What I liked:
-The general gameplay
-I am perfectly fine with the Synty assets and graphical style.
-The sound effect for the level-up currency is not grating

What I disliked:
-Some of these things will change for me over time as I learn, and they do not really cause me to regret purchasing this game.
-The comic-book style story telling is great, but the font they used when there is dialogue is not comic-booky at all
-There is no way to disable the Mute Audio on Focus Loss (the game does not completely pause though, so that is good)
-There is auto fire, but not full auto aim.it is "something like" 90-180 degrees auto aim in the direction you are facing.
-Ricochet bullets are way too flashy.
-When pausing the game, I cannot use the cancel button to leave, I must press the pause button to leave the pause menu.
-I do not think that this game allows you to purchase permanent upgrades like in other vs style games. There are unlock conditions for other things and playable characters (kill this many with lightning), which I am familiar with, but I was also hoping to start a run slightly faster or slightly stronger without Fusion.
-At first, the menu felt clunky with a controller. Some aspects of the menu like ticking checkboxes (for Filter) I was forced to use my mouse because incorrect controller presses moved me away from what i was looking at. I do not know how to uncheck that box on the controller. One example of my experienced clunkiness: In the Battle Tab, I can press LT to go to the Fuse menu, but I do not know the kb/m command to get to the Fuse menu. Clicking on it does not work. After pressing LT to Fuse, and then A to Quit, my left thumbstick does not work to move me away from my character icon..but after clicking on Quit with the mouse from the Fuse menu, I CAN click on other characters in the Battle tab. In the Fuse menu, after a fusion, the second perk that was added has a white scroll bar to show more of the text description, but I can not use the scroll wheel, move the scroll bar with the mouse, or use the directional pad to see what else was written there.
-The Catalogue does not allow you to hold left thumbstick to scroll. You must press down on the left thumbstick over and over again (not L3 click). (I do not know how to change the Filter checkbox or access the dropdown menus with the controller.) The scroll wheel on the mouse does work, but there is no scroll bar. There is also no page drag and scroll. There is a small white down arrow but it can not be clicked to navigate downward, I think it is just an indicator that there are more items to view.
-The Catalogue does not allow rotation when viewing.
-Characters do not allow rotation in the Battle tab.
-The Catalogue does not show magazine sizes, or cooldowns, or any number values at all.
-Please fix!! I do not know how to open the map during gameplay. The button prompt underneath the mini-map (View button/pizza boxes) does not take me to a full map or close/toggle the mini-map.
-I dislike that there is multiplayer achievement.
-Sometimes the game will crash.
-Please fix!! I just fused my first character to have a dog and he whistles too much! On another Gladiator run I didn't even have a dog and he was whistling. This is very annoying. Please reduce this by 95% !
I found my first few hours of this game to be fun. I will play it for more than five hours.
