When the trailer for chapter 2 popped up after the credits I thought "Wow, that looks awesome", but after finishing episode 46 I think the game would be better ending on episode 31. Everything in chapter 2 was filler or not that great IMO besides the Quiet mission and that's more so for the cutscenes than gameplay, since she's not good against tanks at all and they were too accurate.
Episode 46 almost makes the game feels pointless and it definitely makes things convoluted for no real reason. During the middle and end of chapter 1 I was thinking this was a great game and possibly GOTY, at least so far, but now I'd put Witcher 3 far above this due to the lame twist and making gamers replay missions to advance the story is lazy and boring IMO. If I wanted to do that I'd go back to Destiny.
It's really about 38 missions, they say 50 to make the game seem bigger, which isn't needed. It feels like they ran out of money so it has no real conclusion and lacks cutscenes that explain the story. Get rid of the duplicate missions, get rid of episode 46's twist, and end the game on Quiet's mission and this game would be way better to me, perhaps more so than Witcher. Did any of you think Chapter 2 made things too repetitive and then convoluted? Also, not getting Quiet back for the previous missions makes no sense (you're practically traveling back in time anyway) and that makes me want to replay the game less, but after the twist I didn't really want to go back and play anyway.
