Über das Spiel

Nachdem Hellgate: London ein sogenannter Schuss in den Ofen war, versucht nun der neue Publisher T3Fun das Spiel unter dem neuen Namen Hellgate neu wiederzubeleben.

Hellgate: London spielt in naher Zukunft in einer durch eine Dämoneninvasion verwüsteten Welt und einer trostlosen, vom Höllenfeuer verbrannten Stadt. Als einer der letzten überlebenden Londoner musst du Wissenschaft und Magie vereinen, um gegen die Diener der Dunkelheit stand zu halten und die Blutlinie der Menschheit retten zu können.

Hellgate: London verbindet die spielerische Tiefe eines Rollenspiels mit der Action eines Ego-Shooters und bietet dabei dank dynamisch generierter Levels, Gegenstände, Gegner und Ereignissen eine unendliche Wiederspielbarkeit. Erschaffe dir deinen heldenhaften Charakter, erfülle Quests und kämpfe dich durch unzählige Dämonenhorden, um in den Erfahrungsstufen aufzusteigen und verzweigte Fähigkeitenbäume zu füllen. Dank des umfassenden, flexiblen Fähigkeiten- und Zauberspruchsystems, des enorm anpassbaren Aussehens und der riesigen Auswahl an zufällig generierten Ausrüstungsgegenständen erschaffst du dir deinen individuellen, einzigartigen Helden.

Hellgate London ist ein solides Spiel: ballern, Beute machen, Skillpunkte verteilen. Angesiedelt im vom Dämonen befallenen London. Die Grafik ist angestaubt und die Texturen waren 2008 schon häßlich. Ebenso ist das Leveldesign sehr einfallslos.
Aber es hat mir zu Erscheinen trotzdem viel Spaß gemacht, obwohl die Technik sehr anfällig war.
Mit der Steamversion wollte ich mir nun ein kurzweiliges Erlebnis gönnen: ballern, Beute machen, Skillpunkte verteilen. Lol. Hatte ich mir so gedacht. Irgendwann gehen die fps so runter, dass es nach Einfrieren des Bildes aussieht. Solche Bugs hatte ich schon 2008! Hier hat sich gar nichts an der Technik getan.
Macht Spaß, ja. Aber funktioniert nicht.
Nicht kaufen.

Best game ever made. A few guys broke away from Blizzard (because Blizzard sucks) and used their experience working on Diablo to make this first person shooter, or third person slasher game. Really amazing and fun game. Great combat and level progression, its like open world with main hubs. It was an MMO when it was released, but Blizzard bankrupted Flagship studios and then used one of their shell companies based in Korea (used to run Star Craft servers), to purchase Hellgate and kill it. It's really sad how nobody really noticed this great game and let Blizzard control the video game world for so long. This version on steam is far from perfect, sometimes I cant see my bullets and weird stuff like that. If you have an older computer with a disk drive, get the 2007 disk version by Flagship studios, best game in the world.

Do you love janky animations?
Do you enjoy sorting your inventory, and returning to sell stuff halfway through a five minute level?
Do you despise frame rates higher than single digits?
Does it tickle your fancy to combine mmo storytelling at its averageist mixed with playstation 2 graphics?
Do you really want colors other than red, gray, and brown in your game?
Do you want randomly generated levels that almost always turn out to be a corridor?

It sounds awful, but for some reason I don't understand, I still like this thing. Don't buy it, it's wonderful.

Recommending this is... hard.

On one hand, this is literally one of the of the only ways to experience Hellgate Global content, something not even London 2038 has. For someone who's finished Hellgate London literally hundreds of times, being able to enjoy that content is amazing.

But on the OTHER hand... the game has a lot of bugs that are STILL HERE FROM THE OLD HELLGATE LONDON, as well as an array of new ones. The dialog is clearly Korean filtered through Google Translate, as even original dialog from OG Hellgate has been effected.

And that's not even getting into the 1 FPS bug...

But... it's still got content you can't get otherwise. If you want the best Hellgate London experience, you're better off using the reborn mod, Nagahaku mod, Lost London, or if you're willing to deal with their questionable balance choices London 2038.

