Just beat it. Pretty good game.
I actually enjoyed the story overall. There were a few questionable parts no doubt but I was engaged until the very end.
I can definitely understand why everyone is leaving negative reviews. Story wise, it feels like they took HBO level writing and put it into a game. Which isn't good. Both serve completely different demographics. This game is pretty much like when they make a movie based on a game, but converted back into a game. Kind of like Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game.
