Passable shooter/simplistic missions
Playing this in 2024, my experiences with this game after 13 hours were: this is a mission-based shooter with really simplsitic missions. The RPG progression is glacially slow. I'm writing this for people who aren't completionists, and I would say 13 hours is more than enough to inform a purchase decision. The shooting part: good. The RPG mechanics: several systems (skill points ala fallout in categories like hacking and shooting), cybernetic upgrade (e.g. regain stamina faster, faster sprint) and research (e.g. armor more efficient). It's all done through a single resource. However, this is a long-term commitment. At the end of the game my best stat was shooting at 54 (out of 100?), the rest in the 30s and mid 40s, aka basically starting level. I didn't do all the side missions (see missions below) but the ones I did gave unsatisfyingly little reward. The story: cryptically told but easy enough to figure out. Didn't keep me playing. Structure: it is important to understand that this is nothing like your average RPG. There is no real interaction with the environment, and it is structured more like a map-based MMO. You get sent to a map and given a set of quests. Then you free-roam until everything is done. You might stumble upon NPCs from time to time, but these are side-quest triggers or alternate ways of completing a mission. The maps are basically combat arenas and you go around shooting people and pressing buttons. They are also vey thinly populated, with large distances to cover, like an MMO map, only with less stuff in it. Enemies respawn (like in an MMO, can be adjusted in settings). Overall, an unengaging world with respawning enemies, no engaging quests and but good gunplay. It might get better at higher levels but honestly, after arriving in a map that seems to be the climactic battle and being a) underleveled [not that the game tells you that] and b) being spawn-killed over and over, I think I'll just go play Mass Effect instead.
