We did not ask for a new part of the Rage 2 game, but the publisher Bethesda promised us a new and different experience, and if we were able to do a quick comparison between it and Rage 1, the differences will not widen much. The game design and its vibrant colors are the only difference, but the rest is the same. Distinguished, given that it is a union between two of the best studios that provide us with excellent single player experiences, namely the Avalanche studio, the developer of Just Cause series, and the Mad Max game developer, which we will quote a lot from in this review, and the ID Software studio, which devised the idea of shooting games from the first perspective as It is significantly superior in this type to the rest of the stadium Hat and has developed games such as Wolfenstein and Doom, and the Avalanche games are characterized by the World Open and ID Software is characterized by fighting style unique, let alone unite the two together !! Of course, we will expect an excellent open world game with an amazing fighting system, and this is what happened with Rage 2, but unfortunately they made other mistakes in the basics of the game ..
As usual for Rage, interest in the story comes as number 2 after the game style, unfortunately, as the game is a type of Post-Apocalyptic and centered after 30 years of the first part, and plays with a character called Walker, a soldier known as the Ranger and they are a group of soldiers chosen to put them In rooms called Arks or tanks to keep them from perishing during the fall of the meteorite to the ground 30 years ago ..
But a man in an automated uniform called General Cross manipulates tanks, wakes up some soldiers, and leaves others in a bid to take control of the land, now known as Wasteland, by creating an organization called the Authority.
Of course, it is up to you to re-enlist the Wasteland in order to face this terrible danger, and you have hired 3 people who have fought Cross before: John Marshall, Loosum and the world Kvasir, and with your cooperation you are making a Dagger project with the aim of eliminating crossover ...
Rage 2 made a very excellent introduction to the characters, as she had the factors that might help her in giving a great story and unforgettable situations, but unfortunately the characters were not used correctly as the studio did not care to develop them with your progress in the game story unlike the game Wolfenstein, which exploited her characters well while here It was an honorable presence and they had no role other than their main goal in the story, and to solve this problem the studio could have included them in some sub-missions, but this did not happen even though they are interesting because of the lack of a large number of sub-missions that concern them who are essentially ..
Game world:
The game is of the open world type and is short as it lasts for a maximum of 15 hours, and 15 hours includes exploration and sub-activities, so you can imagine, dear reader, how many main missions are few and short, and, as we said, the application of the story in the game is bad despite the presence An excellent environment, the basis of a good story, a wide world and excellent characters, but the story simply avoids all of this and does not come into contact with only superficially with all these factors. The studio has noted this, so he forced the players to do a large number of sub-activities to prolong the game time and until you can reach a certain level For the last task to become available to you and we can not say N the end is very frustrating, as if Alastdyohann development began together, and each one of them put elements of which the advantage and then argue about the story at the end of it ..
The sub-activities in the game are divided into 3 main branches, a special branch for combat, a branch for exploration, and a branch for cars, and each branch falls under many sub-activities as well. For example, in the fighting branch, you have 3 types of enemies who are the soldiers of the Authority, bandits and Gangs and mutants and you can eliminate mutants nests or eliminate gang stations or fight the Authority soldiers in their places of station ..
Game progress:
Progress in the game will stop you at the end of the matter, as the main tasks are few as mentioned, then you will stop at a crossroads and that is to do all the sub-activities of the game in order to get all the weapons, skills and developments to feel the top of your benefit to the game world and then go to the last mission or will try to raise Your level to reach the last mission quickly without obtaining all the weapons and skills and the remaining sub-activities are postponed until after the last main mission, but then you will face a problem that is summarized in a question: “What will drive me to search for the latest developments or search for new weapons and I have finished Everything in the game, do not be crowned D story or other missions in which to use the new weapons !! ”, and the story must have been very much very long, so you should have been rewarded with weapons while you were in the story missions and not by exploration ..
We also wished to see the characters of the game with sub-missions with additional bonuses, so you end up in the end of the game by obtaining all the skills and weapons that the game offers you, and this will increase the number of hours of play to reach 50 hours, for example, I ended the game personally in 13 hours and after its completion I felt that there was no need to waste more time exploring new weapons, as there were no missions to use them in. Reg 2 is a poor game based on sub-activities, leaving the story and unfortunately this is very disappointing ..
Playing style:
As for the gameplay, which is the pillar of this game, I can say with confidence that the fighting system is considered the best in the history of games and this is not strange for a studio like ID Software, the control is excellent and the feeling of the character's movement and its weight is very beautiful, the weapons are very diverse and there are no sniping weapons because of a desire The developers live the bloody and violent atmosphere of the game up close, all weapons you want to imagine are available in Rage 2 from regular pistols, machine guns, bombs and shotgans, surely it will help you to watch the mutants as they turn into a pool of blood and the animation caused by killing your enemies raises You have any negative energy that may radiate Rin it, consider the game as a way to get your negative feelings out of the same way as Doom with special Rage 2 flavors.
