The story of "Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2" is characterized by its over-the-top, campy narrative that blends humor with serious themes, making it engaging and memorable. Players appreciate the diverse missions and the iconic live-action cutscenes that add a cinematic feel, although some technical issues, such as crashes during cutscenes, have been noted. Overall, the game is praised for its rich storytelling and the unique charm of its characters, making it a standout title in the RTS genre.
“The story is great, and, while comedic, takes itself seriously enough to not wink at the camera like many modern games/movies do.”
“The over-the-top acting and dramatic storylines were as fun as ever, adding a cinematic feel to the experience.”
“The campaign is engaging, with memorable missions and hilarious 'made for TV' movie cutscenes that certainly add to its charm.”
“The story became a joke and the whole thing felt like having Austin Powers as a new 007.”
“Sadly with the base game on the other hand it's a bit of a different story and the constant crashes and feeling of slowness while playing on speed 5 will make it a slog getting through it.”
“Plays well, however the Soviet campaign is broken; an error message pops up during the cutscene after the 'Fox and the Hound' mission that keeps coming up every time, essentially locking the campaign.”
