Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
95 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Okay as a Strike Series fan, this is waaay better than i expected, if i could give more money to the devs i would because they were COOKING here with the gameplay loop, i also love how they expand the winch mechanic from the Strike games to have more flexibility, now you can winch random objects, enemies, MISSILES, and that is really fun.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Not technically impressive, but mission-critical information is always easy to parse during combat, which matters more.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I also like that the story is basically black and white in its moral compass.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.

The performance is also way better than the first demo i've played, less stuttering, more fps, less bugs, i don't doubt it will run smoothly as well on mobile devices and steam deck.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The characters are all pretty funny to listen to and I like the voice acting as well.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
25 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The somewhat minimalist graphics and art style are a refreshing take on the genre.
