Gears 4 felt more like a filler game where a lot of things get introduced but nothing gets carried forward into the rest of the game. The game felt like it was designed exclusively to set up the narrative for Gears 5.
I’m 1 hour into Gears 5 and I felt that the narrative within the first one hour of the game felt a lot better. Gears 4 felt like you were the only living beings out there but gears 5 feels less lonely.
I don’t know how the rest of the game is but this is my first impression.
Multiplayer wise gears 5 is amazing. I have 10 hours in MP and Horde so far and I love the horde mode. MP is a sweatfest like its always been in gears.
Shocked this game had any sequels at all. Came out sometime after the original halo and it had like 4 weapons. Did they add more?
I’m not sure what Halo has to do with it? Also from what I remember Gears was a huge franchise back in the peak Xbox 360 days so of course it got sequels
I think you just noted why they compared them. Both were huge.
Kinda sad to see the state of them now.
wouldn’t it be crazy if they could, i dunno, add weapons in sequels?
That WOULD be crazy! It might even prompt some people to ask if it had been done! Crazy!
Yes, there are some pretty fun weapons in the Gears sequels. I like the torque bow.
