love this game , with a lot of loots mobs funny missions and bosses. Happy to complete it with 100% Achievments
Being a very rough diamond would be a generous compliment given to this unpolished game. Many game mechanics seem to be there only to bring irritations and not to bring a real challenge to a player or make the environment more illustrous or fun. Disappointment...
I highly recommend this game if you like looter shooters, one of my favorite franchises of all time
It was fun at the time but it's kinda meh nowadays.... especially when a looter shooter says you miss when you didn't... Also, as a famous youtuber likes to say, RANDY, and Randy is greasy.
