Just a few days ago I was praising the first game for not trying to be more than it was, and so this sequel comes and do exactly that, and did it very hard.
While the graphics are still superb, one of the best in the industry, in my opinion, and the animations are great, maybe even better and more fluid than the previous one, the story sucks... suck hard... and in the bad sense.
It's like no thought was done on this game. He wanted to change, to add stuff, to include plot twists, and it failed miserably in every single thing.
It's plothole after the other, one unbelievable thing after the other, and when you thought it couldn't get worse, it goes an does it again.
I will put the details I can remember now on the spoiler.
Nothing makes sense in this story.
And as a final nail in the coffin, I had praised that Rank up button in the first game, it allowed the player to only advance once he sees all the possible dialog changes the slave have before rank up and change those. it's gone now for the Queen. You even have a time limit, that determines which ending you get.
Is it still worth playing? Yes, the graphics are still great, and the animations good, but don't expect anything good from the story.
