A game that wishes it was a cool as it looked.
Watching the trailer for this game honestly got me pretty hyped. A Cyberpunk iso-shooter / Diablo-like? That sounds like a dream game. Too bad it kind of sucks.
The menus are overwhelming and full of information that implies this game has a lot of depth to it but it's quite shallow and boring. The general visual design is neat and Cyberpunk-y but I weirdly think the world is too detailed for an isometric game like this. It's often quite difficult to see where you're suppose to go or what you can interact with.
+ Good visual design
- Level of detail makes it visually cluttered.
- Menu is full of an overwhelming amount of info
- Incremental stat increases that feel meaningless
- Gameplay gets stale fast.
- Bad voice acting and boring story
