    While it doesn't do anything new in terms of narrative direction, it somehow gets the foundations that made the first game so fun and makes them even more enjoyable, this time adding a level of depth that makes players feel important. It thrusts people into the heart and soul of the franchise, making it one of the best anime games this gaming generation has to offer.

    Rarely have I ever played a JRPG that was so faithful to the source material you felt like watching an anime with brief moments of gameplay. You get to relive the same epic story that has yet to be finished, but this time you see it from the point of view of someone who was actually there, and not just a spectator. As such, if you’re a hardcore Attack on Titan fan, or you want to play something that will ease your introduction into the series, then I recommend Attack on Titan 2 wholeheartedly.

    That energetic feeling in the first game of swinging around buildings and taking out Titans with a well-placed strike is still incredibly satisfying. Complemented by a solid PC port, and you have yet another highly entertaining licensed product by Omega Force well worth checking out. This is how a sequel should be treated.

    Even though the game represents a standard Omega Force half-asset flip of their own first Attack on Titan game, it still delivers enough of new things. With plenty of options regarding your own character, the RPG-lite elements, and the way the player can interact and make bonds with other NPC characters makes it so this could be considered a fine continuation of the series. If you wanted to enjoy the story and characters from the AoT universe from your perspective as a unique character then this is a good option for you, just watch out for the abysmal camera and somewhat iffy movement controls.

    AOT 2 is a decent sequel with solid gameplay, and of course it's a great feast to anime fans. However, dealing with relationships with your companions is tedious and somewhat stupid.

    Attack on Titan is a fun hack-and-slash that well represents the Attack on Titan franchise.

    +10 because every game could be a 10

    The general consensus about this game seemed to be that it is more of the same, up to the point where there is no real reason to put a 2 in the name. And I was just in the mood for more of the same, so

    -1 because it certainly wasn't. I had a great time with mouse and keyboard controls the first time around, while even with assistance I found myself stumbling and bumbling through the levels...

    -1 exactly the same levels, with exactly the same story, BUT: a new character. Me. And this is definitely not my story, I actually don't have a story except that I have a diary which only shows: Yes, I have absolutely no life to speak of, except for being a soldier and trying to impress people from the manga and anime. For example by going places and then

    -2 watching cutscenes in the middle of a battle. From the first game. That most of the time have nothing to do w0ith anything I was doing there. It's like having sex, and at some arbitrary point your partner shoves you off the bed and watches an old videotape with a badly aged porno.

    +1 Well, at the very least it shows that they've worked successfully on the overall presentation. But unfortunately

    -1 not on the in-game-menus. They are still multi-layered, obtuse things that you have to shake and mangle to spit out the information you are actually looking for, or achieve the thing you want to do, like selling or crafting, with half a dozen UI-designs, and each one is terrible.

    -0.5 while the levels look better, they still have all the detail and especially the destruction physics from two console generations ago. It has gone from retro-charme to feeling awfully dated by now.

    -2 missions are pure chaos, and unfortunately mostly because of design failures. Tutorial windows pop in hours into the game, hints lurk on the screen, fighting for your attention with subtitles that try to keep up with all the screaming around you, missions and icons are all over the place, and each enemy is showered in circles and targets and symbols and arrows. And over that you have other soldiers dialogue, smoke signals, building points and spawn points and recharge points and a small, overcrowded minimap with another heap of information, and just when you are getting into the rythm and are halfway oriented, you can bet that one of the aforementioned cutscenes kicks in.

    I have watched the first two seasons of the anime, and I played the first game. I should know what's going on, and I had to look up stuff because the narration is a disaster. If you haven't had any contact with this franchise, go and buy the first game, or you will have no idea what is happening half of the time. It slaughters the pacing and perspective while trying really hard to pretend that your charater matters, but how could she - or he? The whole storymode felt like an ongoing tutorial, and at the same time like joining a multiplayer game where you are just one of 60 people that have never met and will never see each other again.

    Overall pretty much everything about this was a terrible idea trying to suck as much money out of the fandom as possible, running after every trend and every hot thing in gaming back then and drowning in bad design choices because of it. It kills a great story while doing so, and slightly better visuals make it somehow worse since they feel wasted on this mess.

    -0.5 it also crashes regularly for no reason, sometimes repeatedly, and since this is not a new game, it will never be fixed, so again: If you want a game like this, buy the first one.

    For those wondering why this game has such a negative review, it's because it's not truly "Attack on Titan 2," but rather, "Attack on TitanFor those wondering why this game has such a negative review, it's because it's not truly "Attack on Titan 2," but rather, "Attack on Titan Remastered," and should've really been named and marketed as such. The game, while done from the perspective of a custom character, covers the same missions as the first game, and even goes as far as to reuse the same cutscenes. While the game has a stronger combat design and a refined visual appearance, it is at heart 80% the same as the first game. Those who have played the first game need not purchase. Expand
