That's basically the whole mission described in one sentence. It really is a freakin' mess, the layout of this mission. Kept going around too many times to be "my fault, skill issue".
So, when you finally get to where you're supposed to, and you can forget the stress of trying to find your way around the vertical maze, and the holy-fokin'-shite all the metal surfaces that were put EVERYWHERE by the author, beyond any reasonable amount especially for a TG mission, and not metallic-heavy T2, only *then* the good stuff starts. The buildings, interiors, many passageways, secrets, easter eggs, some weird/creepy elements. Loved the area around the hammerite church especially, many ways upwards and downwards, multiple small interiors all around. That's great, that's what makes this FM a great City mission.
Story-wise the mission is okay, but this isn't really a story-focused FM for my taste, the best here is the lore in readables, main story is a-okay, and doesn't really get expanded. Great intro tho, always nice. But... shame voice actor for Garrett (at least I think so) didn't actually, you know...? Play Garrett during this mission, to expand on the things he sees? And not just with stock lines? I believe there might be just literally one voiced conversation in the entire mission, and that's the cute pair, and the third wheel in the closet. Kind of... not enough? So much of the good stuff went into the intro, but there is almost nothing the mission itself. Big minus, and a shame.
Going back to the metal, the ton of it... I get it, industrial sector of the city, factories, metal, but man - this is still a game, it's supposed to be fun to play. At times it really ain't, especially when going up, it's frustrating at best xD. And combo that with an extremely confusing and weird layout in practice, despite the map showing it's a one street only.
7,5/10 - too much of metallic maze, not enough of story and lore, great City mission unless you blink and lose your orientation.
