An okay game that sadly falls short of being great. It's cyberpunk aesthetic is pretty well realized, though if you are at all familiar with the genre you kinda know exactly what to expect in the visuals, the music and maybe even the story. There's nothing wrong with wearing your influences in your sleeve, but at the same time I feel like the game doesn't do anything in particular to stand out besides its very liberal use of the color red. Even if all these aspects aren't that remarkable, this game is one of those that lives or dies on the combat. Said combat can be loads of fun here, but I struggle to put it into words why it doesn't feel quite right. Its like it needed some extra months in development to have its proverbial screws tightened up. Guns do have a nice kick to them, the sound design is punchy and the resulting explosions of blood and funny ragdolls flying away when you shotgun a poor bastard point blank or vaporize someone into a skeleton with electric guns are very fun to watch if you can spot them in the chaos and really sell their lethality. Melee is not quite as satisfying, none of the weapons have enough impact and the range feels shorter than it should be. However I am weak to ragdolls, and seeing the bottom half of a goon fly away when I bisect him with a katana folded a billion times never stopped being funny so it gets pity points. To add flavor to the combat, you get a series of skill trees full of abilities and passives and enough skill points at a quick enough pace to be able to try out a lot of things. You can even refund any skill acquired and get all of the points back to respec into whatever else you want at any time which is very welcome. These skills didn't all feel very useful, and I felt obligated to spend into the tree that gave me more health and energy to use on abilities and the one that improved my dash. This game feels built with you dashing like a lunatic in mind, so handicapping yourself by not investing into it probably makes several sections a lot harder.
