Running and gunning won't get you very far in this game, although it does have its place, IIRC.
And, yes, it is a rather depressing game.

Yes
No. At least, not effectively.
This game is a story driven game. The mechanics work, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone based on that. It can also be very depressing at times. You might be better off with something like Uncharted or Gears of War.

I just downloaded this and tried to play it the other night, made it about an hour before I gave up. First off, it was just plain depressing. But what really annoyed me was the gameplay. Seemed like too much focus on duck&cover, sneaking around, conserving ammo. I'm more of a "run-in-guns-blazing" kind of guy. Is it possible to play that way? It didn't seem so, from what i saw.
The story is depressing, but very rich with characters. One of the few games that really had me emotionally invested at the end.

Yeah, it has a cool game world but the gameplay was pretty dull to me.

This would be an absolutely perfect selection to add to PS Plus Premium when it launches. Of course they probably won't, but the fact that the service exists is reason alone for me to wait. It will have to be coming there sooner or later.
And yeah, that is a VERY steep price for a game that anyone with PS Plus and a PS5 already owns. Even if it is a total rebuild - it's still the same game.
