Goodness gracious...
Even without the online requirements killing the game after a measly couple days, it still falls flat from seemingly not learning anything from it's predecessor. It's visually pleasing as anything should be in the current year but that's about all it has going for it. Levelling is an absolute joke, leaving you no option but to do the heisting equivalent of chores just to progress; only to find there's practically nothing to obtain. The heists are just fine, customization is almost non existent, weapon variety is extremely limited with melee weapons not returning for some reason, ui is bland and unintuitive i could go on.
The game is a decent base for something special though that will undoubtedly take a very long time. with how the recent dlc has been priced it seems they still have not learned from any of their mistakes and i would not recommend buying anything to do with this game at full price at this time.
