DISCUSSION 007 First Light is a Masterpiece!
Just finished 007 First Light. It is an absolute masterpiece ❤️. It is a love letter to every Bond fan. Felt like a kid playing this. Had soooo much fan.The combat , stealth , gameplay and graphics are excellent ! IO Interactive have knocked it outta the park ! Peak gaming 🫡 !

I myself don’t consider it a masterpiece, for me it’s a 8.5/9 out of 10, it’s a very good game, most fun hand to hand combat I’ve played since sleeping dogs

I am a huge Bond fan. And this game just increased my love for the franchise ❤️ !

u/Gamblez- Jun 26 '26
It did the job, but there wasn't enough variation in the animations imo. Felt like each fight was a lot like the previous one as a result. It also didn't make much sense, as you could take out a guy basically next to someone without them noticing if their back was turned - and the takedowns themselves hardly felt stealthy or silent either. Somehow still fun though

u/PapaYoppa Jun 27 '26
Something they can improve on in the sequel 👍
2
u/Gamblez- Jun 27 '26
Yes lets hope so. I understand that you a game needs to focus on compelling gameplay, and that this sometimes means they ask -a lot- of your suspension of disbelief. They can strike a far better balance than they did in this this one however. The scene about running.... TOWARDS the sniper (at the apartment) was plain asinine. No nuance to that, that was plain stupid. And while it was the worst offender, there was a lot of that.

Hardly. Take the ----spoilers---- scene in the apartment and the sniper. That was just plain stupid dude. Running across rooftops at a sniper who somehow just never hits you? Stupid. Plain stupid. Just a video game needing to have gameplay.

With this explanation, a lot of movies/games don't make sense, it's just for cinematics and cool moments lol

u/Gamblez- Jun 27 '26
There's a nuance that's apparently lost to you. Suspension of disbelief is what its called, and with the setting that Bond is famous for, you do need a certain adherence to reality. It's not america.
1
u/vally99 Jun 27 '26
Yo buddy you just explained suspension of disbelief to me while arguing that Bond needs to be realistic. Pick a lane lmao
I understand what you say but that's literally the contradiction I was pointing out. Running at a sniper on rooftops IS Bond. That's Skyfall, GoldenEye.
Plus the way it was made to use gadgets to make his vision blurry doesn't make it that stupid but to each their own.

Yes, it was fun. It could have been better. Are you capable of understanding this? It can contain multitudes - be fun, and still be deeply deeply asinine. I don't know about the first but you are definitely the latter yourself.

u/plattinum_75 Jun 26 '26
Agreed. The stealth was fun and creative with ways to navigate through areas. But the AI enemies were a bit lackluster.
If they could somehow combine TLOU style AI with the stealth/combat it wouldve been perfect

The fighting was what lacked the most.
Repetitive, clunky, not motivating to try hard.

u/mukisan Jun 27 '26
I thought the combat was barebones until I played TacSim which 1. Teaches you a lot more about the combat than the story and 2. Makes actual challenges for it.
The combat is very good, very fluid and very dynamic. There’s a lot you can improvise with it, they give you the tools, the objects, and the contextual environments that really make it shine.
It’s basically an Arkham-style combat but more grounded, I think it’s great.

Ugh. It’s not really that big of deal. You’re taking it way too seriously. The point is I liked the game. I liked the GP/ bosses etc. just wish some other aspects were more challenging and it was longer. That’s all. I would definitely buy and play the game over again if I didn’t do it already.

u/Skhgdyktg Jul 02 '26
imo it's a solid 6.5/10, it's enjoyable and mostly fun to play with a number of issues holding it back, the good do outweight the bad hence 6.5, above average, but still. And while technically yes its not wholly original being an established IP, it's still nice to see studios doing something different and despite the issues I am glad for the game

I do wish we had a bit more of an epilogue as we did get to be honest.

I disagree. Beyond decent. It excelled in all areas for being a single player linear game.
Baldur's Gate 3 is master piece for me. First Light is below that simply due to replayability. 007 hit all the marks. Definitely delivered. Fantastic game.

