Shadows of Doubt (2024) | Detective Immersive Sim | 1440p60 | First 2 Cases Longplay No Commentary

Описание: Partial longplay of Shadows of Doubt, an FPP procedurally-generated, voxel-graphic, Detective Immersive Sim game, developed by British ColePowered Games, published by Fireshine Games. It started as an Early Access title, then got released into 1.0 in September 2024 for the PC, Series X/S and PS5. This here is the late October 2024 PC version of the game, played on Steam. Settings were 2560x1440 res and "performant" settings I'd call them, but the game still ran like sh*te anyway. Recorded at 1440p60 H.265 HEVC via OBS.

This here is the longplay of the first 2 cases in the game. I'm not sure if they're the same for everyone at the start, or if my seed just got me this set of cases, idk. But these are the first ones, and AFAIK the game has no end, it goes on and on and on. Therefore treat this as an extended gameplay, that is somewhat representative of the game in its October 2024 state. It's definitely outdated since then, lots of new things added probably.

============================
Shadows of Doubt takes place in an alternate history that diverges from the real world in the year 1610: Henry IV of France is not assassinated, allowing English inventor William Lee's knitting machine to spur an early industrial revolution in France. Consequently, the Jacobite rising of 1745 prevails in England and Charles Edward Stuart is crowned King Charles III, leading to lasting peace between the two countries and the subsequent formation of an Anglo-French Empire under Louis XVI, which in turn quells the American Revolution in 1776. The Empire is torn apart by rebellions during the Mustard War from 1891 to 1901, and then reorganized into the democratic United Atlantic States in 1902, which enshrines corporate personhood into law in order to rebuild its economy. In 1965, Starch Kola, the world's oldest megacorporation, is elected President of the UAS and replaces local police forces with the privatized Starch Kola Enforcers.

The current year is 1979, and the player is a citizen of the UAS. Due to hyper-industrialization, radioactive fallout from the Mustard War, and rising sea levels caused by global warming, most people live and work in cramped, smog-shrouded cities isolated by the toxic water. Every UAS citizen dreams of attaining the lofty social credit score necessary to retire to The Fields, an exclusive district purportedly located in one of the last unsullied regions. As a former police officer, the player has the skills and tools to take on freelance investigation work. Since the Enforcers are spread thin, willing citizens are permitted to investigate murders, catalog evidence, and arrest criminals in exchange for cash and social credit score promotions. The catch is that successfully solving a murder as a freelancer often involves bending or even breaking the law.
