You can tell it has the same fun apeal as previous versions. wacky physics, grappling fun, explosions galore, etc.
The problem with this version is what everyone else has been complaining about. it's a poorly done port.
The controls that aren't mappable are just poorly thought out, the graphics feature some amazingly detailed parts and then seemingly important details are low grade textures with stretching and pixelation galore.
the most annoying part for me was how they handle LOD (level of detail), you can see trees in the distaance that looks like you're viewing them through a cheese grater.
I have a gallery of a couple screenshots here where you can see differences https://imgur.com/a/6zdLyEW

If they patch in some graphics fixes, some control mapping, and more i'll be back on board, but for now, i'm out. it's not up to par with 2 or 3.
