Production value aside Arknights Endfield makes a horrible first impression. Run from one glowing marker to the next, hold down one button to easily defeat every enemy, main character with amnesia surrounded by cute girls who love him, "anime-style" voice acting, plot an endless parade of cliches.
The opening is like 15 minutes of a ghostly voice saying "unlock your true potential", "look within yourself to discover the key", "the past holds the secret of the future" - like someone just copies and pasted vague inspirational quotes from other media.
