What the fuck is this shit

It won't matter how well made your physics interaction systems are if your lead designer/director is fundamentally bad at level design, pretty much the same flaws as Boneworks but with a little more polish. Stop trying to make actual campaigns, just do a sandbox with multiplayer like Garry's Mod. Even something like Vertigo Remastered (mind you a game created by a few teenagers without Meta backing) has a better designed campaign and actually somewhat captures the wit of Portal/Half-Life more accurately than this is so desperately trying to.

The developers are totally scummy too, not only is the game more expensive than Boneworks (while looking worse and having a shorter campaign), there have been zero updates to the game since late 2021, and they promised us all these updates to the modding SDK and game fixes yadda yadda. There has been nothing but radio silence from the devs until recently and its just too little too late, if they reach base competence maybe their next game will be featureful at launch, i'm not holding out hope. Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice....

from a singleplayer standpoint not as great as boneworks (and it's shorter) but still a good sequel. got TONS of undeserved hate at launch imo but the modding scene is good and will only get better.

really really shit game compared to boneworks i will say it has better mods but thats about it

another fantastic sequel that just compliments its predecessor. my analogy is like adding parmesan cheese to pasta, thats what this game is to me
