still the best worst 9/10 i've ever played

i've seen this game described as "a spin-off disguised as a main series entry", and...honestly, yeah. it's INCREDIBLY fun and certainly hits a high 9 (better than GV1 i think), and the character interactions are great...but it does nothing with 2's dangling plot threads. at all.

if you don't care about the story though? this or iX1 is probably gonna be your favorite because the gameplay is top-notch. there's also plenty of postgame content to go through, and lots of replayability thanks to the wide variety of image pulses you can obtain

overall i'm hard-pressed to call myself fully disappointed with this game. it's a misstep sure, but not one as severe as iX2 (which, granted, i still gave a solid 8/10). my only hope is that DLC or gunvolt 4 will wrap all of 2's plot threads together in a tidy bow, but i'm still willing to trust what inti's cooking for now.
