This game is really boring. I love classic shooters like DOOM, Rise of the Triad, and the Build engine games, but this one is just putting me to sleep entirely. The music is very sedated, and it has all the issues of games like Wolf3d with only right angles, and limited enemy variety in the first few stages. At least the few levels I played felt like worse Wolf3d as opposed to Shadowcaster or Heretic. Really generic stock fantasy music + boring goblins. Only thing that felt good was the gore. I like the idea of the weapon design involving things like a freezing chaingun, and then you can shatter frozen enemies with melee or whatever, but the enemy design isn't very engaging, and the lack of a shotgun type weapon in the starting levels, or a slow projectile, or a lightning gun, or really styles of aiming other than fast projectile/machinegun make the game lame to play.

I'm sure it might get better, maybe I could be convinced to return to it, but this was a terrible first impression and within about 30 or 40 minutes I wasn't hooked at all.
