“Despite the tone, despite the irritants that will stop you giving hours to it at a time, The Crew 2 isn’t a bad game; I can’t stress that enough. Sure, it’s well made, but it’s uninspiring and, too often, just boring, eschewing the Inception-like world bending the pre-release trailers promised for simple street racing, a dull XP system and, honestly, things like drift racing which are mostly done better in other games. What you’re left with is just an average game, and that’s disappointing given how brilliant a game with this idea could be.”
