The story of this game left some to be desired. The first game had such an incredible story that set up the events of this game but ultimately overshadowed this narrative. The story is far from bad tho! I really enjoyed learning more about B.J.’s background and childhood. Each new character felt alive and the interactions between characters was just as good if not better than the first game. Gameplay was improved upon in almost every way. My favorite part of this game was the setting. Walking through the streets of American cities that I’ve really been too was surreal, and cool. My biggest complaint is the lack of a bossfight, the last fight felt like build up to a climactic final boss so the actual death of General Engel was somewhat underwhelming.
I really enjoyed this sequel and the new mechanics added to the game. Visually looks exactly the same as the first game which I think is great, continuing in the same art direction makes sense as the first game nailed it. The story was good and answered a lot of the questions I had from the first game. Definitely would say I had a lot more frustration on this game than I did for the first one, very challenging and rewarding levels.
One of my new favorite games of All Time. Storytelling, visuals, gameplay, were exceptional. I got emotional at so many points in the story and cried a few times even. I enjoyed the combat, not too simple that it becomes boring but not unnecessarily complicated either. Visually this game stunned me more than once. This is a must play for current gen gaming.
