    Nah, that’s not the insane rush, that’s actually a really chill first mission to help you get into the swing of them

    The opening where you run down a big hill and then a cutscene where a bunch of shadow creatures attack and kill some guys really horribly and then a big explosion goes off and kills your character but the baby in his throat stops sucking it’s thumb so he can be reborn

    “Get the presidents body the fuck out of here” makes perfect sense and looks tame as shit after THAT
