Sure, it's good, but…

I do have some qualms with the game:

-It suffers from what I like to call "FromSoftware Syndrome", where every optimized build ends up looking like an unholy mix-and-match of AC pieces that clash visually. The result? A robot that looks more like contemporary art than a war machine.

-On top of that, you have to play through the game at least twice to collect all the necessary parts for some builds, which felt tedious as I already had my fill of the campaign and don't like to play stories more than once. (Looking at you, coral weapons.)

-The difficulty feels inconsistent at times, heavily depending on your build. Some setups make the game feel like a breeze, while others seem gimped in some missions. I understand the player is meant to adapt, but what if I don't find adapting particularly interesting?

-To add to the last point, most ways of playing just aren't particularly stimulating to me, so if you happen to exclusively enjoy a single style of play, don't expect the game to accomodate you.
