One of the few games I beat. Enjoyed it. Interesting combat system, easy to make any build you want. Karma system included makes for some fun attacks and defense.

That being said, gameplay gets stale after a while. While there is a bunch to do, none of it is necessary to beat the game.

The primary villain isnt an end game boss at all, and the actual end game bosses are beatable through quick time events and mecha that aren't effected by your load out or skills. It's like a different game against the endgame bosses.

My favorite part of the game was just exploring around looking for fights. Making enemies and allies while shooting guns John woo style.

My advice is to buy a physical copy, they are dirt cheap because the game didn't meet expectations.i remember when it flopped on release.myown copy came free with ps plus, so buyer beware. Watch some gameplay videos first. Otherwise grab it when it seems like an easy get. It's worth a try at least

Gameplay videos are fun but the game gets stale hard. Watching the initial gameplays you would expect the game to grow and get more depth over time, but it won't. Perhaps it would be a fun game for kids but not teens or adults.

Thanks, yeah I'll probably pick it up at a big discount to load up on the steam deck and put a couple hours into.