I played this years ago when it first came out so I may be a bit biased. Great game (for its time) but with all games, there could always be improvements. Hacking into it is just as difficult as I remember (nearly impossible) partially due to the proprietary engine used to create the game that no one seems to know (the same used to create the failure Mythos). In short, if a sequel were ever created, I'd buy it; especially in VR.

I've played the original back in 2007 nonstop, it was challenging, decently diverse, and the item management was fun.
There's so much bloat in this version with achievements, awards, special quests that essentially have you roleplay a different character, and all with the difficulty chopped down to an 8th of its original difficulty, The game pretty much plays itself. Do yourself a favor and purchase a physical copy from a third party source so you can play that version instead.

Had fond memories of the original Hellgate.

Found myself frustrated by the new version - you are almost invincible (did not have cause to use a health injector in 5 hours of gameplay!) and I seemed to be going around in circles from Holborn Station with repeated identical quests and not being able to progress to Covent Garden Station.

Got a reload of the original game (with the 1.2 patch and found it much more to my tastes. You need the health injectors and the game progresses with ease and, the dialogue seems much better. The graphics might be slightly less and I get occasional stutters when moving but it seems a far superior experience.

I played this game when it first came back at launch. I’ve loved the gameplay and atmosphere, especially the customization for gear.
As it was made by one of the creators of Diablo, you’ll see the nods and some elements. If you want a way to grind it out and kill some time, give it a shot!

I played this game when it first came out and play a lot of hours on it. The game had so much potential which I thought might have been addressed by the Steam version but it hasn't aged well. I hoped for so much more which could still come to be if it had Steam Workshop. A mod or two could make this game great.

Buggy, weak interface, lacking lots of very basic QoL features.

Its a hyped game when it comes up more than a decade ago. It died naturally since EA did not care to make it worth the price. It is surprising the new version here is still so underwhelming, 14 years later. It might met some nostaigia, the reason I pay for a copy, but not worth the time in terms of game play.

This is awesome. I played this when it first came out, and honestly, its like time never passed. I got right back into it, remembering which mods were best to equip. The speed of movement is still crisp and clean. I really cant describe how I enjoy this old thing, But I can describe why it has mixed reviews.

This is a game that came out in 2007. It was made by a small company. yeah, the textures on some walls are horrific or just grey. Yes, you wont see the bullets firing from the gun. yes theres some archaic things about it... this game was made in 2007. the crew of 2038 did an amazing job of keeping the game perfectly in tact while giving the right QOL improvements to the necessary points in the game. Besides that, its a perfect feel of nostalgia.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME if you are looking for cutting edge. This is a futuristic, 3rd/fpv version of diablo if hell fully took over from the viewpoint of 2007.

Do buy the game if you wish to enjoy some oldschool love and oddness.

Would absolutely not recommend purchasing this buggy piece of crap even at the $10 sale price (it's almost 2 decades old, even $5 at this point is OP). Unless you enjoy trying to game at 1FP3S(really!) for frequent and extended portions (despite messing with every setting suggested in online forums) because of amateur coding, have NPCs fuck up mob bounties just because they are in the vicinity, have bounty mobs not appear after an hour of slogging through other areas just to get to the one with the mob, want a game minus actual original content, and an overly-complicated mod system that cannot even calculate stats properly (I am looking at one right now that is significantly lower than my stats and remains incapable of being equipped, AFTER having been equipped and later disabling almost all my armor for no logical reason), etc. The fact alone that I am still having issues running this PoS game on an exponentially faster high end system than on the lowest settings when it can run any other game at highest is proof the programming here is garbage. The only reason I can see there might have been hype for this game was the MMO community portion, that is missing in its entirety on Steam. Nope.

VIsuals are downgraded, mod support is not there, multiplayer not working also some sensless changes have been made to the game quests, and character models. I would be happy if they would just allow to play the game as it was but I guess that's too much to ask.

Sadly it seems that the only way how to get the original game is to order a physical copy. I'd stay away from this.

