Capcom likely had a clear design and intention behind the decisions it made in terms of the progression and world structure, and I think we need games like this, that take a chance and run with it. Yes, the result is a game that feels like its ceiling was never going to be as high as the industry’s true greats, but what’s there has been iterated on so successfully I really didn’t mind.

All of Pragmata is built upon a solitary idea that slowly, bit by bit gets expanded into something much more. And this is where the game truly shines - in its constant ability to reinvent itself and to put the core gameplay into whole different contexts. It's a perfect unity between a simple but fun concept and an almost perfect execution.

Pragmata has an original combat system, some smart toys and tight engineering, yet its rhythm and structure are a touch too singular. This is no mere 3D printout, but an exercise in the pristine and clinical nonetheless. [Issue#424, p.96]

Much of what Pragamata does has been seen before in numerous other video games, but it does it all very well and the hybrid hacking/combat system at the heart of the game is both original and good fun.

Awesome game - I had tears in my eyes at the end. I highly recommend it to TLOU fans, because it has a similar emotional vibe.

Pragmata is a fun, thrilling sci-fi romp. The combat/hacking mechanic evolves the shooter genre in a refreshing way, while the tale of villainous AI, rogue 3D printers and unlikely human connection blends the horror elements with something more wholesome. This is a sleek, polished package from legendary developer Capcom that makes every minute of its to-the-point 12-hour playtime matter.

Capcom’s unstoppable streak of excellent titles continues.This time, it succeeds in a sci-fi setting, delivering stunning visuals and a deeply personal story between Hugh and Diana. Their relationship feels natural, heartfelt, and genuinely funny in all the right moments. More importantly, Pragmata achieves something truly unique, by introducing a fresh gameplay mechanic in the third-person shooter genre, seamlessly combining shooting and real-time hacking in a way that feels both innovative and satisfying.

Pragmata delivers gameplay that feels quite unique and makes strong use of it through a highly varied experience. It consistently introduces new enemies, challenges, and weapons, preventing the game from ever becoming monotonous, while placing players in environments that are both beautiful and inviting to explore. Although its story may not be its strongest aspect, it still stands as an adventure well worth playing.

Pragmata is a great sci-fi action adventure game that doesn’t demand much from its players and provides an entertaining experience throughout.

Pragmata is a surprisingly great homage to late-2000s survival horror and platforming classics with enough identity and sauce to shoot for the moon.

A compact yet intricately crafted original third-person shooter. Its blend of hacking and gunplay successfully creates a unique sense of satisfaction, though it can occasionally feel a bit unfocused, leaving you wishing for greater weapon variety and more diverse combat styles. While the overall story leaves a somewhat muted impression, the lighthearted, everyday banter between the two main characters offers a charm unlike anything found in other games.

Pragmata, which takes place in the wreckage of a futuristic moon colony, is in the lineage of The Last of Us and The Walking Dead. But it doesn’t have the same emotional bond.

El juego me encantó desde el principio, la temática es muy buena si te gustan los juegos con historias basadas en el espacio y el futuro
Las mecánicas son muy buenas y fáciles de entender, el hack de Diana no entorpece los movimientos de Hugh y eso es muy bueno

정가 주고 사기에는 아쉬운 게임. 일단 너무 짧음. 엔딩 이후 요소는 안친다. 귀찮기만 하고 딱히 의미있는 컨텐츠는 아님. 수집 요소는 당장 얻을 수 있는지 아닌지 명확히 알기 어려워서 처음에 시간 낭비하기 딱 좋음. 할인할 때 하면 괜찮은 게임일 수는 있어도 절대 정가 주고 살만한 게임은 아니라 생각한다.

3rd time lucky? Not for me; but almost. Now here was something with potential, because their cinematic department is crack:Graphics are wonderful and mechanics an appreciated pinch inventive—not that novelty was of my object*The tutorials were comfortably-gradual as opposed to say the Nioh, reading assignment **** pairing of an adorable girl child in industrial/mech settings staves off the comparative sterility of a **** those were all smooth, well-realized if I hadn’t mentioned. It’s the long, drippy letters on store pages, the strangely purposeless question about user age when starting, the menuing which asks you to confirm your choice 3 “are-you-sure’s in etc., as well as the quite badly directed quest instruction first time you get to the DLC Shelter (which leaves you semantically unclear whether the objective will be in the Shelter or back at base); how the sensitivity of the emotional framing is mismatched to the combat harshness—even if it is relatively easy – I would be averse to see the littleRider harmed, so switched to Casual mode and restarted; here, little changed! You get one heal and do the same damage, receiving quite a lot too,: just give infinite heals and tone down the damage numbers for Casual: Be as open-handed and sympatico as the cover art and you would not have wasted a great premise and IP -
– It is still a demo, Note also, PROGRAMMING UI IS AN ART WHICH TAKES EMPATHY. You cannot hire people department·wise with only high tech-skills⁏ which are bereft of skill without understanding extraneous hurdles, contortions/ ambiguities and points of counter-intuitiveness outside of gameplay challenge-factor. Keep it simple as I thought you were going to based on the chill banter and tutorials it begins with… Why I say 3rd time unlucky is because of the 3 notable games in my book that have attempted to recreate NieR:Automata’s realizational success: Stellar Blade, AI: Limit and Pragmata all have failed. Could’ve been SO cool and made CAPCOM look SO good compared to Nintendo and Sony, which have but– vast amounts of nothing on offer since dead series Zelda: Twilight Princess, Mario: Odyssey, Pokémon Emerald and Mario Kart 8 (not counting BotW, which itself was a charmingly delvable, vast amount of nothing) or gems like Spiderman 2 on PS2 or Alice: Madness Returns on the PS3 or Rise of the Tomb Raider: annoying characters and voice-acting notwithstanding (and why is Tekken’s:‘Tag Tournament” installment uniquely off stores like Emerald and Twilight Princess? neither was Tomb Raider: Legend released on Switch – they don’t reflect when having struck gold-–watermarks of casual fun). So you still have to top RE 2: Remake — with its own flaws and unmitigated annoyances like endless, arduous Mr. X chases and Ada being a ****!.
SummaryPragmata is a unique, sci-fi action-adventure game from Capcom. Follow Hugh, a member of an ill-fated investigation team, and Diana, a young android, as they navigate a lunar facility taken over by rogue AI in search of a way to Earth. At a remote lunar research facility, humanity discovers a new ore—one that, when properly refined, can ... Read More
