“IF YOU FAIL, YOU LOSE EVERYTHING. YOU LOSE YOUR WEAPONS, YOUR MECH, EVERYTHING.”

Usually we here at PLAY love rain. When the sky is weeping outside, we have the perfect excuse to stay inside and play Baldur’s Gate 3 all day. But Synduality’s toxic showers have us swearing off stupid skywater for good. What’s the point of a game that puts you in a massive heavily-armed mech if you’re just going to be destroyed by a light drizzle?
The mech’s name should’ve been a red flag. We’re piloting a Cradle Coffin, tempting fate. The apocalypse happened, and the planet’s surface is now more hostile to humans than a Covid strain made of wasps. There’s the aforementioned killer rain, plus deadly creatures called ‘Enders’ prowling the abandoned cities, deserts, and lakes. Oh, and the game’s a PvPvE extraction shooter, so if you meet another mech, you’d better pray they’re reaching for the wave emote and not a massive shotgun.
