WE'VE WON , WE'VE LIBERATED HELLDIVERS FROM SONY . FOR SUPER EARTH .

This game is good . Above ok but not great.

If you need to know if you should buy it , maybe but close to 50% off and if you're mostly into games for world building and art . It's not worth full price , but an ok choice at a discount. This game is probably a 6.5 or 7 out of 10 . I'm gonna spoil some of the game below.

Aside from the really lived in looking world and the optional world building text the whole game just needs more and it feels like it was intended to have a lot more depth.

The platforming and combat feels great at first but you realize the game doesn't change much after you get the giant sword. The skill tree is just stat buffs and pointless moves you'll never use because the wind up and cool down are too slow , don't do enough damage ,and / or the input just isn't responsive. you have a handful of weapons to choose from but they're mostly bad. you get dual blades that don't have as many moves and don't switch modes fast enough to chain anything. your pistol does pathetic damage and there's only one pistol unlock in the game and no other unlocks for the other ranged weapons . rocket launcher and particle beam take too long to start up and are only useful in a couple segments of the game each. You basically only want the small sword and big sword. All weapons of a type play the exact same but with one having a bigger number than the last which gets negated by your start of game scaling weapon if you got the dlc. Devil may cry this is not. There's a combo counter but it's very specific as to what counts as a combo , and there's no reward for high combos anyway. You'll basically just be using your standard sword combos the whole game. Shields are a very flawed system , you're supposed to break the enemy's shield meter before you can do meaningful damage to them which is fine by itself but you can only do good shield damage with the giant sword which locks weapon choice since every boss has a shield. Game could've been helped more if you attacked faster , got more varied combat unlocks , and maybe tone down shield or give other weapons shield breaking. Other than that , healing is stupid and you can damage sponge the entire game if you really wanted in normal mode , no you can't start the game on hard on your first playthrough.

The world building is the best part about this game . The environments look detailed and lived in , oodles and oodles of flavor text , writing is charming , aside from cyberpunk there's a lot of anime influence and some SCP type stuff later down the line. The character designs and sprite work look really cool .

The actual content in the world is a little lacking . Even for an indie game there is a very small amount of side quests. There's like 1 per area in the 2 areas that can have them per story beat and the rewards are usually just keys to unlock some chests with nothing you can't buy in em or some currency and upgrade points. I have barely any reason to return to previous areas which makes things like the virus or underground civilization feel shallow and abandoned since they're not expanded on in the main story. What's actually in the quests themselves is pretty mundane after the first elevator one. It's mostly fetch quests and are either so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ easy you'd need to be mentally disabled to miss , or as ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to find as that one guy's soda that's only available in a single ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ vending machine in the entire game for some reason . I'd say the game should take around 10 hours for most people . My game time is this long because I was afk for a lot of the time and I was slow in combing through everything for collectibles.

The story is relatively simple but entertaining. I especially like the bond between ann and ayane and the family . My only gripes are I wish we got to see Ryan before we had to go find him , more interaction with amok and C , and for some of the optional world building text to be shown in story since without it a lot of the stuff at the end just comes out of nowhere. also personally , ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ the consortium . i get they're the good guys technically but I wanted to see them get their comeuppance for kidnapping ryan and being jerks when they finally meet Ann. Submitting at gunpoint feels kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥ to get the good ending . Also where the ♥♥♥♥ is Dr.Alan ????

a few miscellaneous comments here . Plenty of great costumes but you barely get to see them since the combat suit replaces it in everywhere but the 3 towns. And the vehicles you can buy are laughable , there are only 2 more with 1 of them looking almost the same as the default and it only changes how your car looks for the few seconds it's on screen when you're about to drive and when you leave. Doesn't even change the loading screen. Game is pretty stable but I did find a glitch in the book store where it'd keep making me look at the shrine on controller until i clicked off with PC controls . I'd say grinding is complete butt since the only way to get more money is bar tending , but tbh you don't really NEED money if you got the scaling collector's edition dlc weapons. hacking gets finicky , it keeps randomly stopping for no reason sometimes. ♥♥♥♥ scanning , tbh I think the info got from it should just BE there without me having to press it every 30 seconds to find what boxes are real or props.

A must buy for anyone that's remotely a fan of 2d action platformers. It's got a little something for everyone. The game is actually pretty easy if you're a noob or bad at the game if you abuse prevasion so casuals can hop in just fine. The veterans or really skilled players can still have their fun by trying to beat the level fast or score high with no damage. The game rewards you with little vocal songs if you reach a certain point threshold and mantain it by not taking damage. The story is rather simple but enjoyable , a little anime tropey sometimes but the talking to joule mechanic adds some personality to the game and really convinces you of they bond they have. I bought this series on the 3ds and switch and I have no regrets buying it a 3rd time on steam.

please I give you a positive review , give me back my red baby boy

I'm going to be honest , I find genuine fun playing this. The core gameplay is so smooth and every weapon and equipment is fun to use. it's one of the most balanced sandboxes I've played with in a shooter.

HOWEVER , literally every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing else about this game SUUUUUUUUCKS. First off , you're not allowed to pick what modes you wanna play. Oh you wanna play capture the flag ? Screw you , enjoy having to sit through 5 matches of oddball or some ♥♥♥♥ until you get it even if you need it for a stupid weekly mission. The custom game making is pretty good ... good luck getting to play one if you don't have enough friends to make a good match . NO SERVER BROWSER ? There's also no lobbies . You can't talk or find people before or after the game. ALL OF THIS WAS IN MCC BY THE WAY.

the campaign is ... ok . it's not HORRIBLE , certainly not 60 dollars due to the sheer lack of variety in the world.

the updates are soooooooo slow. We get cert few modes and this current update was the first one with new maps , I'm sorry , I mean 2 maps.

The weekly missions are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ atrocious . You get a bunch of missions to do every week that force you into modes you might not wanna play ( I haven't been able to play btb much because the weeklys force me everywhere else ) , and some of em are annoying to do . For example , getting 10 flag carrier kills. GETTING A CTF MATCH IS COMPLETELY RANDOM , in fact I'm convinced your odds of getting a certain objective match is LOWERED if you have a mission for it since I've had consistent issues getting them. Oh what's that ? Just don't play the weekly missions ? I'd love to , too bad you miss out on the weekly reward forever . they promised no FOMO but screw that I guess since none of them have come back at all.

It's not like the stuff in the microtransaction store is any better. you still can't buy things individually , prices are jacked up by some things having dumb emblems no one cares about , and tbh some of the prices are still a big ask.

Getting cosmetics is almost as bad as how they're used . They're locked to armor cored now . If you get a color or attachment for your armor it only works for 1 specific armor for no reason. You can't equip the cat ears or something on the samurai core , only the default armor core which basically gets ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ everything . The bots can actually mix and match just fine so this restriction was put in on PURPOSE to get more money out of the playerbase. They promised they'd fix the core system to allow more mix and matching , but they also promised no FOMO so look how great that turned out.

To be honest , I still really really like this game due to the actual pvp gameplay as shown by my hours on the game . But the flaws are too damn hard to ignore even if the game is fun. If you wanna have fun I'd just play it in short bursts with friends or something until 343 steps the ♥♥♥♥ up.

PS : For the record I'm still pissed about 343 EXCLUDING ONLY STEAM FOR A PREORDER BONUS .

bought to have everything in the game , but ngl I don't like h3h3 after what they've done now a days. All the profits go to them still too so I wouldn't buy it unless you really want the gun and perk deck.

Listen up game of the year people. Doom eternal wins or we riot .

What award ? all of em . ♥♥♥♥ it doom eternal best rpg of the year too I guess.