The game is buggy. I get to a point where I have completed all the quest for that area but I cannot move forward. I restart the game with a new character and then I cannot kill a hell boss as when they get to 2% of life then their life meter resets to full. I killed one boss who was teleporting in and out and they died mid teleport. I got the loot but it would not show they had been killed. This game if full of bugs and is unplayable.

I want to say yes to recommending this game to other players but my god holy cow the lag on this game had this happen way to many times not only on the Conjurer but the engineer as well please fix the lagging issue.
-Edit it lags when ever there are a lot of explosions or if I summon too many summons as a conjurer, as an engineer its those devices that slow down the enemy basically if the summons are doing too much and something explodes the game lags really bad.

“I live... AGAIN!”
~Caleb (BLOOD)



* sigh * OK, now this is gonna be lo-o-o-ong review... See, this game? It comes with one heck of a history. You know, some games are just... unlucky. Sometimes, some crimes... wait, sorry. That was just something from my Disney Afternoon youth. Anyway, sometimes a certain title just... I dunno. You know how sometimes you wake up in the morning just to find out that the entire world is against you so you decide that the best thing to do is to stay in bed? Well, let's just say that the story of Hellgate started with something like that. Technically? It was supposed to be good. Years later, Bill Roper (yes, the same Bill Roper who worked on the original Diablo's story and design) still claims that he proud of what he and Flagship Studios achieved in this game. And you know what? There's a good reason for that. Sure, Hellgate: London didn't age that well. Nowadays? You can get the same exact experience (even better, actually) in pretty much any cheap MMO. But back in 2007? It was pretty daring. It was a fully 3D third person Diablo-like ARPG. With guns. In a pretty interesting setting where three Warhammer-like factions fought Diablo-like evil forces. In the future. In a bloody London metro. With Diablo II-like advanced multiplayer. In other words, it... was... supposed... to... be... epic. And in a way? It was. But only on paper. In reality, it turned out to be pretty clunky, unpolished, repetitive and not nearly as addicting as good ol' Diablo. I mean, sure, it wasn't nearly as bad as Etrom: The Astral Essence (the game that tried to use pretty similar concept about a year before Hellgate), but all in all, it was unable to compete even with the most basic competitors like Silverfall in a single player, while when it was about multiplayer, quite a lot of people were still playing games like Diablo II, SACRED and Dungeon Siege. Just because neither of those games asked extra money for online, while Hellgate? It tried to play it smart and asked $9.95 per month for subscription. Well, technically you were able to play online for free, but you were unable to access stuff like content updates, guild creation, PvP arenas, shared storage, etc. In other words, it was some sort of hybrid between single player game and the MMO. And it... kinda sucked at both. Long story short, Hellgate flopped and serves were shut down in early 2009 (imagine how bad it felt for those who paid $149.99 for lifetime subscription).

But you know what? That's not where our story ends. Unfortunately... Because that's exactly where Korean publisher HanbitSoft came in. The guys kinda liked the fact that Hellgate was pretty much perfect for f2p model (which, as we all know, is extremely popular on Asian market), so, naturally, they bought it and... well... re-released it as an Asian f2p title. The Korean version came with both content updates from Flagship (The Stonehenge Chronicles and the Abyss Chronicles), but also added a new one called The Second Invasion. Eventually, they even tried to bring the game back to global market as Hellgate Global, bu-u-u-ut... let's just say it didn't live long. Just because many years since the initial release, nobody really wanted the game that wasn't that good to begin with. Even the second Korean expansion called Hellgate: Tokyo (that even included the new difficulty level) was unable to save the game. In other words, in 2016, exactly nine years since the initial flop, Hellgate flopped again. But no, that's not where our story ends either. Ladies and gentlemen, please, welcome – Hellgate. That lives... again... kind of...

