Retro FPS aged less than gracefully
Tron 2.0 is alright, but I'd say it's aged poorly. Never played before so no nostalgia, tho I am a Tron fan, esp Legacy which I saw day 1 in IMAX 3D & LOVED. 2.0's an FPS - not an RPG, as others have said, as there's no RP, only shallow upgrade & dialog systems. The story can twist a bit but is ultimately still predictable & safe. The environments & sound have actually aged quite well due to simple, clean, futuristic aesthetic, tho it can border on feeling empty. Thorne's server in particular was a highlight, with spooky design suiting well the heart of the Corruption. The gameplay itself drags it down tho. Enemies can spot you at nearly any distance & immediately sound the alarm/attack, so stealth is only good for picking off 1 or 2 before open combat starts. Their attacks are fast - difficult/impossible to dodge, only some can be reflected, & they throw off your aim on hit. Didn't play on Hard so they don't do a ton of damage, but it makes combat irritating to constantly be taking those hits. Most weapons are also pretty unsatisfying. Got the most mileage out of Disc and LOL due to their accuracy & hi damage. Enemies aren't super spongy, so combat can be quick & exciting if you land your shots. Except bosses. Oops. Most mission objectives boil down to finding/breaking the MacGuffin of the hour, little more than glorified key/switch hunting, tho there are occasional puzzles sprinkled about. The final nail in the coffin is the WAITING. Download, Port, Defrag, Disinfect - it takes no effort, doesn't test or reward the player, doesn't even require input, & all it does for pacing is bring it to a screeching halt. 2/5 upgrade options are solely for reducing this padding which shouldn't be there to begin with, killing 2 mechanics with 1 poor decision. A simple puzzle would have fulfilled the same purpose in a more engaging way. It's just bad design. Buy on sale if you're a huge fan of Tron & old FPSs, but there are prob other titles out there more worth your time.
