Everything you want in a modern metroidvania game.

I don't know why I keep trying this man's games. I can't stand them.
5 minutes of game play followed by 90 minutes of rambling cut scenes. Repeat.
Corny writing, juvenile characters.
Weird supernatural nonsense that never seems to be part of the marketing.

New updates are great. I might even try the online portion.

If you read my review for their original Robocop game you will see I suggested they "far cry 3: red dragon this thing" and make it more like an arcade shooter. I thought this is what they were doing with this game. Its like they tried to do that but thus far the execution stinks. Its like they tried to make a hybrid still holding onto the things that made me never go back to the original game. I mean, you don't even draw a weapon until 15 minutes of cut scenes and answering pointless questions. Total lack of self awareness.

I can't progress because of a stupid rhythm game where the controller doesn't even respond to the "beat".

How stupid.
Fix it.

Besides getting buggier with every weekly update the people who made this game want players to ruin the experience for you. Relying on other players to make your game good is stupid. They will ruin it every time.

My biggest complaint is that there is no emote to "shrug".

"The is the age of the shrug" - Reverend Mother Jessica Atreides.

In Frank Herbert's 6 books of Dune I found 102 occurrences of shrugging (Lady Jessica herself shrugged 5 times).

The 1st shrug goes to Piter DeVries: the twisted mentat.
The last shrug goes to Rebecca: a Reverend Mother from the wild.
The body that shrugs most goes to Moneo: Majordomo of the God Emperor with 9 shrugs.

Honorable mentions of shrugging not counted include:
Baron Harkonnen says if he gets questioned regarding missing Atreides he could "shrug it off".
Feyd Harkonnen does a mental shrug before sitting without invitation.
In the appendix it is mentioned that if Kynes were found by Fremen adults instead of children they might have just shrugged and killed him.
Hayt's eyebrows shrug while he is bound in shigawire.
The God Emporer states: "I cannot shrug"

Yeah I'm somewhere on some spectrum.

Wow. Talk about a game that just isn't fun to play.

resist fascism

just buy it

I appreciate what this game is trying to do, but if I'm not having fun then whats the point?
