Looks interesting, finding it hard to judge without playing it though.

Been on the fence about picking it up. Holding off for now based on the coverage I've been hearing from Jeff Gerstmann.

Basically he says the action is alright, and the aesthetic is cool, but it never feels like the stakes really matter and the progression takes a really long time to get anywhere. As a freeze-gamer without much gaming time these days, and especially without a dedicated squad to play with, I'm not sure I can justify getting started.

I figure maybe with a season 2 or something they'll speed up a lot of the early game stuff or something, so I'm gonna keep an eye on it.

Mmm i'm on the fence but I actually trust the devs to know what "fun" is after they left DICE and made The Finals a game that felt more like Battlefield 1-3 than anything since. They seem to have some creative sauce in the team.
