❤ Gameplay Versatility and Depth

Players can approach combat and missions in a variety of ways. You can focus on gunplay, wielding powerful weapons like miniguns and sniper rifles. Alternatively, you can opt for a more stealthy, melee-focused playstyle using swords and katanas that can even deflect incoming bullets. The robust character progression system enables you to heavily customize your playstyle. You can select from a wide array of cybernetic implants, PSI powers, and other upgrades. These enhancements grant you an incredible sense of power and flexibility, allowing you to become an unstoppable cyber-enhanced warrior or a stealthy, teleporting assassin. Reviewers praise how the diverse gameplay options and character builds make each playthrough feel unique, as you experiment with wildly different approaches.

❤ Complex Mechanics and Systems

Underlying the versatility is a deep, complex web of interconnected mechanics and systems. The game features an intricate hacking minigame, where you must carefully navigate a real-time text-based interface to take control of doors, turrets, and even enemy NPCs. Failure can result in the system hacking your character in return, causing debilitating effects. The RPG progression also offers a remarkable degree of depth, as you invest points into a wide array of attributes, implants, and PSI powers. These systems are not always clearly explained, leading to a steep learning curve, but dedicated players delight in mastering the game's complex mechanics and synergies. Reviewers highlight how the depth of the gameplay systems creates a sense of empowerment and agency, as your abilities expand exponentially.

❤ Emergent Gameplay and Chaos

Encounters often spiral out of control, with NPCs hacking you, summoning reinforcements, or unleashing devastating abilities. The game's unpredictability and tendency towards pandemonium are often cited as some of its most exciting and memorable moments. You can take advantage of the physics-based environment, using telekinetic powers to throw objects, create makeshift barricades, and even use severed limbs as improvised weapons. The ability to creatively interact with the world and turn the tables on enemies is a key source of the gameplay's appeal. The cooperative multiplayer mode allows for even more chaos, as you coordinate your diverse abilities and playstyles to overcome challenges. Reviewers highlight how the cooperative experience enhances the sense of power fantasy, as you become an unstoppable team of cyber-enhanced operatives.

❤ Atmosphere and Presentation

The game's dark, cyberpunk-inspired environments are praised for their detailed, surreal aesthetic, with reviewers describing a sense of unease and mystery that permeates the experience. The soundtrack and sound design play a crucial role in establishing the unsettling, atmospheric tone, with ominous musical cues and ambient soundscapes heightening the tension.
