    Will I be playing it two weeks from now? Hard to say. There’s only a handful of (big) maps, and there may, in fact, be a limit to how many times I can chuckle evilly as an enemy team falls into fear and despair. (God or Evil God or whoever save us from a solved multiplayer meta.) But I’m having a damn groovy time with it right now.

    Cons:
    No dualsense support at launch?
    Lighting is too dark even for a horror game
    Field of view needs to be adjustable
    Difficulty on single player missions needs more balancing or checkpoints
    Some characters are locked behind very hard single player missions
    Minor visual bugs sometimes that can be jank

    Cons could be wiped out with one or two good patches. If that happens then the game will be amazing. This should be a popular multiplayer game for years to come.    … Full Review »
