You start off on a train entering a place called City 17. When you get there, there are all these weird soldiers around, and all the humans there are like prisoners, they really did a good job of creating that atmosphere. It looks like when they opened the portal in the last game, all those other creatures came across and took over, enslaving everybody.
It really is a badass game...I can't even remember the last time I got so into a game that I lost track of time.
