The MC backstory is just the same as picking a class from any other RPG, you just get to play out a different-looking tutorial level. I had hopes there would be different missions instead of different passing comments, but nope.
The combat is pretty shitty. It’s like Metro, where half the time it’s just spray and pray with whatever gun still has ammo. There are chances to use things tactically, but they’re outweighed by the way you can just shoot and heal continuously so there doesn’t feel like there’s any point. Stealth is weird. It just doesn’t seem as good as, oh, maybe the original Deus Ex.
The worst part though is I don’t care about the missions. Sure, you can choose the order you do them, but then they’re all “fight your way to the marker down this linear series of corridors”.
