The hype is ridiculous, at gameplay feels like it's getting in the way.
It's hilarious sneaking around clickers while your companions are sprinting around them giving no f***s about what's going on. The pacing seems really weird, they might walk out of a building, then completely chill out without checking their surroundings, assuming that everything is a-ok while the game loads new assets and you get to walk around looking for crap on the ground. Very, very formulaic gameplay. Walk, story sequence, combat sequence, all clear, walk, story sequence, combat sequence, all clear, walk, story...blah blah blah.
I like it however, and I can easily see why people love it, but boy that pacing is not smooth in comparison with the rest of the production.
Sound engineering is ridiculous, comes out great in 7.1 surround and is impressing me the most.
