And that's Crysis 2 done and dusted. Got so bored towards the end I just stealthed through the levels. -_-
Story was poor with characters being forgotten, characters with no real purpose, plot twists that had no meaning and affected nothing, plot points that end up going no where or forgotten only for some to turn up and continue again later as if there was some great plan around them all along, some things just being poorly explained and just generally being pretty poor and disjointed. This is why you don't let authors or script writers write your video games story unless they actually know, understand and appreciate the different medium. Also for the record I understood everything.
Gameplay wise also pretty average. Just a CoD clone now with some of the Crysis toys thrown in, most of which don't get used because they don't suit the linear levels and lack of freedom. Not terrible but so amazingly forgettable. The game had nothing memorable in it except the setting for the last level. Weapon customization got a downgrade and Armor upgrades needs to be reworked as they're not very good atm.
