IMPORTANT: WOULD HAVE THIS AS RECOMMENDED BUT YOU NEED TO PATCH THE GAME YOURSELF TO RUN ON NEWER COMPUTERS DUE TO A BUG WITH 4+ CORE PROCESSORS. THIS IS A FIX THAT THE PUBLISHERS COULD HAVE DONE BUT FOR SOME REASON HAS NOT. ♥♥♥♥ YOU ACTIVISION. IT'S NOT THAT HARD BUT BEWARE!

A fine 2000s shooter if you need to scratch that itch. But the story feels disjointed, NPCs complain too much if you're not lighting fast, and the ending + final boss blew monkey ♥♥♥♥.

If you want an REALLY good game with bullet time, try F.E.A.R if you haven't. Funny thing is they were both initially published by Sierra.

7/10. Sometimes all you need to scratch an itch.

Super slow start and mediocre gunplay. If the upgrades were more impactful I'd prob get behind the gameplay more. I guess the rouge lite mechanics just don't click for me since I prefer if in-run upgrades were more impactful.

Also the health system just blows.

Also doesn't really play like a boomer shooter. Never listen to user tags.

The message didn't really connect with me. Felt like a playground argument.

Didn't really connect with anyone in the story and if anything the group of people in the story is a group I wouldn't want to stick around with at all if this was a legit scenario. Wish I could have interacted with the NPCs and the game would have benefited if there were like multiple ending or something from player choice.

The NPCs and gameplay being jank also was a bit immersion breaking because you're expected to think these are real people and not pre-recorded dialog.

Framing was interesting but it didn't feel properly explored/fleshed out.

Only thing this game has going for it is good visuals (say for the character designs).

The gameplay is abhorrent mostly due to the lackluster speed and control of Penny. The homing attack and peel out are janky to use and "combat" is just annoying.

Genuinely the only reason why I played Fallout 4. Wish Ada had more unique dialog since she's treated like a normal robot you can build.

My friend shouldn't have to "upgrade" to windows 11 so we can play together.

Please fix this issue.

Abhorrent UI, slow game play, clunky physics, and super anti-consumer practices.

It only makes me yearn for pre-Epic Games Fall guys.

Probably the most fun I've had with a half life 2 mod ever.

New prime asset makes me hard.

An extremely unique game that we will never get again.

A few visual and audio glitches with this version of the game, but still an amazing game nonetheless.
