The visuals were gorgeous, but the game itself missed the mark and repeated the same mistakes of Killzone 3. Special ops rather than actual warfare does not suit the franchise. The whole thing felt like more of a social commentary rather than a shooter anyhow.
I firmly believe that Guerrilla are good developers, but they need to outsource their writers because the stories in the past two games have fucking SUCKED. It's such a huge shame too because they had a good idea in the Helghast, but they just keep fucking it up with the most bizarrely retarded story developments. And not to mention that they seem to shift the goal post with every iteration--three sequels, over a dozen retcons. Fuck that.
After this disappointment, I want to just skip Infamous, Watch Dogs, and Sleeping Dogs so I can go straight to Last of Us (something I know I'll like). But I'll probably stick to the order I've planned out.
