Simplistic yet a beautiful shooter
XIII is a plot heavy game, and it's where they put the most emphasis on, so gameplay stays in background. I don't say this in a bad way though, It just doesn't shine as much as it's unique style and great plot, but it still has extremely good pacing and has some engaging moments that it'll just grab you and never let you go basically, thanks to the way plot is delivered and the way pacing goes. It's really gripping stuff. One fault I'd say is the stealth system. Some levels are stealth mandatory and to make those levels difficult, they decided to keep checkpoints relatively few or completely absent from some of the levels, so some of those levels becomes trial and error and it may frustrate you at times. It could've been way better. And there's also the awful save system this game has. Now, XIII is a unique shooter, the way it's save system works is also pretty unique but in a bad way. It relies on checkpoints, which is perfectly fine, it's just that checkpoints are pretty rare or like I said, completely absent from some of the levels. And the way they work is terrible, whenever you get to a checkpoint, you have to quick save to save that checkpoint, or save it from the menu, otherwise, when you don't save at all and just rely on the checkpoints without saving manually, you'll notice that when you start the game that checkpoint save will not be there, so, never forget to either quicksave the checkpoints, or save the checkpoints from the menu. Apart from those annoyances, there's really not much fault to this game. Presentation still mostly holds up to this day, it's a great looking and sounding game with beefy gun sounds, good voice acting and an amazing jazz soundtrack which dynamically adapts to your gameplay. It just screams quality and uniqueness that it's really surprising how this game became so underrated really. Definitely worth the buy I'd say.
