So close to a masterpiece!
DEATHLOOP loosens up Arcane’s usual stealth-action formula by adding action elements and a recursive structure. The pop-50s artistic style, expressive voice acting, and central mystery of the anomaly provides a uniquely distinctive backdrop for the player to explore.
Two aspects really drag the down the experience: corny, Ubisoft-esque (think far cry) moment-to-moment dialogue writing, and a sudden ending where the story just stops, leaving most plot-threads unfulfilled. I really hope that this game gets a structural sequel; there’s so much potential left.
