The problem is, once you start playing for a while, the wonder at these visuals wears off, and you’re left with a lot of little problems that add up. Exploration involves not just climbing (which does work pretty well), but also platforming, and platforming in first person just doesn’t work well. In combat, you’ll find that your guns seem to have too little ammo to handle the massive hordes of enemies that you’ll encounter. Healing items quickly become few and far between, even on easier difficulty levels. And the voice of your commanding officer, heard regularly through a drone that follows you through the world, gets very annoying very fast. Before long, you have to stop and question why you’re still playing.
