Speedcleared a jam, shot down three taser drones, ran past an armored ceiling turret and dodged every shot, grabbed the last tape I needed underneath it, and got to safety in less than 15 seconds. I then, out of instinct, holstered my glock to reload a magazine and shot myself in the leg, killing me instantly. Brilliant. Cannot recommend more.

8/10 Although I do find the stoic philosophy and subtle alt-right sentiments being drip fed to me to be quite cringe, I do find the tapes to be oddly soothing in a way. Given the setting and pacing of the game, it is quite welcoming to be told to slow down, relax, take your time, slow is smooth smooth is fast. I found myself playing those words in my head every time I faced a stressful situation in this game, and found success most of the time. Games are meant to make the players feel something, this game made me feel skillful, powerful, and level-headed. That satisfying moment when you get the spin of the cylinder just right where you miss the filled-in chamber, that feeling you get when you finally master the reload mechanic, getting a perfect hit on a turret! Other players may not feel this way and that is okay, players that want simple, fast, fun have the right to want that, but that is not here, not this game.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience! Frustrating at times, and very punishing, but nothing if not fair and consistent. Every time I died it was because I got careless or took unnecessary risks, and the game slowly trains you out of doing that. I'm also a sucker for podcast-type lore progression, and the game does a really good job of drip-feeding you the story in little bite-sized chunks as you progress through the game. Overall 9/10 one of the best games I've played.

"The um actually of gun games. Half of the reasons this game will kill you is entirely unrealistic despite it all being about realism. Maybe ill try again one day but I have too much of a life for a game to waste more than 4 hours of my time." Never mind I get it now. Good messages, interesting lore subtexts and makes you actually think unlike a lot of games. At the 5 level and I am afraid to finish it because I am enjoying it so much.

I have been playing this game for as of currently- 466~ Hours. Over half of that time by now, has been dedicated to playing the Bozo's Torture Chamber Mod. Being the #1 player essentially in the world. I can't recommend it enough. The vanilla game by this point is child's play, but let me tell you. Getting to this point, was no easy task. This game will chew you up and spit you out. Not that that's a bad thing, but training your skills on firearm techniques; whether that be aiming the guns properly, reloading properly, dealing with gun jams effectively, holstering safely, and more are all needed to survive the THREAT. They are all necessary to learn and remember, for all guns. Most of the time, if you're taking it carefully, these jams or reloading times will not be an issue. But in the heat of the moment when your @ss is inches from being zapped, and your head is buzzed with lead, all the knowledge you gain will lend you to deal with even the most difficult situation. Keeping your cool and not getting cocky are also important aspects. You may mock the Threat for having turrets that can die in one well placed shot, drones that spin around aimlessly. But all it takes is one slip and you WILL fall because you are just as fragile (If not more). You are not made of hardened steel and conformed plastic, you're a combination of meat with sentience. In this case, a mental combination of meat with sentience. You will fail. Over and over and over and over and over and over, you will be beating your head against a metaphorical wall for hours. But those moments when you're landing your shots, dealing with jams or dodging bullets, and destroying the killdrones meant to stop your awakening. Those are the best moments. Those are what you've been trained for. Some Receivers will not understand, will not see the purpose. Cannot and will refuse to see how things really are, that you are powerful. That you can achieve greatness through pressing on. Through pushing, through methodical awareness of mental health. Of the firearms you use. That no matter how many times you get shot, or zapped, or fall off a bridge, or get impaled.. That you are so much more than you could ever realize through this. The journey will be rough, it will be full of strain and hardship. But gradually and gently, you will find the keys to unlocking your true self. You, are now a True Receiver.
