• Cover-based shooting is a thing and you recover health quicker in cover.

• You can replay contributions.
• Upgrade weapons with resources you decide to keep.
• Your thorn has a power gauge for three levels of charged thorn attack.
• What I like about the Thorn is it let’s you go off climbing all over the place, artack distant enemies in awesome action movie encounters.
• Big enemies called Abductors can have parts of them locked onto, depending on the colour of the reticule depends on what it does so it can be the pod, vulnerable to dragdown or a part you can cut off.
• Abductors have civilians in a pod inside them and killing the Abductor will release the civilian.
• Plays like a hi-tech over-the-top Monster Hunter in the bigger encounters.
• Awesome-looking character models.
• When in the field you need to rescue civilians by picking them up and dropping them off at special pods.

• Loadout lets you choose your two weapons, module layout, thorn type, and combat items.
• Modules can be attached to add further buffs to weapons and gear.

• Entitlements points are earned from playing and you spend these in the catalogues in your cell to unlock new permissions in one of the three entitlement categories – everyday (missions/jobs), aesthetic, and equipment.
• Sustainability is another way of saying how many lives you have and losing them all is a mission failure. Getting sustainability to 20 percent or less increases your sentence.
• Fast loading times.
• Your accessory can accompany you in contributions and you have basic commands for them like carrying civilians but you unlock more commands with entitlements.
• It’s a game for me that scratches many itches and is an addictive loop of farming and top tier action.
• Commonly after you do your objective you have a brief amount of time to quickly navigate the world and grab resources or you can press skip to finish straight away.
• The story is really good and has many cool twists within it and could be a look into the world’s future here.

• In solo play, you can pause the game.
• Parts broken off Abductors are in the floor and you walk over then to collect them.
• Facility management is where you put entitlement and resources into either weapon or abilities development.
• Affiliates is where you create your own rap sheet and can share them online, it’s like a player card with you editing your – callsign, comments, Sinner pose, and accessory pose.
• Online play lets you do missions with other players and has its own hub.
• Invasion operations is where you can launch assaults on other Panopticons to lower their GPP and push them down the leaderboards.

• The citizen’s promenade and cell gardens can have resources to find and events to find and take part in.

FREEDOM WARS Remastered Contribution Edition Review Cons:

• The game did not automatically download the contribution pack so check your managed game content beforehand, you go here for the Japanese voice download aswel.
• It’s funny and bad but the game tries to say your name and it has mixed results.
• The allegiance part of character creator doesn’t seem that important and you don’t get told anything about it when choosing.
• Music volumes sound all over the place with the music being louder than the voices happening a lot.
• The character creator is limited with no dedicated facial hair choices and you cannot be bald!
• You cannot set the interaction text to auto-scroll.
• The game is a slow starter as you have to do a whole series of tutorial-like contributions and get loads of stories.
• Learning how to quickly switch between lock on areas is not as smooth as you want.
• No accessibility options like Colourblind or changing button mashing to holding the button down.
• Small name entry.
• The camera goes crazy a lot of time in combat.
• Constant rule violations can be frustrating more because early game it’s constant.
• I’m saying this purely so you know but you cannot transfer or even transfar your Vita save to the PlayStation 5.
