DLCs should have been addressed. Total DLC cost: 173€ or 123€ on steam sale. Which are needed or worth it etc.? Do you really want to get hooked on a game that asks for 120/170€ ?
Sigh, maybe if people learn to read, the problem would be fixed. 90% of dlc are just extra cosmetic and different outpost spots (a 0 threat map Where you just build) Only styx and Prometheus dlc are Worth getting (new maps)
@@Name-bb8wo New Frontiers is 29,99€and Styx is 19,50€. I like New Frontiers more as it gives us more alien-looking (not Xenomorphs but just more alien than wolves and bears) creatures and environments. Styx and base map has too Earth-like creatures, which for me is a bit immersion breaking.
There's a lot of that with these review videos. He's obviously not a regular player. The game has grown and evolved so much that there's a ton of outdated info online and these reviewers don't really take the time to sort though it all.
FML that was hard to listen to. I couldn't get through all of it, either. And the constant 'mission' and 'story is so goal orientated' was a little annoying.
Fortunately, you can use the 3rd party mod manager and run in creative mode (and lot more) and it's still work, it's a lot less grindy..yet, I am glad I played through the first three times on Normal difficulty and no cheats. Now I just try different ways of doing things I want to do, like building, farming, exotics gathering rather than spending most of the time grinding (as much), really enjoying it nowadays. It's worth it. Just buy it over time, watch for the sales. Because Olympus will take up a lot of time..no need to rush.. Lots of content in the original game. It'll get you ready for Styx...
Icurus is the best survival game I know of and there is open world where you can stay forever and even do the missions in that open world this game does have weekly updates it's far better then 90 percent of triple a games
Yes It is worth playing in 2024! There's regular updates each friday, which are huge updates almost every time, and the game has TONS UPON TONS of content and freedom of things you can do. I got 1,500 hours in that game and I'm still enjoying it. The only thing that I don't like about the game are the DLCs, because they are rather expensive and theres a lot of them. I'd still recommend to buy all of them. My recommended playstyle is having an Open World game where you do all your building and such, and then from time to time, you do some of the missions on other worlds. Thats how I play it for ages now and I'm constantly having fun switching between worlds and doing different missions.
My only problem coming in from Sons of the Forest is that in Icarus I feel like the enemies are a bit underwhelming. I was expecting to see hostile alien lifeforms but all I see are just wildlifes. I see in the other videos that there is a worm boss so we need more of that.
I love this game a lot I put a lot of hours in it. and the devs are awesome with updates. they work really hard on it and listen to the community. I recommend it. the crafting and building are amazing. 👍
Propably should point out the price too, i just checked it in steam and with all the dlc's combined the dam thing is 140€ Sure the base game is 34€ which is fair, but if you want to acces the full game, better fork out 140€
Probably you should've at least checked what those DLCs are, as 80% are cosmetics and stuff like pets that does not impact the gameplay at all. The only content that does is in the Styx and Prometheus DLCs, which add new maps with a lot more alien look to everything. I got a copy of the base game for myself and my wife + 1x both of these DLCs for just €60 on sale, which is more than fair. You _do_ know that only the host needs to have DLC maps, right? :)
Only the starting world is Earth-like, and the lore bits explain why as you progress through the missions. The more alien-looking worlds are available with the two DLCs: Styx and Prometheus, although those also present a much bigger challenge due to more extreme weather and fauna
Ive been trying it during the free weekend and the graphics are kinda blurry, not like low resolution but like just not very sharp or detailed. Tried changing all the settings i cant tell if its just the game or what.
Is this a Single Player Offline game? Meaning; can I play this game as a single player offline solo with no internet connection? How many hours of content is there? Thank you
El único problema es en primera persona. No si limita los jugadores. Existen cientos de miles de personas que no juegan en primera persona porque los mareos. No entiendo porque los creadores de juegos dañan los juegos por esta razón. Limitan las opciones del juego. Mira el ejemplo. El juego de Avatar, no prosperó por ser en primera persona.
I am 104 hours in, what had me was starving to death! I did not know you could consume the blue stuff, oxide, after that the game opened up! What i would suggest is to on easy mode, on open world, in storms find a big rock and make a tunnel you will survive, the forest biom is best for new players, do not make thatch nothing, thunder storms well lightning means fire and a swiftt death, bows and arrows rock, crouch down and hunt you will get easy kills, some lakes have parranahs so do not go skinny dipping, while some lakes also have caves you can swim through for treasures the otherside and sometimes exotics, if you stay in a cave to long you get cave sickness, but later on you can make a device called a dehumidifer and you do not get sick, also make bangages asap, wolves and bores and BEARS in the Riverland - Best of Luck! Good Video BTW!
Hi there..Good video. I really like this game...at times its a very bruta gamel lol. I very disappointed in the fact that its like playing on earth..instead of the supposed alien planet. I really hope they add si fi tech to it. Which is why I bought the game for the alien aspect of it.
its sad the devs did all this work to make this incredibly indepth survival game but filled it with dated, awful UI HUD elements that break immersion and make this a game i wouldn't touch with a 10ft pole. the king of survival sim realism is DayZ by a longshot. the PvE survival (cuts, diseases, nutrition, etc.) is the most indepth youll find by a longshot, however the PvE combat is its weakest point. Icarus could have been that PvE co-op survival sim everyone wanted but they opted for dated progression, menus/huds. its an eyesore to look at.
Dayz buildings and world looks crappy and there is no base building and no tech tree or character skill. Icarus looks good enough for me to try rather than dayz. I just bought it. Gonna give it a try now.
Combat in day z is horrible the cheaters in dayz are horrible dayz has 1000 times more bugs then icurus I've played both and have over 1000 hours in both icurus is far better and much more polished and it's immersive if you actually fallow the story

