Honestly? Pretty much everything with the narrative. I feel disconnected with most parts of it. I didn't like the wingmen you get, Prez is annoying as shit and Galaxy sounds like he's trying too hard. By the time the game ended, I was praying all of Sicario was dead. Apparently that's not the case though, I think the Mercenary ending actually gives you a hint like it's a Halo legendary ending, that they're alive which sucked.
And then there's the stupid bullshit about The Deal, some unseen macguffin that's supposed to be intriguing but it appeared way too late in the game for me to care, that sprung Sicario into literal ISIS for Cascadia. Why keep it unseen? I thought I'm supposed to be Monarch; the merc with the most kill marks on the nose. Don't I have the right to know?
I do like the world they've built though, and by extension its aesthetics. But then I realized they were just ripping off Black Powder Red Earth (Sicario and Ronin being rip-offs of Cold Harbor and Ember respectively) and added planes. This is even more apparent when you heard the producer for PW wanted its setting to expand into a multi-media project with an FPS title around Ronin, which is something BPRE have tried to do (and hilariously failed.)
This game's story is so shit it just makes me want to cheer for the Feds. These are just some of my (admittedly disorganized) thoughts about it and I wish I could say more, but my mind feels like it would explode if I think about this shitty game any further. If I could sum PW up in a sentence, I think it would be "Ace Combat if it was less charming and written by an r/NCD frequenter."
