“I applaud the developers on the theme and story of the game; there's nothing quite like it.”
“A very fun game with an interesting story and very good voice acting.”
“The campaign is fully voiced and the story has a crazy premise.”
“You're basically forced to run flight missions for a South American drug cartel.”
“Also, you can't skip the intro videos, so you can be 2 seconds from a fully complete mission 500 times and you will have to watch the mission videos 500 times... the timelines get really aggressive really fast, and I think this should be stepped a bit.”
