Realised today on Xbox Gamespass...

I don't like it :? Have it on normal difficulty and I'm getting destroyed by the basic enemies, there's fuck all ammo and I loath platform jumping in an fps. Plus I'm only on the ruined city/shopping mall area and I already don't want to play it anymore.

Well pissed off :evil:

I can't imagine playing a game so dependent on rapidly adjusting your aim using a gamepad. I watched a few Youtubers play console versions when it came out and it just made the platforming look like a nightmare. And yeah, the lack of ammo in the beginning is a bit of a pain, but I suspect it's there to get you into the mindset of regularly using your chainsaw to replenish it. The gameplay really heavily leans in to resource management and they want you to get into the habit.

Yeah there doesn't seem to be any aim assist which is pretty much essential to a console shooter, keep getting blindsided by enemies. I may have to debase myself and turn it down to the lowest difficulty...the end times are truly with us :cry:
