Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ This clears in a weekend (1.5h main story), pick it up without derailing anything else in your backlog.
- ✓ You like squeezing every drop out of a game, there's a deep completionist path here (1.5h main vs 120h to fully clear).
- ✓ You like systems you can tinker with and optimize at your own pace.
- ✓ You want quick matches you can dip into, not a long campaign.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want a game with real longevity. This is over almost as soon as it starts (1.5h main story).
- ✗ You want a tight, authored story. This is open-ended by design, not scripted.
- ✗ You're after a story-driven single-player experience. This is built around matches, not narrative.
