WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN? Seriously, who? Definitely not Alan Moore, he once said something along the lines of Watchmen only working as a comic. Probably not Dave Gibbons either, even though he served as a consultant for the game, primarily to help preserve the aesthetic and atmosphere. So what barely held up in Part One of The End is Nigh, completely falls apart in Part Two, showing glaring weaknesses and being narratively disappointing. Yes, Rorschach is a tragic extremist with problematic views and a tendency toward moral absolutism, and Dan (Nite Owl II) is a failed idealist searching for meaning in a cynical world, stumbling between moral uncertainty and personal longing. This thing also distorts the original character of the Twilight Lady and the game’s story feels like a simplification or sensationalization of what Moore and Gibbons originally created. And just because Sylvia Kovacs was a violent prostitute who regularly abused her son Walter aka Rorschach, or because the ...

User Reviews
Pros: ✔New story and slightly different locations that refresh the gameplay a bit. ✔The third mission stands out and adds some memorable action. ✔A boss fight and even a hero-vs-hero showdown were included. ✔The option to play in co-op, which enhances the experience. ✔The game can be finished quickly and doesn’t overstay its welcome. Cons: ➖Essentially the same game as Part 1, just with a different story. ➖The story is even shorter and feels unfinished — as if rushed to match the film’s release. ➖Gameplay remains repetitive: long corridors and endless fistfights. ➖Combat, while dynamic, loses its sense of epicness quickly. ➖Without the context of the comic or movie, the game feels shallow. ➖Today, the co-op mode is unlikely to work properly, making it hard to experience the game as intended. Conclusion: Watchmen: The End Is Nigh Part 2 isn’t really a full-fledged sequel, but more of a second episode of the same game. Yes, it’s short and...
Don't expect much, combat similar to the Arkham series. Very linear. If you are a fan of the movie Watchmen then id say its worth it for Rorschach's ramblings. Also worth noting you have a strip club level, and a diddy mansion level with hookers and gimps. The bundle for part 1 and 2 goes on sale for { $1.99 USD }, 1 dollar per game, about 2-3 hours of playtime a piece.
