Chorus is a space shooter and battle game developed by DEEP silver
It presents a story and events that you review
through vehicle warfare as a style of play, and it is a new experience of its
kind for the studio that gave us games such as Homefront, SAINTS ROW and Dead
island, did the developer succeed in providing a game of this type?
The main character in the game (
Nara
In the past, Nara was considered the most
fierce, bloody and fierce warrior in a religious sectarian group called the
Warriors Circle, which was characterized by its crimes against humanity
throughout the universe, but Nara separated from it and ran away after it was a
candidate to lead that sect and disappeared in one of the solar systems until
it decided To finish what she started to decide, with the help of her Forsaken
spacecraft, to fight that group and annihilate them in a journey that extended
for about 30 hours of playing to achieve its goal, which is to eliminate the
leader of that group, who was making her commit all these atrocities and crimes
in a framework of remorse and guilt for the heroine of the story for what she
committed In the past.
The story seems to be repetitive and did not
present anything new. How many a repentant villain we have seen trying to win
justice by fighting against the old allies of evil, but that did not prevent it
from being a somewhat good story.
In my view, the game also fell into the trap of
modest storytelling, since most of the story events are narrated through audio
dialogues between
game world
The game has a superior visual quality as the
game world is characterized by a large content of stunning scenery and the
quality of impressive details. It depicted the outer space in an amazing way..
chorus is one of the best spacecraft games visually because it has a huge
amount of graphics of very high quality even though you are spinning In one
space, but you will find that each area on the map is different from the other
areas.
Chorus has a semi-open world full of details
that you can navigate through and open most of its parts quickly. You will
notice the huge difference between the parts of that world in terms of the
amazing terrain around you, the intricate rock formations, the dazzling star
swirls that fill the world, the amazing visual effect associated with the star
explosions that occur around you, as well as The icy character of some parts of
the areas you pass through, as well as the dazzling visual effect of weapons,
the shapes of enemy vehicles, and the interior details of large vehicles that
you will have to enter to destroy some of their internal parts.. and other
elements of the world that the game embodied in a very great way, as it is
considered one of the great strengths that this game possesses and
distinguishes it from the rest of the shooting games or spacecraft.
Smooth driving style
Although spacecraft shooters often fall into
the trap of limited gameplay errors, whether in driving or maneuvering, Chorus
handles this in a way that may be the best of its kind.
Chorus' gameplay is so fluid that it's such an
attraction that you won't want to let go of the control or maybe get immersed
in the game and feel like you're actually driving the vehicle.
The evasive methods have also been worked out
in a wonderful and smooth manner in that game, and their mastery and
proficiency is what will swing your hand in many confrontations.
Battles and fighting styles
Complementing the strong background that the
story provides for the main character in the game, you will find that her
history as a veteran war criminal is clearly reflected in her strength in the
game. This is evident from the clear difference in strength between you and
your enemies, which is always in your favour. Difficulty accompanied by
smoothness in fighting methods and confrontations, and you will find that you
face many difficult situations, especially if you are facing a swarm of
spacecraft, and here you must show your abilities in combat and do maneuvers to
get rid of them, and you will also find some difficulty in some battles in the
Bosses that you face during Your journey to bring down the circle of warriors.
Your combat spacecraft features three types of
weapons that vary between machine guns, lasers or a missile launcher that you
can switch between them during the game based on your need for each weapon in
each confrontation and based on your opponent's defenses.
In addition to these weapons, you will find
that you have supernatural abilities that are called rituals in the game, which
in turn give you a clear advantage over the enemies. You will obtain these
rituals periodically during your journey in the game.
One of these rituals allows you to make a
comprehensive survey of the environment around you, and it is most likely a
feature or feature found in most games of all kinds.
There is also another weather that allows you
to make quick maneuvers and turns that give you a big advantage during some
battles.
These rituals are very ingeniously designed
both in terms of visual and in terms of their impact on your gameplay.
The gameplay will make you very eager to master
it and know when to use maneuvering methods to avoid enemy strikes and choose
your weapons well for each confrontation other than the other, which is what I
found from the very satisfactory attractions that characterize this game.
The game also enables you to make modifications
and upgrades, whether at the level of rituals or weapons, some of which allow
you to cast rituals faster and others that increase the damage caused by the
use of a specific weapon and others.
Various side missions
The game contains many different and attractive
side missions that I advise you to pass because it contains information
directly related to the main story and will make you understand and discover
more about the world surrounding Nara, the heroine of the story.
Game audio content
The developers of the game also paid attention
to the audio aspect of the game. In terms of the soundtrack of the game, you
will find it very enthusiastic and interesting that pushes you to complete the
events of the game with passion and give the battles a special enthusiastic
character.
The voice performance of the game characters
was also more than wonderful, especially the voice performance of the character
of Nara during the events of the game or even the whispering voice that she
spoke to herself during her flight, as well as the voice performance of
Forsaken, which is the artificial intelligence of your spacecraft that
accompanies you in all stages of your journey.

Conclusion
Chorus is a very good experience for fans of
spaceship games, as it contains a well-designed ocean world and many stunning
scenery in addition to the smooth gameplay and others that may be an experience
tainted by some defects such as poor storytelling, repetition of the story,
lack of multiple weapons and lack of Inventing new weapons, but that does not
prevent it being a good experience, which I recommend if you are a fan of this
type of games.
