I was waiting for this game for so long to be DRM free! I'm excited. I love the game, and the art style is great. I took off one star because while it's near perfect, it's very hard to get into if you don't look at the wiki or have someone in game to play with and guide you.
While the game starts out with an interesting concept, it soon gets tedious and repetitive. The game itself is ambitious and shares the same flaw as most MMO’s today. Its game world is beautiful, open and seemingly large but shallow. The soundtrack is great and the plot is interesting but can only hold ones interest about halfway through the game until the soul and fighting combat system comes to light. The soul transferring is bland and makes your character seem pointless. The hand to hand combat system makes you want to pound your face into your desk. It’s difficult to beat because the computer opponents cheat and it’s buggy and has poor hit detection. The game seems just to have squandered it’s potential and I can’t help but think how much better it could have been if it were half its size. I would only recommend this game if you absolutely love science fiction and can look over ambitious, shallow and flawed games. I would, however, recommend Deus Ex instead.
