Free Download [Password] I'm not normally one for twin stick shooters, and I've never left a review on Steam before, so that should immediately give you some idea of how much I enjoyed RIVE. The 4 hours it took for me to beat the campaign was some of the most fun and memorable I have ever had playing a video game. The game is densely action-packed, and manages to change things up often enough that you're never bored, even though you return to previously explored areas throughout the game. Unless you are a decorated veteran of twin stick shooters, the campaign is extremely challenging\u2014expect to die over and over again in some levels. Enemies get a bit samey, as there isn't a ton of variety, but the level design more than makes up for it, and every area\/level really does feel unique (even if you've been there before). I know some people weren't fans of the cheesy dialogue, but I enjoyed the clich\u00e9d meta-humor throughout RIVE.My one gripe was that the final boss fight was too easy relative to the rest of the game\u2014I was expecting something else to come after, but disappointingly, nothing did.Is it worth the full price? Eh, depends on how much you enjoy these types of games; it was for me, but I could see some people being disappointed at what you get for the price. That said, it is definitely worth snagging on sale if it looks at all interesting to you.. This game is absolutely amazing.First, let me get just a couple negative things out of the way. The design of vehicle was a real miss for me. Would've been so nice if the vehicle was anywhere as cool as the rest of the game. It is sorely missing a gun nozzle\/tank turret. Without it, it makes it look as though the front is the back and you're walking in reverse the entire game; very distracting. The legs are big an awkward looking, ugh, it just looks so dumb! I mean, what is it? A yoyo with watermelon legs, a behind like an ant's abdomen and a flashlight-eye, WHAT!?Second, pressing left trigger to jump was very frustrating especially during harder platforming parts of the game. I wish one of the 4 buttons on the right were an alternate way to jump. There were times I had to reach my right hand across to the left trigger to press it.Alright, relieved to get that off my chest. Those things bothered me so much because they ruined an otherwise masterpiece. The sound and music in this game are life changing. I will carry this music in my heart forever. It's so good. I recommend turning the sound effects down some cuz they overpower and distract from the music.The whole watery, industrial, steampunky feel is so my style. If you don't like the first level, this game's not for you. You'll spend the whole game in that environment. But if you love it, you're in luck. And they double down on the water later. It's grrrreat.Storywise, meh, the characters are very charming but there's not much of a plot really.The game challenges are fair and creative. There's many unique level designs which are very hard but have very generous save points to balance it out.9 out of 10 for me.
