Poll Who's excited for this game? (172 votes)
This comes out pretty soon. I'm still kind of waiting to see what it has to offer, more than what I've seen from videos of the beta, but I enjoyed the first Mirror's Edge enough to want to look forward to a new game. In the first, the biggest draws were the setting, the soundtrack, and the potential to get your speed up. The aspects that lacked for me personally, and mainly, was its length, and the story/characters, which I thought was adequate, but could have be a lot more engaging. I liked it well enough that over the years, I've beaten it more than once, which shouldn't seem awkward, but does, because I don't feel like it's a game necessarily worth going through again. Maybe it's not that, and it's more about putting it down after I first beat it, and picked it up again way later to beat it, then that happened a third time. It did kind of lack content. I also bought it on Steam earlier this year, but I didn't finish it there. I am hoping to enjoy what I enjoyed with the first game, and enjoy what I thought could be good with the second. What about you? Are you excited, and do you plan on getting it?
So, instead of making a new thread, I thought I'd ask, now that it's been out, what did you all think of it? I didn't pick it up... Yet? From what I saw of it when the game came out, the open world design seemed really bland. I don't like what looks like NPC's just standing there, which seems awkward, and then all they do is perhaps give you boring time trial missions. I'm not saying that's what it is, only that, that's what it looks like. I loved the music, setting, and speed you could get in the original, how does this game improve on other aspects, and maybe those same ones? Does it improve on stuff, or take a turn for the worse with them, as well as with the addition of new mechanics?
