Basically everything the first one did but even better. The game gives you more tools to play non-lethal than the first one did and that's a very welcome change with DH1 being a bit too high chaos oriented.
It's a really cool thing that they gave Emily complete different powers from Corvo and still managing the game to be beat with the character you chose. Each one has his particularity, Emily is more about tricking your ennemies and Corvo about easy run away.
Like I said, it's a big improvement of the first game that was already great. You can feel they pour all of their love in the level design when you see levels like the Manor or the Palace.
For the story it's like the first game, being straight to the point even though there is more memorable characters than the first one.
The graphics upgrade is also very impressive, reusing the art directory of the first game but adding a lot of lights effect made the game being more beautiful than a lot of 2024 games.
I you liked the first one you HAVE to play it and if you didn't I would still recommend it because of how big of an upgrade it is.