* sigh * Yeah... And that's where sh*t hits the fan for real. Let's start with the good stuff, though. First thing first – this version comes with pretty much all the stuff we had in Hellgate Global. You played the original Hellgate: London back in the days? You'll be surprised just how much new content there is in this version. Like a bloody Energizer Bunny from Hell, this game keeps going and going and going until your eyes begin to bleed. And then it keeps going even further. Stonehenge is here, Abyss is here, Second Invasion is here, even Tokyo with its extra difficulty. It's all here. And let's just admit it, it's pretty cool. I mean, seriously. For only $12.99 you can get the entire thing without all that Korean f2p bull. You pay once? You get it all (and you get it now!~ ♫). Sounds cool, huh? Well... let's just say that's where good things end and suffering begin.

First – this version doesn't have multiplayer support. That's right. Even though the Hellgate was born as heavily multiplayer-oriented title and rebooted as f2p online thingy? Now there's no multiplayer at all. Because reasons. You want multiplayer? Screw you, go play something else. No way to re-enable multiplayer here. Even with third-party tools (we'll return to those a bit later). Sounds bad already, but... it only gets worse. See, even though multiplayer isn't there anymore, nobody cared to properly re-balance this game. Even my strongest tank died during Tokyo parts in bloody seconds. On lowest difficulty! Just because those parts? Those were not designed for single player. And even though more Hellgate may sound good for old fans... let's just say those Korean expansions feel pretty terrible. Not only they're terribly balanced at this point, they were pretty poorly made to begin with.

But wait, wait, the “best” thing is coming. See, quite a lot of the original stuff was removed in Hellgate Global. And... they didn't bring it back for this release. Long story short, we only have DirectX 9 version of the game now and... it looks like crap. It only has low quality textures, low quality cinematics and visual effects were heavily reduced. Thankfully, you can bring all that back by downloading a few more gigabytes of data (just check the community hub here, in Steam, God bless those who cared enough to provide help) or just taking it from your old DVD version of the game, but seriously, what the heck? A modern re-release looking way worse than 2007 version? Screw you, HanbitSoft. Just... screw you. Also, yes, Energizer Diablo strikes back and even that isn't the end of our story. Because, even though visuals here were seriously reduced, this version... comes with a terrible 1 FPS bug. Most likely, you won't notice it during the original Hellgate campaign, but in the second half of the game? Surprise, MOFOs! Even on lowest resolution with everything turned off, this game will still give you 1 FPS hell. And yes, there is a way to fix it through the third-party software, but honestly, what... the... f*ck... is... wrong... with... this... version?!

And the funniest this is? There's a fan-made version of Hellgate available online. It's called Hellgate 2038 and... it has everything. All the expansions (including Tokyo), high quality visuals and no 1FPS bug. Heck, even the multiplayer is still there! How cool is that?! Like I said, Hellgate didn't really age that good. Personally? I'd say, it's one of those old games that aren't really worth re-visiting nowadays. But if you really do want to check it out? Google Hellgate 2038. This? This version is just broken. And even though with enough patience and third-party stuff you can make it somewhat playable, with absolutely broken balance and no multiplayer? It's still a joke. Dixi.

While you can have fun in this version, this is NOT the version shipped in North America, it can provide nostalgia and fun, but if you remember the original version well enough, back away from this sloppy shamble of a memory, you will be disappointed.
Be that as it may if you can look past that, then buy it on a sale, enjoy it if you can, buyer do beware.

Only reason to purchase this is to show interest in the hellgate brand, and hopefully get the ACTUAL game, and not a port of a port of a port, with vastly ruined graphics. Unfortunately, this is an objecticve downgrade from the actual hellgate london - if you can find an old copy, even v1.0 from the box runs better, plays better, and is better. In summary - Buy it, so i can get an actually good hellgate london.

Yes but only if you just wanna mow thru the areas again for fun, No for most because the graphics are not as good (Don't know why DX 10 Graphics removed) as the original, its as buggy as hell especially the 1 FPS Lag Bug. The story for this game is pretty good, would probably make a good relaunch using Unreal 5 Engine and improved Game play but not likely to happen which is a shame.

