So, a year ago I started a pretty serious fitness journey, and I hate cardio. I ended up getting a Nvidia Shield on my tv in the garage, to run my PC remote, and put my exercise bike out there with the TV. Now each day I have played a crap load of this while mindlessly biking for 1-2 hours each day. The game has become part of my fitness journey, made cardio suck less keeping myself distracted and turned gaming into a healthy habit in a way. So for many reasons this game has been a 10/10 experience for me.
I gave a potato six weapons. It died. So I gave another potato six weapons. It also died. I now understand game design.
A highly addictive game. What starts as a 30-minute session often turns into several hours of play. The balance is well designed, and there are plenty of characters to choose from. Some of them force you to rethink the usual approach to character builds, which adds welcome variety to the gameplay. Definitely worth playing.
