I hate how much I love Mirrors edge because this game is a really sad ending to a series with insane potential, the first mirrors edge was revolutionary anyone that played it has nostalgia over it, this is just a pathetic attempt to cash into it.
First of all:
- No new story, basically a re-run of mirrors edge (WHY?????)
- The campaign starts off very strong and had a lot of potential, but it leads to running all over the same open map over and over doing the same tasks over and over, you'll feel like you're running the same path like a hundred times it gets very stale.
- The steam version is literally a shortcut to origin's release which deleted my save file halfway though the game and does not have double buffer save system so I had no chance of getting back in the game and no intention on restarting, and as someone that does not use origin I had no idea I should have went in my game settings on the origin launcher to enable cloud saves which might of prevented my file getting completely removed for no reason.
- People complain that the combat is atrocious but I did kinda enjoy it... for the first 10 minutes, after that it felt like fights were shoved down your throat, AI is nothing to write home about, feels like sparring with a wooden dummy.
I think a decent price point for this game would be $5.00, I wouldn't pay for any more than that after what I've played.
Shame because it could have been a game to go down as one of the best ever but ended up just being pandering and fan service, devs didn't do anything new, kind of like a battle royal game, felt like everything was there just because it was what was popular at the time and what would guarantee profits in the eyes of a business.

Thanks for saving me the money. Origin can go burn and EA too. I don't care how good the game is, I'm not touching Origin with a ten foot pole.
