Although I enjoyed and completed the first Guacamelee, I wasn't blown away by it. The sequel has the same gorgeous aesthetic, simplified metroidvania level design, and unhealthy fixation with combos. I'm just not craving "more Guacamelee" any more now than I was when I finished the first one. I understand why these games get a lot of praise, but I guess they aren't for me. Stopped after the introduction of undodgeable attacks where the hookshot ability starts to show its inadequacies.
