  • story
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story aspect is primarily driven by a roguelike mission structure that offers a variety of randomized objectives and environments, which can lead to repetitive gameplay over time. While the missions are generally engaging and provide a solid gameplay loop, players have noted a lack of handcrafted narrative elements and a predictable pattern in mission types as they progress. Overall, the absence of a cohesive story or character development detracts from the potential depth of the experience, leaving players desiring more unique and narrative-driven content.

    • “The roguelike mission mode is incredibly fun and very compelling considering the limited scope of gameplay at this point.”
    • “These missions provide a decent variety of objectives and some great terrain to navigate through while you complete them.”
    • “Just like some really special, handcrafted missions.”
    • “The missions feel largely similar as well, with no real difference between enemies or locations.”
    • “After 10 hours (including my time in the demo), I feel I am starting to see patterns in the enemy combinations and mission structures, which is becoming predictable.”
    • “I can't recommend this game until the mission system is changed to choose objectives appropriately scaled to your current loadout.”
  • gameplay
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is described as a fun and addictive blend of arcade-style drone simulation and arena shooter mechanics, with solid flight controls and a rewarding gameplay loop. While the game is still in early development and could benefit from improvements in music and user interface, it offers a unique experience that appeals to both seasoned FPV pilots and newcomers. Overall, the core mechanics are well-received, making it an enjoyable and engaging title despite some minor flaws.

    • “The gameplay loop is fun, like an arcade game version of a drone sim, and the aesthetics remind me of mech games I've loved.”
    • “Breathes new life into the FPV sim world with innovative dogfighting style gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay loop of the main roguelike game mode is pretty addictive and there's plenty of map and enemy variety plus a lot of unique unlockable gadgets after each mission.”
    • “The gameplay also does not meaningfully encourage or promote more aggressive 'dodging' playstyles.”
    • “The lack of music is very noticeable; this type of gameplay pushes you toward a flow state and would feel a lot better with a high-intensity soundtrack backing it.”
    • “The roguelike mission mode is incredibly fun and very compelling considering the limited scope of gameplay at this point.”
  • graphics
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the aesthetic reminiscent of mech games and the smooth performance, while others criticize the art style as cluttered and lacking detail. Many agree that despite the graphical shortcomings, the engaging gameplay compensates for the visual issues, making it a fun experience overall. However, there are calls for improvements, particularly in detail and style, to enhance the overall presentation.

    • “The gameplay loop is fun, like an arcade game version of a drone sim, and the aesthetics remind me of mech games I've loved.”
    • “Absolutely sensational game, in my top 5, the drones feel so realistic (got my drone pilot license in real life) the graphics are superb, could do with a little more detail on the guns in my opinion. Speaking of guns, they feel powerful; it feels really good taking out a boss with streams of rockets. The time trial events are superb too, and there's a lot to choose from. There's no actual music in the game, which suits me; I can have my own tunes in the background. Amazing work from the devs, who are really active on the Firehawk FPV Discord. All around, top-notch game; I would have paid more, to be honest.”
    • “The graphics and feel of this game are reminiscent of Japanese mecha games.”
    • “Graphically, it doesn't really do much for me personally; I dislike the art style.”
    • “Visuals are cluttered, and I don't really know what I should be looking at.”
    • “However, the graphics are just terrible.”
  • music
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with many users noting a significant lack of in-game music, which detracts from the overall experience and intensity of gameplay. While the main menu music is praised for its energizing effect, it can become repetitive, and players feel that a dynamic soundtrack would enhance immersion during levels. Some players appreciate the absence of music, allowing them to play their own tunes, but overall, there is a strong desire for more varied and engaging music throughout the game.

    • “The main menu music gets me absolutely pumped to play.”
    • “Having some action-packed intense music would go a long way during the actual levels, and non-repetitive music at that.”
    • “Absolutely sensational game, in my top 5... there's no actual music in the game, which suits me, I can have my own tunes in the background anyhoo.”
    • “Gameplay itself seems a little bland only due to the lack of music.”
    • “Also, the lack of music is very noticeable; this type of gameplay pushes you toward a flow state and would feel a lot better with a high intensity soundtrack backing it.”
    • “Also, the main menu soundtrack gets annoying really quickly, and in the game itself there’s no music at all.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's optimization receives mixed reviews; while some players report excellent performance and satisfying gameplay, others experience frame rate drops and feel that graphics could be improved, especially on higher-end systems. The performance on devices like the Steam Deck is deemed acceptable but not outstanding, leading to a consensus that while the game is enjoyable, there is room for enhancement in optimization.

    • “Great performance and very satisfying flight simulation.”
    • “Performance is excellent (I mean I have a maxed out laptop but still), graphics look good, and there's plenty of challenge and unlocks to keep you busy for tens of hours if not longer.”
    • “Really fun game, and even though the graphics and performance could be way better for the price they’re asking, it’s still a lot of fun and really helps you practice.”
    • “Performance-wise, the game sometimes drops in FPS on M4.”
    • “Speaking of Steam Deck, the performance is okay, but not great.”
    • “I wish the devs made the graphics and performance a bit better on higher-end gaming PCs, but I still had a lot of fun playing it.”

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players have mixed feelings about the game's replayability; some appreciate its infinite rogue-like elements, while others feel it lacks sufficient content, such as PvP, to enhance replay value. Overall, there is a desire for additional features to improve the replay experience.

    • “The game offers what feels like infinite rogue-like replayability.”
    • “I hope they add more content like PvP to enhance the replayability.”
    • “For me, the game's replayability isn't there yet.”
    • “Just hope they add more content like PvP or more replayability.”
