The game's story is criticized for lacking clarity and depth, with players expressing confusion over mission objectives and a desire for a more cohesive narrative to enhance immersion. Many players find the mission structure disjointed, as they often finish tasks without understanding their significance, leading to a repetitive experience dominated by combat rather than storytelling. Additionally, the cumbersome inventory and crafting systems detract from the overall narrative engagement.
- “Maybe a bigger audience will be drawn in from the quest crowd with the standalone release, but one can only hope.”
- “I would also like some sort of overarching narrative/story (it doesn't have to be that deep) that helps add context to your actions and further immerses you.”
- “And the game wants me to provide proof of finishing missions, but I have no idea what those are... when I finish a mission it just successfully ends and another pops up.”
- “So you cannot go through your inventory, missions, or map without holstering your weapon, which I couldn't do because my inventory was full and I couldn't drop anything... I don't even know what my mission was, I had to neutralize a signal disruptor, but there was nothing in the mission area except continuously respawning enemies (but luckily also respawning loot).”

The gameplay is described as fun and straightforward, featuring a large open world and high replayability, though it suffers from janky mechanics and controls. Key gameplay elements are often broken or buggy, particularly with weapon handling, and there is a lack of onboarding for new players to grasp the systems effectively. Overall, while there are enjoyable aspects, the execution leaves much to be desired.
- “Very fun and very straightforward gameplay; it has a lot of replayability and a very big open world to explore.”
- “Granted, it's a bit rough around the edges here and there, but there are some seriously good mechanics on display.”
- “The most important mechanics are broken and buggy: weapons don't work, they dance in your hands, making it impossible to trust your aim and movement. Sometimes your weapon freezes on reload and never recovers.”
- “There is very little to no onboarding/tutorialization that helps new players understand the systems and mechanics.”
- “Janky mechanics and controls.”