I'm actually quite surprised that the game's rating here is so low. Although the gameplay is rather awkward at times, I think Hellgate is a pretty cool 1st person/3rd person alternative to classic Diablo-like slashers. Played it a lot a long time ago, decided to revisit here only recently and I am not disappointed one bit.

While the original Hellgate : London from 2007, looks and feels great to this day with enhanced textures and DX10 support and effects.

This 2018 foul abomination Hellgate : London aka Tokyo 2018 sucks balls. It's graphics are blurry and DX9 makes it look really old, that's not at all how the original looked like. The original game looks a ton better, while this one is an insult to the community and an affront to the legacy of the original game.

If you want to play Hellgate look for the original.

Played for nostalgia sake, a game I remembered fondly but had not finished back in the days. Graphics are poor even on max quality, it is to be expected. But it is glitchy and, especially, very laggier the longer you play, even on my gaming computer. By chapter 4 I had to restart the game every hour because the lag would make it unplayable. (Good thing I had a summoner, the minions saved me during the lags).

Don't buy the game, it's broken with no fixes. Developers have no intention of fixing the game, which shouldn't be allowed on Steam.

The game it self is great with a open world approach and an engaging storyline in the main quest. But the game has an infuriating bug causing the game to drop to less then 1 frame per second in grahipcs update when fighting now and again. It seem to be caused by placement of bodies after you killed enemies and the update part of the engine gets caught in a loop somewhere in the code and will not stop until the graphic element causing it is removed by the game in the cleaning up phase when temporary graphics eements are removed due to age (such as bodies, pices of destroyed things and such). This hampers the gameplay severly and it would seem no update is forthcoming from Steam or the developer. It can sometimes be fixed by ending the game and rebooting the computer, but not always. Sometimes it is a map that gets the problem no matter what. So in conclusion - if you are OK with starting over quest because of the bug then this game can be a great addition to your library - if not - avoid it as the plague.

I enjoyed the first few hours, till the bug, which the developer says there is NO FIX, reared it's ugly head. After a few minutes play, the frame rate on this butt kicking rig drops to 1 (one) FPS from the 120 it had been running before and on nearly every other game I have. NO FIX, no play. I uninstalled it. Save your money.

I concider myself one of the Lucky ones that didnt experience the infamous 1fps Drop Bug.

The Game is still an ok Hackn Slay,but you clearly see its Age on Npcs that stand like Puppets around and have Quests over their Heads.
Its something like the first Hybrid between Fps and Hackn Slay if you play a Ranged Class and came out in a Time before Borderlands where this was completely new.So shooting Guns in this Game somehow doesnt feel right but also isnt Bad.
I dont recommend it cause i think most of the Players will probably not like it.

The Game has definite Flaws,and its current Publisher even didnt care about deleting Stuff from its MMO Phase.
So Stuff like an Ingame Chat and a Email Sign is still in it.

I somehow like it,dont know why.
Probably because i like the Idea of MMOS but arent into playing with other People.

To me Killing Demons never gets Old,and i love the Athmosphere of it.
But i recommend to People probably more Games like Grim Dawn and Stuff,or if you need Fps Borderlands for sure.

Requires third parry modifications just to make it playable due to the fps bug. Despite originally having an english release, the in-game text is a badly re-translated mess from the asian FTP-mmo version. A lot of little 'features' that clearly are from that free to play version still litter the game, too, like buying items that to adjust augments or boosters for exp.

Stuck with it for a while due to nostalgia, the game really was amazing once upon a time... but selling this incomplete and broken mess is a disservice to game it used to be. I regret not refunding it while I could have.

Hellgate London , the dungeon crawling Action RPG from Flagship studio that also involved some peoples who worked on the first Diablo game.

It was Hyped , It's launched in a extremely akward way , Flagship died and the game was brought by another studio , delivered as a free to play then died again ... and finally it's been brought back from the mud it's layed it's face in and resold as a worst version on steam.

Even without the glitches and censorships of the steam version hellgate london just doesn't hold up as one great memorable game , Melee combat feel like mashing potatoes and guns feel like firing big toys meant for kids which is a shame because the overall atmosphere of the destroyed and crumbling london is awesome.

