Second game in the _Survivor_ trilogy and this is better then the first. More areas to explore and more tombs to die in. Lara is sill a murder hobo that kill more people that Sam Fisher. Her life would improve if she took a lesson from Tuco and shoot people instead of talking.
Visit the fictional Himalayan country of Kyrat and get your stealth kills messed up by random animals. My track record for completing Far Cry games is not the best so nice with one I managed to finish. Pagan Min was a fun villain that survived and Kyrat ended up as a drug empire.
With the walking, climbing, sliding and escape sequences this feels very walking simulator. Arena fights with bland monsters unlock the linear progression and lore drops. Combat is not fun. This game would have benefited removing the combat and focus on other things. Crouton deserved a larger role and a better game.
Crash land with two astronauts on a frozen planet and 10 min into the game you wish they died. No interesting personalities and no subtlety as they say everything out loud. So often that I wonder if this a second screen game experience. My favorite is when one of them find a map with an area marked the Source and she say 'This place, it must be the Source'. It's also reaction shot, the game so you are forced to look at the stupid face all the time. Why 'Show, don't tell' when you can tell and close-up the person telling you.
Gameplay is walking, sliding, balancing, climbing and escape sequences simulator. Linear and buggy that let you die at random.
Recommendation is 'Ignore, don't play'.
Here I write what I think about the games I have played. The score is shown as a smiley before the title of the
game.
Note about Movies:
None of the Youtube movies that i link to are made by me and i include them only to give you a chance to see what the game
looks like. Only the text and the smiley score act as my review of the game .
