I'm sure the game is good, the game's combat mechanics are there and it allows for a verity of play styles and there is an immersive story line...

HOWEVER the game needs some heavy optimization updates before I'll even consider playing it. My PC might not meet the recommended requirements but it's not far off meeting the recommended requirements and even after dumbing down the graphics to medium/low(In some areas) the game was still plagued with low FPS drops and some freezeing for a second or two which can get very annoying during combat.

This game would ordinarily get a 80+ score out of a hundred from me but the constant frame drops/freezing, long loading times and poor game optimization knock that score down to a 15/100. Until it's fixed there's noting to enjoy, the immersion is broken by the low fps and freezing, and you can't enjoy the combat for the exact same reason. On starting the game the shaders took so long to load I literilly went to bed and woke up the next day to start playing it, granted the shaders realistically take about 10-15 minutes to load but I was just after finishing downloading the game and it was late and I needed to explain the 17 hours playtime.

Realistically it's more like 2 hours playtime and even doing a most basic side misson felt like a pain and that's all I did, the opening to the game and one side misson after reaching the first town, it's all i could mentally tollerate before wanting to start smashing my face off the keyboard.

Additionally 140 gigs of space is HEAVY and I mean HEAVY for any modern game, the most I've seen on average for games is about 90 which leads me to question how much effort they put into making sure the game runs smoothly and is optimized correctly as opposed to say.... spending those resources on making flames/water reflections look more realistic. A word to the wise for game devs, preformance comes first, eye candy comes second and you need both to make a good game but if you use too much candy then preformance suffers.

This is a promising game with a lot of potential, It's certainly worth picking up even though it's not fully developed yet as they still have to finish the story line and add a good bit more to the game to flesh it out but on the whole it's shaping up very nicely. I'm not going to give this a rating yet since it's not fully finished as of yet but it's well worth the money.

This game has it's bugs there's no denying it, some of the bugs just require you to exit the game entirely and restart the game and some of the bugs might cause the game to crash and there might be some bugs to do with missions (In terms of trying to accept them and so on). However I feel these bugs, while annoying to deal with do not occur often enough to justify bashing and trashing the game.

The game has a lot going for it, firstly it's packed with content, missions and side missions. There are various character side ark missions and it basically ensures you'll be playing the game for quiet some time assuming you partake in the side missions and so on. There are multiple ways you can tweak and spec your character to adjust to a style you'd prefer to play as, wanna be a tank? Go ahead, wanna be a sneaky stealth assassin? go for it, wanna be a super agile assault unit able to teleport over short distances? What's stopping you?

The game itself feels a little bit too grindy to level up to get to top level and unlock the best gear but then you don't really need the best gear to finish the main story line and side quests so I'm a bit on the fence about that. The game itself has pretty much no replay value beyond just wanting to see what the different outcomes are for various choices since the main plot stays the same or if you're speed running the game but to be honest you'll get a good 40 hours worth of game play at minimum (Assuming you're not just speed running through the game on easy difficulty), I myself got about 80-90 hours of play time playing on the hardest difficulty and doing most of the side quests as well as some random exploring so it's well worth the price, particularly if it's on a discount.


All in all I'd Rate the game about 68/100 because although it's a good game it's still got bugs that could easily be patched so I'll deduct 15 points for that alone.

Do you like cancer? Then this game is for you.

Enjoy playing a game that crashes 8 times for no apparent reason on start up before you can actually play, random crashes during raids and is still full of bugs and glitches that get introduced every time they try to fix a glitch. The last update made guards with the flame walker mod completely irrelevant as they died to flames anyways. Before that the update they made happened to make traps activate behind 2nd wave holo cubes.

Then there's the news update letters.... If you enjoy reading completely irrelevant ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that has nothing to do with the game and just consists of a bunch of cringe meme's then this game is for you I'm talking about this: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1194810/view/3687928795085007796?l=english and this https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1194810/view/3673294633718399903?l=english ..... seriously someone should have been fired for that idea, it's not news, it's just cringe meme's that aren't even good.

Lets talk about the game it'self.... yup it's still ass cancer, the player base is around 70 people, grinding out resources to keep your bases running gets harder with each update and the game is so EASY that even a chimp could complete any raid without much difficulty, trust me there is no deadly challenge, whit or skill involved as the tips and tricks trailer claims 5 seconds into the video.

My recommendation is not to buy this game since they're pushing out content at a snails pace and is nowhere near enough to keep players interested in the game, it's a dying game with a lot of grinding so save your money, your sanity and buy something else.

Brief update as of 10/02/24:
As I predicted the game is dead, the fact that it's been released since April last year and they're struggling to maintain an average player count of 40 is pathetic, I know of indie games developed by one person in their mom's basement and a budget of whatever pocket money mommy gives them per week that have a higher player count 😂. Anyways don't buy the game , I wouldn't even install it if it was free at this point since doing so would be a criminal waste of harddrive space.

This game can be summed up in one 3 minute song.

Fun game, various ways of combining different effects to your weapon and multiple ways to build your character so every run is different and not boring. Finally a game that gets the grinding game play loop right.

95/100
