007 First Light Disappointed Me, And Heres Why [X3ynmJTjhxB]

Most reviewers loved 007 First Lightso why did it leave me, a huge Hitman/IO Interactive fan, disappointed? In my critical review of pwhl playoffs 007 First Light, I break down the biggest reasons the game failed to live up to my expectations.

While most reviews of 007 First Light have been six flags very kind, I can't help but feel a little empty having beaten ithaving seen that potential of "007 tackled by the people who made Hitman" as YouTube's Number One Hitman Guy and feeling like the end product came up more than a little short. So here is my honest review to set the record straight.

First Light shifts the improvisatory dynamic of Hitman's stealth to 007's John Wick-esque gunplay, but it does so at the cost of making everything around those sparse action sequences staggeringly simplisticcoming across more like a Diet Watch Dogs than anything reaching the heights of the World of Assassination trilogy. In this review/analysis/critique of 007 First Light, let's talk about it!
