Just so disappointing. I was SO excited for this title, but while graphically beautiful, the story is a muddled mess and the controls are wretched. I died repeatedly, not because I screwed up, but because the controls reacted so badly (or were so ridiculous) that escape was just not possible. Additionally, so many things about the situation are unexplained, or explained so poorly that they may as well not have been explained. Why is there a timer? How do I add time to it or cancel it? What the hell do I do when it autosaves with 10 seconds on the timer?

Add checkpoints that are just too far apart to be fair and we have... well, whatever this is.

At this point, I'm so burnt out that I don't even care anymore. I'm so sad about how far this is from what I was expecting, and I just cannot recommend it.

It is a unique genre I've never experienced before, Stealth & Hack, that the developers did quite well. The stealth mechanic worked good, avoiding the various sensors on dangerous infected robots roaming the hallways trying to get you. While hidden you had to scan the area for possible things to hack. There were a lot of abilities available to choose from when hacking but only so many could be equipped, giving you the option to play around and find what was best for any given situation. A couple of minor bugs caused me to restart the game, but they were few and far between. I recommend checking out this game if you are into the stealth genre!

Update: Okay, fair is fair, they fixed the mouse problem with a second patch, so I cannot leave this as a negative review. Don't want to delete it either, the only other choice is to change it to a positive for now :) Let's hope that it will be justified after I've actually played the game enough. Though the ability to rebind the key for scan mode would still be much appreciated, or am I missing something?
Original:
Currently unplayable. Mouse controls are completely broken, the faster you move your mouse, the slower is camera movement. So you can slowly look around, but if you try to swiftly turn, your view will barely move, no matter how far you push the mouse.
Also, the keyboard key for the very first action they teach you to use seems to be missing from control bindings and you are stuck with a pretty nonsensical choice for it.
