Well, my friends all got this from the winter sale and sang its praises to me. I said "looks fun, but I dunno if I'll spend 30 bucks on it." So one of my friends got it for me. Would I have spent 30 bucks? Kinda? In terms of Fun™ it's definitely worth it, but if you want a polished game experience, look elsewhere.

Gameplay is sorta like Serious Sam in that it's a shooter based around taking on huge mobs of enemies. Each mission's objective (at least 40 missions in) is to exterminate all GIANT INSECTS/Robots/Monsters/whatever on the map. You have 3 fun classes and the Ranger, who is effective but isn't as exciting due to a lack of gimmicks.
-Ranger has consistent ground mobility and pretty standard weapons like rifles and grenade launchers. Still decently fun, if a bit... unimaginitive I guess?
-Wing Diver gets a jetpack as well as a host of laser/plasma weapons. Really cool to float around the combat area while exterminating bugs with her ridiculous weapons
-Air Raider is a support class who can call in air strikes and vehicles. He also has stuff like laser guiding kits and mines but who would use that stuff when you can just nuke the enemy or call in a Gundam?
-Fencer is essentially a Warhammer 40k Terminator. You choose 4 weapons which are wielded in pairs. These include shields, greatswords, gatling guns, high caliber cannons, shoulder mounted mortars, and more. While slow, a skilled player can make the Fencer dance around the battlefield with dashes and animation cancelling. My personal favorite class, with Air Raider at a close second.

This game is so jank that it loops back around to being charming. Story is laughably bad, probably on purpose. Dialogue is the exact same - nobody can accidentally write something this awful. Graphics look like something out of 2006, probably so the game doesn't implode when you have to fight 200 ants at the same time. The only ACTUAL flaw is the underground missions due to the darkness and close quarters.

And the game isn't just piss easy. You play through the game on normal, and then the REAL game begins. The enemies are tougher, but your arsenal just gets better and better. Tactics and teamwork actually matter.

Overall, EDF is an exceptional game. Definitely buy it if you love having Fun™, but if you want a serious game with cutting edge graphics, emergent AI, all the bells and whistles, stay away. You'll probably like this game anyway, though.

It's horrifically unoptimized right now on my moderate system. It was fun once things fully rendered after a few minutes, but it had too many hard freezes and other technical issues for me to wholeheartedly recommend it right now. I can see this game becoming a must have in a year or so once it's all optimized

insert joke about Pac-Man eating drugs here

Spending 10 minutes crawling through a cornfield to flank a fortified control point was legitimately one of the most intense moments I've ever had in gaming. Bullets whizzed overhead, armored vehicles exploded left and right, and my squad was in danger of being spotted at any moment. Finally, we lined up, counted to 5, then we all charged the control point, knowing not all of us were gonna make it. We yelled battle cries into our microphones as we sprinted forward, expecting to be met with a stream of bullets.

There was nobody defending the control point.

I've tried 3 times to get into this game but literally the only positive is that it has maybe the best character customization in any single player game (In terms of looks. Weapon types are extremely limited). Combat is dull and enemies take waaay too many hits to kill, story sucks, world is agonizingly boring, quests are repetitive and simplistic, music isn't anything noteworthy, graphics are barely decent. Stay away, don't believe the hype. The Witcher 3, Nier Automata, Dark Souls, and even Skyrim are better action RPGs which will give you much more in terms of fun and story. I wish I had made the right choice and refunded this piece of crap, but everyone was like "oh give it time, it eventually stops being awful." It didn't.

Bar none the best simulated duck combat game

A damn great game with a damn awful community

So far, I don't get the hate. Plays like a less clunky Resident Evil 4 with added stealth mechanics. Combat is fun, utilizing traps, the environment, and an assortment of different crossbow bolts. It features better exploration than RE4, with many secret stashes to find. However, don't come in expecting it to scare the pants off you; it's unnerving but not terrifying.

Unless you want nostalgia, go for the more recent titles. Does not hold up like other classic games