I've personally installed HD textures and use Reshade to give the visuals some uplift from the degraded one of the steam version and I'd say the game is still decent in that regard.

enemies design are varied and truly show some impressive creativity and even the Dungeon generator do a fit job at always making you feel like you've been there before but there always something different whenever you restart the game.

final note

I'd say this game Deserve a new Official Remake in a better more modern engine , it's totally deserve modern gameplay that take the best of Diablo dungeon looting but with a fresh paint for action , gores and Adrenaline ... and that Remake would totally Deserve to be great enough that even Boderland would feel like childplay in comparission.

If you have FPS ISSUES:

Close Steam >>> Move to your Install folder >>> Open the BIN folder >>> Start via Hellgate_sp_x86 (Play with Steam CLOSED). (Helped me a bit)

Game runs on 1 Core, how much you have doesn´t matter, running Steam/ other stuff at the same time seem to makes it worse.

Hope you can finally enjoy your playthrough.

Enough with milking this IP without any intention of doing anything new with it.
This is literally a downgrade from the original release.

1. No multiplayer... the original game was basically intended to be played primarily online.
2. DirectX 9 Graphics... the original game looked incredible in DirectX 10. This version sucks.
3. Buggier for most people than the original.

It does have some newer content that OG gamers maybe didn't get the chance to play, but I just couldn't bring myself to keep going without the online feature and the DirectX 10 graphics. Too bad.

At least announce Hellgate 2 or something if you don't plan on fixing this game.

To be fair, I had enjoyed my time with Hellgate: London. I wasn't there for the original 2007 run of this game, because I had lots of underpowered computers that only were good at running solitaire, if barely. Years later, I pick this game up from one of Steam's sales after watching a streamer play it and I initially enjoyed within the time allotted.

Hellgate: London sortof felt like a single-player MMO, if there was one. This game used to have been online at the time, so now it's been watered down to an ARPG for SP. It was originally developed by some former Blizzard staff that oversaw the Diablo series, so it's kinda a no-brainer that it'd attract me playing it because I do love me some Diablo games from time to time.

This game does play similarly to what you'd expect from it's time, given what it's worth. Meaning that it's a bit clunky and unpolished, visuals that are in between generations of gaming and gameplay that has a limited run of the mill for your time.

Though it pains me to realize after combing through reviews and doing some minor research, that this version of the game on Steam isn't the real deal. What basically happened is that a third party developer came in at some point, decided they were going to make this game free to play, re-work the graphics, gut out some features and then eventually re-release it. Which would give us this result.

It was quite a revelation to me and it bums me out a little to know that what I was playing, was more or less a shell of it's former self. Former players of this game can point that out to you, if you find them. Even though I've given this game a fair shake of my time and was indulged on the gameplay and some intriguing mechanics, knowing now that I was playing a wannabe cash grab, it was a huge downer.

This is a release of a game that was broken years ago as a free-to-play and remains broken now as a $12 re-release to line the pockets of those willing to prey on potential customers' nostalgia.

If you played this game on CD before it was mutilated and reborn into a free to play game, I implore you to not purchase this. Until Hanbit fixes the mess they've ignored for years and years, they do not deserve, in any shape or form, your or anyone's money. They've taken a game many people enjoyed even with it's shortcomings from the unfortunately fated Flagship Studios and simply wrecked the experience with all the trappings of South Korean F2P MMOs, crudely cutting out a single player experience with the finesse of a drunken surgeon with a rusty spoon.
Please just wait for word of a legitimate update or find a retail copy of the CD.

I have a DVD of the original 2007 Hellgate: London, and so the big question for me was whether this version adds enough to merit the price tag. Since I have both, I have played them back to back.

The answer for me was yes. There's quite a bit different, and I think that is worth the $10 Cdn I paid on sale.

