There is no meaningful sense of progression, as you cannot do even the most basic things without feeling powerless. The power-ups are nearly indistinguishable from not having one. There are annoying mechanics, like melee weapons that have durability and disappear after a certain time without any indication of how many uses are left.

It's a shame, as the art style, voice acting, and controls are not bad.

Sadly, this is a chore to play, not a joy.

HARD PASS.

I've played a lot of FPS and RPG games (my Steam library has so many that I just haven't finished).

Destiny 2 is just not fun.
- Let's throw the player out of bounds that even a triple jumping hunter can't get back into. Oh no respawns. Start over.
- Tiresome mechanics from the early 2000s
- Jumping puzzles
- Bullet sponge enemies (like Ubisoft's The Division 2)
- A story that is so truncated for us new players I had to find a YouTube video to get the entire gist.

Yes there's a lot of "git gud" people out there, but as someone who regularly carries a Super Helldive (hardest difficulty) team with zero deaths in Helldivers 2, I think I know my way around a difficult game.

Just not fun. At all.

Early Access Review
Such a fun game! Bought it about 30 minutes after trying the demo. Retro graphics, tower defense, upgrades... It's like a rogue-lite with TD elements. Great fun.

Yes, but only if they fix the disconnect bug. It's a waste of time to play a game that relies on online connectivity for progression if your progress is wiped out just because your network connection is lost for 1 second. They need to institute better network code.

Bottom line: Fun when it works. Not fun when you're played the better part of an hour and the game crashes, making you lose all your progress.

UPDATE: It's fun when you can get a game that doesn't crash, lag out, or just become a bullet hell. Not worth my time right now.

UPDATE: The Illuminate are here. No time for petty squabbles. To Calypso!

So challenging yet so rewarding. Be aggressive. Press the attack. Resist the urge to camp or cheese.

Despite some existing glitches, I find this game very enjoyable. It's a power fantasy that has a rewards satisfying gunplay as well as hacking power.

Really fun game with a rock, papers, scissors combat system. Good storytelling as well.

I absolutely hate this game. Not because it's a bad game, but because literally one enemy type (the damn cyber dolphins) can literally ruin a run by themselves.

Couldn't fracking finish the Cryptark mission because they just kept on coming.
