Subtracting half a star just because it succumbs to the multiplayer shooter syndrome of "we're gonna add some maps and make a few tweaks and call it a new release." I'm not really sure what star rating to give something that is essentially just "more of the same" when "the same" is something I enjoy very much. One of those things that makes me regret giving out star ratings to games (something I don't do with movies on my letterboxd) as if the quality of this type of thing can be measured out numerically. The campaign is better this time 'round mainly because you only have to do a few of the "in-between" levels before getting to the boss fights, which is the only real reason to play the campaign for me, but it is still like, hours of time spent to fight 5 neat bosses. Dope credits sequence though. I ultimately am not rating it too low because this is still my favorite multiplayer shooter franchise. Literally it launched the day after the Queen died and everyone made fun of her in the lobby. If that's not evidence that this is the only good multiplayer shooter community, idk what is.
