Not bad, not bad at all.

Contrary to earlier reviews, this game is actually a pretty fun tactical third-person shooter, with a basic, though well thought out skill system and a solid loot-and-shoot system

The story is a pretty standard post-apocalyptic style story, and while the premise is very interesting, overall the story is just there to give us a reason, and isn't really needed to fully enjoy the game.

Actual gameplay, however is very well put together, with the snap-cover system leading to taking a more thought out strategic approach to most situations, which is a nice change of pace from other games in the market. (Note: Run and Gun is next to impossible to pull off at higher difficulties) Challenge is ever present, and while early on it mostly comes from very bullet spongy enemies, once you hit level cap (which is 30), it shifts more to Smart Cover advantage and more tactical approaches to combat.

Movement can feel a bit floaty, and I would highly suggest rebinding the "go-over-cover" button to something more convenient for you, as the base key binds can be a bit clunky to use and can lead to you performing actions you didn't intend to.

Graphically, the game is gorgeous, showing off how good the Snowdrop engine is, and technical aspects aside, the inclusion of interactive environments makes the game more immersive, such as tires being destroyed when shot, it's the little things that add up.

Overall, I feel it grew past it's initial launch woes and it now really stands on its own.

A solid 7/10
