There are no major departures here, which is a good thing, as it focuses on ranged combat with some “best of” type moments like extended stealth sequences and controlling aerial weaponry. It feels great.

Eller has been hot lately, racking up five points over his last five games, while going +2 with 10 shots and one short-handed marker. He slipped a tad offensively last season, but with 10 points in his first 14 games, he could he headed for a career best. Eller was seeing time on the second line earlier this season, but he’s now spearheading the third line.

While the idea is interesting, the execution leaves a lot to be desired. The way that the various shop owners just go along with the idea of three women undercutting the mob with basically no questions asked seemed lazy and absurd. It feels like they went from broke to successful overnight, and since no struggle or adversity is shown in reaching that point it doesn’t provide a reason to feel happy for them.

Our biggest complaint, however, is the camera, which remains locked in place as you try to move around these winding levels, often to your detriment.

Hill looks like he’s going to provide value as the Bucks’ sixth man this season, and the fact that he went a team-best +16 in season opener underscores how valuable he is to this team. Always a solid free throw shooter, he flirted with a double-double on Thursday, and it’s looking like he’s going to get much more PT than he received after getting dealt to Milwaukee last season. Hill’s an athletic guard, but has generally been limited by his defense, so coming off the bench suits his game better.
