pros:
good gameplay.
hot characters. gigachad characters too.
i have a bear on my backpack

cons:
slightly repetitive ? some bosses/mobs have same/similar abilities
performance is good but sometimes the game will stutter

store stuff? its fine because u can unlock everything for free anyways, dont care. 8.5/10 so far

fun roguelike sorta fps with good hit detection. loving it so far tbh

beat the entire game in 7 hrs for what is currently available. would say i have enjoyed my time playing it but it has a few annoying bugs and missing text, i suppose i expect this from a "early access" game.

beat game -> win screen pops up -> i click "continue playing sandbox mode" it freezes the game and you cannot play the game, forcing you to alt-f4

upgrading houses to level 2 and/or 3 and mousing over what it is crafting, closes the menu showing you what it is crafting

99% of your workers are genuinely doing nothing

attempting to make meat a source of food is 100% a waste of time and effort, there is not NEARLY enough nodes of meat before you will be starving, forcing you to spam chickens + vegetables + berries (that regen, meat regens but EXTREMELY slowly and only 1 node per area)

very few upgrade options for buildings

talent tree is very tiny and you cannot respec and/or fill the entire tree out

I enjoy this game so far ... HOWEVER

this game uses stolen artwork from World of Warcraft such as the 2-handed weapon passive "Two Handed Loremaster" which uses WoW's artwork "Ghostly Strike"

my account is worth 1000s of dollars when i paid 0$ for anything i own only because ow1 > ow2 systems.
new players have to pay insane amounts of real life currency to have the same things as me, and it's morally wrong. sounds stupid but bring back loot boxes

gameplay wise? tanks are absurdly overpowered and it makes the gameplay un-enjoyable. idk. lots to list but overall 4/10 game.

Gameplay is great but add an option to Reconnect if you disconnect.

I should not be placed on a matchmaking cool-down that I didn't leave from, the game freezes and then crashes randomly.

Done playing until this is added and/or fixed.

Remove the suicide ghosts

THEY ARE NOT FUN AT ALL

For the love of all that is holy please let us summon more than 1 person at a time dear jesus lord christ almighty

waiting for that 1 person to load in... but fails to load in... is an awful feeling because all the other signs disappear by the time it's done

overall, the map is insanely well made with lots of monsters and things to collect and hidden zones to explore.

boss wise? absolutely overengineered to the point where bosses are spam AOE attacking or have insanely long 10-15 second windows of non-stop things going on/attacks. feels like they were designing a MMORPG boss in mind for 3-10 people instead of 1 person.

Example: Grafted Scion, a "low" health point boss that has multiple 10+ attack abilities that do your 600 health point health bar 10x over.

Example 2: Commander Niall, long telegraphed motions but summons 2 Banished Knights. The fight against the boss itself isn't that difficult but dealing with 3 total enemies spam attacking you at the same time has absolutely nothing to do with difficulty. Almost every single "guide" for this boss is on how to cheese him, either using Hoarfrost Stomp or Mimic or charm item. Terrible "boss" design.

Feels absolutely nothing like Dark Souls 1-3 and more of a Dark Souls 3 on crystal meth

Gameplay: 7/10
Customization: 1/10
Sound: 8/10
Graphics: 9/10
Game Stability: 6/10
UI Functionality: 4/10

Some guns are completely awful and not even worth picking up off the ground and need to be tuned up.
Pulse Carbine, VK78 Commando, Heatwave, CQS48 Bulldog, Ravager, Hydra
All of these are lacking in power. Shotguns can't even one-shot someone at point-blank range. Ravager + Pulse Carbine does next to no damage. Hydra takes an entire magazine to kill a Wasp.

There is no player collision which leads to awful melee/CQB gameplay.

Game is riddled with overpriced microtransactions which ruin any idea of customization you may have.

Lacking in playlists.

Campaign is abysmal and littered with annoying bugs or things that don't work. Vehicles don't flip. Hijacking banshees/vehicles works 1/10 times. Damage inconsistency, sometimes same exact enemy need 1 hit to die and others it will need 2-3 to die from Melee/Headshots. Ends on a "cliffhanger" which is built up the entire campaign and then it cucks you.
