I finished the story yesterday with a friend, hit level 20, picked up some decent loot and did my first Strike to try it out. I got a Line Rifle or some shit, works like the fucking orbital laser from AKIRA. Seriously had me laughing out loud with the joy of abject destruction I was wreaking on the Cabal.
VERY enjoyable, coherent, story path. They did a great job making the player feel like a serious hero. I like the new characters like Asher and Hawthorne, though I wish Asher's voice was a little less "prissy, annoying anime scientist," like the same problem from PACIFIC RIM's Brit researcher.
Does the game auto-bump player level to 20 when the story is finished?
