Still need to knuckle down and finish Hover, but it's a good game through and through.
From tone of the game, which falls some where in-between weirdly mid 2000s and more average and modern 2017 with it's humour, character interactions and designs, and the overall gameplay.
The story is, there... Mostly cause I can hardly remember it, a much better and stronger point toward the game is-
Gameplay, both the gameplay loop and objectives, one of the few games alongside Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, that I would play just to play, movement feels strange at first, but once you get used to it, it's nice and expressive, with plenty of ways to move around such massive maps, level design seems clever and intentional due to the players ability to manoeuvre around the map and is incredibly satisfying, coupled with the fact that it has collectibles (I love collectathon games) all over the place, plenty of side objectives.
Honestly if this game had support for modding and a more alive community to mod for it, this game would probably be an easy 5/5 for me. I normally would deduct points for having a mid/bad story, but honestly, I never was forced to follow it, so really I had the freedom to just explore the world, learn the game, familiarise myself with the world and just skate around.
