The editors didn't like
Nonlinear narrative
Bloated gameplay
Predictable gameplay
Sad but deserved ending
Listening mechanic seems finicky
Occasionally too graphically badass for the PS4
Combat feels awkward
Violence goes too far
Story and characters just don't hit

A narrative not for the weak of heart
Bloated by the sheer density of content and locations to explore
Resolution seems no higher than 1440P30 even on the PS4 Pro
Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.How we score: The Destructoid reviews guide...
