Okay with friends
Fairly solid beat-em-up, but is borderline unplayable unless you're playing with friends. The problem lies with the game's gimick, the "Nekro" drug that you inject yourself with and extract from fallen enemies. In a multiplayer game, this mechanic adds a lot of interesting interactions to yet another entry in an otherwise predictable genre. Since extracting Nekro takes time ( a LOT of time) you and your friends will be regularly covering one other while the other extracts. Note that you need to protect your friends while they extract, or vice versa? Guess what will definitely not be happening in solo play. As cool as the Nekro mechanics are, in single player you'll rarely have a chance to extract from enemies as you're under constant assault. Combined with the facts that enemies that carry Nekro are rare, there is a limited amount of time in which you can extract from them, AND you absolutely NEED Nekro to keep yourself alive, you have a perfect storm of frustration. To be fair, bots are available. The catch here is that the bots are pretty dumb. Nearly every stage has some sort of environmental hazzard and these bots have no idea how to handle them. Before Mother Russia Bleeds, I've never witnessed someone just hang out near a live grenade. So, bots are dumb, who cares? Just bring them along, whats the worst that could happen, you might think. Well, the game scales the size of enemy mobs based on the number of players. So, sure, bring bots, they might accidentally watch your back while you extract once or twice. And then they die, and you can either use that Nekro you've been saving up to revive them, or you can fight four players worth of enemies all alone. Basically, if you've got 1-3 friends that definately want to play this game, pick it up. Otherwise, I'd skip it.
