The Beach - Main Chat

[Gene]

I beat the main story last weekend and got the platinum trophy today.

My overall thoughts is that the gameplay is very good and a massive improvement over the first in every way. The only major problem I had is that the driving physics still suck ass and need serious reworking.

The story was a bit of a let down, without spoiling it, I found it to be a pretty lazy retread of the first game.

The grind to get the platinum was fucking gruelling and honestly sours my opinion of it a bit. Getting 5 stars with all the facilities was made way more time consuming than it needed to be and it drove me to the brink of insanity.

After that, I'm gonna put the game to bed for a good, long, time. I suspect it'll be several years till I give it another replay. Even if it is my GOTY so far

Nice work man! I got my platinum today also. The adventurer was by far the most annoying prepper to get to 5 star I think! Ended up actually being my last one, comes to something when I found mr impossible easier (or at least less grindy) 

I found the sub orders in this game much more enjoyable than the first though, considering they were sort of special missions rather than a ‘take this to there’ sort of thing. Made them stand out more compared to the standard orders. 

I quite enjoyed the story, it is very similar to the first game mind you, but it does make me wonder if DS3 will follow a similar formula or whether they’ll change it up a bit.
