GOG Giveaway: Dex

Recommended Posts

Includes the Extra Outfits DLC.

Explore, fight, talk and hack your way through a rich cyberpunk world in this 2D action-RPG!

Wanted dead by a mysterious and far-reaching organization, you will traverse the futuristic city of Harbor Prime and make unexpected allies on your quest to bring down the system! In this cyberpunk adventure inspired by Blade Runner and Neuromancer, you are free to choose your playstyle: will you be a silent assassin, a hacker, a diplomat or a straightforward gunfighter?

Designed as a throwback to earlier 2D platforming and action games combined with modern RPG elements, Dex offers real-time combat, a mature storyline and interactive dialogues.

Customize your character’s skills, equipment and even augmentations – implants which grant you superhuman abilities and open up new paths within the game’s open world.

A revolutionary hacking mechanic also lets you dive into Cyberspace: overcome viruses and intrusion countermeasures to deactivate turrets, overload devices, steal corporate data and cripple your enemies!

Interesting - looks like a cockpit-less Descent 3 from the video

I have seen more than a few comments like that. I never had played Descent, but from the description it sounds similar. This was way back in the days before "open worlds" were commonly used in games (the first gen Unreal Engine was released in 1998), and shooter games were mostly constrained to halls and walls, or tunnels. I really enjoyed the 6 degrees of freedom of movement and the soundtrack in Forsaken. :)

You just made me remember that I played "Descent: Freespace" back in the day. Not the same, I understand, but the GOG page for Descent had a link to that one!

I have Freespace 2 in my GOG library. Picked it up on sale at some point. Need to give it some attention! :)
