This game is like if Quake, the original DeusEX and LSD-simulator had a love child.
The augmentations you're able to unlock and use allow you to play this game however you like.
Stealth is as viable of an option as is playing it like an arena shooter. Switching between playstyles is as easy as switching one maybe two augmentations around to make them synergise with the rest of your build.

I can not overstate how much freedom you're given.
Dying is also surprisngly forgiving so don't make the mistake I made and get upset when you get domed in the same level over and over again.

Every time you ask yourself "would the game allow me to do this?" the answer will always be a resounding "yes".

Woke

one of the rare survival games where you're not at abandoned place/forest X, chopping down trees and feasting on monkey anus, unironically 10/10.

I despise every waking minute I spend playing this game, the fact that I'm already clocking in at 525h is actually depressing, I know for a fact that I will most likely 3x this playtime in a few months time.
It doesn't get better, you don't get better, I've been stuck in low elo hell for as long as I can remeber, stop the clock, skibidi toilet or whatever you kids say.

save yourselves.
