Fascinating gameplay loop, literally. It was a little weird to get into at the beginning but the early unlockable really helps it click. The repetition ends up being more interesting than annoying, which I was originally worried about. By the end, I was able to formulate my plan of attack which played out as anticipated and was extremely satisfying.

Positives:
- Good graphics
- Interesting lore and a well-crafted world
- Satisfying loop
- Weapons and unlocks/trinkets are fun and feel good
- The "detective" work was really cool and enjoyable. Really helped the satisfaction.
- Humorous dialogue/interactions
- Paying attention really pays off

Negatives:
- AI can be brain dead
- Some of the unlockables are uninteresting - I don't even think I used one or two of them. I found a setup I liked and pretty much stuck to that.
- I feel like the ending could use something more... At least the one I saw - I may go back through the final loop just to see if there are any other outcomes.
- Performance was generally great but then would tank for seemingly no reason. 120 fps to 20 fps. Couldn't explain it. Usually restarting (which is annoying to do if you've made progress in a time of day and have to start again) or tabbing out and back in would fix it. Possibly a system issue, but I don't see this in other games.
- The inventory screen can feel jumbled and the pop-ups flood the screen. Sometimes I just want to see if I have any duplicates, but that dang pop-up just takes up the whole view. Sorting would be helpful, too. This is particularly painful in the late game after gathering so many items.
