    The graphics in "The First Odyssey" are surprisingly appealing, featuring a sci-fi horror aesthetic with well-designed command consoles and panels. However, many users suspect that the visuals are derived from stock assets, leading to concerns about originality despite their initial impressive appearance.

    • “+ nice graphics”
    • “The first odyssey is a weird train wreck of an apparently abandoned game; don't let the visuals fool you either, I suspect a lot of the game is made from flipped stock assets.”
    • “The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are 'borrowed' from asset stores or wherever.”
    • “The visuals scream out 'sci-fi horror' with their futuristically intimidating line of command consoles, panels, and keycard readers.”

    The gameplay is criticized for being riddled with bugs and incoherent design, leading to a frustrating experience without save options. While it has some redeeming qualities, it ultimately feels like a filler to the story, suggesting that players might be better off watching a playthrough rather than engaging with the game themselves.

    • “While it doesn’t quite know what to do with them at times, it has got the necessary bits down gameplay-wise.”
    • “I’d even go as far to say it would have deserved a paragraph or two in the pros section, but then something so heinous and so damning came to light… and that is, the gameplay acted as filler to the story, which is super weird to hear out loud because usually it would be the other way around!”
    • “It's a bug-riddled disaster with no saves, a lot of bugs, incoherent design, and terrible gameplay and writing.”
    • “Both the gameplay and story make it abundantly clear this is one of those games where you’re much better off just watching a playthrough video in its entirety and you wouldn’t miss out on anything!”
    • “The gameplay acted as filler to the story, which is super weird to hear out loud because usually it would be the other way around!”

    The story is perceived as underdeveloped and lacking depth, with some players suggesting that watching a playthrough might be more rewarding than playing the game itself.

    • “It's sufficiently transparent that the story wasn't thought up in a day; a week maybe at most, but definitely not a day!”

    • “Both the gameplay and story make it abundantly clear this is one of those games where you’re much better off just watching a playthrough video in its entirety and you wouldn’t miss out on anything!”

    • “It’s sufficiently transparent that the story wasn’t thought up in a day, a week maybe at most, but definitely not a day!”
    • “The game has very serious bugs, such as not allowing you to take key items to advance the story.”
