Playing FBC: Firebreak felt like taking on a second job
- Playing FBC: Firebreak, the multiplayer spinoff of Control, can feel like a second job with its overwhelming horde of sticky notes and corporate satire.
- The game offers inventive ideas but struggles within a live-service framework, lacking evolution and relying on grinding.
- Set in The Oldest House, players tackle various missions dealing with Hiss enemies and office-related tasks, emphasizing team play.
- Character kits include a wrench, splash machine, and jump tool, each aiding in specific mission aspects but lacking depth.
- Despite multiple difficulty levels and job locations, mission objectives remain repetitive, impacting replay value.
- Limited enemy variety and lack of strategic depth contribute to a monotonous gameplay experience over time.
- Perks and upgrades, although quirky, are mostly standard and require tedious grinding to unlock, diminishing excitement.
- FBC: Firebreak's shallow mission design and progression system may not justify its status as a live-service game, lacking substance.
- While future updates may address existing issues and enhance gameplay, the initial experience may feel underwhelming for players.
- At launch, Firebreak: FBC offers brief fun but struggles to provide a compelling reason for extended play sessions.