There is a huge issue with frame rate periodically dropping to 1 FPS for brief periods. It looks like one of the threads is pinning the CPU and slowing the entire game down, and it seems to involve line of sight calculations. Fortunately, the Hellgate Revival forum has an app that uses a memory hook to fix the issue, though it makes me wonder why a third party was able to identify and fix the issue but the developer couldn't. I also strongly recommend using a mod from that forum to increase inventory size as the 2018 version has the same ridiculously restrictive small inventory the original had.

There's new content, which is always nice. New areas, new monsters, new bosses. More variety is a good thing.

There's quite a bit of skill updates and rebalancing. Summoners in particular are a lot more viable and have completely new play styles available to them. Some of the weapons seem to have been tweaked as well; the wasp hive notably has a much shorter delay before firing. Respecs are available in store at quite reasonable prices, and the stat respec also respecs drone stats, so setting up a drone for melee and deciding to switch to guns is doable without having to start a whole new engineer.

Some of the more irritating quirks are remedied. The game only runs in DX9 now, but weather effects now work in DX9, so you no longer have to switch to DX10 to see weather and back to DX9 so the flashlight works. I suspect there's a graphical downgrade stemming from going down to DX9, but this game is old enough that graphics really aren't a priority anyway. Character models have been modified to have a more Asian MMO look, but that's such a minor thing that I wouldn't have noticed had other people not complained about it.

There are some irritating MMO features that were fiddled with when they should have been removed. Some weapons have accessory slots that aren't initially available, and require you to buy an item from the store to unlock. That's a completely useless feature I'd be happier without. Removing accessories has a hefty chance of destroying them unless you buy an expensive consumable item to guarantee their survival, and that's a change I really detest. Accessories are already going to level out of being usable, so adding a new mechanic to destroy them seems unnecessary and incredibly irritating.

There's a full time 30% experience buff which can't be removed or disabled. It feels like I'm leveling up faster than the difficulty curve of content is going up. Difficulty can be selected from a dropdown while in any of the hubs to mitigate that, but it's odd that they'd put in a visible buff rather than just changing the XP tables internally.

All in all, I think the updates and new content make the 2018 version worth buying, but like the original you need to use mods to make playing it less tedious.

Although the game is, by now, old as dirt... I find it to be a wonderful distraction. It hasn't aged well, it doesn't show you anything new or even anything that cuts its own niche. It just... is. It's like playing a Diablo clone, but with guns and over the shoulder gameplay. It doesn't need anything fancy, it just exists as a distraction from day to day life. Though it has been rehashed several different times after being dropped by the original developer, though it's been revived and let go time after time, it still gives me a pleasant feeling of nostalgia.

When Hellgate Global's beta first launched, I was right there on the first day trying my damnedest to stay logged in for more than two seconds simply because I'd played a bit of HG London since a family member had it. Global was alright until the content after the initial campaign, simply because of how bullet-spongy the bosses were, with the first one taking 8 minutes of sustained fire from a Marksman using every airstrike, grenade, and constantly shooting it with what was apparently fairly good equipment for my level.

If you're looking for London, this isn't it, not by a long shot; if you're like me and you just want to play Global again after the servers were taken down, it runs a bit better than the online version did and the loading screens are some of the fastest I've seen in a while. :D

Last post I found from the Korean company who posted this game was in Dec 2018.
Listen, I LOVE Hellgate London. Bought and played it on launch. I was delighted to see it on Steam.
Now I find it is buggy as hell, has missing endgame content (most of the endgame content, that is), no multiplayer and hobbled graphics.
Avoid this game until they finally invest time in it to make worth your money.
People are calling this a cash grab and I am inclined to agree with them.

I'm not going to tell you that Hellgate London was a brilliant game. It was ambitious and flawed, but the intro cinematics were snazzy and the game was mediocre at worst.

This is not Hellgate London. I don't know what this game is like and frankly I don't care to find out, because I bought this wanting to play Hellgate London. The moment I was sure this game wasn't Hellgate London, I refunded it with no regret.

I'm absolutely willing to buy a copy of Hellgate London, if *that* game ever gets a release on Steam or GOG.

WARNING TO POTENTIAL BUYERS:
THIS IS NOT HELLGATE LONDON!

