An absolutely gargantuan game, the maps are some of the most complicated maps I've ever seen in a shooter, and the shooting isn't even the selling point. Just exploring these massive, really densely built labyrinths is the real fun. Add in to that gameplay based more on completing objectives and puzzle solving, it's very surprising that they've used the big booby orcs with guns to try and trick the Sweaty Teenager demographic into a game that is going to be wayyyyy too esoteric for them.

As for me? I love it!!

I also resent this being lumped in with other Boomer Shooters who are nothing but an extremely loud blast of nothing and nostalgia baiting for the sweatiest 30 year olds you've ever met. Hedon is much more intelligent than it lets on.

EDIT: Also having music from Alexander Brandon in the game is EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION. of COURSE I am going to like a game with that music in it.
