The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of depth and replayability, with players noting that it revolves around only three repetitive missions and offers no collectibles or alternate routes to enhance the experience. This results in a monotonous gameplay loop that fails to engage players beyond the initial playthrough.
“There's really nothing there to push me to do that though; there's no replayability, no collectibles to find, no alternate routes, just the same three missions to go through again and again.”
“All weapons unlocked, all three missions played through multiple times.”
“Drive around shooting the enemies, completing your missions, and upgrading your vehicle.”
