If you still want to try it, I recommend you to avoid playing it on hard level. Anyway, there are a few moments in the game that are almost impossible to pass without cheating (not because of enemies, but because of the increased complexity of actions that must be done).

Cant play very far, got stuck in 3rd person and I am in another room away from the camera. Seems to be no control over when 3rd person comes on. The bound keys don't control it. Most frustrating. Big download, good setup installer. Unplayable. 1/5 Looks good. Cant play very far, got stuck in 3rd person and I am in another room away from the camera.

In AoR, you were destined to destroy a virus, and in the end, you do, or did you? RiP picks up where it left off, and it seems you yourself were infected and have become a carrier of this mind altering disease, and you are the unknown host bringing the virus to your home of Portown. Good story, and as such, you go around killing everything that moves. Zombies, soldiers, etc. The only bad things I can say about this are minor. First, there are a lot of colors, like neon colors. Second, it might be too hard for some folks, but fortunately, there is a patch to make it easier. And lastly, I got stuck in third person view once, and had to resort to uninstalling, then reinstalling the mod. After that, it worked fine. The third person is definitely unique, and there are some places in which it is indispensable. It reminds me of Splinter Cell and Hitman, though certainly not as polished. Overall, this mod is cool, so you should probably go get it. Rating: 4/5
Good: All new textures, people, etc; unique saving system; first/third person views available.
Bad: The colors burn my eyes!; third person is somewhat hard to play in.

It seems such a waste of some very good work and top class mapping that we finish up with a game almost unplayable. The level of hardness and complexity set by the authors results in a game without fun, no flow and poor balance of all the gameplay elements. I am aways worried about posting a negative view relative to a game which has so much petention, new ldeas and top class design from a very talented team of mappers, but at the end of the day if you produce a game without fun and near impossible to play, then whats the point.
