Somethings I like more, some things I like in comparison to NMH1. I think combat is overall better, but ecstasy guage is too easy to get and kinda wipes the floor with most of the game, and I never found like I got a boss fight that really needed me to use my full kit like Henry did (though i appreciate bosses not having a brickshit ton of health like NMH1)
I like that the story is more... there and an actual story with progression, but a couple of boss assassins in this game really get sidelined and it sucks, because the assassins who do get their piece in this game I like a lot. It doesn't have to be a lot but characters like Margaret just being there going Hey Whats Up Lets Fight and then you kill her and move it feels like such a missed opportunity when u think about the NMH1 assassins.
The between fights stuff is fine, I kinda miss the overworld but I also don't think I miss actually driving a mile between the places so whatever.
It's a flawed but cool game, but thats the mood of suda51 games isn't it?

Oh yeah, switch port is great. I got frame drops (particularly in the overworld in NMH1) but this game is smooth sailing all the way through.
