Someone's cutting onions in here.

In all seriousness, what an incredible follow-up to the first game. The writing was even better than the first game, and having more of The Belt to explore was awesome! Loved every one of the cameos from the first game, as well. Good to know The Eye survived and is protected. Let's hope my first Sleeper is keeping up with the mushroom run for Stabilizers.

Thank you for the unbelievable gift of this story.

Besides some rude puzzles so far (The Quantum computer puzzle is incredibly esoteric, had to look up how to do it due to next to zero visual cues on what you're supposed to pay attention to), it's a very fun game. Combat and puzzle solving both feel really great when the parts click together.

Enjoy getting merc'd by drones and robot dogs.

Edit:

Now that I've played through it, I can say that I really enjoyed the first and last thirds of this game. The combat was fun, the puzzles (though challenging or esoteric sometimes) were wonderful. Especially loved the reactor bit, and last encounter. That ruled. The scoring throughout, as well, was fantastic. A+ on the music. The sound design was superb.

I have to take issue with pretty much the entire Terra Labs section, though. Enemies that single-hit kill you is an addition this game really did not need to keep the tension going, and introducing two of them in the same section felt incredibly bad for a latter-game difficulty spike. I could see them still posing quite a threat even if you let them hit you twice.

All in all, I really did enjoy my time with this game, even if it was frustrating sometimes. The atmosphere, setting, sound design and story it tells are all superb (I'm reminded of SHODAN in a lot of parts).

Solid 8.5/10 for me, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a cool experience with a buddy/partner over a weekend (as long as you don't mind doing a little salt mining).

Very fun, interesting mechanics. Sometimes a little mean with the cards your dealt, but hey, sometimes that's just how it is. 10/10

Justice's level ruined my arrow keys. 10/10, best demon grils eating pancakes.

Played it on Battle.net after a friend of mine convinced me to get it, and have loved it from day one. The quests can get a little grindy, but the rewards are usually always worth the effort. The light level grind is probably the hardest thing to keep up with, but honestly... if you keep up with your competitive stuff, or work on getting powerful gear from weekly missions, that's really not all that bad either. The graphics are lovely, the story is very well written, and I can't recommend it enough.

Have played several rounds now, but unfortunately, feral dogs keep giving me sepsis, and I die a slow and painful death in drawn out dog battles with glass shivs.

10/10, would reccomend.

Love this game, especially the worldgen.
