It’s not even a fun take on the live service concept, it’s just tedious inventory management and menus, long walks where nothing happens then getting killed in like 4 seconds of finding an enemy.
I just bought the game a few days ago, there's a ton of nuance and mechanics that mean you can often hear the enemy before you see them and make contact. Gotta have the volume up. I don't usually like inventory management, but this game's inventory management feeds into the tension of the pvp encounters. I think they did a great job with the game.
I don’t see how it has anything to do with the original games. It’s like they found some IP in the basement and thought someone might like some generic slop Shooter
