Game is repetitive, buggy, and unbalanced in terms of difficulty. There's a popular comparison, which I agree with, that basically positions the game as a imitation-grade Mass Effect 1, especially in terms of the (subpar) combat systems and the writing, though the latter does eventually go to some interesting, vaguely-meta places. In the end, The Bureau still functions as an acceptable FPS alternative to the strategy-genre XCOM games for those interested in a more character-based narrative.
