This would be a 4 star around the full release, however, each subsequent update pushed the game in a different direction that was less interesting than the original.
Not as good as the first due to changes that do the opposite of their intention and a narrative that feels more contained then the supposed conspiracy web of the first game.
I love this game. Amazing narrative experience with a very unique gameplay idea that does not overstay its welcome while also continually introducing new ideas.
With each game in the franchise the story grew more contrived and the atmosphere was less engaging. While the characters are still good, this game felt like a slog through repeated tropes and little to no new ideas.
