Compared to the first game in the series, this one is vastly superior. It now has more than one voice actor!
Okay, jokes aside, Hard West 2 takes everything that worked with the first game and refined it, and takes everything that was unbearable and either makes it better or cuts it out. The different posse members now feel unique with their special abilities and modifiers, the narrative slides don't leave you in fear of getting an annoying drawback or anything, the story isn't bogged down with too much grimdark, and ricocheting bullets is available to pretty much everyone (even the bad guys) and makes playing the game feel different to other tactical strategy games.
If you didn't like the first game, you'll like this one!
