Titanfall 2 Review

General
*A loud boom echoes as a massive bipedal titan drops down from open and the cockpit opens up, I step out and remove my helmet, sighing*
Just wrapped up the campaign of Titanfall 2, short campaign but holy hell did they nail it!
Now i never played the first game, infact it was mostly forgettable, but thankfully Titanfall 2 fixes the lack of campaign in the first but giving us one here. Long story short you play as JAck Cooper, a rifleman in the Militia, a group of homesteaders, pirates, farmhands, mercs, living out in the Frontier, a section of space, where they fight against the IMC, a corporation in charge of a massive army that seeks tot ake independence of the frontier from the Militia and extract its resources.
But the bigest draw here are the Titans, massive bipedal walkers armed tot he teeth with weapons, and just so happens you get one in the form of BT. BT becomes your Titan and you work together to investigate the IMC's goals on the alien world of Typhon, and stop them. In your path is Apex Predators, a mercenary group of Pilots with their own titans. Led by a man named Blisk, they're acting as your bosses, each titan customized and having their own unique loadout.
Now the main gimmick besides being a shooter, its fairly run of the mill, except it includes vertical running, running along walls, shooting with new guns and pretty awesome weapons, but the main draw is the Titans. As BT you cna access unique loadouts, such as the Legion type, a minigun that shreds through your opponents, or my personal favorite, Ion, which harnesses lasers against your enemies. You get a oadout depending on the weapons, consisting of the weapon, a shield, a trap, a secondary firing style and finally the core, your special ability. You can get these in the campaign and use them however you wish against enemies.
The campaign is short, but man was it a blast, normally i don't get atatched to the characters, but i felt more atatched to BT than anyone in a shooter, save Captain Price from COD. Then again i think it had something to do with shreding enemies with a laser point blank at them...good times.
Haven't tried multiplayer as of now, but so far, i'm excited to go out and try against players. For people who think they need to play Titanfall 1 to know the story, here's what you need to know, mostly it was multiplayer matches veiled as a campaign and you take down a IMC fuel depot in Demeter, they reference it in Titanfall 2, but for the most part the first game is forgettable. Now 2, this is the game you need to play.
Till then, i'm Drag0nK1ngMark, i'll see you guys next time,
STANDBY FOR TITANFALL!
*i jump back in my Titan, grab my Ion loadout and jump back into the raging battle below*
