This is one of those games where the less said the better. Just dive in, and be immersed. But:

Story: Solid, but predictable to a degree if you try to. So don't.
Characters: Great. Some in depth history, audio logs, and also some good voice acting.
Graphics: Looks great. Has a great aesthetic, sort of a cross between art deco and 90's anime sci fi. So not futuristic space, but gritty space.
Music: Can't say I noticed it, but that's not to say its bad. The sound design is great overall, and the music kicks in to amplify the vibe - it doesn't stand out as it doesn't try to.
Gamplay: Can get a bit annoying and janky at times, but you can save when you want etc. Plus, there's a lot of duplicate ways around things. Can't get in a door? Break the window and shoot the manual override from the other side etc. The upgrade system is logical, and simple, but expansive. So for instance moving larger heavier things out of doorways is the simple route - but what if you can then jump on it and get on the roof of another area?

Overall, I bought this on launch, forgot about it, and played it in 2022. And I'd honestly say it's worth what I paid for it. So get it on sale and enjoy even more.
