Great game overall. The final area seemed to be a bit too stretched out, and the last boss was a bit too easy compared to the fights leading up to it. I lost my rogue and healer halfway through and tanked the final phase down with just my warrior, Morrigan, and pots. The coolest part of the game by far was

. Really creative, and most of the areas in there were laid out so well for tactically approaching the encounters. The second half of the Orzammar chain was pretty dope too.

Has anyone messed around with the Toolset yet?

First off all I didn't say it wasn't a sequel, I said it was the least updated. And what I consider a good sequel, a sequel that adds enough to justify a full price tag would be TF2, HL2, MW, MW2, BF2, BF:BC. L4D2 amounts to barely more then new maps, and models, it's as many said more how the first should have been then something that go's beyond. It is in no way in the same league as the aforementioned games, they added a lot more to the previous games, and took more then a year to make. And teams like IW and dice have a lot of experience making games on tight schedules, when has valve ever made something in less then a year?

The only thing that hasn't been significantly updated for L4D2 over the first are the core gameplay mechanics and the graphics. Were are you getting this info from?

And frankly it shows, it's one of the least updated sequels I've seen this gen.

How so? Generally a new cast of characters, new story/setting, new gameplay modes, loads of new content, new weapons, and improvement to existing mechanics from the original is considered worthy of a sequel. Why is this IP exempt from that? Because it violated the 2 years between sequels law?
