Banishers: Ghosts of new Eden (3rd person) 2024

It's actually been released earlier than scheduled and is out now on PC. I am considering it as early reviews seem promising. Mortismal sounded like he really enjoyed it although said the combat was a bit janky and lacked weight - if they can patch that it could be great.
 
Have you played any more Moley? - it's getting Very Positive (90%) on Steam. I still have Baldur's Gate 3 to finish, but when I do I am thinking about this or Pacific Drive - depending on reviews
 
I started it last night, am really enjoying it, and can understand the good reviews it is receiving. The two things I can see turning some people off are (1) the combat is adequate at best and (2) it's a love story hiding behind a ghost story. Noting I'm only 4 hours in:

Pros
Strong story from the beginning.
Immediately likeable and relatable characters.
Interesting concept, well realised.
It looks good - not great but good.

Cons
This game is story first and combat second. Dark Souls it is not (I don't consider this a 'con')
Linear story so far although I understand that this opens up further in the game.
