What can I say that hasn't been said?
Clunky, poorly written motivations and themes, they make you hate characters they introduce then force you to play as them, pathetic appeals to seem woke, it has it all! The story seems very much like a teen Netflix drama and not the bleak existence that reminded me of post-apocalyptic landscapes like in Cormac McCarthy's The Road.
I really wanted to like this game, I hate when fans review bomb something and I DESPISE when people attack the character of the creators, but this is a big disappointment.
Just play the first and pretend this one doesn't exist.
