How's Freedom Wars treating you? I thought about getting it, but I passed because I thought the demo played a bit clunky. Then I heard some reviews online saying that the NPC allies tend to get beat up a lot, and it reminded me of God Eater before Burst came out.
If the same thing'll happen here, then maybe they'll make an upgraded version after Rage Burst hits... is one thing I'm thinking.
Pretty much what SakuraMaxX said below. The late-game difficulty spike is dumb, so to combat it, people do missions in multi-player mode. Also, it's sometimes impossible to avoid getting one-shotted, so playing revival tag is a necessity.
I'm new to this genre, so everything is new and interesting for me. Being able to swing around like Spiderman, latching onto a giant robot and sawing off its parts, etc. More experienced players have pointed out shortages in content and enemy types, and how grinding to make a decent weapon is a pain in the ass (I agree). Personally, I think it's a good game to pick up and play when you need a quick fix for shooting and hacking. I'm unsure as to how long the online community will stay healthy.
I normally don't wait for the enhanced version of a game to come out... otherwise I'd forget and not buy it.
