Superbly crafted bug-free gameplay, Graphically impressive and atmospheric environment, Brilliantly scripted dialogue, Hours of playtime and replayability
Clumsy and cumbersome combat system, Enemy AI is lacking in places, Lacks freedom of choice, Linear and restrictive in parts, No fast travel between locations
We have mixed feelings about Vampyr. There's no denying it's a beautiful, well-crafted and atmospheric vampire game. But its large world often feels like it's on strings, with the story too rigidly laid out and the consequences of choice too little.That s...

Abstract: The ambition of Vampyr is evident from the, shall we say, lofty-sounding introduction sequence. A neo-gothic tale of vampires in London during the waning days of WWI, the title plays on the more restrictive elements of British high society, combined with...
Fascinating and ambitious "simulation" of a community, Interesting take on the usual vampire tropes
Plodding pace, Long loads, half-broken systems, and the mouse and keyboard controls are unusable
And that's why I've found myself attracted to Vampyr despite all its flaws—and there are many. The combat system is clunky and unpredictable, not to mention almost unplayable with a mouse and keyboard. (Controllers work fine.) The map is essentially usele...
Vampyr would've been far better as Jonathan Reid's Point and Click Tale of Moral Adversity than what we got, which was essentially Jonathan Reid's Mashy Exercise in Combat Frustration Sparsely Sprinkled With Plot. Games do not need combat sequences if tho...
Enthralling characterizations and storytelling, Your choices have tangible, palpable impacts on the world and gameplay, Exquisite--albeit grim--rendering of London, Tonally appropriate, captivating voice acting
Egregious load times, Enemies prone to deliver cheap hits, Narrative suffers in the final chapters
Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy it a bit, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled.How we score: The destructoid reviews guide...
Abstract: It's been a while since we've had a decent Vampire-themed RPG, at least it feels that way. Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines was such a fabulous game that while I'm sure there have been other games in the Vampire RPG genre since then…I can't think of any...
De “Vampyr”, os podemos decir muchas más cosas, pero creemos que lo mejor es que seáis vosotros mismos los que descubráis esta gran sorpresa. Un título en el que las apuestas estaban muy divididas, y que finalmente ha enamorado a prensa y jugadores por su...
Stimmungsvolle, gruselige Atmosphäre, Gute Vampirgeschichte, Viele unterschiedliche Vampirfähigkeiten, Vielseitiges Gameplay, Rasantes Kampfsystem, Spieleraktionen beeinflussen den Ablauf der Geschichte
Lange Ladezeiten, Framerate nicht flüssig, Keine deutsche Sprachausgabe, Hat teilweise seine Längen, Waffen etwas öde
„Vampyr“ bietet ein temporeiches Kampfsystem, das durch zahlreiche Skills und ausbaufähige Waffen ordentlich aufgepeppt wird. Die Kämpfe sind teilweise anspruchsvoll, was das Erfolgserlebnis nach den Fights steigert. Die Story ist gut erzählt und zeitweis...
