I thought the more pressing issue was the lack of content in the review that talks about the actual game. There's no discussion about the new powers or arena mode, he just simply states that they exist.
Kevin VanOrd gave the same score but actually substantiates his argument within the review.
Yeah, well, I just wanted to point out what I did. I'm not sure if he was just trying to avoid spoilers or what, but there's always room for improvement. You just said it was awful without really saying why.
Just finished it, and I gotta say I wish this was developed as the main game instead of Second Son. All of the side content is better. The battle Arena is fun as hell. Fetch's neon is the best power in the game. Lumens are way more fun to get than Shards.
Yeah, Fetch is much more likable. I mean, I liked Delsin, but the way he came off sometimes irritated me a bit. My main complaint with Second Son is that there wasn't a whole lot of enemy variety. Was really surprised when I found out that, for the most part, you're just fighting a lot of DUP guys. Kind of a let down after some of the cool things I fought in the first couple of infamous games. Though I didn't really like having a bunch of ugly monsters from infamous 2, unless they could pull them off better here.
I'm hoping now that Sucker Punch has a foundation to build off of with these games, they'll be able to focus more on making awesome powers and enemies and stuff if and when they make another infamous. They got the engine down (though I wouldn't mind improvements), they just need to spruce up everything else.
