The story of "Infamous: First Light" is a focused and character-driven exploration of Fetch's backstory, providing her with significant character growth and a deeper understanding of her relationships, particularly with Brent. While the narrative is praised for its emotional depth and engaging protagonist, it suffers from repetitive missions and a lack of innovation compared to its predecessor, "Second Son." Overall, the game offers a compelling but brief storyline that may feel familiar to returning players.
- “First Light is a great story with a better character, and fans of Second Son who want more Second Son, First Light is worth playing. It's fun, it's got a bit of a dark tone, believe it or not, and the arenas in the game are so addicting as well.”
- “The only thing missing is the karma feature, which is not really needed for Fetch's backstory, which gives her much-needed character growth, and we finally figure out who Brent is.”
- “A familiar but powerful origin story.”
- “Unfortunately, the missions are pretty repetitive and weigh down the experience a fair bit.”
- “[weak story filled with underdeveloped characters, uninteresting mission design]”
- “[ham-fisted dialogue and characterizations, exploitable powers suck all the tension from combat, uninspired mission design]”
