This piece of shit killed the Red Faction franchise imo and I think it's probably why there hasn't been another Red Faction game since then. To go from the fantastic Red Faction: Guerrilla to this steaming pile of shit is mindblowing, who thought this was a good idea? They got rid of almost everything that made Red Faction: Guerrilla great in Armageddon. It wasn't open world anymore, the insanely fun multiplayer was gone aside from some shitty horde mode, the story was fucking awful, etc. I know that the Red Faction franchise was bought by Nordic Games (Now called THQ Nordic) back during the acquisition of THQ's IP's a while ago, so i'm hoping that means they do have plans for another game eventually. Just fucking make Armageddon a shitty spin-off non-canon game that isn't actually a part of the main franchise and it's all good. |
Red Faction: Guerilla wasn't a pure Red Faction to begin with. So getting rid of everything that made Guerilla great is by no means bad. Its just something different.
At least Armageddon had a Story to begin with, something Guerilla completely lacked. I loved Guerilla for the destruction Engine but thats about it. The openWorld was absolutely dead.
I was way more intrested in the Story Armageddon had and I played it without stopping till the end. The Story actually had a great pace. Can't say there has been much that is memorable but I really liked it.
The Multiplayer was gone, yeah too bad, but I guess there are more people playing the Multiplayer of Red Faction 1 now than Guerilla. So yeah...
It is no sequel to Guerilla. But its a great game for itself.
Still missing the atmosphere of the original Red Faction, none of the following games could catch that.
