Also finishing the Hitman trilogy. 3 is incredibly short, there's only 4 missions... Good thing I didn't buy

Anyone else tried it?

Its a much different take on the L4D formula so don't go in expecting anything like that..
Instead of running through levels facing off against hordes of enemies they drop you into a smaller map give you a bunch of random objectives and you have to stealth your way through to accomplish them.
If you fail to use stealth you will "wake" the nests that are littered around the level which will spawn enemies until they kill you or you clear the nests in that area (you can clear the nests before they "wake" making your life super easy).

Also I've been playing Nobody Saves the World with my Son.
I wasn't sure what to expect going in, its nothing at all like Guacamelee and more a Diablo Style Dungeon crawler without loot but a cool leveling tree that unlocks a huge variety of different characters and abilities.
Its also plays great in short bursts and has mobile/touch control so it's a fun game to play if you got 15-20 minutes or so.

This game is hella confusing for no reason. Not sure how to progress sometimes and we just lost interest like after one or two missions lol. No clear progress path, no story, just objectives after objectives.

The game play just isn't our cup of tea. There's nothing to write home about regarding gameplay, story, graphics, everything basically.

The story is nothing to write home about (actually full disclosure I just skipped all the cutscenes) and the progress path is nothing like your typical game and much more akin to your typical multiplayer game where progress is tied to doing random challenges.

In terms of gameplay. You need a baseline understanding of what is happening which you I think they expect you to go through all the training missions to learn the nuances of the game before hopping in.
I didn't do any of that because I typically like to just hop in and learn and I probably would have bounced off it too but thankfully I had a freind who did and he was able to break it down and answer my gameplay related questions as we proceeded through the missions.

Once you kind of get past all that stuff though its super fun, not sure a lot of people will have the patience to do that though, I mean I typically wouldn't have.
Getting in an out of a mission well completing all of your objectives properly and not alerting any enemies or awakening any hives is super satisfying.
