They took a lot of the great elements out of this like some neat gameplay mechanics, the character designs are lesser, missions have been nerfed and cutscenes have been cut or altered which includes the ending! The bugs, glitches, and pop-ins were all just relentless throughout my playthrough and truly defeated the purpose of this remake's existence.
This game is currently in the Humble Choice for February 2024, this is part of my coverage of the bundle. If you are interested in the game and it's before March 5th, 2024, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.
Updating a PS2 game for modern audiences, kind of.
Destroy All Humans 2! Reprobed is the follow-up to the Destroy All Humans Remake from Humble Choice April 2022, and it feels almost similar in quality. Take a PlayStation 2 game, update the visuals and graphics, and attempt to retain what made the original stand out such as voice acting. The experience here is good and delivers on the sequel. While it’s not a completely different experience it still delivered a game for players that wanted a second helping of this franchise.
Still, when I say modernized the game, there are limitations, the game still has the old fade out at the end of missions, some of the gameplay elements are a little static, and there’s an older feeling to the game. Now I love Playstation 2, it’s what I’m spending a lot of time playing currently, but if players don’t have a love for that era in gaming, this is going to feel quite rough. Also Destroy All Humans 2 was not as great as the original, so in that way, it’s a bit of a step down.
Pick this up if you like the original Destroy All Humans, especially the remake, and want more. I think they did a better job with the remake here, but the original sequel was a touch weaker, so it evens out. The humor also feels a little dated, not cringy necessarily, but I don’t know the last time I heard or thought about hippies from the 60s. It’s just not a reference that's common in 2024.
