  • A lot to take in.
  • Tutorial pop-ups especially in the first few missions are constant.
  • The slow pace in both combat and exploration.
  • So many menus and needless clicking.
  • A lot of reading from tutorial stuff to in-game lore or mission briefings.
  • Loot drops are not as frequent for a game in the same arena as Diablo and Grim Dawn.
  • Upgrade tree whilst huge, Is very intimidating and not that great to interact with.
  • The cover doesn’t work that well and is awkward to pull off, especially when in combat.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
