The Division 2

Personally I think this is a brilliant game, gameplay is a great pace, fun in a squad but also playable solo.

Improved from the 1st one which I also thought was a good game, yes you have to grind but that's what a lot of people enjoy so a definite thumbs up from me 👍

A beautiful world with millions of details that even the real world doesn't have. The combat is improved with less bullet-sponge enemies but the gameplay overall is still repetitive. The story is disappointing as it feels vague and it doesn't make the player feel somehow at least connected and intrigued. You listen to a lot of background info about what happened during the crisis, yet you have minimal character and story interaction.

After a few missions you don't feel adventurous, the only thing I felt was exhaustion from all those tiring missions that have basically the same goal but just in different locations. This was more of a completing house chores than having fun.

What Ubisoft was trying to do was to prolong the game by repeating the same missions all over again. After the completion the map is all green and the player feels the final accomplishment. That all is crushed by the new enemies that overtake the map and then you have to do it all over again. (note that those enemies are not different than the last ones, just a few of different backlog audio recordings and a new type of enemy who this time is an actual bullet sponge robot).

After playing the first game I was wary about getting this one but my worries were not needed. The game is excellent in every way, yeah there's a few bugs but not game breaking ones like in the first game.

The decision to make it in Washington D.C. was a great idea the atmosphere is like the movie I Am Legend just walking about D.C. bump g into random people or enemies. They have done a decent job of balancing the ' bullet sponge ' aspect as it doesn't take longer to kill enemies.

If you loved the first one you'll not regret purchasing this one !

The Division 1 was good, very good but I must say this is better... probably because there's sunshine and rain in this one! Seriously though it is a beautiful work of art, a real masterpiece and on top of that you get to shoot lots and lots and lots and lots of stuff!!

Filled to brim with content and satisfying gameplay, music, atmosphere. Maybe the visuals could be improved, especially on the peasant consoles but it is worth the price of admission. A very good launch, and a true sequel...
