  • Despite its frustrations, Styx's stealth mechanics and Deus Ex-ian level design will continue to drive you forward in a game that is longer than you'd think...

  • Amid an overcrowded season full of newly launched triple-A titles, Shards of Darkness, at its very best, works as an inconsistent but serviceable stealth experience...

  • Abstract:  The foulmouthed little Goblin is the biggest problem in a game that has the makings of greatness. Styx is the true antagonist, a villain that will happily destroy the game's atmosphere, tone or fourth wall to try and get a response out of me.Your first f...

  • While not the best stealth game, Styx: Shards of Darkness offers some fun, unique gameplay. It might be filled with mixed messages, but there's still a number of hours' worth of sneaky, fun, stabbing action.Styx: Shards of Darkness was reviewed on PC74 /...

  • True to Dragon Age, Clever writing, Beautiful art
  • Weak ending, Spoilers in margins
  • Alien: Isolation seemed like the perfect Alien game on paper, and for the first handful of hours it even seems to deliver on its promise on the strength of its outstanding art and sound that faithfully recreates the ambiance of the classic horror film. In...

  • El humor y la mala leche de Styx, Escenarios enormes con multitud de posibilidades, Mecánicas de sigilo de lo más gratificante
  • Seguimos viendo un título en su lanzamiento algo verde con fallos que deberían ser pulidos
  • Puede que haya algunos aspectos que se le puedan a achacar a un lanzamiento un poco prematuro por parte de Cyanide Studios con esta nueva entrega de la franquicia, pero lo cierto es que Styx Shards of Darkness es un buen juego que nos dará hasta 15 horas...

  • Buenas mecánicas de infiltración, Fantástico diseño de niveles, El modo multijugador plantea algunas ideas interesantes
  • Historia apenas servicial y humor algo cansino, Pobre sistema de combate en los niveles de dificultad más bajos

  • Styx: Shards of Darkness n'est pas un mauvais jeu, mais il comporte l'ensemble des défauts que l'on reprochait au tout premier épisode de la franchise et n'apporte pas assez de nouveauté. Les développeurs du studio Cyanide nous propose une expérience iden...

  • Très nette progression au niveau des graphismes, Univers toujours aussi attrayant, Un véritable jeu d'infiltration, bien ficelé, Travail soigné au niveau de la verticalité qui donne de sacrées sensations, Niveaux ouverts et qui donnent envie d'être parcou
  • mais toujours aussi présents, Bande-son un peu en retrait, Quelques animations rigides, IA encore perfectible, Pas de véritable prise de risque
  • Après un premier opus qui m'avait globalement convaincu, ce nouvel épisode me plait d'autant plus qu'il est encore meilleur. Globalement, les développeurs ont repris ce qui faisait le succès de son prédécesseur pour les améliorer. Si vous cherchez un bon...
