I was into this when they started playing, then the vehicle part made me Nope a little, the bullshit boss at the begging of the game only beckons more of this bullshit thoughout the game and I'm full Nope now. It's like these Metroidvania devs are gaming dyslexic, they don't understand the core things that made Metroid good.
The map is TOO BIG, theres too much running around in empty spaces, people just trying to find others to shoot. It either needs more players or a smaller map. Most of the rounds I played ended up just getting shot from some random place after 15 minutes of the squad running around searching for people to kill.
The Horizon series has some of the worst AI in all racing games unfortunately, ever race is identical, even the pack configuration, and fist place is racing flawlessly and not braking properly.
Also earning rotten spins where you MIGHT win a car or you MIGHT win some small cash prize is a crappy carrot to dangle for leveling up. This has been an issue in Horizon 2-4 it's also there to encourage the gambling and P2W aspect of the microtransactions. But this is all fine and MS gets a free pass.
Overall tiny upgrades in this year's Horizon barely enough to warrant a new game, no doubt all the fun will be locked behind DLC packs like the previous game(hot wheels pack).
