MJ’s gun feels stronger than both spider men.

yo these people straight up did not have a good time

I really enjoyed this one. The story is super interesting, most characters are multi-layered and more complex than they initially seem, and how this game handles skills and thoughts is genius. As most reviews for this game have said, it's really great that failing a skill check does not necessarily mean you're now going through a worse version of the game (in some cases it's even a more fun route). The politics and wordbuilding are also super deep and will really please those who enjoy those topics in their media. I personally found myself more engrossed by the game's study of the main character, who was as awful and destructive as he was likeable and relatable. I also found it incredible how the writers have managed to give him his own personality while also allowing a huge amount of his character to be determined by the player. Normally games tend to present one of these two archetypes for their main character, but this mixture of both helps a lot in giving the player a much deeper connection with the character while also allowing the character to serve the main themes of the story.
On that note, the amount of choices they give you for customizing him are insane, and they really don't feel overwhelming despite there being multiple methods to change your character. Once again, this contributes heavily into making the player fit into the role-playing aspect of this game more, as their choices contribute to the type of cop they want to be.

My only main complaint is that there is one point with a certain authority check that had me stuck for a while. After looking at a walkthrough, it turned out that after a certain number of tries a new option opened up that would allow me to pass even if I failed the check. While I partially blame myself for not noticing this new option, I think this moment kind of goes against the rest of the game's philosophy, where even if you fail there's some other lead you can find that will result in progress. I also found myself rushing through some of the conversations, but I don't blame that on the game and instead attribute it to my personal preferences.
