Infamous: First Light
So... I said I would write a review for Infamous: First Light.
I totally did not write one. Until now.
Ahem...
I loved it SO much better than the main game. Fetch's story and emotional state was compelling and believable, enough. Personally, I thought the way they had you unlock new powers took more away from the story then add to it, but overall the entire package was very nice.
I think [I could be wrong... probably am...] in Infamous Second Son, most people once they obtained Neon powers, stayed with Neon and never looked back, I think that was because it behaved more like Cole's lightning attacks, but that's just a guess. In Infamous: Second Son, I actually preferred Smoke because of the stopping power and used video as my means of Transportation. I mention concrete only to say I completely ignored it other than to obtain the platinum trophy. Neon was my attack when I couldn't really find other options.
However, after playing First Light I could see why people choose Neon in Second Son. Everything about Fetch's skill set was awesome. The progression of abilities was interesting but once upgrades and used, the main ones were a sight to behold, especially in the arena. The upgrade options and Fetch's personality were, I felt, matched very well.
So much so that after playing First Light, I wished that it were Second Son. Which begs the question of why was the initial offering not better than this?
I mean it really didn't take all that long before they announced First Light. Maybe it did. I don't know. I'm sure it can be googled. But for an offering half the size of the main game, at less than half of the price, it's kinda sad that in my eyes, it put the main title to shame.
Things that make you go hmmmm...
Anywho, Kingdom Hearts 2 HD collection! Kingdom Hearts is awesome. More later. Maybe.
