This is honestly a bad game. The writing is pretty bad and the gameplay is awful. Go here, press this button, unskippable cutscene with lazy dialogue, repeat. No freedom and no fun. Just a sluggish and frustrating experience.
great story/co-op game with a CRAZY twist at the end you have to play this game at least once in your lifetime camera angles were pure cinema 9.5/10 👮🏻⛓️💥
