"Left Alive is a bundle of genuinely brilliant ideas, let down by frequently shoddy execution. A resoundingly anti-war war game, with a deep understanding of the way that war complicates personal and societal morality, Left Alive asks all the right questions that a game about war should. It also does a great job of making that sense of survival as desperate as it should. If only there was the technical competence behind it, to support those great ideas." ... Read full review

"Left Alive has many good ideas. Some of them are well-executed and many others are not. It’s a shame that many of these issues are on the gameplay side, but if you really like the concept, you can manage to enjoy it." ... Read full review

"I’d stay as far away from Left Alive as possible. For all of you hardcore Front Mission fans hoping for a proper sequel in the series, you can bury those hopes and dreams. With a team consisting of so much talent behind it, I truly wonder what went wrong with Left Alive. I love Square Enix games to death typically but this is frankly unacceptable…and it’s $60." ...

"With so many narrative, technical and gameplay issues that pop up at almost every turn — all wound up within some of the worst third-person stealth mechanics imaginable — Left Alive is both a horridly-conceived experience and a fundamentally unenjoyable product to even attempt to immerse one’s self in." ...

"In a few days, once the papers are about to finish it, Left Alive will return to anonymity from the beginning, carrying with it the secret of its existence. Thanks to it, we remembered the charisma of PlayStation's Front Mission years ago and how incredible Metal Gear is on so many aspects. An incomprehensible and catastrophic attempt to survive and infiltrate, bad on all fronts, Left Alive deserves now to rest in peace." ... Read full review

Really challenging, and extremely satisfying game.
Today too often there are very simplified games, to go against the needs of everyone, but this game is an exception.

Left Alive brought me back to a level of challenge and difficulty, which I now found only in the real Dark Souls games.
Proposing a really high rate of trust, an engaging storyline, and the mechanics that appear to be sufficiently defined to be able to embroider an experience worthy of this kind of games.

A remarkable experience from the beginning to the end.
This game is able to leave you with a sense of high satisfaction.
Which happens to me only with the most difficult challenges. As with the most complex bosses in the Dark Souls saga.
The plot is good, and the soundtrack turns out to be really impressive in some situations.
Beautiful, fulfilling, it is with excellent ideas for a large narrative story.
I feel fortunate to have played today in a game that contains, in such a complex way, those characteristics that make it one of the undervalued masterpieces of this generation.

Left Alive has so much promise to be at least decent. Let's go for the positives

The art style looks fantastic as it from the same artist
Left Alive has so much promise to be at least decent. Let's go for the positives

The art style looks fantastic as it from the same artist who the works of Metal Gear Solid Franchise which was so great to see. The world is filled with so much interesting thing like with giant mechs and taking place at this dystopia world in Russia. The graphics here you look really good and I have no problems with it. The voice actors/actress is meh but I could tell that they put in a lot of effort

The things I hate about it is that it's copying Metal Gear Solid entirely. From the graphics, character design, mechs, art styles, gameplay, and even the story. The script that the voice actors were given were garbage, cartoonish and not at all talking itself seriously.

In fact, I had people who think that this a spin-off series to the MGS franchise which I wouldn't disagree with. Honestly, Left Alive had so much promise but all it did it just sink down even further.
Would not buy it if I was you. Just go back and actually MGS series. They are literally pieces of art

Can't really say much more than that apart from: Skyrim outclasses this game in its stealth mechanics, which is terrible considering stealth is such a minor part of the ES series.

Also, it is really sus to see so many positive reviews that have been written by accounts that have only reviewed THIS game. Some might even get the impression that there are paid reviews on here.
