The worst enemy is the map level design, too open ended with lots of dead ends. Instead of feeling like exploring, you're confused inside a maze. Lots of dialogue I don't like. Guns isn't the main weapon so less fun. Music is a lot worse than the first game. Introducing more button complexity = doesn't mean fun. Man, really disappointed by the sequel. I didn't mind getting lost in the first game. But in the second game, it's too fustrating to continue playing. Stop at one of the crab level.

Always inherently enjoy Metroidvania games, though I didn’t find this as visually distinctive or smooth to play as its predecessor.
