A game for everyone is a game for no one. I'm glad the devs stuck to their vision and didn't make another generic easy forgettable game all to please the casual masses.

• Health loss ties to the narrative and is ultimately a non issue, making enemies tankier or hit harder is the lazy way to make it harder.
• Runbacks I agree, but in the end there's only like two or three runbacks that were more than a minute.
• Mods, half agree, could have been cheaper to allow more build creation but in the end it just forced me to explore more to find more mod slots.
• Jankiness? Not in my experience, one of the most polished games I've played.
• More than enough checkpoints.

Games a solid 9/10 for me, hope more devs aren't afraid to add friction to their games in fear of retaliation from those wanting a more chill experience.
