Will definitely check this one out (I think it’s coming to ps+ premium or whatever the 2nd tier is and gamepass), but I swear that article read like 2 different people wrote it between the first and second halves.
With all the emphasis they seemed to have running up to release on how they crafted the environments and moving through them I’m a little disappointed there doesn’t sound to be much in the way of exploration. But the combat system sounds unique so I’ll play it just to experience that aspect alone.
i usually play with biters off so i can’t remember - are there names for the tiers of biter evolution they could use instead? would be kind of a funny semi-troll way to name them, but i guess they might not like new players not knowing what the names represent right away
