After 6 hours, I think I have to admit that I'm never gonna beat this, but the sheer V I B E S went a long way towards getting me to keep trying.
Y'know, the Butthole Surfers are one of my favorite bands, and I've been listening to them a lot recently. It was nice to play a game that so perfectly melded with their brand of aggressive psychedelia

Docking half a point for never actually getting to pilot the skyscraper sized mech
This was a really solid foundation and I wish Relic had gotten the opportunity to expand on it because, dude, most everything about this feels perfect. You really do be fucking up those Orks, huh?

A post-modern nightmare of repulsive and brutal hyper-masculinity, set in a world crumbling before the player's very eyes in a mess of dead pixels and digital artefacting. The final day of planet Video-Games; a foundation of bodies, bullets and blood, finally buckling under the weight of entropy. There's no resolution here, no hope, not even a clear motive at the end, just self-immolation and the unquenchable fucking death-drive.

The initial high of figuring out the combat is awesome, but it eventually felt kinda overlong and tedious when I started to realize how easy it is to just brute force your way through it using repetitive combos and mashing on the dodge/parry button. Boss fights, in particular, get real trivial when you realize you can hold a button and jiggle the stick to turn into fucking Neo
The vibes are generally cool at least. That is, when the complete afterthought of the story isn't getting in the way. Awfully voice acted, too. Why even include it?

I think Blizzard's attempt to turn Overwatch into a Serious Game for Serious Gamers has really dulled the initial appeal and cultivated a fairly shitty playerbase, but I still find myself having fun
Maybe I feel this way because I just flat out refuse to touch ranked with a 50 foot pole? No idea, and I don't care enough to check.
