Imagine if Titanfall 2's, ULTRAKILL's and DOOM's wonderful movement mechanics and guns was melted into a game. But someone forgot to make a compelling story. That's Echo Point Nova.

Don't get me wrong, the game is WONDERFUL. You can get where you wanna go 5 seconds tops. Traversing the whole map (which is huge and the game lets you skip to places) takes around 5~6 minutes. If you don't wanna travel there is always a quick-travel menu too.

The guns are amazing, you got your super powerful shotties to the tickle em to death smgs, and they all feel super good too shoot. If you are getting tired of your guns you can always find new ones too. Hell, there are sidegrades aswell!

The enemies are amazing aswell. You got giant mechs which you can grapple onto to access their weakspots (god I love titanfall 2), and you got small "Surfers" which just might catch up to you and break your ankles.

But now, the unfortunate part: The Story.

No. Just no. It feels like every single story event that happens was added in the last 30 seconds before release. Don't even get me started on the dialogue. As far as I figured out, you crashed onto this planet? And now you are taking down some mercenaries? I dunno.

EDIT: After a long consideration and using my 2 braincells, I have decided that there is a teeny tiny issue that needs to be addressed, which is entirely my opinion:

WHY ARE THE BULLETS PROJECTILES?

I mean seriously, you got cool movement tech that allows you to travel at INSANE speeds and fly around in the map and have good time, but projectiles just make it WORSE! I don't want to 20 calculations at once just to land a pistol shot, I GOT SCHOOL FOR THAT! I mean I get it its cool and meshes well with the time slowdown ability but its just so unintuitive to use! At the later stages of the game, you are ACTIVELY shooting yourself in the foot if you do not use Rocket Launchers! You need to move around to dodge attacks, but moving around makes it practically impossible to shoot your target if you are not walking in a STRAIGHT LINE which, take a wild guess, makes you easier to hit. I do not like the fact that if I wanna be efficent, I gotta use rocket launchers or the pickaxe. On a side note, please add an upgraded version of the surfers that can ACTUALLY catch up?

That is it for the rant. Overall, this game is a banger for all the "Very VERY fast FPS" lovers out there. BUT FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING ADD HITSCAN!

Game good, me like.
