I caved and bought the game yesterday. It has its Hitman origins mixed with a bit of Uncharted but ultimately it feels like a Splinter Cell game that Ubisoft can't make any more. I'm all for it and hope it does well for sequels.
I went into this thinking I will probably focus on stealth. But I am going hand to hand, as it is way satisfying. I love how the fights interact with the environment. I love the X+A takedowns.They could have called this Splinter Cell Conviction 2 and I wouldn't have batted an eye. Hand to hand combat is superb.
Finished the game as well. I’d go an 8/10, really only losing points for the weird pacing. It was jarring going from a 30 minute action set piece to a segment with 1-2 hours of slow walking then to a stealth section….it had the feel at times that the runtime was being padded.Beat the game yesterday. Solid 8.5/10.
We will probably have DLC coming out for this due to the ending. A minor grip is that a small portion of the missions felt like filler but not a huge deal.
Really felt like a Bond movie through and through.
My only thing is Greenway. I like his character, but I don't like how they incorporated the puzzles/gameplay around his broken arm.Finished the game as well.

Will jump into tacsim this week to test it out, interested to see the driving scenarios coming soon
While IO Interactive self-published that game, the head of Amazon Games says that won't be the case going forward. In an interview with Polygon, Jeff Gattis, GM of gaming at Amazon, says that while the tech giant "didn't have the full rights to this First Light James Bond game," sequels will be "done by MGM and, theoretically, by Amazon Game Studios."
“We did not [make First Light]. We do have a stake in it because we now own the IP," Gattis explains, "but that IP acquisition happened after the First Light IO deal was already done."
