    What? I thought the original game had a similar thing or is my memory playing tricks on me again? I didn’t play it a lot so I could be wrong.

      It sorta did. There was a “galactic campaign” but it didn’t have a Game Master the way that HD2 does.

        It’s pretty fantastic for generating hype. Sure gamers can commiserate with each other over particularly hard campaign levels in offline campaigns, but malevalon creek was a whole wave of memes and other engagement.

        It’s just such a shame Sony had to shit it all up, and that the devs keep pumping out monthly warbonds instead of fixing and balancing what we already have first. I haven’t tried polar patriots yet but the reviews so far are not great. Meanwhile they keep nerfing good weapons.
