I put 28 hours in 2 days.

Red Faction Guerrilla destruction on a massive scale leads to a limitless amount of areas for firefights to break out at.

This game is one of a kind.
I strongly recommend it, actually playing it is completely different from watching it. Avoid save-scumming if you can, it takes away from the magic.


My first every run I started off as a slave. A simple scorchlander, who was captured by the Holy Nation. I was unsure what exactly to do, so I stayed a slave for 80 in-game days. Approximately 9 hours in real time. I did my duty, and trained various skills such as sneak, lockpicking, and toughness for when I got my ass beat. Slowly but surely, I started to dream of escaping. I began stealing and stockpiling food in the building where my cell was. I began sneaking out at night, and unlocking other slave's shackles. The slaves were starting to try and revolt/escape. This caused havoc and chaos in the slave camp. However, there was still way too many guards. So I continued doing this, planting the seed of rebellion every night. I recruited 2 other people and together we were going to escape.

The day came when it was now or never, angry slaves by the dozen started to revolt against the Holy Nation. I saw this as my opportunity and took all my food. The three of us began to make a run for it, we were got pretty far but then the guards took notice. We had about 20+ guards chasing after us. Luckily, my main guy was FAST. I trained and did sprints everyday while in the slave camp, in hopes that I would one day be able to outrun the guards. My other two friends however were not as fast... We got to the exit and ambushed by a patrol right outside the gate. I lost my arm!!! My damn arm was cut off by these bastards. I noticed my two other friends were knocked unconscious and carried back to the camp..... I ran into the desert without an arm and clueless on how to survive. I vowed to return and rescue my two friends.

130 hours later, I had recruited quite the entourage, and we built a camp about 30 miles to the south. We were growing strong, and the Holy Nation took a notice. My main guy who started it all eventually lost every limb through combat. I replaced his limbs with the strongest prosthetic limbs in the desert. I was a deadly martial artist. The time had come to wage war against the Holy Nation. We began leaving our camp and hitting patrols and capturing key leaders. Crucifying them on front of our fortified camp.

We eventually marched back to the slave camp with 15 warriors and slaughtered the Holy Nation, freeing all the slaves. Where were my friends? They were nowhere to be found.....Maybe they made it out? Or maybe 2 years of excruciating labor killed them. I wish we reunited and I could of told them tales on what I've seen out there..

This is merely one small slither of the story. In between escaping, was hundreds of struggles and adventures.

Kenshi is one of a kind.

Gameplay is amazing. Seriously brings you back to the days when first person shooters were FUN.
Just buy it, it's worth it.

Main game vibes

Red Barrels does NOT miss!

The fact that this is early access is insane to me. You could tell a ton of passion went into this and will continue to get attention and further development. The survey for the game shows the full scope/vison they have for this game.

CO-OP Outlast gameplay with phenomenal missions, progression, and other modes I have yet to discover.

The moment I got hit by a psychosis mine after running from a bad guy, into another bad guy, into the mine. Hearing my friend who was hiding under a desk next to me talk and his voice echo'ed as if I actually just got my world rocked. Barely can make out what they're saying. It was that moment, I knew I was playing a game that was developed with true passion and attention to detail.

+For including proximity chat (Highly recommend avoiding Discord or other third party voice chats)


I'd like to see increased difficulty in enemies. Though I have only done 1 Trial, it took 60 minutes for me and my bud to get through. The enemies could use some better perception and increased range before their attention falls off. Maybe this gets better as you progress more.


Overall,
Totally recommend, I'm beyond excited for the future of this game.

Fun, unique gameplay which isn't replicated anywhere else. Takes me back to the M&B Napoleonic War days. The historical accuracy is very much appreciated and replicates an authentic experience. However, the true heart of this game comes in the community. I'm not referring to the idiotic racist that are unavoidable (these people can be muted very easily by pressing E on them or on the scoreboard). The great leaders of this game make the experience one of a kind. If you're on the fence for this game, just grab it. I've been on the fence since it was announced in 2018. I wish I would of gotten into it way sooner.

Fantastic game, fun combat once you get the hang of it.
You could tell clearly that the developer loves the game they're creating.


Some extra love, care, and content will make this the best gladiator game developed.

TLDR: Tarkov for those who have a life + spaceship combat/boarding

Floating buildings, novel destruction gets old fast.

Play Red Faction Guerilla for a true destruction experience that takes place in an open world environment

Amazing experience for early access. I could only hope that this game stays supported with content updates because what is here now is so good. Some tender love and care and hard work could make this one of the greatest PVE games in a long time.

Best rogue-like game on the market. Brutal and unforgiving.
