The game features sustained depictions of death. The game’s environments and violence change stylistically throughout. For instance, the game starts as a nineties-styled sci-fi FPS. In this setting, the player attacks human soldiers who can be non-realistically blown into pieces with just one shot. Though blood and body parts are left on the ground, the action has little realism considering the deliberately dated style of the game. When the player moves on to an FPS set in WWII, they are faced by soldiers who simply fall ragdoll-like to the blood-splattered ground when shot. The game also features frequent use of the word ‘fuck’ and derivatives of it.
