I’ve been playing it for a good couple months and I’m still nowhere near tired of it, I’ll actually replay the whole game once I beat it because it’s so much fun. Love the story and voice acting too. This game goes on sale a lot so I’d highly suggest getting jt for cheap and trying it out

    I think a lot of us would have appreciated a more optional approach to a lot of the story stuff back at the base. Some of it can go on for a long time, may not be particularly engaging or exciting, and can just leave you wishing you could get back to the combat loop. Also, what’s up with that walking/jogging animation at the home base? I’ve spent $50 in the Unreal store and imported motion captured animations, ready for use in a commercial game, that looked better than that and could be hooked up in a few hours.

    It’s a very good game that, when I recommend it, typically comes with an asterisk attached.

      They had a free weekend and I was enjoying it until all of the story stuff back at the base. I typically like that kind of stuff but there was way too much of it.

        I think the big problem wasn’t just the quantity, but the content. Every conversation felt like a character was just narrating their wiki bio to me, and not actually talking about anything current.

        Everbody is collapsing into their lower back and would be way imbalanced in real life. Running would be painful with that posture.

      Yeah I couldn’t care less about the story and just wanted more fights.

      I refunded the game because the goddamn animations couldn’t be sped up 100x or skipped. Yeah dawg I get it blades doing a flip or some shit jfc

      Yeah I just wanted to play the arena combat.

      I wanted to buy a $40 deck builder game with cool IP, they wanted to sell me a $70 AAA production with a bunch of external stuff that I found pretty boring.

      I ended up not buying.

      I got the impression the writers had read a bunch of niche Marvel comics and wanted to impress with that knowledge. Maybe some fans of those characters actually enjoy that, but it didn’t flow well. I barely had any context for who this Hunter is, who Lilith is, and why they matter.
