The controls were chunky, beyond what you’d expect from a console-shooter, and while the Space Marines are definitely big guys, it occasionally felt like I was piloting around a chunk of metal instead. Now there are obviously some things to be said for playing first-person shooters on a keyboard instead of on a console, but I played it on the PS4 anyway. A bored-sounding voice actor can really break the immersion quite a bit, but thankfully the game relies more on guns that voice acting, making this a minor complaint at best.
