I think I'm going to finally play Spec Ops: The Line. I bought it on Goon recommendation but have just never gotten around to playing it

Played for about 30 minutes before work. So far it's a bog standard cover shooter from the late 00's / early 10's. I have to disagree about the gunplay so far and it's very fun and rewarding. I have been playing Gears of War 4 recently so being able to take down an enemy in 3 to 4 hits vs. dumping a full clip into each enemy is a rewarding feeling. I like being able to "paint" targets for my team mates to take out. I have heard the story takes some twists and turns and so far I'm happy with it! Will be playing more tonight.

Spec Ops: The Line update:

I just got to the part where Gould (?) uses White Phosphorous on the opposing side. I sort of had to stop at that point because it was a little brutal to see that in a game. There was also a part earlier in the game where you are fighting guys from the 33rd, when all of a sudden a civilian just runs out of nowhere and I just mowed her down I was shocked because I wasn't expecting that. I understand now when people say that the plot is not really the full point of the game. I'm slightly confused at the plot in general but it's whatever, I think though there are some more plot twists in general that will clear everything up. Fun game so far.

I remember Turok 2 being substantially harder than Turok 1. I remember T1 being a pretty general fps and T2 was way more open world and was sort of a "Metroidvania" style with items in one world needed to progress in another

Pretty much.

I think instead of Metroidvania I should've said non-linear. Also when I played it I don't think I had the expansion pack so I had the crazy fog which probably made it substantially more difficult.
