Putting the drab tone aside, at least the shooting feels great. This dour tone is more or less tolerable in the early stages of the game, but by hour 20 all I wanted was for someone to make one single joke after I killed alien number 1,159. Every moment of every mission is as silent as a crypt - unless, of course, a character is calling out their next tactical move, like shouting “reloading” for the 400th time in a mission.
