quality control ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (had to come up with an antonym for masterpiece) got softlocked in the DLC and outside of cash literally freezing and being unable to shoot I'm pretty sure he causes a memory leak. I didn't even bother giving the narrative a try because they've proven they can't write.

When Rafa gets asked what he worships he says "Women, I'm an ally" in the most sissy way possible. I'm never turning on dialogue or subtitles again and need I remind you this guy was an soldier designed to be thrown away by a military megacorp so you'd think he'd say something like "Anything but Tediore". The guy who assigns the quest to avenge his brother sits on the sidelines entirely as if he doesn't have a personal stake. The length the campaign is honestly not that long I have yet to try the replayable content and will come back to edit this part. The pearl I got was lackluster at best on my best build and either it can't or just didn't roll with any licensed parts. The skins aren't ambitious and feel homogenous with every other skin taking no bounds to be creative in the slightest usually representing dull static colors or looking god awful like the sideshow. Some just look straight up copied from other cosmetics which by the way this is a paid DLC it should be introducing new stuff not reused stuff. The heads and vehicle are new so they're fine although I wish we got more bodies but one thing that needs a bit of a change is the "It's Valtin' Time" head size it's way too small. $12 USD to miss the mark is too much of an ask but on sale it's a maybe and only for the gameplay which in my opinion is the only thing sustaining this franchise.

immune phase overload because they gave up on game balance

At least PAYDAY 3 can manage to stay on one monitor.

I've never played a game without any characters before this was a first.

The best dragon ball story telling experience in any dragon ball game. This game also has a modding community if you seek to resolve personal issues. Some DLC maps have performance issues with shadows. The gameplay is simple and coming back to this game every now and then is fun.

Skills 2.0 ruined the game for me a lot of depreciated features and tone deaf choices which really hurt stealth. I don't care about loud but some of the design choices bewilder me. Firstly why did they completely shaft the community by completely ignoring feedback of bag moving skills and guard domination which would be helpful for stealth if you're not using a suppressor. They introduced an entire skill system but nested bag moving capabilities into different tier 3 skills across different pages where they don't even make sense to be in such as bag moving skills in an armor tree which by the way is pointless for stealth. They removed the majority of ECM upgrades which screams "we have a tool skill page in mind but we're not giving it". We now don't have an option on how many manual marks we get because they removed strategist. We should have the ability to pick up our tools natively like carrying 2 bags and dominating guards and marking as many guards as we want but we don't because we have developers that created the lead guard who also play stealth on normal difficulty as if they regret adding a 2 pager system for overkill. We lost drop cloth which powerful and useful for dealing with guards in front of cameras. But it's okay all of this is okay because they made sure we have PRESSURE POINTS as judo chop basic. By the way pressure points effectively did essentially nothing because they still spot your mistake and get alerted so they effectively just made a skill with no basic version but the aced now allows you to melee kill guards. Which brings me to my next point where some of the skills just need their basic and aced version switched because the generally applicable skill just ends up getting lost behind the version that has a more specific intention with an example being strong-armed basic having the basic allowing you to use throwables unmasked but the aced version being bag moving. The devs are literally trying to piss us off by designing a functionally interesting skill tree but also make us waste points on things we don't care about, don't want, don't need, and because of that it hurts the build crafting. This update would have been 1000x better if they didn't spit in the players faces and actually fixed problems like bad objective design and cop ai. These tragedies that occurred to stealth players can be easily fixed you have the code to do so any excuses are just disrespecting the intelligence of their community and should be treated as such. Another big thing about this is what the game suffers from was and still is bad mechanics so the longer they go without fixing that the longer the game stays dead which is also the reason offline mode is of lesser importance. I'm not removing this review until everything in it is fixed what a joke.

Silent saw isn't silent

Fun alone, more fun with friends. Fun when you don't know what you're doing, more fun when you do. Most people don't max out characters but I'd recommend them to try. If you're having trouble sticking to the game because it's too grindy I'd recommend checking out youtubers because just about everything has been done.

Hard learning curve but worth it.
The game itself has a bad times every now and then but it generally evens out.
Good alone, better with friends, and over all a fun experience.
You'll get angry when you lose but that's just a sign that you're normally enjoying the experience.
