One of the reviews says this is Doom for horny people. This is incorrect. This is Marathon for horny people.

Killer FPS for all the guro-bros out there. Gunplay is insanely hefty.
Go balls deep, my dudes.

The game has a controller support and I tried to play it with controller but the gameplay been hard and the control felt clunky. The experience is much better with mouse and keyboard imo but you can still play it with a controller if you wish so.
The gameplay is insanely lot of fun. If you enjoyed classic shooters like Doom or Quake, you might fall in love with this one. The Citadel is a retro styled first person shooter where you have to defeat evil Waifus. You can easily avoid the main route and access the roof and find secrets like extra ammo. It destroys a bit of the illusion of the citadel complex but it adds a variety of tactics that are pretty fun. Gunplay is also real exciting due to the limited ammount of ammo and the spraypatterns of the weapons.
The game does automatically save and it tends to be buggy at times. That is probably the only real downside to it but it did not really impact the experience.

I really can't express how refreshing The Citadel was. Like a breathe of fresh air in the industry. Only thing I didn't like the occasionally crashes but that was more due to the engine and not the game itself.
The passion of the developer is put on full display here with clear inspiration from other first person shooters, mainly doom.
Everything from Level Design, Gunplay, enemy variety and mixups, make for a great experience.
There are a few technical issues due to engine limitations and there being too many features and buttons for a gamepad but you can work around it with bindings. Just be aware you won't have access to everything. I highly advise playing this with a Mouse and Keyboard instead of a gamepad.
At max difficulty, it almost feels like a different game. Goes from fast paced Doom with tactical elements to SWAT 4 in a good way. Highly recommend saving a max difficulty run for last.
The artstyle is definitely anime but mostly just has violence front and center. Some folks don't like the gore but it's not any worse than mortal combat or Doom Eternal.
High Recommendation from me.

I hesitated to use the flamethrower because the screams were so horrible but by the end of this game I was completely desensitized to violence.
