The visuals and stunning landscape alone were worth 5 bucks. I am really glad I bought this for 5 dollars during the Steam sale. Honestly, well worth that price, but not much more.

I'll go back after a certain number of months, and hopefully by that time there'll be a decent number.

After about 6 to 8 hours I felt I had experienced all the game had to offer. The lack of weapons and maps just means there isn't enough space for it to reach a deeply satisfying and addictive multiplayer experience. I would have loved to see more weapons that added more nuance to the core gameplay such as a shotgun that maybe sent you backwards significantly with each shot. If they had just added a bit more I might still be playing it. I’ve had a lot of fun with this title and while it’s a polished game I’d agree that there just isn’t that much content.
