When the game was first released it was in incredibly rough shape, i knew this beforehand that it most likely would be like this so i waited a year and half before buying the game (same with my friends) I'm glad Techland cares about the game though because all of these updates they put into the game improved things so much especially that recent firearms update.

GRAPHICS: The same or slightly better than the first game, with the new LUT update the game can feel morelike DL1 somewhat.

STORY: Techland wanted to focus bigger on the story aspect, Story is interesting but im not going "oh this is incredible!" at the same time, reading the file pickups for the lore can give you more insight on things.

GAMEPLAY: Parkour is so much better than the first game, melee has been improved and adding guns back in was a highly requested thing by the community, coop is so much fun to play with friends as well. Villedor and Central loop maps are even bigger than the first game combined which is a plus.

SOUND: The sound design and music is very good, however in my personal opinion the music is not as memorable as the first games especially with its 80's zombie film style music and dark bleak atmosphere (DL2 went with an opposite approach)

CONTENT: We're at the epilogue and we still haven't finished all the side-quests and activities, the game is packed with a lot of content you can do like the first game.

If i had one gripe they really need to fix the teleporting Volatiles inside buildings and some smaller issues, otherwise DL2 is a lot of fun.
