To recap

We have mixed feelings about Vampyr. It’s certainly an enjoyable, well-crafted and atmospheric experience, but it’s also frustratingly linear in places. Maybe we’re too blood-thirsty, but we’d like more combat, less talking and the ability to drain everyone we meet on a whim, not when we’re allowed to do so. Nonetheless, Vampyr is incredibly enjoyable with hours and hours playtime for your pennies.
