There's nothing wrong with going for the mindless action genre. Not everything needs to be an attempt to recreate a Dickens' novel; that applies doubly to the videogame industry that is so notoriously bad at creating engaging plot lines. |
That's fair enough. My problem isn't the mindless action genre, the problem is that GoW2 is attempting to be something "deeper" than it really is. I don't recall Die Hard having any moments of philosophical pondering and it was better off that way. The VA is another issue, it's downright bad.
