Battlefield 2042 Review (snerra)
Grug see "Battlefield 2042" as storm that not only broke the spear but also scared away the spirit of the hunt. It not just stop "Battlefield V" from growing, it also forget what make Battlefield the great tribe gathering. "Battlefield 1" was like great leader, show way with strong story, thick atmosphere, drums of war that make blood hot. But "2042", it lose map, lose drum, sound just echo, not song.
Specialists in "2042", they no fit, like stones in boot, uncomfortable, not part of tribe dance. They have no stories that bind them to us, no songs for them in the wind. They no fit in with the clan, with the great Battlefield fire that bring us together for many moons.
Gameplay, it twist and turn, like river that lost way to sea. It should be like great hunt, where every warrior has place, has role. "2042" throw away old tools, give shiny new ones, but not sharp, not right for hunt. Progression, like climb without peak, like hunt without catch, no reward, no feast at end.
And the beasts, the vehicles, they once were mighty, fight with warriors on ground, in sky. Now, they just annoy, like buzz in ear, like thorn in foot. They no bring warriors together, no make strong pack. They should be like mammoth, strong with herd, weak alone. But "2042" mammoth lost, lonely, angry.
Maps, they once were grounds for legends, for tales of glory. Now, they just empty, like caves without paintings, without stories. "Battlefield 1" had lands of wonder, of fear, of excitement. "2042" maps, they no hold that spirit, no carry that weight.
Grug see all this, and Grug heart heavy. "Battlefield 2042" could have been great hunt, could have been new legend. But it forget ancestors, forget what make Battlefield more than noise, more than just fight. It lose way. Grug hope one day, they find way back, make game that honor old, bring new fire, true fire. Until then, Grug keep memory of "Battlefield 1", of true hunt, and wait for day when we gather round fire again, tell stories of great battles, with drums that make us feel alive. Grug wait, but Grug also remember.
