• Co op lets you invite friends or add random players when setting up a mission.
• The Armoury lets you choose presets and do the loadout for weapons, exoskeleton, and devices.
• Guns feel really good, meaty yet easy to wield. Aiming and shooting are snappy.
• When in your base, you have this drop-down computer to set up your mission, loadouts, and invites. It looks really good and always sets up the level and story.
• Memorable characters.
• End of mission breakdown.
• Find and collect cash from containers within the levels.
• Take photos, and these act like collectibles.
• Great character profile pop-up sequences when you meet a new character.
• Puzzle and platform elements, along with big boss or end-of-level scenarios.
• The world does look good when I can see it.
• I found the game not to be fun to play, but I can see so much potential.

La Quimera Review Cons

• The mouse cursor stays on screen even when using the controller.
• No graphics benchmark test.
• You cannot remap the controls for the controller.
• Minimal accessibility options with no Colourblind support.
• You cannot skip the opening cutscenes.
• The performance of the game is up and down, more so when a load of enemies appear and fire and rain are lashing down.
• When you die, you have a long respawn time, usually involving a screen telling you it’s reverting to the last checkpoint and then a loading screen.
• The gunplay is not as snappy as it should be, even with maximum aim assist, the gunplay is sluggish and doesn’t feel great.
• Any type of ammo or health packs is really hard to see, especially in the thick of battle.
• I found the game to be badly optimised, I couldn’t get a solid frame rate, putting graphics on low or medium would make things not load correctly, a lot of slowdown, and pop-ups. I don’t have a crap or amazing laptop but I really struggled to get it going smoothly.
• You cannot pause the game even in single-player.
