While it's only words and music, this game is rough, and evokes considerable thought. You're shielded from the truth, and the truth of your decisions often lack nuance when the public hears them. A lot like real life.
While the game runs there are gameplay and AI limitations that completely break the experience. Pathfinding is terrible and hoods will frequently take the 6 block route to go the half block place you've directed them. Kill orders typically fail against running targets ( so when your office is known your chances of intercepting murder squads you absolutely know are coming are near 0. When I say fail I mean generally your hoods don't even shoot, they run next to them for a bit and give up, or they run next to them for a bit not firing and police shoot your hoods. ) Your limited to 4 hoods guarding your offices front in total out of your entire gang, so the enemy gangs 4 person hit squad will generally kill about ten of your hoods per attack in collateral damage. All the breaking bugs seem to effect only the player though. I want so badly for this game to be good but playing it is fighting the screwed up mechanics processing in addition to the AI opponents. When I say screwed up mechanics, I don't mean I don't like the mechanics, I mean they do not function properly.
