Hyyype!
It's pretty much the E3 demo but for your homely pleasure now, and it only takes about 5 minutes and 2.4 gigs of your space-time to find out whether it's something to laugh at from a distance as you delete it or admire in you caressing paws as you heavily pet it. Expect pretty graphics andeverything some things!
As a firm believer in personal creative growth, sci-fi and free shit that allows you to test the shittiness of the shit within to find out if it's the faeclites for you before you spend precious hard-thieved currencies, this has already been tested.
How does Cage's take on the "But-Robots-are-peoples-too, dontchya-know" sci-fi genre fare in the face of everything else before it? Other than the graphics, as that's a given.
That wouldn't fly in an 80s action movie, it certainly doesn't fly in videogames anymore.
Did they opt for grabbing the nearest unsuspecting child and recording their first attempt at reading lines instead of hiring anyone trained?
Like it's not just a matter of simple visual diversity, but the specific casting look of the characters and each framed theme feels like what the stereotypical white person in a low-brow black-centric comedy would be portrayed as. But this is from an oblivious French-Caucasian. The intense desire to reassure my darker-skinned Earth-friends that we're not all this embarrassing, is overwhelming. A strange type of uncomfortable to experience. Ok, it's cringe. This is pure, unbridled cringe.
it's definitely looking Cage through and through so far, no visible growth as of yet. Scanning and reconstructing crime scenes is hacked from other better experiences, so can't even give them that. I'm starting to get the distinct impression that the concept of "Film but with choices tho!" is taking a huge priority over any attempt at improving in the writing department, to the point where even terrible modern films are somehow better than this first impression. COD campaigns get shit too, but they're still better than this. However if it makes the cash, then improvement will unfortunately not be deemed necessary.
To be fair though, the background music for the scene felt appropriately tense. But I sense deep in my heart that it is most likely ripped from a multitude of modern movies that Cage 'n chums thought were cool, aside that it may well be the choice of a separate music director anyway. And wandering around looking at random toss with nobody talking or ruining the moment can feel like a better game whilst it briefly lasts. Any and all further hot takes are welcome, oh erm, don't let my unfair overly-long rambling negativity taint ye opinions.
Seriously, don't click on the spoiler tab if you plan on trying it. Even if you don't.

Credit where it's due; to give a bad impression of games, films, sci-fi, auters, white people, males, child actors, trained SWAT and emotions in one swoop is a rare achievement indeed.