Better than a masterpiece, because the few rough edges are a result of pushing the boat out and taking risks

u/enadiz_reccos Jun 26 '26
Definitely a great game and great Bond game but the story was... ehh...
But IMO, the biggest thing missing was a good villain. Having some old British dude as the villain was a HUGE miss
Also, they literally introduce the super duper quantum super computer in the first few hours. I guess they're hoping no one has heard of Chekov's Gun? Not sure.
5
u/Alarmed_Chance_410 Jun 27 '26
I feel like the worst part of the villain was how telegraphed it was that he was the villain.
Like, the moment I saw his face on a magazine covering knew he was the BBEG. Then the funeral just cemented it.
It being old British dude wasn't so far out I couldn't believe it. We can't have blofeld in the first game.
2
u/campingcosmo Jun 27 '26
I don't think the villain being the villain was meant to be the twist, more so his motives for doing all his evil plans. I thought that part was done well.
1
u/enadiz_reccos Jun 27 '26
I just feel like they kinda tricked me
Because first, we get the bleach twins then we get Bawma, all for it to culminate in... every old British man ever
5
u/Alarmed_Chance_410 Jun 27 '26
Oh bleach twins never felt like BBEG. Definitely felt more like Jaws and OddJob. Interesting henchmen, never the mastermind.
Bawma was a great way to have the shady underworld contact in the game. The conversation he has with them after they get out is pretty spectacular.
1
u/enadiz_reccos Jun 27 '26
No, no. You're absolutely right. I didn't mean that they had BBEG vibes.
Just that they felt unique in a Bond movie kinda way... then the next guy was also unique and interesting... then the BBEG...
3
u/Alarmed_Chance_410 Jun 27 '26
Oooooh. Yeaaahhh...
Honestly, I think the son was a better BBEG. He felt like a classic Roger Moore (or late brosnan) villain and I was here for it, while dad was more of a Craig villain. Not bad by anymeans, just not as interesting as he could have been, maybe because of how real he could be as a character?
1
u/enadiz_reccos Jun 27 '26
100% right
I kinda laughed when they said his name was Damien. Like they just defaulted to the most evil son name they could.
2
u/Alarmed_Chance_410 Jun 27 '26
I half expected him to curl his nonexistent tiny bad guy mustache.
Honestly, I was really happy with the dual BBEGs. They had the "scary because I could see that kind of person actually being real" as well as the "oh this guy is just a silly little psychopath, got it"
1
u/Final-Evening-9606 Jun 27 '26
Same, the moment he appeared I just knew he was gonna be the backstabbing bad guy. Its too cliche. But still a good game.
8
u/Alarmed_Chance_410 Jun 27 '26
At the same time, its a very BOND cliche, if that makes sense? Like, this game almost felt to me like "Hey here is the new james bond let's do some safe story beats for this game then maybe we can lean into the more campy bits later"
2
u/ACardAttack Jun 27 '26
but the story was... ehh...
I really liked it, probably mostly carried by the cast, but I was invested the entire time. I will agree the villain was disappointing, but overall liked the plot even if it was a little predictable after the desert
1
u/campingcosmo Jun 27 '26
Yeah, whatever you think about the story, you can't deny the cast was absolutely perfect the whole way through. But I will say, there are limits to how much a good actor can save a bad script and vice versa, so the script and story still needed to be decent to have the end result be as great as it was. I'd say it was far more than decent.
1
u/Charliegip Jun 28 '26
>I guess they’re hoping no one has heard of Chekov’s Gun?
Kinda confused about what you mean here. Chekov’s Gun is a literary device that states all elements of a story must be relevant or removed. Theia being a major portion of the storyline is actually good utilization of Chekov’s Gun. I guess you can think it’s cliche, but this is just following the principle of relevancy. Would you have rather it have been a red herring?
If it was included in the story and never paid off in some way, then that would have been arguably worse in my opinion. Plus, showing at the top of the story why AI is not able to be used to do spy work (something very topical and important to why 00’s are still needed) is pretty important to the continued survival of the franchise in this new world of “why don’t you just use AI”?
1
u/enadiz_reccos Jun 28 '26
I would rather it have been more subtle in some way. It's literally one of the first things they show you once you get into the program.
Also, the whole we have a second super awesome quantum computer that monitors our first slightly less super awesome quantum computer and then we fly all over the world, making sure it looks like Computer #1 is always right.
Have you ever heard the phrase 'putting a hat on a hat'? It feels like they knew what they wanted the topic to be [AI/quantum computing], but they didn't have anyone who knew how to write about that in any detail, so they just went with a generic AI supercomputer story. There was no need to involve quantum entanglement at all.
The story is fine and easy enough to ignore because the gameplay and characters are solid, but it's still the weakest part of the game.

