FYI – this is my review of the base game without the DLC. I was not expecting much from this game when I got it first. First 3 or 4 hours I didn’t even like that much as well. Almost put it down for good. But I am delighted I kept playing for a little longer. The game is one of those hidden gems! Trust me on this, give it a few hours and struggle through a bit and you will come to really enjoy both its depth and its difficulty. It does a lot of things very right. Most big games today would struggle to make such a good and rewarding gaming experience. Don’t buy this if you’re an FPS fan … (looking at you Call of Duty scrubs). You need to work a little for this game and it gives back tenfold.
