Driving was deadly dull. The game itself was not.

Have to agree with Ms. Black, the MC is incredibly rude and incesitive.

I would put him more as being cold and objective, he does care but puts it aside to do his job. That can come off as rude and insensitive.

But he talks really agressively to people sometimes, who aren't even suspected of anything.

He suspects everyone of everything. Part of it to me is also because it is a different time frame, cops were more aggressive and it isn't like he is the worst of the bunch in the game in that regard.

Game doesn't skip dialog whilst getting driven, at least not plot related ones.

Fair point.

The other part I think is bad voice actor direction.

I kinda enjoyed just driving around in the sports cars in free mode, just enjoying the visuals and engrossing myself in the old time world.

Eh. I'm sure it'll be a good game and all, but I didn't really warm to either of the first two. It's a nicely realised world, but the game aspects of it never really clicked with me. I liked the first two books a lot, too.

I've not played any of them before. Honestly, if it wasn't for the free copy I wouldn't be playing it, something about it seems a bit... Meh to me. I may be wrong, I'll find out in the next few days.

The combat is definitely an improvement over the previous. A lot smoother. The clunkiness of TW2 put me off it and I never finished it.

I stayed up way too late last night. I was only supposed to watch the intro, set the options and play the tutorial and get them out of the way to play it today. Of course once I'd did that I wanted to have a gander around the world (it looks amazing even on PS4). It wasn't long before I ran into trouble and felt compelled to help.
