Another nicely written review. I was on the fence about this game, and I still am - but at least now I have reasons to be.

'Pallet' should be 'palate' though. :p

Nice proofing! I didn't catch that when I read through the review. I don't believe Joe has editing capabilities once the review is posted as a freelance staff review, so I've made the suggested update.

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world

Hordes will overwhelm you, and you'll become Swiss cheese under the barrage of their bullets

You have a knack for giving a nice image. :D I really got a feel for this game after reading this review with the good descriptions of various scenarios. It also seemed to roll along at a fast pace which kind of reflected the gameplay, Don't know if that was intentional but it works.

One very tiny thing: With a fresh character, lacking access to better weapons and perks, you'll find yourself lying in a pool of your own blood quite often. The "quite often" seemed to take away from the impact of this sentence.
Don't panic!

Fair (tiny :p ) point, threetimes. 'You'll often find yourself lying in a pool of your own blood' might flow a little better while essentially saying the same thing.
