Honestly, the combat is really satisfying when Bright Memory: Infinite gets things right, and on a par with the best FPS games out there.
You also have an array of powers that can pull enemies closer to you, slam your fist into the ground, or throw your sword out to create a swirling whirlwind of sharpened death. Again, this feels tremendous to use, especially when deflecting a melee attack from an opponent, before launching them in the air and then shooting them back down again with a well placed shotgun blast. Then there’s your sword which can slice up enemies at close range, as well as block and deflect attacks. The gunplay is really satisfying, with each gun feeling powerful, being able to take out most enemies with a couple of well placed shots. You’ll fight your way through waves of enemies using your standard array of guns - pistol, shotgun, assault rifle, and sniper rifle, each with an alternate fire - and your sword alongside an array of time manipulating powers. Every few seconds you’ll be moving from combat encounter to combat encounter, with a little bit of traversal in between. With that said, it’s unlikely you’re here for the story, as Bright Memory: Infinite is all about fast-action melee and gunplay, and it has that in spades. Gun fights are fast paced and demand you make good use of your special abilities, especially on the higher difficulties. If you were hoping for some explanation or continuation from Bright Memory, then you’re out of luck. There are constantly more things happening, with other characters who aren’t explained, enemies that resemble ancient warriors accompanied by modern soldiers, and occasional wild boar attacks.
Beyond that, I couldn’t really tell you what was going on in the story, nor how it relates to the previous game in the series. On new year’s eve, a black hole appears over a mountainous region of China, and Shelia is dispatched to investigate. In Bright Memory: Infinite, you take on the role of Shelia, an agent working for SRO, a company that investigates strange phenomena. Bright Memory: Infinite is this team’s sequel/full version of this, and whilst it certainly brings a lot more content, it also takes a few steps backwards. A fast-paced FPS game with melee elements and super powers that looked gorgeous, it had a lot going for it, and, although brief, it was a great proof of concept to get a developer’s name out there.
Is Bright Memory: Infinite infinitely better than its predecessor?īright Memory from FYQD Studio was something of a surprise hit, not least because it was from such a small and inexperienced development team.
