Played it, beat it in 20 hours (still have some stuff to do, but it's basically worthless busywork) in the hardest difficulty available on a new game (permadeath difficulty is unlocked after beating it an I ain' tryin' that). Enjoyable game, overall. More cutscenes than I would've liked. Story is incredibly B-level, which I appreciate (even if I can see why some people don't). Nice character beats, the base you have feels lived in (much like the first one).

Weapon variety is hit and miss (with the Laserkraftwek basically being the best overall gun). On the hardest difficulty stealth sections could be done if you flarked up, but it was hard. On easier difficulties it would probably be a piece of cake. Not a lot of enemy variety, and very few new enemies. The contraptions are ok but not game changing.

Solid 8/10. I'd recommend waiting for a sale. Also it isn't very well optimised, as far as I could tell. Suffers from some glitches (most notably one that messes up the fonts) but I didn't run into anything gamebreaking.
