Overview No One Lives Forever (attempt No. 2)

Again I do a review by Monolith’s creation. This time NOFL, published in 2000. People survived the problem of two thousand and now solved the question of whether the new millennium has come now, in 2000, or only a year later, in 2001. In Russia, Putin came to power, in the USA George Bush. The magnificent set -top box Sega Dreamcast was destroyed. The year was full of various events and the release of the spy Parody game NOFL was not lost, and Monolith once again proved that she can make games.
Either a girl, or a vision
The game takes place in the 60s and is a parody of the Bondian separately and on all spy militants in general. Great parody in my opinion. We play for Kate Archer, a former thief who threw this noble profession in order to become a spy in a certain government organization Unity. Unfortunately, she was not entrusted with important tasks, citing the fact that she is a woman, and is it possible for a woman to entrust male work? Therefore, she was engaged in routine – wiretapping, surveillance, etc.D. Nothing interesting.

Help came from where no one was waiting for. The one -eyed Russian methodically and purposefully began to destroy the operational agents of Unity, leaving Lily at the scene of the crime. Of all the operational agents, Kate Archer remains and not seeing the way out, the leadership, reluctantly, sends it to the assignment. She will meet their expectations? Yes. Kate will fail both the first and second task. And the third … This is a tie of a very good plot, full of humor and colorful characters, of which there is a sea: an American agent, a broad -shouldered healthy man reminding me of a lumberjack, with a crazy taste in clothes and with an eternal smile. Sometimes the feeling is created that his upper lip is cut off. The pumped up Scunted in Kilt, with a cigar in his lips and in the eternal squint, as if he had put a coin there and tries to keep it. NPC talks about life, invite friends to concerts and complain about the singing of Ingner, villain, granddaughters of Richard Wagner, singing really terrible. NPC is generally smart in this game. Too smart. Because of this, the undertaking with stealth failed.

Orlets learn to fly
And how well it https://gamesnotongamstop.co.uk/ all began. Installed the cameras on most locations, attached dark nooks, a muffler was given to the gun, the tel and coin solvent to divert attention were given to the gadgets. But it did not work. The guards see everything. They perfectly hear the sound of Kate’s steps, although go along the carpet, at least on the metal floor, they react to the light of the flashlight, if you shine on them or next to them, then they begin to shoot then (who should learn from the guards from Splinter Cell. Maybe they will understand that the three luminous circles in the dark is strange), plus Miss Archer does not make the player easier, flaunting in a white-orange suit, because of this it is problematic to hide in the dark corner. Therefore, the stealth ends with the enemy shirt from the AK-47.
Fortunately, stealth is not the basis of gameplay, otherwise the game would go to the garbage basket. Before us is a classic first -person shooter, very atmospheric, enemies can run from anywhere, they everywhere, alone even took me through the closed door. Kate is a fragile girl, health, until you go through the whole huge card consisting of hugs, it will not recover, only we are a bulletproof vest and saves us, which in this game is made in a first -aid kit. In addition to body armor, Kate helps to get out of dangerous situations a variety of weapons and, like in any good spy work, gadgets.

Just like James Bond
In addition to the aforementioned solvent of bodies and coins in the arsenal, Kate has: solar scoom glasses, lipstick, playing the role of grenades, a buckle in the form of a symbol of Venus, which is also a cat. And I slightly touched the variety of gadgets. I have not yet called a robot-podel, a code cracker, a lighter-welding apparatus and a hairpin. It is interesting and cheerful to use all this indecent, the creations of the inquisitive minds of Unity engineers do not lie in the dead load in the inventory, but they really help to go through the game, although I still did not understand the catch with the welding machine. Maybe played little. On some hinged locks it works, most does not.
In addition to Kate gadgets, a variety of weapons helps. I repeat, AK-47 is out of competition. But when it is necessary to act quietly, a Walter with a silencer or a rifle will offer his services, and if the absence of AK, you can find a sterling machine gun or a second submachine gun-Walter PM. But besides real weapons, there is a fictional-a portfolio-racer and a laser pistol used at a space station.

Quarreled with a program to remove screenshots. Therefore, while we look at the maid, until we make peace with her.

Kate Archer will visit not only space. She will travel around the world, go to Marko, in Germany, dives to the bottom of the ocean with a harpoon in her hands, will fall from a plane that fell right in the air and escape from a sinking ship. Miss Archer will not have to get bored, and the player with her. At each level, the developers generously left secret documents, letters, dossiers, bobbins and briefcases that a spy should find and take, although this is not necessarily. In addition to the non -bored secrets, each card is full of pleasant little things that make it alive. It can be seen that locations were made with love. There is not a single empty or ill -conceived room or corridor. And with the same love, the sound design of the game was made. Music as if from the 60s, even voiced the basement of Kablukov Kate.(If the sound of female heels sounds for you paradise music, then download the game without hesitation. The camera still shakes when the player walks, creating the feeling that she wags her hips) and what unpleasant creak the spinning Signs of the Unity in their headquarters. And how water splashes when Kate goes through a sinking ship. The sound worked perfectly. I even dare to recommend playing in headphones. I would assess 9.5 and calm down on this. But unfortunately it did not work out. The trouble came unexpectedly.
Version for aliens
It consists in the fact that the inability to change the layout. You tell me nonsense and find fault? We shoot at the F button, we only turn the mouse.Comfortable? The solutions to the problem are too radical – install Win 2000 or DireCst 8.1 English, delve into the code. Fortunately, I managed to detect a changed confusion and now I shoot through the right mouse button, like a white person. After copying the Confe, the fact that the heroes in the videos did not agree on phrases and sentences. Playability has increased at times.
Pros: gadgets, plot, sound, interesting tasks
Cons: stealth and the inability to change the layout without shamanism.
Verdict: 8.5/10
