I thought the second was interesting. I didn’t like it as much as the first but for what it was it was pretty good.
The way they made the open world didn’t work very well in some ways. For example to get the player into new areas they had to funnel them through specific choke points. Additionally I wasn’t a fan of forced combat.
However I thought the main missions and the graphics were high points. I enjoyed finding various collectibles/exploring and some time trials were actually a pretty good time. I hope one day they decide to revisit the series but I have a feeling it might be shelved for quite a long time.
