First let's start with the fact that they lied about the Recommended Specs on the game's Steam Store page.
The real Recommended Specs, you know, for getting a consistent 60+ fps in the game, which I do believe is what the Recommended bit is supposed to be for, was listed in a Steam Library Announcement AFTER the game released. A few days after, actually.

The real Recommended specs for 60+ fps performance, as listed in the Steam Library Announcement, are:
For 60 fps performance:
OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
CPU: Intel Core i5-12400F
RAM: 16GB RAM
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 3060 or AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT
DirectX: Version 11
Available Storage Space: 55GB SSD

Next we have the servers. Every time I try to join one of the game's North America servers they show up as offline. Sometimes it will let me join anyway, which is odd, but the really weird thing is that the servers in Asia show up as online all the time. Can't say I'm interested in trying to join an Asian server when I'm in the USA.

Finally, for now at least, we have the autorun exe files added by the game. The one called 0aa63837-119d-4b3a-8ac5-9a0225c35a7b.exe is a uuid thing so that Might be okay. Hard to tell.
The other one I have no idea. It would be nice if the devs told us what they did.

The game's devs are from China. Most of us aren't going to trust random software, that's made to automatically run when we boot up our PC each day, that came with a game or any other kind of software.

I may continue to use the game, if I can ever get it to load in without it being a hassle, but it really seems like it's not worth it.

It's not a bad game really. Certainly takes some getting used to.

Your units can't move past each other. Some of these little buggers can float. You're telling me they can't go just a little bit higher or just squeeze past?

Paradox has added a glitchy launcher that usually does not work. There are so many dlc that buying them all would cost more than the game did new. There are bugs that haven't been fixed since before Paradox bought out the game. If they don't support the game, why should you pay them?

Hundreds to thousands of hours of grinding to get all the stuff you want, or just pay real money to get it right away.
The grind for this game has always been bad, but it's only gotten worse over the years.
There are bugs that existed when the game first released that are still unfixed.
Duviri was quite possibly the most bug-filled update I have ever seen for this game. They even gave you the option to leave the missions early and keep most of your stuff because it bugs out so much.
They ban people from chat for typing the word "Trap". One of the warframes is literally made to use sci-fi traps and many of the maps/tilesets have traps, so this is ridiculous.
They remove platinum, the premium currency, from players if they receive "Fake Platinum" that a different player hacked in. There is no way for normal players to tell the difference between the real and the fake Platinum, yet the devs will gladly knock your balance down to negative numbers if you get any during trades. Good luck getting them to at least put your balance back at 0.

DE is owned by Tencent aka China now. Stay away.

Last we have the new EULA. Do not spend money on this game. Their new EULA, that you have to agree to if you want to use the game, essentially forbids you from suing them at all and forces you into "Binding Arbitration". DE is owned by Tencent now.

Game gets to the second dev screen and then immediately crashes to desktop. Can't even reach the main menu.
I can't very well give it a good review if it doesn't work. I tried the suggested fixes in their discord and so far have had no luck.
Maybe someday the game will work properly.

Cool game. Nice maps. Good weapons. Fun sci-fi shooter. Even the hub area is cool looking, though it's a shame it won't be finished now.

Run by the only dev team I've ever seen that returns your loot when you die to a confirmed cheater.

How this game has Very Positive reviews I will never know. I was a Killer main (Yeah yeah go cry somewhere else) that stopped using the game around a year ago. I saw the new Killer, Dredge on a twitch stream recently and it seemed interesting, so I came back to try it out.

The game has Not improved.
Playing Killer is still a miserable experience. If I do catch a survivor they get rescued within 30 seconds of me leaving them on the hook. That is, assuming I can even get them to a hook without someone body blocking while another guy sabotages the nearest hooks. Survive With Friends should never have been added. I understand how it adds to the fun for the Survivor, but when they're all in comms telling eachother where they're going, where you are, what perks you have, what you're doing, where you're going etc... It's not balanced in the slightest.

I tried Survivor as well over the past few days. Can't say I'm impressed with the teammates I've been matched with, but maybe that's just the ranking I'm at. Though if it is, since my Killer is the same crappy rank, one has to wonder how I'm getting so many that seem to be very skilled at never being caught.

I would not recommend this game. I certainly wouldn't recommend paying for it or its DLC. I'm sure there are less unpleasant games out there that have devs that care more than Behavior.

TLDR: The game's balance sucks, cheating is rampant, and the devs don't give a damn. Go do something else.

Buggy broken and badly optimized. My primary complaint with this game is the AI raids against outposts. They break down your gate, kill or knock out all your people, then just either stand inside of a building for the rest of eternity or run between buildings if you have more than one.

There's also a problem that prevents you from saving and/or quitting the game. A little symbol appears in the top left corner of the screen and the game just sits there failing to save or do anything. Importing the save fixes this temporarily, until the next time you try to save the game. Then it's broke again. The devs aren't going to fix it and I haven't seen any mods that seem like they would. Maybe Kenshi 2 will be better, but I'll probably wait a while before trying it after seeing this trainwreck.

The game has potential. It's pretty, it runs decently (though it will lag horribly whenever a base renders or you go to the big city), gunplay is alright for the most part and cars work surprisingly well if you can get one.

The raiding system is crap. Currently the only way to get explosives that work on built walls/doors is to do the Killbox, which requires skills in speedy lockpicking and electrical wire cutting. Both of those have a timer. If I remember correctly the lockpicking gives you around 3 seconds to find the sweet spot and open the door before it breaks your screwdriver.
Now, I could sort of understand if it broke your improvised lockpick, especially when you're in a rush, but a screwdriver doesn't usually just snap in half when you're using it.

It makes some sense to have a timer on the electrical wire cutting part, but I've never heard of a lock needing to be picked in 3 seconds or it'll break your tool. That's just nonsense. In my personal opinion, that should be removed.
Bombs, grenades, and landmines won't do jack diddly ♥♥♥♥ for damage to a base wall. Not even a first level construct.
I have heard it was faster to just shoot the wall with bullets and whittle down the HP.

There is currently no real endgame content. Maybe there will be in the future, but given how long it took the devs to get this far and how messy the game still is, I wouldn't bet on it improving anytime soon.
