The problem with the Crysis franchise is...

[temps]

... it was always way more fun to fight vs the North Koreans than to fight vs the aliens.

And they fixed that with Crysis 2. In which, the aliens fight just like the humans.

Crysis 2 is the better game.

In that way yes, but they broke many others. Like static world, less physics and destructible and way more linear sandbox. Still, I love Crysis 2.

And ever since after wars & 1, they stopped caring about multiplayer.

♥♥♥♥, no dude. Crysis 2 might have a slightly better and more cinematic presentation, but mechanically it has been dumbed down and is not half as fun as the open sandbox gameplay of Crysis 1. Tastes differ of course, but we must not forget history. And Crysis 2 is the literal reason why the franchise took a nosedive and never reached the overall popularity it deserved. Not even Crysis 3 could fix that. Comparing Crysis 1 and 2 is like comparing Half-Life 2 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. That should speak for itself.

One problem with the aliens is you can't really see them properly.

You can't see those neon lighting flying motherf*ckers?

You can't really see the detail on them. They are a mess graphically.

Crysis 2 is my favourite because it's linear lol although I enjoyed 3 a lot too... the first game is definitely my least favourite but in saying all this I didn't get around to these games until the remasters so I was a bit fed up with open world games by that point

This is not about what you or I are thinking, it's about what you can literally see. If you can't see any detail in the Ceph aliens then you either need glasses or should consider playing on higher graphical settings.

Thats generally the consensus

But Crytek seems to have a fetish for introducing less fun, more spongy enemies in the late half of their game
