Citing chapter 4. The first game had it's problems but wow. What an absolute master class in bad game design. I've had more fun during root canals. Also runs like crap on a 3080 with an i 9. What even is this?
Wow, what a load of garbage this thing is they calling a game. Bugs, crashes, lock screens, getting stuck in place while exploring forcing full restarts. Oh and be very careful looking for things you need, the stupid auto-save system will lock you out of areas without any hint and you can NEVER go back unless you restart the entire f'n chapter. Duh.. I R a gamez deziner.
If that is not enough to ruin everything, you will soon discover this is more like a very bad movie than a game and it forces you to re-watch long boring scenes over and over without option to skip. It is very obvious the devs are trying to pitch a chance to sell the movie rights to Netflix and game design is something don't care about.
I am done with this series, company and devs. I cannot wait until I hear about their failed movie venture to expose these braindead, greedy losers who have no business in the gaming industry.
This should be a masterclass in how to take a million dollar idea and turn it into complete trash.
Looks nice. Introduces minor new gameplay mechanics and improvements to the original. Level design is meh.
Unfortunately writing contains very heavy dose of intersectional feminism that kills the story. Naturally this means historical inaccuracies.
At some point you stop caring what happens to these people. Story becomes repetitive, stretched and it introduces unnecessary tag along characters that exist solely replace established characters and fulfil esg score requirements. You start to wonder why these characters are following mc´s, normally functioning people would either run away screaming or trying to kill them for good reason.
To top this, you get to watch amicia slowly change her hair to match modern SJW style.
First seven chapters are done right, it's dark, the story keeps you interested. Everything goes downhill when they introduce that very strong and independent pirate whats her face. Amicia's character breaks real fast, she betrays the dude who saved her skin with no reason at all, Hugo gets annoying to the point being barely tolerable, the writing just sucks and the main villain is just a joke. And finally, felt a little vomit in my mouth when i saw her in the prologue. If i were to rate the first game it'd be a thums up, at least her hair was still intact
