I played this for a couple of hours on PC, a few months before the dlcs were released, and it's pretty meh. I don't necessarily agree with NL's review, but they got most of the points right.
Story is definitely slow, almost non-existent, cannot say if its misogynistic, but at least it can claim to have an original story among the SAO games [since the others were described to be rewrites of the original story]. Combat is fun, but a limited enemy design/amount kinda hurts it. Coop is probably the worst aspect, you'd expect you get to explore the vast maps with friends, but really you're just locked in a boss room with them. :HAhaa:
On the bright side, character customization is pretty in-depth, while the good amount of weapon options opens up more variance in combat.
tl;dr The only looter shooter on Switch with decent combat, but everything else kinda sucks.
Almost done with my second playthrough of Fire Emblem: Three Houses (Golden Deers), hopefully I can at least finish the Blue Lions route before Astral Chain comes.
