerful. A wise decision that always generates a challenge for the player.\n\n![d4f5ed431f658f2ab834095a5526e5d8c307cc6d_vampyr-7---copy.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmaBy3Eb9dWYsQtY5hPdo8JWKNYyZTQ1tKKWs5q8U1opxU\/d4f5ed431f658f2ab834095a5526e5d8c307cc6d_vampyr-7---copy.jpg)\n\nIn combat we will not find a system as deep as we would like,<br> but that is not bad either. At first,<br> punches are basic,<br> but as we progress through the game we will unlock skills that improve the experience. In the end,<br> hitting and dodging feels good,<br> in the style that RPGs have kept in recent years. **Vampyr** is not betting on its difficulty,<br> but on bringing a great story to this genre.\n\n![vampyr_18.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmNgbAoG3XUb1jKJd1PknUv71LYhcsuZQTHvyyTT2maAkX\/vampyr_18.jpg)\n\n<center>**Live like a vampire.**<\/center>\n\nIt is important to note that **Vampyr** takes into account the fact that we play a vampire. Our thirst for blood carries immense weight and it shows with each step we take. Drinking blood not only helps us to use our powers,<br> but also thanks to this our character will be able to progress and acquire new abilities.\n\nIn this sense,<br> the game puts our morals in checkmate,<br> since we will decide who lives and who dies. In this aspect you will make difficult decisions,<br> say between someone who you care about but gives you a lot of experience in eliminating it or someone bad that would leave an entire family on the streets infested by the flu.\n\n![43100efbbe5bf6c4_1200xH.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmPpB8Kv5gor54hPAYX3j6Y6fd3mwbiuyWfXVToJrvDFoh\/43100efbbe5bf6c4_1200xH.jpg)\n\nFor that part we have very well worked characters. Despite the fact that there is a great difference between the protagonist and the secondary characters,<br> they manage to maintain a good level contributing more to the investment of the game.\n\n![maxresdefault.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmWtL1oj3jQcSLeKuA2RtFdDsDLMqMPyQFyFsBzWeTmm3P\/maxresdefault.jpg)\n\n<center>**Technical section.**<\/center>\n\nNot everything is positive in this game. **Vampyr** has some glitches technically that cut with the fluidity of the game and that is very important when we delve into a story as presented by **Vampyr**. Sometimes I will find them are low in the FPS,<br> mostly on a PlayStation 4,<br> and this adding up the loading times with a bit extensive.\n\nAs for sound,<br> you can only receive compliments; the voices are good and the sound the atmosphere is amazing. But what really stands out in the music,<br> so much so that it can be said that with **Vampyr** we have one of the best soundtracks of the current generation.\n\n![1-Portada-640x360.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmb8y2Z52Q84fj55cr9iKhuy9wese29ZXob4GiwdYhGGRx\/1-Portada-640x360.jpg)\n\n<center>**Verdict.**<\/center>\n\n**Dontnod Entertainmend** has made a huge success with this production,<br> giving the action RPG genre something it so badly needed: a good,<br> hard-working story. Although **Vampyr** can be blamed for some things,<br> such as some technical aspects,<br> depth in combat and improved mapping; This does not take away the merit of being a game with positive points with which to counter the negative ones. An original vampiric experience with a very good atmosphere that cannot be missed.\n\n![Klk.jpg (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmaemxinvZtdxCp6mcypXtqD3jkFK8WwY7gbYa7xMVAsho\/Klk.jpg)",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"invengaming\",<br>\"games\",<br>\"game\",<br>\"gaming\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmPSGg4mRqqWgQJGdixGh4asQYRdgw1g6fdweMvSysvu2u\/013740b04ca205af4d3b5de6f4dcc3e7bea5ff4fdfbaf1b6217652bd2d7f1b9d_product_card_v2_mobile_slider_639.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmQaBLX37t8sps5PhmaGUptxUHw4sVwrvufCyq9ApRgagK\/1537815596_501652_1537815679_noticia_normal.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmYbLFPNhfidiEPCz7jBMAhxQnfSbqGTd9YTZHvRDkdCC8\/vampyr_2480813_1200x675.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmUwP8bcaHhCFR3z5ZGCa3rsZKd3XrTKu7gxwUKrhWq9uM\/Vampyr_Review_Beautiful_Streets.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmaBy3Eb9dWYsQtY5hPdo8JWKNYyZTQ1tKKWs5q8U1opxU\/d4f5ed431f658f2ab834095a5526e5d8c307cc6d_vampyr-7---copy.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmNgbAoG3XUb1jKJd1PknUv71LYhcsuZQTHvyyTT2maAkX\/vampyr_18.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmPpB8Kv5gor54hPAYX3j6Y6fd3mwbiuyWfXVToJrvDFoh\/43100efbbe5bf6c4_1200xH.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmWtL1oj3jQcSLeKuA2RtFdDsDLMqMPyQFyFsBzWeTmm3P\/maxresdefault.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmb8y2Z52Q84fj55cr9iKhuy9wese29ZXob4GiwdYhGGRx\/1-Portada-640x360.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmaemxinvZtdxCp6mcypXtqD3jkFK8WwY7gbYa7xMVAsho\/Klk.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.2\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
