This review will focus mostly on the single-player campaign, I have played a fair bit of multiplayer but not enough to judge it properly.
Titanfall 2 was strange to me at first, it kinda looked like a normal everyday FPS but with the ability to use a mech, not to mentioned it being published by EA. So I disregarded it for a long time. It was until on a free weekend for this game I played through it, and I am shocked how much I missed out.
Everything feels so competently made, and well developed. The movement options you have are incredible and the level design reflects it, allowing you to move smoothly and quickly through the level like its nothing. It's my favorite kind of game that ENCOURAGES speedrunning the hell out of it.
Not to mention the guns feel solid to use too, helps a lot that apparently famous animator "hyper" worked on a lot of the animations, so the guns feel nice and snappy.
Lastly, the campaign was solid. Not the greatest ever but it's still pretty good. It's main strength is the dynamic between Jack Cooper and BT, with lots of memorable dialogue between the two, especially towards BT, what a man. The campaign also has many set pieces that keep you interested just enough, like the giant ass automated factory producing houses, that's cool. Then a mission where you travel between past and present with the tap of a button, where your actions in the past appear in the present? Fucking incredible. It's all very strong and even has some memorable antagonists too.
Just to slightly touch on the multiplayer, it's also really fun. The movement works really well in its favor to create exciting fights and using your titan can feel amazing. It also has a really amazing progression system that feels better than a lot of other multiplayer shooty games.
Overall, fantastic, go buy this whenever you can, it sometimes goes on sale on steam for DIRT CHEAP.
