inFamous First Light (PS5)
I honestly thought First Light was just gonna be Second Son with a different skin, maybe a quick side story slapped on. But it actually feels a bit different. The shooting is smoother, the focus on Fetch’s powers makes combat more polished, and her neon abilities have way more variety. It’s a nice improvement overall, even if at the end of the day it’s still the same core game.
Still, I found the mission structure repetitive and kind of boring. Even the main missions sometimes felt more like side challenges than proper story missions. I know it’s just a DLC and not a full game, more of a standalone expansion, but that doesn’t make it much more fun. What really carried it for me was the story and especially Fetch. I already liked her character from Second Son, so I was invested from the start. The narrative itself is strong and I enjoyed it, but the gameplay loop gets old fast.
But I gotta admit that the last mission design and the ending were good. It wraps up as a solid revenge story, and I really enjoyed how it played out.
