Its hard to recommend given how schizophrenic and poorly balanced the game is. But im gonna recommend it anyways, this ♥♥♥♥ is pretty addictive. The story sucks, only one class is actually good (but thats half by design given that you can edit them), only one operator is actually good (its the one with the most health) and that is actually a serious problem given that you can infinitely upgrade operators with no realistic upper cap. Given how this game's major difficulty challenge is entering a room only to get gangbanged by 10 guys all equipped with just the right weapon to bypass your resistances, dealing damage becomes pretty irrelevant not the least because just about everybody seems to have a critical weakness to laser or entropy weapons, and every alteration to my operator and class that I make in mid to late game are all focused on being as idiotproof from dying to any opening barrage.
That said theres some natural RP that this game forces you into, every mission you take means gaining rep with one faction and pissing off another, so you better study the reward table of every corporation and the damage types of their weapons and if you are especially bored, their armor sets' weakness aswell, but energy weapons are a pretty universal weakness, (aswell as the quasimorph damage types in the theater you are operating in, and especially their resistances because some of them are straight invulnerable to some damage types). Like woaw I really feel like a private military contractor weighing the benefit and cons of every mission.
Quite frankly the story missions in this game are so gay that I just recommend you dont do it except for the couple of missions needed to unlock the ship upgrade.
Things I wish the game told me about. If theres a ship upgrade material you need and just cant get, the stockmarket page has a second tab that tells you where every special item is manufactured and demanded.
You should also go to the wiki and look up what compound damage types are, they deal two types of damage and therefore the damage taken is whichever your resistance is lower too, thats why entropy melts people, because its fire and cold, and armor sets tend to either have fire or cold resistance but rarely both.
