What to study

The weapon introduces itself. In the lab fight the cannon takes the lower-right third of the visor, crackling purple, and its name, 'Wave Beam', is printed on the gun, not in a tooltip: beam identity is read off the hardware while lock-on brackets and red markers do the targeting work at centre. Around that, the standard visor furniture holds (energy '99', radar, orange map, missiles '070 / 070'), and the room's own orange hologram specimen panels glow at the edges, the frame is a clean test of telling game UI from set dressing, because both are on screen at once and only the visor layer belongs to the player. Frame at about 0:58 in the launch trailer (YouTube), pipeline candidate candidates/v0_0019.png at 57.78s.
