Visually one of the best games of this gen, interesting characters, great story. Just an incredible presentation overall.
Like a lot of Remedy games though it is a bit of a potemkin village, the running and gunning is good enough but all the hidden collectibles and stuff isn't really worth it.
I think I would've had an even better time if I skipped all that and focused on the main story path. Doing all the "gamey" stuff and back tracking kind of breaks the immersion.
Easily an 8/10 or so for me. I should get back to it sometime to check out the second ending they added post launch.
