I'm feelin' lazy today, so I'll just make a pros & cons list.
+ Healthy amount of collectibles.
+ Messing around with paint and thinner (more so thinner) is fun. To an extent.
+ Music isn't too shabby.
+ If memory serves, the boss battles are pretty fun.
+ The extras are a nice touch.
- Pointless filler fetch quests.
- Having to replay the 2D sections over and over again.
- The moral system feels... Rudimentary. Being an insufferable dick to everyone doesn't really have much consequences, (Believe me, I'm talking from experience) contrary to what Mr. Spector claimed. The only thing that's affected is the ending. I thought it'd have an effect on the gameplay or the boss battles, or something like that.
- The unskippable, snooze-inducing in-game cutscenes. (Yet interestingly, the actually somewhat enjoyable hand-drawn cutscenes can be skipped.)
- Monotone combat.
I also think that the camera and control issues are pretty blown out of proportion, but they're still not commendable enough to be counted as a plus.
All in all... Not a huge fan.
