It's pretty fun and controls really well. It's crazy to think that a lot of people seem to perceive a linear evolution in the medium, and sincerely think every game from this generation that goes along with the current trends is necessarily better than anything from previous generations. There's only a single game this generation I'd rank higher than Dark Souls, Bloodborne, which is basically a prettier version of the Dark Souls formula. Last gen has some of my favorite games of all time. It really bothers me that "feeling last gen" is such a terrible sin, apparently. ![]() I'll even include KH III here, it has five billion cutscenes every three steps, but if you skip them you have a very gamey experience that feels straight out of a PS2, if the PS2 could handle levels as large as those. Thank God we've been getting more of these gamey ass games, with RE2, DMC5, and now Crackdown 3. I won't disagree that it "feels like a last gen game", but to me this says more about how terrible most open world games are these days than how obsolete Crackdown 3 is. ![]() The mission design is very basic, you pretty much just go around doing what would be a side activity no one cares about in other open world games, but because the game requires so much interaction from you, it still feels compelling. Not too much talking past the introduction, not too many cutscenes, you have to actually interact with the game to do everything, it isn't extremely automated (aside from the lock-on aiming, I suppose). I never played too much of Crackdown before, so I can't really compare them, but this game really suits me well.