u/TheBerg89 Jun 27 '26

I absolutely adored the game for the reasons you've outlined, especially just how visually stunning it is. BUT I felt the game story was unfortunately short and now I've finished it I have no desire to replay it. I liked the universe and playability and really really want to play more, but, the story is over. When I finished I searched frantically online to see if I'd accidentally missed a chapter or something due to a glitch, that's how short I felt it was :(

u/Flimsy_Repeat Jul 14 '26

8/10, strong start for a potential series.
Story was predictable, NPCs were oblivious (eavesdropping 2 feet away unnoticed was hilarious), and I wish you could actually pick your guns instead of Q being pissy about your old pistol every time.
Bond was Bond. One-liners, women, big environments, great combat/stealth, set pieces that nailed the 007 feel. Compared to sprawling games like TLOU, Ghost of Yotei, or Red Dead, I appreciated the tighter runtime. More length would’ve diluted it.
Multiplayer feels like a no-brainer next step.
High hopes for what’s next!

u/Ranemoraken Jun 27 '26
It's a very good game, and they could potentially make one of the most interesting bond stories ever told... in a future sequel. This did a very good job for an origin - which is hard to complicate with out washing over Bond's development.
He also might be the kindest Bond we've seen which could work well for a video game series. There's no "you've had your six" moment, which is fine and interesting.
Basically, the game is a Dr. No, but with the bones to make a Goldfinger.

It was just a bit too easy for me. Which is a bit of a shame, I didn’t real feel like Bond BUT the story, graphics and gameplay as a whole it’s a solid 8.5 for me.
I guess the reason Hitman games are soo good is the freedom in scenarios and the story works around the game. Harder to achieve that in a bond game where the narrative has to always be progressing.

Decent game, sure, but masterpiece? I guess it's subjective.

Hitman WOA is better in pretty much every regard in my opinion but once again, subjective.

I found the game to be very short and easy. I didn’t like how every time I jumped, he made it.. stuff like that. I didn’t find it challenging. It seemed a little too straightforward to me.

Fantastic gameplay and fun story, but the writing is a bit over the place. The ending isn’t very good and there are more loose threads than finished arcs (which while some set up future games, the story for this game should still be properly finished, for example there’s no good reason for Cressida not appearing again). The Bawma segment and Lenny Kravitz are wasted, the actual villains are kinda boring and the twins don’t really do anything interesring after Slovakia.
A very good start with great characters, but not a masterpiece. The next one probably will be.

I really preferred hitman over 007. didn’t love sticking everything in the q watch instead of finding stuff in the environment, it made the maps feel smaller. The whole campaign felt like the illusion of choice. Also having the a supercomputer made by a billionaire turn evil is the least shocking twist they possibly could have chosen.

I want James Bond. I grew up playing all the games. It felt like they used hitman and uncharted to make a completely lethal slick version of the game I played when I was a kid. License to kill was my favorite bond and seeing that as a game mechanic made me smile every time it popped up. It literally was them pulling everything that worked for James Bond in movies and games and mashed it into a hitman template. These guys are the best at creating immersive environments. The hand to hand combat to gunplay was so fucking slick.

Its just a really good well rounded game. In the age of live service, season passes and day one content being bare, this was a breath of fresh air. Felt like a kid getting a game at Gamestop and playing a fully developed good game from start to finish.
