fares better than Combat Evolved as a game itself and as a remaster in an assortment of ways. still, both games were clearly rushed in the end and this one doesn't have anything that reaches the heights of The Silent Cartographer in its mission list.

i really enjoyed the Arbiter portions of the story in terms of overall lore expansions and wuch with it being the first time i felt interested on a serious level. unfortunately, those levels were among my least favorite in the game. they frequently reminded me of the worst of CE's late portion.

still enjoying my time with these and looking forward to hopping onwards to 3.
