One of the standouts of the game is the weapon and gear customization.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I've tried a different range of settings and I'm not seeing the performance problems impact me. 10900k, 3090 with medium settings along with epic textures sees 90fps plus, with some dips below that but it's smooth for me.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I would recommend this game to anyone who likes solo/coop PvE tactical shooters with a supernatural theme.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The original maps have been expanded and improved, the AI is significantly improved (makes me wonder why other games like Ground Branch, RoN struggle with their AI), New weapons, New enemies, new UI, Many quality of life improvements, New map (with doors that open RoN style (Enemy AI use them also)).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

Edit 23/01/24 Devs listen to player feedback and implement changes accordingly, which has imporved the over all game play, there is now a solo player mode if you are not part of a team, it can make things harder, but its worth it, also each level now has a difficulty setting with the lowest being Normal.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer see,s like ti works well too with no connection issues there.
