A good sandbox game if you enjoy superpowers and cause havoc. Especially for the price that I paid for this ($10).
Things I liked:
- Sandbox game in Seattle
- Explore around and doing side-missions
- Travel around the map with superpowers
- Reminded me of the game Prototype
- Different types of attacks
- Can switch powers by draining their respective attribute
- Each power is somewhat unique
- Can choose to be the good or bad guy
- Interesting use of the Dualshock 4
- Holding a spray can and spraying walls – need to get used to it because I’m left-handed
- Using the pad in the middle as a touchpad to do various actions
- Able to 100% without a walkthrough guide
- Reminded me of the game Saints Row: The Third
Things I did not liked:
- Can’t use the melee attack while mid-air
- Can’t swim
- Can’t reset the camera while running around while trying to kill enemies
- Or at least have a lock on feature
- Accidentally kills civilians in the middle of battle
- Can’t skip cutscenes
- The developers said that it’s either cutscenes or a loading screen to load the map and such
- Encountered bugs in the last mission
- Went through the wall while climbing the building
- The final boss disappeared when battling
- It’s a lot easier to build up the special attack as an evil person compared to a good person
- EDIT (8/6/17):
- You can’t use the smoke special skill (Arial drop) with a low ceiling
- Checkpoints in this game on some missions are far apart
