Definitely an improvement over the last game but God does it still have the same repetition issue that plagues the first game. There was clearly a lot of work put into polishing and tightening the gameplay loop as I found combat and mobility to be immediately more engaging--as well as the fact that this game is not nearly as ugly as its predecessor--but by the time I was in the final stretch and I was still doing the same "power the generators" or "protect the cargo" missions that are not much more than fending off hordes of enemies for however long I was 100% checked out. Thankfully the final mission brought me back a little since it offers a genuinely interesting (and impactful) moral choice while also just being pretty fun all-together.

Again, definitely an improvement but God I wish it were tighter. Hopefully Second Son is more up my alley.
