Pros
Pro Highly realistic combat mechanics
Raw data makes the combat feel very realistic and immersive using mechanics such as having to grab your pistol from your side holster and manually reloading it by actually putting in fresh ammo clips.
You also can, grab a lightsaber-like sword from your back that feels amazing to wield. Having to actually grab your weapons and consider where they are on your body makes the combat feel very realistic.
Pro Adrenaline based gameplay
Thanks to the immersive controls and fast paced action of the gameplay, the stress and flat out hectic feeling you get when playing makes for an adrenaline fuelled experience. As enemies rush at you while you duck and dodge and attack, there is a feeling of urgency that is difficult to match.
Cons
Con Some controls can be frustrating at first
Especially the reload mechanic. From the outset it would appear that you need to grab a new magazine for your gun from your left hip, then slap it into the gun in your right hand. This takes time to do and with the pacing of the game, can be hectic in the middle of a battle. Moreover this can sometimes result in swapping the gun to your non dominant hand, which can really screw up the player.
Luckily there is an easier reload option where you tap the gun to your hip/lower back. This is more of an auto reload function that is not as realistic as manual reloading, but is a lot quicker and helps in frenzied fights.
