I was tempted as well, bought it ages ago, think before I even had a gaming laptop... but I am installing Wolfenstein in the end, just because should be shorter to get through

Well it can't be any worse than the first game. I'm glad it is getting a sequel though, there was a lot more that could of been done with the games setting and style. Nice to see Avalanche given the chance to make Mad Max 2.

I don't think it's TERRIBLE. it's a lot more linear than it should be though

kill all the enemies to unlock the next area etc. very bland. Races feel very tacked on too. Story wasn't exactly well presented either...

It gives avalanche a lot of framework to build off of though

Just adopt the visual style and improve the rest.

I booted up Rage the other day and man, it looks like RE4, lol. (i'm talking about asset quality, not art direction).

Full unveil: showing off some driving, fps combat and how a mission can look like.

These sudden "in the interest of time" cuts were a bit disorienting, it felt a bit like BF5, luckily not so seizure prone.

I gotta say, judging from that video, shooting actually looks and feels way better than I thought it would. 

I really did not like that live action teaser revealed, but this gameplay trailer put a lot of my worries at ease. 

Bethesda giving this franchise to avalanche was a move of pure genius, couldn't fit their style any better, while still allowing them to branch out with FPS mechanics. This seems like a day 1 purchase to me.

I enjoyed that. Good job Avalanche. Might even buy it

People say FPS feels like Doom 2016, great

For some reason I'm receiving email from Bethesda and got notified about this article that explains Rage 2 and features lots of screens (more in the article)
