If I have to describe this game with few words, I would probably say it is a Hack'n Slash game (like any Diablo game), but with guns.

There are just two things you do, shoot, take cover, shoot and so on. Yes, it doesn't have many variety but this isn't why this game is so good.
Because there aren't many things to think of while playing this game, this game is pretty fun and relaxing, the story is the main thing you gonna play, other game modes aren't as fun as the story because after a while, it starts to be too repetitive and you will find it boring pretty quickly.
There are some things I would improve in this game, like "be always online even if you just playing the story mode" and one thing I find it really annoying is the slow texture loading, some parts of the city textures takes really some time to load even if you have a PS4 Pro, and also some issues with imput lag, to be precise there are some occasions when the game needs more time to load or process something, and this reflects on the imput lag. You give the order to move the character wherever or to take cover, whatever you do, but the game shows that order like 2 or 3 seconds later, those problems aren't that frequent but if you find yourself in a occasion of shooting someone or anything important, this issue with problems of loading the game and imput lag, can and will be really annoying.

All in all, it is a great game, you will probably spend maybe around 80 hours or more, the game is fun and relaxing, even though the gameplay after the main story is pretty repetitive, there aren't any frame drops or bugs while playing, but it has some loading issues, but I mentioned the problem earlier in this review.

I fell in love with this game immediately. I love the idea of going zone by zone alone and just trying to survive ambushes and dealing with the snow storms. I also love the ambience and the environment. It truely makes you feel like you’re in an apocalypse. Anyways I didn’t mind the looter shooter mechanics and the repetitiveness of the game. I’ve had fun regardless killing bullet sponge enemies for hours. However 5 hours in I suddenly can’t play it anymore because the game freezes and fps drops all the time. And I have the specs recommended. I also hate that the game is live service. Which means if Ubisoft shuts down the server like they have done in the past you can’t play it at all and your progress is lost.

An amazing game to progress through for the very first time and my favorite game aesthetically, When you understand the story of the game and your purpose as a government agent, the game's enjoyability goes up by 10 fold, though the looting and gear system could be improved on, you still get the satisfaction of achieving the higher ranks of power through a skill tree and gear score, and with the DLC content (that usually runs pretty cheap with the base game) the game gets even better with the introduction of the game mode "survival" that in itself is an experience completely unique to the division, but the thing that I absolutely adore about this game mode is the feeling it presents the player, something akin to the likes of DayZ and finding other players in the constant snowstorm hailing over the dark zone. Not only that but you have a variety of other game modes to explore as endgame content as well as world tiers so you can progress even higher and conquer new challenges. One could argue there were better games under the "looter shooter" genre during the time of the division, but I believe that this game is a special case whereas it may not be "better" but it is unique. and the division as well as its sequel hold a special place for me as an avid player of games of this genre.

No other game I've ever played was simultaneously so addictive yet so bland. For everything this game does well, it does something very poorly. It has good combat, but bland firefights and enemies. It has good loot, but poor balance. It has some interesting lore, but the story and characters are just boring. If you want a game that you can mindlessly dump hundreds of hours into, go right ahead, this game is perfectly fine in that regard. If you're looking for something more, then look elsewhere.
