Gears 5 is a good Gears game, but not a GREAT one, in my opinion. The semi-open-world/rpg elements added to the game felt a bit unnecessary and slow for me. The greatest moments in the game lies in the linear chaotic bloody masterpiece that Gears is well known for. Thankfully, the story is amazingly heartbreaking, the characters are still great and the action, despite its misteps, still feel top notch. One other bad thing, I experienced plenty of slowdowns and bugs in the performance. Nothing extremely gamebreaking, but painfully annoying.
