Ok they nailed, and I mean *nailed* the gameplay loop. It is 30 seconds of fun over and over and over. The combat is varied, empowering, and challenging at the right times. I can’t say enough about the guns and compare mechanics. In addition the atmosphere, music, story are all engrossing, wonderfully sci-fi and dystopian. In fact, the presentation is *so* good it makes you wonder why it is relatively one note. I’d love to see the team add more moments of color and incorporate even more diverse styles. The only negative thing is the backtracking or sheer size that several of the levels demands. They take too long or are too circuitous. Something like more distinct set pieces or more straightforward levels would’ve improved my rating. That said, the gameplay is SO fun it more than makes up for some of the level design. I can tell the combat, story, and overall vibe was built with intention and passion so this game is really worth your time and money.
