Love the aesthetic, and the story is quite intriguing, but I found the core gameplay a bit underwhelming
Every encounter basically ends with a QTE. I don't get it, same way as I didn't get running down a straight line and stopping for occasional rudimentary shooting galleries in Killer7.
I'd probably still get through the game for the story and atmosphere, but all the extracurricular activities you're forced to do between missions were unbearable for me. Driving physics are non-existent, side-quests are often clunky and really basic, the town is really boring and unnecessary, the loading screens are long. Just let me play through the story, I don't wanna waste time on all this half-baked shit.
I have heard though that this version is considered much worse than the original. It seems that the main gripes are with the combat system though, which seems almost the same from the screenshots. I assume on Wii there's probably more controller-wiggling, which is probably my least favorite feature here. Whereas all the between-missions nonsense seems to be present in both versions, so I doubt I'll try the original.
