• Sessions: The reviewer plays the campaign first and then the endgame Expeditions, a rotating pool of about 15 missions.

• Building and creating: Praises the mod system, where mods from dismantled gear can be applied to other gear for a small crafting fee.
• Fighting: Describes constant gunfights with class powers in a third-person shooter.
