It was always a sandbox, the levels were always meant to be replayed with different approaches, mastering the level, the routes, npc/item locations.
Not the case with 007, from what I heard. For a comparison: imagine every level would play out like a Mads Mikkelsen mission they’ve recently added - you can choose your approach, but there’s more railroading.

Not great. Not terrible, but not great.
Good stuff: got my permanent residency in Germany.
Bad stuff: pretty burnt out (on a sick leave atm), but going to interviews instead of resting. Also I’m being sued in my home country, cause a friend who lives in my apartment may or may not have flooded a neighbour downstairs and I don’t have the energy to fight this properly to prove that it wasn’t my fault.
