The user reviews looked pretty bad, but then the first one I read was literally a chud just complaining about "gay leftist agenda" in the game, which I'm more than happy with. But is the game itself actually mediocre compared to the first like people are saying?
I thought it was great. If you liked the first one I'm sure you'll like this one. If you haven't played the first one, start there because it's a really great game. I think they improved the mechanics in the second one. The story is better in the first but the second has the added benefit of pissing off chud gamers because they added LGBTQ characters. I don't know if it's the sequel I would have chosen for one of my favorite games but I still had a lot of fun playing it and was pretty engaged in the story despite its flaws.
