The plot is gibberish, story is atrocious, the themes are either dissonant or nonexistent, the levels are tiny, the mechanics are shallow, the environments are boring, the characters are schlock, the dialog is verbose and clunky, the cutscenes are torture, the save system is a crime, the ladies are all pandering fanservice, the fanservice is creepy sophomoric milquetoast, the puzzles are insultingly shallow, the voice acting is wooden, the character designs are ugly and cliche, the missions don&#8217;t fit with the franchise, and the gameplay is a mess. On the other hand, if we rate Absolution on the completely objective scale of &#8220;number of people you can push to their deaths&#8221;, then it ranks as one of the greatest videogames ever made.<\/p>\n<p>Unrelated: There&#8217;s a balcony on my apartment that has a two-story drop to a concrete walkway.
