More accurately, too bad the story continues on for several hours after the big reveal.

Yeah, this is my only real issue with the game. I remember the last couple of hours being a huge slog. But even so everything else rates so highly that it's still one of my most favourite games ever.

I mean i'm pretty sure they're just putting the entire game in patches, so :v:

I spent 2 hours on my first run of Bangkok exploring every inch of the huge hotel. This might be my favorite level so far, though I can see why doing it Suit Only would be a nightmare

Nah. And code is tiny anyhow.

Big patches are big because of art assets pretty much exclusively, and I doubt there's many skyrim assets in there that aren't being used.

That said, you're probably right that they have us re-download art assets rather than diff them since that's a ton of data and it didn't seem like they added THAT much, but its hard to speculate.

It's 100% the worst SOSA map, yeah, mainly because you have to go between the towers to get at them. most of the levels in hitman 2 are going to be nightmares to do pro SOSA runs, mostly because of how loving big they are and how far you have to go between kills. More time for you to gently caress up.

Fortunately, although I've done a couple of them, I don't find those as fun as going around disguising myself so if it seems too tedious I'm just not gonna do it. I'm glad that getting all the unlocks doesn't require 100% completion.

Bioshock annoyed me because the story is go to A...oops A is broken go to B...oops B is not gonna work, try C...oh ho, the train to C needs power from D so head through E to get there.

And i'm like let me achieve a thing for fucks sake.

There are cosmetic unlocks for getting SOSA on every mission but yeah you can get the normal level Mastery rewards maxed out without touching half the content in them

The brought over his Brawl codecs but that was probably just a byproduct of bringing over Shadow Moses, because he has no new codecs for any of the 4+Ultimate Newcomers :(

Apparently the voice actor for the Colonel in Japan died is the main reason I have heard for why we didn't get new codecs.

Bioshock 2 was significantly better than Bioshock 1 just because the combat was improved and the game didn't fall off a cliff with the last two levels.

Sure. I agree. The game being built around horde mode point defense encounters got kinda old for me tho.
