Apologies for my absence, I had some serious internet problems on the weekend due to heavy rains where I live. The joys of living in SA I guess.
Anyway... I don't expect Phantom Liberty to be a steaming pile, but I also did not expect the original to be.
Whatever perfect shitstorm happened can happen again and while I don't believe they purposely try to deliver a bad game, sometimes it happens.
What my real expectations are:
- A very good main quest similar to the Heist one in the original game, but a pretty bland game outside that.
- The new police will have a whole new set of issues and I expect players to complain about overzealous cops in the future.
- Vehicle combat, good or bad, will be used very little.
- The new talents will be op and I expect multiple builds which will trivialize the game.
To close, I am not saying to not buy the game, but only warning to adjust your expectations and notice we have been here before.
