Not enough improvement from first game. It feels like the same game, with a worse story.

Good:

- Its still scary.
- Some new weapons.

Bad:

- Relies mostly on jump scares and not, "What the f**k is that!?" scares.
- No co-op campaign like I thought there was.
- If you don't buy new, you have to pay $10 for multiplayer.
- The multiplayer is a button-mashing joke and should not have been included.
- The environment is nowhere near as immersive as the first game.
- Extremely over-the-top gore. Normally this is a good thing, but simply slitting your throat won't produce 5 liters of blood to be spewed from your neck in 10 seconds.
- Lacks the feeling of isolation that the first game had.
- Your character speaks, which puts the characters feelings into the game, which disallows you to create your own state of mind on the situation.
- Graphics didn't change at all.
- Hardly any new enemies at all.
- No new gameplay features.
- Lack of proper teaching of controls leaves you confused if you forgot the controls from the first game.