It should be against steams rules to sell a game under false pretenses, but that is what this is.
This is not HELLGATE London. This is instead a gutted version of an MMO made for Asian markets known as Hellgate Global.

Hellgate global sacrifice the story and immersion of Hellgate London to create a multiplayer experience more akin to something like a mobile game. This version is that, except they removed the multiplayer...

I was stunned and shocked when I started up the game. Billions of unnecessary tooltips, screen clutter, cheap UI, horrible mistranslations and MMO like features that didn't even work. Worst of all, there's this persistent weird lag to the game that makes it feel as if you're playing online even though you're not.

If you have fond memories of playing Hellgate London in the past: skip this.

This is not the game you remember and frankly, it should not be on steam advertising itself as the game we know and love.

Until GOG or someone gets the rights to the *real* original game, it looks like the best bet is still to just buy the original CD-ROM online.

Before you even think of buying this game, look up information about it's terrible stuttering issues. You have to fix those before this game is playable or else you will suffer considerable lag in often key situations.
Despite this, blinded by nostalgia, I love this dumpster fire of code that pretends it's a game. Being able to play an often Top-Down game in first person is satisfying as it lets you bob and weave through attacks and actually fight your foes giving you freedom and coordination in a Diablo-Style lootpergee.
The mix of classes is enjoyable, the Templar being fun front-line warriors that love their sleek futuristic knight armor, the ex-military getting revenge with high firepower and robotics, and the Cabal taming the demon's own magic to launch it back with spells or summoned demons.

I like the game. The horribly coded mess.

Although the 1 FPS bug and low graphics detail are bothersome; overall, I have always loved this game and am glad to see that they incorporated material from the online edition into the single-player game

At first, I was really....REALLY excited that this was brought back to us on Steam. I looked forward to running the streets and destroying Demons I hadn't seen for 12 years. Now I like this game, don't get me wrong, but thats about where my praise is going to end. This needs multiplayer. The game was designed for it and was the whole fun of it back in the day. It feels like a shell of its former self.

Honestly, if you're ok with it its worth a buy for the story if you can get it cheap, but it just doesn't seem right without the bustling hub.

Im happy to get to play this game again. I never got to finish it because i kept having issues with my computer and always had to reset it. Was soo happy when i saw them having it on steam. I lost my CD key so i couldnt reinstall my orginal copy. Only upsetting thing is no multi-player.. i am praying that it will be an update one day.

It is sadly poorly optimized, so it will lag even on an over the top computer.
The game itself is actually pretty fun and engaging, but unplayable in certain areas.

What can I say about Hellgate London that hasn't already been said, It's an alright MMO/FPS but the company that currently has the rights to the game chose to use an inferior version of the game and not patch the notorious 1 Fps bug that ruins what little Immersion that can be had. This game is alot of fun and if the owners get there ass in gear and fix the mistakes it will be an award worthy game 7.9/10

This is a watered down version of the game.. with bugs intact.. and Hanbitsoft does nothing to fix them.
It is playable ... if you can find your way around the bugs.. some people have made their own fixes, and some have ideas how to help with certain ones.. like the alt button not working.. i used cntr+alt+del to go-to task manager, and then tab back to the game, and it resolved... dont know why.. but it worked for me.
Purchase at your own risk!

There is a bug with corpses that causes the game to drop to 1fps. The game is broken and still hasn't been fixed.

It's a fun game. Lots of loot, interesting classes. The Steam version has some improvements from the original game as well. Mostly quality of life, but some mechanical things like health regen. It also has more graphics options; probably aimed at getting the most out of newer PCs.
It's a shame the framerate issues makes all of this a moot point. Can't reccomend since I've found no way to fix it, rendering the game unplayable.

A testament to the massive missed opportunity and the hubris of developers

Long time Hellgate player, the .aus version is on my computer. I was curious about the additional content, so I downloaded the Steam version. After experiencing the FPS error, I quickly researched and found the solution and continued playing. I like what I see so far, the are even more crafting options available. OK, it doesn''t look EXACTLY like the original, but I think it has promise.
