Cool game, but fails to balance even the most basic things. Balance in a 'hero' shooter won't be perfect, but there are some brain dead things like the battle royal mode allowing a lv0 player into extreme difficulty. For reference Easy=0-2000 but hard/extreme also start at 0. All you need is a simple minimum requirement to smooth out the teams. The best mode imo was the battle royale, but the queue times can be up to 20min+ for extreme. Basically dead already as people only play the 'main' modes.

The standard escort/TDM/etc work fine, and if that is your jam and love armored core or fast pasted shooters then this might be great for you.

I suspect many other problems are on the way because their monetization is heavily leaning into $60 FOMO skins for single characters, which is completely insane.

Bad UI. Bad Gatcha. Has a pretty awesome old school dungeon crawler style with good party customization, but is held back by being an always online mobile with daily/weekly quest grinds + monthly sub/p2w packs and all that nonsense. The story seemed basic at first but quickly hints at a potentially cool twist/feature/ng+ options, but I won't spoil that for those who want to enjoy it. I wish it was single player, I have paid $30-50 for worse dungeon crawlers.

Excellent game.

Persona on your 3ds

Good so far, assuming you can run it. Lots of graphical bugs and poor performance, best to wait for updates.

Cool lore. Cool guns. A little repetitive, but not bad when played casually as new updates come out. Lot's of content to unlock for new players now. Issues with launch were fixed, other issues continue to be fixed, pretty good development and support record so far.

Edit: Reluctantly changing my review to a not recommended after hundreds of hours and hundreds of dollars - fully unlocked account with all items. The devs seem to have fired all QA team and stopped optimizing for performance. Every patch the game runs worse, crashes more - even completely locking some player's pcs, more physics problems like clipping through the floor and into the void + etc, and has more network disconnections.

Very rough launch. Not "early access", more so a real alpha. Networking problems, bugs, and features that need work. Give them some time to finish, but for now I would stay away.

"Compiling textures..."

Having beat the game and NG+, I can say that some sections were poorly and aggressively balanced at launch. It is beatable, but you probably won't have fun doing it. Three bosses in particular stopped me in my tracks until I tried several different weapons to cheese the fight (not really though, because it's not exploitable like other souls-like games/no leveling system/weapon and parts limitations based on progress). With this in mind, there are certain weapon types and strategies you are expected to adopt and use to progress, but it's not clear what those are.

Tldr: missiles were always top preforming weapons and I constantly felt pressured to use them on tough bosses, removing much of the variety for me.

Cool game
