Honeslty, it's fun but short. I've yet to play "Dome Keeper", so I really don't have a point of reference, and I have not played the "Deep Threat" DLC. Ending is lackluster to say the least, and the gameplay is repetitive. No point in a second play through. I enjoyed the gameplay loop (Mine, grab resources, upgrade weapons/ship/mech, fight wave, repeat) just long enough to beat the game, and I might consider getting the DLC.

In short, if you are interest in playing the game Get it on a sale, it goes below $5 very often (including at the time of this review).

A game that improves in almost every way from it's previous title, except in its PC performance (I cannot speak for Xbox or PS5). The abilities are fun, the stances are new and upgraded, and the story was captivating all the way through. I had two issues with the game, first and foremost, the performance is still hit and miss even a year after its release. Second, the ending was good, but I felt that they dragged it out a tad too long for my liking. It felt that the ending was right around the corner, then it wasn't and you still had a few hours of playtime. Not to say that it was a bad ending or they didn't add anything, I just felt that it went a little long when I was ready for it to end. Great game though, and would highly recommend playing it through, I hope to play it through a second time soon!

One of the better story driven Half-Life 2 mods out there. You play as a combine soldier (or "Metrocop" I guess) and you have to single-handedly fight against the rebellion. Simple premise, but the storyline is good, and the gameplay is rather enjoyable. The main issue I had was that I got so lost at two separate points in the game that I had to no clip my way around to try to figure out were I was supposed to go. Maybe that's just a skill issue I have, and my monkey brain is just too dumb to figure things out regularly, but I'd still recommend playing through this game at least once.
