Red Faction II

Playing this after Red Faction is like playing Deus Ex, and immediately playing Invisible War after it. The story is out of place in the series. The platforming in the game is meh. The level designs are meh. The poor color schemes make it hard to see what's what. The shooting feels worse than the first game. The checkpoint system is worse. It just seems a downgrade in so many ways. the GeoMod engine is absolutely over-rated at this time. It's nothing special, and had I bought this off of the advertising at full price...I'd be livid,. The game also broke for me near the end. It told me I needed battle armor to continue, but the door wouldn't open. While I don't get every platinum, I finish almost every game I buy. I got it for $2 to check it out. Don't pay more. it's really just a waste of time. Good riddance to you, as wasting someone's time is the worst thing you can do. Been playing games since '78, and I know why I missed this one back then.

The best Red Faction game imo. Literally been playing it ( on ps2 ) since it came out. One of my all time fav games. Anyone hating on this is blinded by nostalgia from the first game. Bought it on here but it wouldn't run, gonna try it again in the future. I would absolutely LOVE to play it on KB&M, prolly feels amazing. SPAM ME WITH MESSAGES IF IT E V E R GETS A VR PORT. I WOULD DO ANYYYYTHING FOR RF2 TO BE PLAYABLE IN VR.

Probably one of worst sequels ive ever played, Red Faction 1 was such an important game to my childhood, its a shame that this is where they went with it.

Just a blah, boring, short even for a FPS, underwhelming game. But I also have spent $2 on worse so at least there is that. It also doesn't like multi monitor setups. I had to turn off the secondary monitor. Else the mouse would run over to it and you lose control of the game.

Red Faction Two has almost nothing to do with the original game. It is essentially its own game but instead they took all the guns and music from the first game, made them worse, and then half a**ed everything into what can't be called a sequel imo. You won't miss anything skipping this game. The boss fights were easy and the mechanics were easy to abuse. The story was boring and the shallow characters brought no emotions or anything to appreciate, unless you were in kindergarten, in fact, I would only recommend this game as an intro fps to a 10 year old kid or maybe younger. I actually was gifted this game as an intro fps as a kid, and just never got to completing it until now, yet I have replayed the first game more than once. I also didn't know how to make this game playable since I was a kid (I only needed to change the resolution ig).

Wow all I can say is just wow.. what happened to this franchise already? Red Faction 2 is probably one of the weirdest sequels I've ever played for any game. I'm not sure you can even call this a sequel because it so loosely ties into the first game you can skip it and play this one and miss nothing. The game has you playing as a new character named Alias who is part of some group of other super soldiers or something, honestly the dialogue and the cutscenes were directed so poorly it was honestly hard to understand what was going on. You work your way through some levels until you finally decide its time to kill some dictator dude and then BAM we're at the climax of the game. The rag tag team separates and you gotta get revenge. If theres anything I noticed with volition games is that they are mostly always about getting revenge on those who wronged you. After some boring fights you finally get revenge and beat them. My first initial thoughts are I'm very disappointed with the way red faction is portrayed in this game. Sure they weren't portrayed any better in the first game since they are useless but here they are even more useless and used as nothing but fodder for the enemy.…
