Did not enjoy the first game. I'm 25 hours into this and loving it.​

What about the first game didn't you enjoy and why is this one more to your liking? If you don't mind my askin', seeing as to how I haven't played either and plan to play them in succession.​

First game had good ideas but they didn’t have the budget to execute at a high quality. The skill tree/building was very boring to me and that is usually what makes or break these type of games for me. First game feels like a prototype compared to the sequel. The sequel is superior in every way. How few skill points they give to force you to stick to a certain play style and gunplay feels great. I can’t compare stories because I didn’t get far enough into TOW 1 to compare it to this.

Yeaah, I'm actually hooked. I also playing it like a stealth games lets me take my time with it and really enjoy traversing the world.


I feel like if you just want to run and gun and don't really care about the rpg elements the game is going to be a very mid experience for you.

Playing Borderlands 2, I'm realizing that this is actually a good thing in terms of levelling up, since at times I try to be a jack of all trades type build and end up underutilizing certain skills that would strengthen my playstyle; especially if loot tends to be geared towards random drops that makes your current weapon of preference outdated depending on the level you're at compared to the level the weapon is. Look forward to playing this shyt though, Thanks for answering breh.​
