I'll just copy paste an entire thread I wrote about a game a while back Hot take: Ghostrunner is the greatest game of all time - Follows a traditional linear level based encounter to encounter format(like DMC for example) without frequent forced slow walking which is a rarity in modern games - Game systems are very straightforward. Combat mostly boils down to dodge, jump, slash, dash, air dash, use your power making it easy to get into whilst simultaneously having a VERY high skill ceiling. Customising your perks is pretty simple, you just place upgrade tetris blocks" into this box and the amount of upgrades you can have are limited by how much space is left to fit in new blocks. - No live service bullshit, the only DLC released is project HEL and a few skins for the sword but that's about it - Unique, satisfying combat which constantly keeps you on the edge of your seat like no other game. You die in one hit whilst having to dodge lasers and enemies everywhere in high speed action. Like DOOM eternal but you can't shoot(which makes it even more high risk and intense). - Varied and challenging enemy design - Level design is very engaging and stage gimmicks(like slow down or shuriken power ups) are implemented in fun ways which require precise timing and spice things up but aren't overdone to the point of exhaustion. - Movement is incredibly fun where you grapple, slide, wall run everywhere at high speeds. - Speaking of which, wall running exists and has no limitations. You can wall run on pretty much anything. In fact the game was BUILT around speedrunners doing crazy skips/sequence breaks with wall running. - You instantly respawn after death which keeps you constantly in the action - Killer synthwave soundtrack - Cool cyberpunk authoritarian dystopia aesthetic/setting - No cutscenes that break the flow of the game but instead exposition and dialogue happens as you explore through each level - Engaging storyline where you are thrown in the middle of a rebel coup as a cyborg who has just been woken up and gradually learn more and more about what's going on and how things became the way they are in the dystopia.

It more or less is, but it's still a blast to play.

I am not kidding, that is literally how it works. Here's a clip of me doing so. And as you can see, the tutorial didn't mention that QTE was going to happen either, so I actually failed it the first time because I was caught totally off guard.

This does look good. The quick look systems looks very practical and fun to use and the setting is interesting. Not a huge FPS fan, but I'm ready to give this a shot... get it, shot! I'll go sit in the corner...
