i only have played the intro so far, so I will review this edit in due time once I play through chapter 1. what I played was a fantastic example of indie games that are so incredibly individualistic to the creator, that the aesthetics can coincide perfectly with the gameplay. an indulgence in the hyper-masculine fantasy of being a vigilante figure in a lawless land with heavy critiques on capitalism and consumerism as a whole. the dialogue is so clearly written by someone who spends a lot of time online, in the best way possible. it embraces its edge and i love it for that.

the asethetics of this game line up so beautifully with the gameplay, as its honestly a challenging game. its a challenging game for characters that live in a punishing and cruel world, and its most noticed in the boss fight. you have to earn your win for there, i was almost contemplating whether it was too hard or not, but once it clicks, it clicks. there could be better indications for when you are actually making progress within an enemy's health bar though.

if you play through this game, try beating the prologue level with both characters. they play very differently from one another despite only one thing changing about them. i also didnt know how to save at first, so i had to restart the game because i accidentally started from the beginning, so honestly thats my main reason for replaying it, but im glad as it actually gave me a proper chance to really see this game through. talk to the robot outside of the store at the start of the game and listen to what it has to say all the way through. this game rewards patience and replayability.

incredibly strong opener, will give my thoughts on the dlc and edit this once i play it, if it started off this strong, im looking forward to what the dlc will offer!

i think it could also use more in game mouse utility, i forgot that you had to press E to start the round and i thought my game was messed up for a moment LOL

after beating the story mode for this game, i highly recommend it to anyone who wants one of the best single player shooter experiences in a video game.
ive been listening to podcasts where this game is talked about highly, which is what prompted me to purchase it in the first place. its been described as having the substance and the style of the game go hand in hand.
"the substance is the style" and thats honestly so true, this game is a perfect speedrun game that rewards you for replaying the levels over and over, bringing out the perfectionist within you.
this game is addictive start to finish, and despite beating the story mode (which offers an amazing take on how a narrative for a FPS game can be presented, fantastic mise-en-scene with top notch voice acting) i can see myself revisiting this game just to be able to wild out on the challenge levels the game offers.

parkour around a snowy forest as a badass ex-government-mercenary and level out a power fantasy that not many games offer you. you dont have to even be good at this game to have the sickest in game action sequences!

i havent been able to play games as often as i used to, and im glad i picked this one up out of everything i could have. please buy it whenever you can, the devs put LOVE into this. banger soundtrack also, it really gets you amped up.

ive legit had moments in this game where i felt adrenaline kick in from playing it, which was a fantastic experience.

what if you just wanted to be epic as ♥♥♥♥: the video game

kick buttouski if he hated the government and became an ex mecernary
