@humanity: Don't get me wrong, Jeff's opinion on a game like this is just very useful for me since I know that if he hates it I'll probably love it and vice versa. Same for MGS.
No kidding. If he is lukewarm or dislikes a big release, I most of the time feel confident I am going to enjoy it. I feel like if a game doesn't grab him right away he just tosses it aside. Where as for me most of my favorite games take time to grab me and suck me in so I welcome a bit of delayed gratification.
Watching the quick look for the second game made me want to give the first one a chance and led me to watching this whole series. Such a cool feature and such an awesome game. Can't wait to play 2.
I kind of wanted to get this game, but I think I am fine going with a hard pass. I definitely enjoyed origins, but a more bloated version of that with even more filler and grinding sounds kind of painful.
