Though the overused backdrop of World War II has probably surpassed
it recently, science fiction and first-person shooting still go hand in
hand. The near-future settings of many action games let developers both
insert all manner of laser guns into them and spin tales of futures gone
awry. Digital Extremes' Pariah is just such a game, giving users access
to a small arsenal of impossible weaponry, while having the story take
place in a war-torn world of the future. While the backdrop may still
have some life left in it, Pariah's combat, story, and weapons loadout
are all positively lifeless, making the game feel like nothing more than
an also-ran shooter that barely stands on its own, let alone stands up
to the genre's best.
The story in Pariah is convoluted and does a terrible job of keeping you
in the loop. You play as a doctor named Jack Mason, and the game opens
with Mason on a transport ship, escorting a mysterious woman who's been
frozen in stasis. You're flying over the Northwest, which is enemy
territory that's under control of prisoners, when missiles blast into
the side of your ship, sending you crashing to the ground below. The
woman escapes, and now it's up to you to find her. And apparently, she's
toting some sort of virus around in her system that, as luck would have
it, ends up getting transferred to you within the first couple of
minutes of the game. While it starts out with a reasonable and
potentially interesting premise, Pariah barely explains itself, so
you're never too certain about who's who, who your enemies are, and
what, exactly, you're doing.
