This didn't take away from the game but as someone who has worked with AI for the past 6 years and used everything from genetic-algorithms to tons of different NN, and things as simple as intelligent state machines; I find the plot as narrated by the text-to-speech robot to be unbelievable.

Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
25 of 212 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are good but occasionally you are forced to watch a repeat cut scene which is annoying.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 212 sampled reviews raised it
The way AI adapts to your setup is brilliant and i find myself changing my tactics a lot from easy difficulty to hard.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 212 sampled reviews raised it
+The sound design is fantastic, the explosions feel very satisfying, and so does the general gunfire.
