The robots in Talos Principle 2 are more human than the humans they replaced.

This evolution is indicative, not only, of the game's direction, but also the heart of the story and unenviable task of trying to surpass your predecessor. By challenging that assertion, metaphorically, Talos Principle 2 is a game that shows how difficult it is to understand what made Talos Principle 1 a great game and how one might go beyond that success to create something even better. Contending with that problem is the crux and center of Talos Principle 2 when you consider the original game's unexpected success and cerebral machinations. In the end, the game will appeal to some, and possibly not others, but I take the position that the challenge and effort put into overcoming that challenge deserves recognition. Croteam have produced a fine sequel that will rattle your brain between puzzles and asking you 'What is the purpose of life'?

I hope this isn't the last we see of this excellent franchise.
