This review contains spoilers

Despite thinking that it wasn't as good as the first, I was still having fun with this game up until you revisit Cairo. At that point the game falls apart. All of the story after this point just left me feeling hollow, and not in the fun way. None of the factions felt right siding with, and the option to just kill everybody felt even worse. That feeling led to all of the endings being incredibly unsatisfying. In the end, the world felt like it was in a worse place no matter what option was chosen. That can work, but feeling like the team was pushing you towards the Helios ending because that's where JC is, made me feel gross. You can say that they weren't doing that since everyone in the other factions is telling you that that is a bad idea, but it then proceeds to make those same factions all undoubtedly even more evil. I hated it and it left a really sour taste in my mouth.
