No Echo Remastered V1.01
No Echo Remastered Review
Rating: 2 / 5

Pros:
  • Little bits of replayability here and there with choices that the group can make was really nice. Loved it.
  • Map design was okay.
  • At least one hidden collectible thing.

Cons:
  • Having an artificial barrier to keep the players from moving through the vents but allowing the zombies through is really bad design with how they currently are placed.
  • The "pre-finale" doesn't make any sense. Why did we have to turn on the radio (that just plays music) to start the generator?
  • There are a few too many steps for the "pre-finale" escape. Why do we have to start the generator, get several different materials to repair it, then have to charge the escape car?
  • The escape was never indicated for us other than a "Get to the escape vehicle!" message, so we were rather lost.
  • The finale mechanics were a neat idea but both of the players who ended up being our drivers said the controls for the RV were really bad. The finale also felt kinda pointless unless you were the driver, it should have just ended with the pre-finale.




Some other notes that I didn't get to or that were more subjective:
  • Not sure what it was but the common infected spawns seemed to be heightened. We'd get several waves of common infected spawning, without it being an official "horde", at points.
  • I don't know who in their right mind would choose endless hordes over defeating two tanks, so that option was pretty much set in stone from the moment we saw it.

I have a video of us playing it but it won't be out for awhile, I'll update this when the video is uploaded.
