If there was ever a game that deserved a second chance at success, this was the one and I am so glad to see that it is doing well again and getting the praise it deserves. It improves on the original while not removing what worked with the first one. Shooting and combat feels incredibly smooth and fun, movement is superb and is as fun to master as it is to just jump in casually and feel like a badass,

The first game faced critisism for the lackluster story mode (if it even qualifies to be called that), so Respawn could have just made a campaign here to say that they have one this time around. Luckily, it is not meerly tacked on but a genuinly good, well made experience that adds to the complete package. It is not particularly long, but what is there is very fun and worth playing

The multiplayer is the main attraction and because of the increased player base now is the best time to jump in and play, it is one of the best multiplayer shooters ever in my opinion and a must play if you are a fan of the genre. One note however is that you can expect to come across some rough matches against people who never stopped playing the game and are very skilled, which can cause some frustration but not enough to really bother me.

Lastly the steam version has functioned fine for me, unlike the case with mass effect 3 which suffers from performance issues due to the origin overlay. Thankfully this is not the case here, aside from one time where it crashed and I had to re-validate the files to make it work again which went fast enough.

Overall, I love this game and I hope to see you give this amazing shooter a try!
