Liked the first one but as soon as Xbox Studios acquired the original studio behind this I lost any notion the sequel would be good. This one sucks hard. Uninstalled this hold the left stick forward simulator after 2 hours. Completely agree with the tech demo sentiment - they learned and improved upon nothing other than the graphics. I'd argue they made the puzzles and combat worse somehow. Make a damn movie if you want to make a movie. I like walking sims but at some point a game has to be a game. Give this some more combat flexibility, unique explorable environments, some collectibles or choice or player agency of any kind, something to look for besides the same junk from the first, and they may have been on to something, but this fell far short for us.
