I loved this first game. And i pre ordered the new game as fast my bank reached it. Now started pre-downloading to experience the game as fast i wake up the day it gets released! I'm so hyped! I'm just hoping my expectations wont be blown but i heard they focused allot more on story (looks like it from trailer too) and that is what i missed from last game. They didn't focus that much on the story then in my opinion (stil loved it). And now it is even openworld!

Omg, I wish I could play it, but I need a new PC first (my current system is a potato >.<).
But I already saw a few walkthroughs on Youtube (thanks to EA Access). The game looks awesome and the open world aspect is sooo promising!
Damn, I want to play it too!!! Anyway, I hope you have fun with it! :)

The root or origin of video games has always been about gameplay mechanics. Watch a movie or read a book if you want a good story.

Well some games have good stories tho...
And btw, there are many movies and books that contain stories allot worse than some games.

"Why isn't there more focus on designing games with good stories rather than blind shoot-em-ups and hack-n-slashes?[www.quora.com]

"The reason is because games are not about story, they're about mechanics. They're about gameplay. You can put a story on any kind of game mechanic. [IT'S NOT WHAT'S IMPORTANT.]

A game with a great story and crappy gameplay will fail.

A game with no story and great gameplay will win.

Put a great story on great gameplay and you'll have something special.

Age of Empires, DOOM and Minecraft don't give you a story - it's all about gameplay." -JOHN ROMERO

You dont need to point those things out. I know these statements clearly. The same goes for graphics. A game with good graphics and crappy gameplay will also fail. Like most AAA tittles has not given me as much fun as lesser known games i have because most AAA games focus on effects and graphics, while many of my other games which isn't AAA focus more on gameplay.
