Syn EoA had a lot going for it but it was massively fumbled right out the door.
The world is great. There is a lot going on with that and the bits of story lore you pick up on and are shown.
The VAs all did a great job. The characters and mechs look very good. The environment also looks great.
Watching the base slowly change as you progress is amazing.
The player base is so low at this point that worrying about PvP is an afterthought. Ive ran into maybe 7 or 8 players and all of them where friendly... untill i finally meet my first PvP player.... and they where just cheating. They just walked through all my gunfire to get in melee range and insta kill me with melee. Then the second time i meet a PvP player... they where also cheating. Much the same. took no damage, grenades, mines, and multiple magazines from a purple assault rifle and they just got in close range and shot once...
So to me it seems all that is left of the PvP side are just cheaters. was told to not equip very many purple or higher gear so effectively if you want to avoid PvP you will be blocked at blue gear.
The lack of a group system to join or launch onto a map with friends is a strange choice for a game that wants pple to work together. lots of co-op challenges but most of the random players you do find will say hello but go the opposite way fast.
Very little mech customization. Progress at a point is just a tedious slog with very little rewards. Heavy monetization, more then 70-80% of the battle pass is pay walled and anything that looks good for your Magus is incredibly expensive in the ingame store.
There was a announcement of a PvE only area being added but you have to slog it through most of the missions to get to it... and it seems no one is even sure it will even happen anymore.( released the day i did the review lol ) from what i understand though you need legendary sets to even get into it....
Unfortunately i must say this is a NOT recommended game.

Fun game

Good game
