It's actually the worst possible outcome: if the game sucked it'd be hilarious, if it was great we'd have a great game, and instead we have a good game (performance issues aside) that was supposed to be great. The graphics are legit very nice, the writing is... videogame-writing, and the gameplay is like a 7.5-8/10. Speccing in to shotguns and running at +50% movespeed with the "shotguns have a 50% chance of dismembering" is fun, but it's fun because that's fun in every game, it's nothing specific to the game that would bring it beyond "good."
e: Actually, I also forgot the funniest playstyle, which is that the Ping quickhack (which shows you all enemy locations, through walls) is glitched and removes all bullet non-penetration, which means use a sniper and shoot through 10 walls like there's nothing there.
Hmmm I might have to throw that into my spec if I ever jump back in, although even with just the armor boost when you're moving + how easy it is to get health packs it's already too easy. But turning it into a full on Doom/Quake game would be fun.
I'm sorry. I said the reflections would probably look good and they do (the mirrors are a joke though), but the game was a dumpster fire outside of that.
i been ringing that bell for over a year having not seen a single piece of coverage about it -- just hole-in-one'd that one blind based on people's hype alone.
i told everyone on here like 2 days before release the game was gonna suck and i still had people in my menshies defending the game.
