The cast is a downgrade from the first game. Music is also a letdown. Nagito is really cool, everything pertaining to him rocks.
Everything else feels like bloat. so many side games and minigames feel annoying to play. The post game hang-out mode is back from the first game. No thanks. Finished the Umami monobeast minigame to completion and didn't see any reward. Why is this here?
Ending stretch is verrrry silly, verrrry exhausting. I didn't hate it, but wasn't impressed either. I liked makoto better as a protagonist overall, but hajime's final moments were pretty cool.

I truly think every character in this game sucks. Huge downgrade from the original game where the characters at least had tangible relationships with each other. In this game the characters merely stand in the same room and shout one-liners at each other, rendering an emotional impact from character deaths and plot revelations totally empty. Only reason I'd score it this high is because the mysteries are still more or less fun to figure out.
