Thanks! The grappling hook specifically felt like a bit of a stretch compared to other items in the game, but it's only really required for a handful of situations.
Enemy AI was pretty hit-or-miss. Sometimes they were really good at flanking and pushing me out from behind cover, but in stealth situations they were pretty clueless.
The Expeditions metagame definitely adds some fun extra stuff to do outside the core story, but it wasn't particularly engaging for us to continue playing after the story was complete.
The Gnarcade site is finally up, nice!
Solid article, and an interesting concept. 10/10 would play Sheik spin-off.
