I made this to keep track of my shame.
Actually Good Star Recommendation System™
No Stars - Unethical to rate (Myself or someone I know worked on it).
1 Star - Deeply Flawed, a real mess, can't recommend outside of educational or ironic settings.
2 Stars - Flawed, genre fans might be able to overlook issues to get something interesting out of it.
3 Stars - Solid, would recommend to genre fans.
4 Stars - Good, easy recommend to genre fans, also to people getting into the genre.
5 Stars - Very Good, will recommend to anyone and everyone.

I'm not usually the "$ vs Time" guy for games. But maybe if you are interested, wait for a sale.
I will bet $1000 that some EA producer said "In our focus testing, we found players didn't understand how to play the game." Which resulted in the worst tutorial since shooters from the genres dark-age of 2007.
EA apparently spent $40mil USD on marketing for this game. They literally blew so much money on marketing, that it was too scared to risk letting the devs make something actually fun. Now all those devs have lost their jobs and the earth has been salted so thoroughly that I will never get a Doctor Strange shooter.
This is all too sad. My hearts go out to the devs who clearly wanted to make something cool, and were held back in the most blatant example of publisher meddling I've seen in the last 10 years. Because not one creative that works in this industry could possibly have wanted to let this happen.
I should finally get around to finishing Amid Evil...
