For lack of a better way to phrase it, this game is hot garbage. The gameplay is mediocre, and is a very small improvement over the last game. The AI of most NPCs is downright horrendous, and often completely destroys any enjoyment/ immersion that the player was experiencing. As to not spoil the story, I will just say that it is an overall downgrade from the storytelling of the previous game. How far a once great franchise has fallen.
