Because it genuinely does show its age. A lot of the game's systems are pretty shallow and mediocre, and for a game all about choices and your approach, it really falls off in ramifications and such for those choices once you get past the beginning stretch--and the ones you actually do see don't really matter much either. It's cool the first time you get the kill phrase for Gunther, but it's diminished heavily by the fact that the "boss battles" are shit and he's a total pushover.It's still got some things that hold up, like the level design is pretty clever for what it is, and the story + atmosphere are immaculate, but the rest is kinda eh. At this point, I genuinely do enjoy Human Revolution more. Some of the missions are a bit more shallow in level design, but everything else is either a huge improvement or at worst just on-par with the original.
