Set in both the heart and outside of City 17, "The Citizen Returns" contains the final chapters of our citizen's story, as well as an updated version of Part II. The story takes place shortly after a failed assassination attempt on Dr. Breen leads to the first ever use of the Overwatch Broadcast system by The Resistance, represented by former garage owner Larry Soderstrom. The Combine forces decide to capture him and try to use his public repentance and execution as a means to appease the emergent rebellion. The Citizens of City 17 however have other ideas in mind. Larry is now a symbol for the rebellion and a key asset in a bigger plot to deal a fatal blow to the Combine and its grip on humankind...
Now that's what i call quality gameplay!
I enjoyed this mod very much, and I'm glad that the citizen's story had finally come to a close. But here are the cons of this mod:
1.Visuals have taken somewhat of a priority over gameplay (Not necessarily a bad thing in a few cases, but still feels to be drawn out till the ending)
2.Sub-par voice acting, the feeling and emotion was just simply not there, especially in stressful situations.
3.The ending felt a bit rushed in being put together.
4.Some parts of the story could have been put into more detail (I will explain this later on)
Now let's look at the pros!
1.Excellent level design (in my opinion at least)
2.Good variety of characters
3.Excellent story plot (attacking the water treatment plant was a good choice)
My biggest issue was some aspects of the story. At the casino, there is some type of zombie creature that you must escape from (it was invulnerable last mod, not sure why that was changed because it added a sense of urgency to escape.) What was the point of this creature or even having a haunted casino, don't get me wrong, it was cool, but what point did it serve? How did the monster get there in the first place? Small things like this I feel can be detrimental to the main plot (citizens rebelling against oppressors).
The ending did not exactly live up to my expectations, it seemed to have been rushed, hastily put together, and killing off Larry like that just seems like an excuse to make a quick ending in time for release.
WAit WAit and wait finaly the citizen final story come
