Re: Official GR:AW 2 Impressions Thread
I just finished the game. I was playing on Elevated Risk since the reviews said it was short, I figured by playing on Hard the first time it would make me take my time and the game would last longer. But wow, the game still felt extremely short. I must have finished it in 6 - 8 hours, and I thought that I WAS taking my time with it.
The game was still alot of fun. Man, those particle/smoke/lighting effects are simply breathtaking at times.
I only have a few complaints with the single-player:
- Too short (duh)
- When your character reloads (especially when he is in cover) he does not really remove a clip, nor place a new one in. This is a small detail which also annoyed me from the first game. Granted, it has ZERO effect on gameplay, but when a game looks this good, it is those small details that stand out like a sore thumb. Looks absolutely ridiculous to see your character "pretend' to reload, especially when your character model is so large an detailed and you have a plain view of it happening. Yes, I am anal.
- It was mentioned earlier, and again, it bothered me with the first GRAW, but your character tends to "float" too much. When walking I get the impression that he is just sort of skating around, not really taking actual steps. That irks me for some reason.
I can't wait to really sink my teeth into co-op now! I had a blast with GRAW co-op.
