well...don't shove the neighbor's kid, i guess? Also, come oooon. The only chick i can hook up with is older than me, dirty and hairy in all the wrong places? I thought games were supposed to be an escape from your own life!

An ambitious and heartfelt standalone story in the same universe, this one sits with you by the end but contains pacing issues and confusing decisions. But overall worth a play, and I applaud the very unique direction the team took this time.

Nowhere near as good as the first game or Before the Storm. I like some of the things they did with this, like the focus on racism and family, but unfortunately, having the powered character not be the character you control inherently dumbs down the gameplay too much, and just isn't as interesting. I do appreciate the different endings you can get, although I don't really think any of them are super satisfying.

Not as good as the first part (to be fair it's a completely different story with different characters, just in the same universe) Dontnod once again does a good job of creating a special bond with it's main characters. There are more endings this time around, depending on your choices, and seeing little snippets of things throughout the game that relates to part 1 is nice fan service. The soundtrack is not even close to being on par with the first game. Neither are the feels..for me anyways.
