This game is solid, but a few aspects keep me from really enjoying it to its fullest. First off, the game sort of throws continuity with a character into the trash right away, regardless of whether or not you've played the first game. It's a pretty lazy change that is pretty distracting until you get used to it. I also wasn't a huge fan of one of the protagonists in the game. You spend the first half of the game with them, but I just don't really like them at all, really. And lastly, I think that the game's ending was a pretty huge cop-out and reeks of Saturday morning-level shenanigans.

Despite my gripes though, I still had a fun time. The new characters were great, there were some creative somniums this time around, and the game has a pretty unique twist. I liked it!
