Utterly miserable, all the writing doubles down on everything that was shit from the first and any note of something interesting has been eradicated, the first game struggled with not talking about vapid bullshit metatext when what it had going for it regularly was quite interesting and thought-provoking, and now it's just been boiled down to obnoxious "HOLY FREAKIN COW EVERYTHING IS FREAKIN SCARRRYYY MY MOM IS LIKE A DEMOONNN"
Whereas the first one lead me on something interesting and then let me down, I could barely stomach 10 minutes with such a fucking horrible opening, just low-fi beats to study to bullshit for people who beat off to one or multiple of things like psychological horror, mental illness and "failgirls"

This is one of the few times I genuinely feel like I have had the reverse of what I usually expect to feel from art, I don't feel like I've grown, I feel like my perspective on the world has been reduced, I can only hope this was made to cash in on the people who went "OMG SO RELATABLE" to the first game.
