Story is not stupid. It is horribly sad. It develops around the theme of neverending violence, and how it destroys us in the end. A really needed perspective, a thing, that we all need to hear in todays world.
I have to say, that one of the best things is, that this story doesnt give a **** about you. It develops in its own way. Yes, at the end you might wish you didnt play it and just stick with ending of first part, but isn't it what life really is about? Us remebering the good old days? Horrified what might future do to us? And is it really up to us to stop that wheel of violence? Or are we just trapped inside its never ending cycle?
These and other thoughts I have during gameplay. So it is thought-provoking, which is great and beyond what ou expect from game story.
One star down for unnecessary double ending.
As for the graphics design, combat modes and atmosphere, it is totally fantastic. Totaly enjoyed it.
Well, sequel is great and was worth waiting. But I guess lots of people will think twice before wanting another sequel. But isn't it another great truth? Be happy with you have?
