I wasn't able to see the ending because of a bug. But I thought it was a pretty good game up to that point and watched the endings on youtube. Pick it up for 85% off and it's worth it.
Just go into it knowing a few things: This game is a bit of a fancy looking mess. But overall worth it for the money and you likely won't have the bugs I had.
'll be honest, I haven't played much of this game. The reason is because I couldn't help but notice a glaring audio issue upon picking up and firing the first weapon you get. The gist is that there's about 250ms of delay - when you fire the gun you can actually see the muzzle flash completely dissipate before hearing the gunshot. In real-time it can be subtle but it's enough of a discrepancy to be noticeable and give the gun a sluggish, strange feeling. Many people have told me they never noticed it originally but after watching my video they see/hear it now:

Personally I can't really move past this; my brain won't let me. I don't know if this extends to other audio in the game (I have a feeling it might) but this was enough of an oversight I couldn't really bring myself to enjoy the rest of the game; it broke the immersion that much (for me). By looking at other reviews I have a feeling this isn't something most people notice or are sensitive to so maybe it's worth trying the game regardless. I just can't believe they released the game in this state and never fixed it.
I'd see myself enjoying this game a lot if it weren't for the numerous technical issues. It wasn't so bad at first but now I'm annoyed. During the 15 hours I played this game I've met with constant crashes to desktop, freezing and sometimes the controls for interacting with the environment would just not work until I restarted the game. I'd give this game a lower score if I wouldn't have gotten it on sale.
The game itself is awesome in every aspect. I enjoyed Human Revolution and this sequel is even better. Only one thing ruins everything: this game crashes after a few minutes you run it. If it is your lucky day maybe you'll play for one houro or so. This crashes depend on your system and are very common. The issue has not been solved. Good luck
Honestly I'm not sure if this or Prey is the most impressive imsim. The world is more restricted but also more believeable. The enemies are a bit more diverse but less complex. The bosses are the same arbitrary nonsense from the first game where some mechanics don't work and others instakill them. The loot is about as pointless and carrying each gun individually to the shop (otherwise it gets turned to bullets which have way less value) is tedious.
But the secrets and exploration is a notch above I'd say especially because it's a real world.
But w/e there's only around 6 games like this in total in the world so don't think for a second you won't enjoy it.
