Underwhelming, But Not Terrible
Sometimes I look at F.E.A.R. 2 and I get reminded of an idea I had when I was younger. Instead of focusing exclusively on Alma, maybe the F.E.A.R. series could've been an anthology, each one focusing on some new paranormal phenomenon mixed with great gunplay. Instead, we got this and F.3.A.R. Mind you, F.E.A.R. 2 isn't a terrible game. Far from it. It's competent, the game feels nice to play, it's a decent length for what you pay for. But it's one of those games that feel wholly unnecessary, barely achieving a fraction of what made it's predecessor so fun and engaging. It feels more cartoony, with less environmental interactions and more jelly-like blood sprayed everywhere. The paranormal sequences are amplified ten-fold, and while some moments are genuinely unsettling compared to the first game's admittedly terrible jumpscares, it's not the majority of the experience. Not even gonna touch the story with a ten foot pole. While I appreciated the audacity they had to attempt an ending like that, it really comes off as being in poor taste while setting up the third game for failure. Some positives: there are some sequences involving a mech which are pretty fun, and they continue into the third game. The DLC bundled with this game is a kind addition. Some new weapons are incredibly fun to use, and both the school level and final boss are visually interesting. I still had fun. Don't get me wrong, I had fun. And I'd even say that you'd have fun if you gave it a shot too. Just don't go into it expecting anything like the first F.E.A.R. game. I remember preferring F.E.A.R. 2 when I was younger, if that means anything.
