The Division 2

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!!

Just walk around a huge open world and shoot people with generic and unsatisfying gunplay. The game is also supposed to be one of these "looter shooters". A thing I find very overrated and boring in today's games, so that doesn't help this game for me either. The only games that make finding stuff actually fun are games like Fallout and Elder Scrolls. The only good thing about this game for me is the ability to skip cutscenes. I couldn't care less about the story in these modern games that try to depict an overly realistic storyline and are filled with forgettable and boring-looking characters. So at least the game lets you focus on the gameplay and forget about everything else. I just like my games with fun and unique gameplay...and badass storylines with iconic-looking characters. But I doubt you can expect that from mentally impaired developers who even seem to think that gender is simply a body type.

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).

The game is really recommendable, but only conditionally. If you're after an exciting single player game, you shouldn't access it here. What's really good: There's a ton of outfits, weapons, armor, and skins. The story is rather secondary, because in this game the fights with and against other players are the focus. At a certain point, as a solo player, you just can't keep up with the masses of opponents. If you are looking for a cool game as a couple or as a group, you should strike.

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 👍
