Gameplay

The base mechanics were improved upon significantly, really dig the dev for going even harder on the realistic gun mechanics.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
139 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Managed to fix my save, the game is great but on shaky technical grounds. it doesnt run well, and its possible for your saves to become locked but the actual game inside these problems is very fun. great gunplay, decent level design, disturbing aesthetic choices and admittedly poor texture variety.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
110 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There's also more effort put into the story and lore if you care about that sort of thing (I don't).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Would be nice if the loops were a bit longer cause otherwise the soundtrack is pretty solid.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is great, it sticks to it throughout the game too, very unique style that I haven't really seen in any other games.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The weapon roster is great and up-gradable, but again the game doesn't have "that gun" that a lot of boomer shooters have, but the quality across the board is good enough that I can forgive it.
