“The gameplay is incredibly satisfying to watch, seeing people with practice cut through the world like butter genuinely fires me up to improve, to become one such player.”
“Boring game with a terrible story and repetitive gameplay.”
“The gameplay is frustrating, the story isn't that good, (it might be better if you collected all the secret voice tapes but the basic stuff is not that good) its quite short, and the ending in my opinion was anticlimactic.”
“The mechanics are simple yet don't fit well with the environment, which isn't built for the mechanics.”
