How dare you compare this to Doom?
I was *so* excited for this game. Jank is really the wrong term to use for this game. It's what you call unpolished games that are a real gem in spite of their issues. Hired Gun is not jank, it's a poorly optimized, buggy, crash addict. Comparing this to Doom Eternal is insulting to Doom. In terms of design Streum On Studio have taken inspiration from Doom but they don't have the technical skill or resources to pull off what Doom did. This game isn't even a pale imitation, it's a broken, stitched together mess. I have a character limit, so I'm going to focus on combat, since that's being held up as this games best aspect. Combat is a mess. You have a host of movement options but they never do what you expect them to. The grappling hook doesn't always target what you aim at, sometimes snapping to a surface directly in front of you, sometimes to the side, sometimes it doesn't work. Wall running is sporadic and mostly pointless as many environments are too small or far too open for it to be of any use. The amount of visual pollution makes aiming pointless because you can't see anything to aim at it. Weapons feedback and performance varies wildly, the autogun I first picked up is better and more consistent than a plasma rifle that barely seems to hurt anything, despite having better stats. Most fights have a never-ending clown car of hit scanning enemies that spawn until an objective is met, this is good since you can only carry three health kits which you will rarely pick up, your health doesn't auto regenerate and the only other way to gain health is to damage enemies shortly after you take damage. Which you will. Pretty consistently. No amount of movement is going to save you from that. So why even bother? Stand still, shoot into crowd you can't see properly. You win. You can get shooters that do this for like $2.50 on Steam, you don't need to fork over $50 for the privilege. If you want Doom then go buy that instead. It works and is actually fun.
