It's pretty good, kinda-sorta scratches the destiny itch for me. Insofar that there are raid/dungeon-adjacent missions in the game with 4-8 people, and that you'll (usually) want to have some kind of team cohesion in harder levels in order to succeed.
The art design and world is very immersive and fun to run around in. And the general gameplay is probably my favorite out of any 3rd person shooter. Weapons feel satisfying to use, and movement does have a nice weighty feel without feeling like you're piloting a concrete brick on a string.
The lore is, eh. kinda insane and somewhat hard to make sense of unless you kept up with the seasons prior. But the environmental storytelling is very good, especially in the quarantine zones or the dark zone.
Builds are relatively easy to make, with ways to filter the kind of stuff you want. It usually varies between the basic types of dps, support and tank. But with variants or hybrids of each type so you can be a high dps tank, or a glass cannon skill damage dps, or a crowd control support. Stuff like that, with many other sets/gear manufacturers that allow you to specialize.
Given, it can be more grindy. Specifically when it comes towards the latter half/refining stage of the game.
And from what I hear, the final grind for Prototype gear can be even more of a turbo hell. But by then, you have more hours than I do. At least you can turn your brain off and put on a podcast.
