Been playing a lot of Tom Calncy's The Division. So far so good. Engaging gameplay, it actually has story and the loot system seems good so far. I don't think the main story will be too long, especially as far as MMO's go but I won't be able to tell that until I finish it. |

How's the single player experience or would you only recommend it for multiplayer gamers? |

I've been playing it solo 95% of the time and the experience is fine/ If you team up with people who are lower level the enemies scale which is good in a way. There are times when you're running between missions and nothing seems to be going on but for some reason it sits well with me. I think it's because it fits the context of the game |

Glad to hear you're enjoying it. I thought it was good, not great. I enjoyed my time with it but wasn't blown away. Part of the reason why a 6.5/10 rating is not a bad thing in my opinion. |

Yesterday I might have been more generous, but now I'm thinking 6/10 at best. The fun factor with the shooting sections diminishes rapidly due to lack of variation and cumbersome controls. Take cover, shoot, take cover, shoot, dodge grenade, take cover, shoot. The review that enticed me to play it said it refuses to be easily categorized, but it's a very standard shooter, nor is it experimental like the review said, but just cribbing things from other games without expanding on them. At this point I'm approaching it like I did Spec Ops, thinking "Time to plod though this boring shooting section to get to the next part of the story." The story fizzles when you realize it's the nineteen-thousandth version of a protagonist sympathizing with the rebels to fight his superiors who are the true evil, though I like the concept of the bad guys Spoiler: click to toggle I'm intrigued enough to press on.

Finished it. 5/10. It really flounders after the airship, both the story (which is predictable and has no interesting characters) and gameplay (which gets boring). Eh, it was worth $14. I enjoyed the first half. |

So what you're saying is that it's basically what those closed minded establishment game reviewers said it was, and not a misunderstood gem? |

Or it just shows that Moo is as closed minded as those establishment reviewers and can't appreciate art when it is staring him in the face. |

In retrospect it should've been a red flag that the same reviewer hates The Talos Principle and got upset because The Last of Us became too mainstream. |

He also had I'm guessing it was because it was set in Africa. Edited by Doomguy, Mar 12 2016, 02:21 PM.

And there's me a few pages back trying to get it working. (OK not really, it was a review on Rockpapershotgun that got me hooked on FC2, which I already owned via some cheap series bundle.) I will never question the establishment again Halo 2016. |

I have played a few hours of Far Cry 3, and while I enjoyed it and didn't quit out of boredom or anything, it felt sandboxy in the way Ass Creed does, where there are simply so many things sprawled across the map that they feel insubstantial individually. It's not like The Witcher 3 where everything outside of treasure and question mark points promises something unique and entices you to seek it out. |