@@badwrongbadong Literally the two most expensive ones that add up to the majority of that total.
it just 2 mounts on wow
While icarus is a great game, god damn there is a lot of misinformation in this video. Guess the reviewer didnt bother to look up open world content.
There's a lot of that with these review videos. He's obviously not a regular player. The game has grown and evolved so much that there's a ton of outdated info online and these reviewers don't really take the time to sort though it all.
The game is absolutely horrendous about being clear with what the modes and content all means.
I couldn't endure the review. This was incredibly painful to listen to
Yes, slow down!!
FML that was hard to listen to. I couldn't get through all of it, either. And the constant 'mission' and 'story is so goal orientated' was a little annoying.

0:41 THAT'S ME! 😂I don't mind but if you could link to the players' channels that would be nice. I saw about 10 different player names.

Then why do the equipment deliveries not work 60% of the time?
@@zachburskey8868 Idk, 60% is maybe a bit much. I didnt have that issue that many times.
The equipment drops worked 100 percent of the time for me
You don't mention whether this game is offline or online, do I require to join a server or not? WTF!

you sound like stitch! from lilo and stitch! in a good way!
My biggest gripe is the world looks no more alien than middle America.
Only the starting world is Earth-like, and the lore bits explain why as you progress through the missions. The more alien-looking worlds are available with the two DLCs: Styx and Prometheus, although those also present a much bigger challenge due to more extreme weather and fauna

Thanks for the review, might pick it up as its currently on sale!
Hope you enjoy it!
Was going to comment that you should leave subtitles on for your whole video but I see that even subtitles you can't write properly...
The subtitles are auto-generated, he did not write them...
@@KetaFPV Not talking about the auto-generated youtube subtitles, talking about the forced one integrated into the video.
@@Xantanash Ahh fair enough, I don't think I got that far in the video to even see those 🤣
@@Xantanash LOL scrap my last comment, I'm dumb they were there from the literal start.

thinking of streaming this. looks interesting
nobody cares or will watch. not every loser needs to stream it doesn't make you less repugnant.
Hi there..Good video. I really like this game...at times its a very bruta gamel lol. I very disappointed in the fact that its like playing on earth..instead of the supposed alien planet. I really hope they add si fi tech to it. Which is why I bought the game for the alien aspect of it.
Looks identical to Empyrion - Galactic Survivor...which is highly repetitive.
Basically satisfactory with green hell
Only thing it has in common with satisfactory is the guys helmet
By 2160p60 did you mean 144p?
Icarus is a blatant asset dump. 2/10.
What are you talking about have you played icurus
Pal world jaisa hai😂
šišla

@@JohnJeyaPratama no base building in Dayz, are you smoking crack?
DayZ is absolute garbage, graphics are shit there's no sense of realism, the guns and such are cool but that's about it
Combat in day z is horrible the cheaters in dayz are horrible dayz has 1000 times more bugs then icurus I've played both and have over 1000 hours in both icurus is far better and much more polished and it's immersive if you actually fallow the story
I mean rust is better then dayz the only thing that makes dayz kinda good is the mods
