Another spin on Tom Clancy's world and this time its The Division. To be honest, this one is quite surprising, I never knew a Tom Clancy game can be a looter shooter and yet it worked.

The Division's gameplay is your average looter shooter genre and the way they handle it, is really great! The gun-play feels good but not as good as Ghost Recon's gun-play. Enemies might be bullet sponges but that's just your normal enemy AI's health in any looter shooter game, Division handles it quite nicely, once you reach the endgame, enemies doesn't feel like bullet sponges anymore. The gear system and the looting system is great. The Dark Zone PVPVE is really a great concept and you just need to watch out for hackers but if your server doesn't have them, then you will have fun playing the Dark Zone.

The story is really great, It lacks in execution but the lore and the premise of the story is really fucking great, Tom Clancy may not have written it but they did capture Tom Clancy's writing with the way they build the world of the game itself. Clearly, the world building is fucking beautifully crafted and the overall story for the game is quite nice. They did try to write compelling characters but they kinda missed with that one, most of the characters are not really that memorable once you finish the game.

The graphics IS FUCKING AMAZING. It may be an 8 years old game but the graphics and the whole vibe of the game including the map is just fucking great. The snowy post-apocalyptic New York is such aesthetically pleasing! The whole aesthetic of the game itself is so cool and so beautiful.

Overall, I enjoyed and had fun while playing the Division. I got invested in the whole world building and the lore. I spent like hundreds of hours by just playing the game casually and I enjoyed every seconds of it. The Division is a good game!
