Echo Point Nova

It’s pretty rare for me to beat an FPS game, it’s pretty rare for me to beat an open world game, so imagine my surprise when I found myself wanting to 100% Echo Point Nova, which is a FPS open world game.

With FPS and open world games I usually found myself getting bored of either the repetitive nature of the game, level design, or lack of motivation to continue with the story (story/characters are usually large motivating factors for me). Echo Point Nova doesn’t really have much story, but what it does have is a biiiiig fun factor with how it feels to zip through the world and shoot baddies with a varying set of guns, while at the same time unlocking new perks/weapons that help vary the gameplay to feel exciting and fun throughout.

It also helps that the game only took me about 8 hours to 100%, a really good length imo without overstaying its welcome. The levels are fairly different from each other which lets the zipping and zooping to feel different, though I admit when I got to the end I had a few sets of perks that made me feel like I could ignore both (but hey, since I got that far let me have that!)

Overall, it’s the same devs as Severed Steel (which I also had fun with, though I had more fun with this), so if you’re looking for a fun game that can be done in bytesized chunks I’d highly recommend it!
