Played through backwards compatibility on Xbox One which apparently has issues with the voice commands.

Lots of cool concepts here but nothing fleshed out enough to make an impact. Nightmare boss fights. Multiple sequences where you get downed in an instant, revived, and downed again before you can move or take cover. Fighting bosses you never feel like you're doing anything to most of them until they're dead. The story and characters were the highlight but because of how absurd it gets sometimes. Only played because it's by RGG studios and don't know if I would've touched it otherwise on its own merits.

Maybe I could appreciate it more if I felt driven to replay to get different cutscenes and outcomes but, the game isn't fun enough for me to want to do that.
