One of those early PS4 titles I bought but never actually played more than a few hours of, which apparently was a third of the game now that I've beaten it. They certainly don't make breezy open-world games like this anymore - for better and worse. I actually do miss when the genre was just an excuse to have a big playground to mess around in with fun movement abilities, which is easily Second Son's biggest strength. But it also has little meat to it, both in terms of content and story, and even the three different powersets you're given are all essentially reskins of one other.

I was also hit with a huge wave of anti-nostalgia when the first thing the game asks you to do is perform actions with the motion controls and touchpad of the PS4 controller. Glad PlayStation games largely moved away from that and fast, because it was never fun.

Didn't think I would rate this game this high when i first started it but damm was i proved wrong.
The powers were the best part all of them while fundamentally being the same also feel so different
At the same time it's hard to explain,especially Neon if u have enough Karma points u can basically become
The flash running around the city for a infinite time.speaking of the Karma system the good Karma route adds
To the hero style like if u have high enough good Karma people stop being scared of u,cheering you after fights or
While walking Around and ritos about bio terrorists start gathering fewer people(minor spoiler)
even as far as turning on the military for u at the end.combat is good and reggie Is one of the best Brothers in gaming.
The stroy is quite forgetful tho
