I guess.... more work is needed on the quests fetch quest the flying space ship is awful .... cars are ok and dialogue well its there.... map looks cool asset placement I guess but I did like part of it but the game didnt grab me sadly ...but for 89p and if it runs great for you why not... still better than cod
