Terminator: Resistance Annihilation Line DLC Review - The Final Verdict
718Terminator Resistance: Annihilation Line is hard to recommend to anyone who found the base game unappealing. The same complaints about Resistance’s somewhat mushy movement, generic progression systems, and boilerplate mission structure could all just as easily be levelled at this expansion. But at the same time, so could all the adulation for its outstanding portrayal of the dystopian future from the Terminator franchise.
The characters still work, and the vibe still feels right. Considering that, along with the better pacing and not really getting in the way of everything else that made the base game shine, it’s an easy recommendation for those that are already poised to pick it up on PS5 and PC. I would have really liked to see Teyon flex what they’ve learned from Resistance a bit more here and extend the reach of this game, as I truly believe it’s a quintessential example of a diamond in the rough. But as it is, more of the same with some conservative tweaking around the edges isn’t an inherently bad thing.
