Remember Me Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
When concluding Remember Me, it’s easy to think of a “missed opportunity” term, seeing its underdevelopment. However, Nilin’s quest deserves to be seen more as an ambitious effort. There’s a critical nuance in both. Its tropes may feel light, but only because they leave a yearning for much more.
On the plus side, I’d like to end the gameplay section on a positive note, memory remixing is hands down the BEST part of Remember Me, and if there is a sequel (which I sorely hope for), I would LOVE to see more memory remixing segments implemented. Sadly, there are less than a handful of these sequences, which showcases Nilin’s skills as a memory hunter/remixer, and involve the player manipulating memories in order to trick the person they’re enforcing it on to remember things incorrectly or differently. The way this transitions into gameplay is both incredibly fun and memorable, and while th...
Remember Me never comes into its own, but it's an entertaining and attractive adventure all the same.
Set in a cyberpunk vision of Paris where memory is currency, Remember Me is a third-person action-adventure teenager. It badly wants to impress its peers – and you – with its sheer weight of selfconscious stuff. On top of all the conventional action-adventure jumping and running, it throws in stealth sequences, rooftop chases, platforming and a splash of something uniquely its own. Heck, there’s
Remember Me is a third-person action adventure where players take on the role of Nilin, a former elite memory hunter with the ability to break into people's minds and steal or even alter their memories.
The combat is the real diamond in the rough and makes the journey into Neo-Paris completely worthwhile. There are plenty of mistakes, but also a few triumphs. It's hard to recommend rushing out to get this one, as it feels more like a downloadable title due to its short playtime, but I would also be remiss to suggest avoiding it completely. Ultimately, it's an excellent first attempt by DONTNOD Entertainment - and should encourage more than a few gamers to look forward to their next offering.
A fascinating story that stumbles in the parts where you have to actually play it
As it stands, Remember Me is a game that offers about six to eight hours of disposable entertainment that defines pretentiousness and will be forgotten in an inconsequential passage of time.
“Remember Me' presents a beautifully drawn, deeply flawed futureworld that brims with uneven design and unrealized potential.”
A mixture of big ideas and low-rent execution, this is one memory worth forgetting.
And that’s the thing. Remember Me suffers when it pushes its design beyond the capabilities of its mechanics, when its gameplay ambitions exceed its capacity to meet them. Most games would falter under the weight of those mechanical complications, and Remember Me eyes trouble the most pointedly when it falls prey to overused video game conventions. But Remember Me’s fiction and world-building make it more than just another running, jumping and climbing-oriented beat-‘em-up — they make it a future worth exploring.
