Mankind Divided is a downgrade from Human Revolution in terms of its characters and writing, but a noticeable upgrade in terms of gameplay, emergent gameplay, side quests, and especially level design. That latter element in particular is probably this game's biggest strength, and it stands out considering how this was one of Human Revolution's weaker aspects. The game does feel rushed near the end, but my experience with Mankind Divided is one of love. I love this game so much, and wish Square Enix didn't blunt the game's critical reception with the preorder bullshit it pulled.
