About this game:
- Single Player / Multiplayer
- Genre: First-Person Shooter
- "Deathloop is a next-gen first person shooter from Arkane Lyon, the award-winning studio behind Dishonored. In Deathloop, two rival assassins are trapped in a mysterious timeloop on the island of Blackreef, doomed to repeat the same day for eternity. As Colt, the only chance for escape is to end the cycle by assassinating eight key targets before the day resets. Learn from each cycle - try new paths, gather intel, and find new weapons and abilities. Do whatever it takes to break the timeloop."

Wait for this game to be $20-30 in no time. Or even PS+.
Based on what I've gleaned from the reviews I've decided to wait. But it's largely in part because personally, I don't particularly care about this genre. If user reviews were a bit better, or if I liked the first person shooter genre better, I would have bought it.
Here are a few takeaways that seem to be common themes (not really pros or cons) -
• Game is initially confusing. Those who get past that eventually seemed to enjoy it a lot.
• There are a few major bugs that need to be ironed out. Many players reported having to replay major sections due to crashes or game breaking bugs. This was one the major factors why I decided to wait.
• The AI is just okay. But that's usually a problem for hard-core gamers who notice such things. Casual gamers won't care (at least I suspect I won't).
• The story is excellent. A major pro when a game engages you for the story as well, and not just gameplay.
• Some replay-ability due to multiple endings, but whether that's a pro or con depends on whether you like multiple endings. (personally, I don't like that much; give me a single neat story without ambiguity; too many games try to justify the purchase price by adding multiple endings that force players to replay, artificially increasing play time)
• The map is not very big; with 4 major sections. Personally, I don't care about 100 hour games so I'm absolutely fine a shorter cohesive experience.
• High concept game that brings something fresh to the genre.
I suspect the disconnect between professional reviewers and customer reviews is because professional reviewers put a lot more credence to artistic novelty, than the average player. It's not easy to bring something new to the genre and professional reviewers respect that. Reading the glowing professional reviews and also reading the word 'overrated' used again and again on customer reviews, I can't help but draw parallels to an art-house movie that is loved by critics but merely liked by audiences.
Of course, like I said, I didn't play the game. So it's not really an opinion in the game. Just sharing the impressions I got from the reviews.
I would trust Youtube reviewers more than the "professionals"...and from what I've seen, I'll wait til is cheaper, if I buy it at all..

You can only save after triggered events automatically, with my limited time for gaming I simply can't go back to those old school days where a save system didn't exist.
I like games like Hitman where you can save anywhere/anytime , Fallout as well plus many others like Red Dead, Grand Theft Auto etc.
Heck I even remember NFL Fever on the of Xbox you could save you game, quit and return.
DeathLoop may be a good game, But I haven't been able to get into it…….. No way does this game deserve a 10, if it does then Ghost of Tsushima deserves a 20!

No need to detract from one to highlight the other.
