I purchased the game after seeing videos of the gameplay and was hooked. I love the aesthetic of the game, the photo realism and the grit but specicially the attention to detail and love for the films that was on display. The interface, the abilities and the plot does a great job of putting you in the role of Robocop and the weird retro futurism of his world. This was faithfully made to the source material and I couldn't ask for much more. There are a few minor issues with performance and optimisation: one instance happened specifically in the quarry area that was strangely solved by shooting an enviromental trigger (a crane with some rocks over some snipers when introduced). Over 16 hours, that was the worst performance hit. Regarding the pseudo RPG skill tree and weapon upgrade there are some room for improvement. In the end, with missing a few secrets, some failed objectives etc, I ended up with over half of the skills (6 and a half lines filled) but some were far better and useful than others. For example I'm still not sure what Psychology was giving me, as the dialogue options it highlights were obviously correct ones anyway. The Auto 9 upgrade feature was the main source of a lot of my damage and did keep the same weapon fresh. That being said the RPG elements felt a little overengineered. I would find myself sticking to some PCBs a lot longer as they were just better than the supposed upgrades. The enemy types you've seen before if you've played a FPS game in the last 25 years: exploding guy, armoured guy, melee guy etc. A lot of encouters are just you shooting scum apart with a bit of gore, but ultimately that is exactly what I signed up for so I wasn't disappointed! Robocop doesn't cover shoot, can barely speedwalk and aside an ability to zip forward, he's a tank and he plays like one. It makes me wonder what a Terminator game would play like... Overall, highly recommended especially if you enjoyed the films, a decent story or just a good FPS.
