This shit was ass lol

Unironically one of the worst stories I've ever witnessed in a video game in recent memory. It feels tonally a lot different than New Order, with this game completely relying on spectacle and shock value with no well thought out story beats to accompany it, like a bootleg Tarantino movie. So many annoying characters that really don't serve any significance to the story.

The gameplay feels really good in terms of the movement and guns but it really doesn't do anything significant to separate itself from New Order besides doing the bare minimum.

In my experience, this game was way shorter than it’s predecessor. I beat this game in 8 hours while The New Order took me about 14 hours to beat. Part of that could’ve been the fact that New Colossus felt way easier than New Order but generally there were less levels in New Colossus anyways. The levels for the length weren't anything amazing either, however the art style of some of the levels like the Manhattan level do look gorgeous.

On surface level this game seems fine but the more you even remotely think about it, the much worse this game gets.

I would give this game a much higher rating if the story wasn't so offensively bad and the game was generally longer.
