Don't listen to the reviews!!!

I enjoyed the setting, moody atmosphere, some of the visuals were terrific, the soundstage was awesome. Playing in the dark with headphones on, I couldn't help but get carried away.

BUT: Jacob moves just a bit too slow. I know, this could be intentional, he's not nimble like Lare Croft or Ellie in TLOU, but come on... beating the same 6 or 7 enemies over and over with your baton gets old real quick and the gunplay just sucks. How many times have you died trying to reload or switching weapons? Games like Tomb Raider, Uncharted and TLOU nail that part of the gameplay soooo much better. Why not just use their template for gunplay and improve the overall experience?

For this reason I opted for the Maximum Security glitch. Even at Minimum Security I felt I was fighting the awkward controls more than the actual enemies.

A shame really. This game could have been great - in my opinion - but the controls really let it down.
