Walkthrough
- 1The game follows Jacob Diaz, a former special ops soldier with a mysterious past involving an alien virus or implant, who takes a job for a billionaire tech bro in a futuristic desert city.
- 2Players are constantly funneled into story missions, with NPCs nagging them to reach destinations quickly, negating the purpose of an open world.
- 3Gameplay primarily consists of token cover-based shooting against inept enemies, with a drone superpower that only eliminates one target at a time.
- 4Other activities include tailing missions and a single safe-cracking minigame, which are presented as a respite from the poor shooting.
- 5The plot is convoluted and inconsistent, jumping between tones and themes, and features a billionaire tech bro character whose motivations and nature are unclear.
- 6A secret alien temple beneath the city serves as a late-game location, but the player's progression through it is illogical.
- 7The game ends abruptly, leaving many plot threads unresolved.
Tips
- Despite the open-world setting, focus on completing story missions as quickly as possible due to the game's design.
- The drone superpower has a cooldown and is best used to quickly eliminate a single troublesome enemy.
- Optional race challenges exist but are poorly integrated into the game world; seek them out in the menus if desired.
- Be prepared for a narrative that makes little sense and shifts tones frequently.
- The game's ending is abrupt and unsatisfying.
