If this game was free, it would still be overpriced. I have played this game for 16 hours. This means I've gone through the effort to thoroughly interact with everything the game has to offer to the best of my ability (I refuse to go back to find the missing coin collectibles), and I can whole-heartedly say I would not recommend this game to anyone. For as much as the trailer and the promotional images manage to portray the game as a grand, action-packed cinematic story, there is very little of that present in the final game. The dialogue is poorly-written and filled with more bloat than substance. The lack of any animation (facial or otherwise) or voicing during cutscenes often makes them play out stiff, awkward and emotionless.

About This Game

Step into the dying metropolis of Maratha as the feared mercenary ‘Chief', and join a gang of outlaws in the war against billionaire industrialist Dr. Sarkar and his violent attempts to rebuild the nation's greatest city in his own image.

This is a dark, grounded, character-driven crime drama, exploring the dreams, chaos, and mental turmoil of two broken men with clashing ideologies, brought up on opposite sides of the great bridge. It's the story of what it means for them to find the human inside them once again, and as painful as it may be, rediscover who they once were.

In this epic four-hour-long campaign combining intense first-person shooter gameplay with deeply emotional storytelling, you explore, shoot, drive, and wreck your way through the slow-paced, dialogue-driven story delivered through the 47,000-word-long screenplay penned by writer-director Adi Chandra.

I like the cinematics that the game displays. It could definitely be more enhanced with some voice over work. In the end I didnt manage to get past the first cabin area. Mainly due to bein sick IRL. Not bad for the price. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/Uxogmq1s7pc
