I really wanted to say this game is very good, but compared to the first one, it is a huge downgrade.
Hotline Miami was a tactical game, you had to plan your actions through trial and error in order to get the perfect run, while Hotline Miami 2 requires you to rely purely on reflex.
I may pick up this game sometime in the future for completion sake, but I can't say I had a lot of fun with it compared to Hotline Miami

Banger soundtrack and gameplay, the story is a bit confusing due to the constant timeline changing.
There's some bs sections that are very frustrating, you can get shot by an enemy that's offscreen but overall the level design is pretty solid.
Would like to see a sequel or another game similar to this!

Ok so I know it's not as controversial an opinion anymore, but I prefer Hotline Miami 2 to the first game. It's probably my favourite game ever, honestly. I love the more sober tone compared to the first game, the extra characters makes it feel more sprawling and like this is happening in an actual world and not just some rooms floating in a neon void. The music is somehow even better this time around, and I just like a bunch of the new aesthetic flourishes, like the UI.
