A pretty good follow-up to the original. The parkour has been refined to remove some of the cheese you could do in the original. Traveling at night can feel more dangerous at the start of the game, but as time progresses, it becomes less of an issue, thanks to equipment and items, especially if you're exploring dark zones. It's a shame that volatiles are not present on the map at night, except in chases, as that added some tenseness to the original game that is missing here.

There are some good choice options here that do affect the ending or outcomes in the game. However, the Survivors vs. Peacekeepers bit felt a bit muted, as I didn't really feel like giving resources to either faction was helpful outside of some niche benefits. Peacekeepers focusing on weapons and traps, whereas Survivors focus on traversal, which mostly become useless when the paraglider becomes available, and a revive.

There are also a number of audio and graphical glitches in this game. Sound will sometimes create this very audible and very annoying buzzing noise that will be all you can hear. As well as this, there are times where character models freeze or don't load properly. Cutscenes can also just freeze the image, but continue the audio.

Good game, but needed some more QA time.
