This game does still stand up! I think the biggest downside is it's pacing can be a slog at times. It suffers from the same fate as the Bioshock games where important story revelations are broken up by endless FPS missions before the next big story beat. But the DIRECTION! I haven't played AW2 yet but I can't wait to see how the direction of this franchise evolves from AW to Control to AW2. So excited!
