Ghostrunner mission list3/19/2023 ![]() Movement is very, very smooth, and the parkour mechanics work incredibly well, allowing the Ghostrunner to run on walls, perform some tricky jumps, dash in the air and use a grappling hook to reach otherwise unreachable areas. Ghostrunner feels extremely enjoyable to play. The game's tempo and the pacing are extremely fast, so much that it feels like playing one of those arcade games that gave players no breathing room, and no respite: move, or you will die. Ghostrunner is a high-speed first-person action game where players are always supposed to be on the move, whether on the ground or in the air. ![]() It's a very interesting choice and one that works incredibly well in the context of the game, as Ghostrunner is indeed all about never slowing down and never stopping, not even in the face of death. ![]() The plot unravels as players move through missions via radio dialogues so that the game's pacing never slows down. Storytelling is definitely not the main focus of Ghostrunner, but the game still succeeds in presenting a compelling, albeit not particularly inspired, cyberpunk story. Guided by the Architect, the Ghostrunner will remember who he is and all he's capable of, setting out to take down the Keymaster for good and bring back some hope in this world on the brink of complete annihilation. Among them is the Ghostrunner, a swift and powerful warrior armed with a molecular katana who has no recollection of the past. The uprising failed, though, and those who participated in it have been either killed or imprisoned. Not all inhabitants of Dharma Tower have resigned to this fate, however, and have tried to take down the Keymaster and restore freedom to humanity's last safe shelter. This last Eden changes radically, however, with the rise to power of Mara the Keymaster, once a brilliant scientist, and now a tyrannical ruler who holds the entirety of the human population in an iron grip. An unspecified cataclysm has wrought destruction upon it, and the few survivors manage to continue living only thanks to Dharma Tower, the last safe heaven where technology has prospered, and all fear has been left behind. The world of Ghostrunner is no longer the one we live in. This is, pretty much, Ghostrunner in a nutshell. Death will dog each and every step we take, but it won't necessarily be a bad thing, if we have the determination to persevere, regardless of the situation. If we were to judge our reality based on video game logic, we really shouldn't look forward to the future, as it will be a grim future where the world will be rendered uninhabitable, humans will become less and less human, and tyrants will rule with an iron grip with the help of advanced technology.
