It's a compelling setup, and one we've seen before, but I wish the gameplay was better.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
But outside of that the game looks great, at least in my nostalgia-goggles eyeballs who loves that 2004-2009 look of games, this has great dynamic lighting/shadowing, & props to good options allowing us to disable most postprocessing like chromatic aberration, vignette, film grain and more, I kind of wish bloom had a slider instead of just an on/off toggle, but better without than full bloomy.
