No really... Anyone? I want to play that cyberpunk cat game more.
Ah yes, the game from the studio that made that <em>Zelda: Majora's Mask</em> CG short. My friend went through this on PS5 and thought it was okay enough. I tried to go through it on PC, and I put more than a few hours into it, but I couldn't be bothered to finish it. The controls and collision detection wasn't great, the combat was @ss but they made you do too much of it, boss fights sucked, and overall it was just kind of uninteresting. There was nothing there to hold me. The environments looked nice though. Also the game had some horrible stuttering in DX12 so had to use DX11.
I did not realize this game wasn't available on Xbox consoles. Well they weren't missing much.
