    a more disappointing sequel than The Last of Us 2. I'm not even sure where to start, but Mason Lindroth practically took everything that made Hylics 1 incredibly good and threw it all out of the window.

    Hylics 2 is a weak JRPG that fails to build on the strength of its precursor. Hylics 2 is significantly more complex than Hylics but virtually none of this added complexity improves upon the original.

    Hylics 2 does not understand what it is and stretches itself too thin attempting to branch into JRPG combat, isometric and 2d platforming and first person "Grimrock style" exploration.

    Hylics 2 does not understand what it is and stretches itself too thin attempting to branch into JRPG combat, isometric and 2d platforming and first person "Grimrock style" exploration. Hylics 2 does none of these gameplay styles well and should have focused on really polishing the foundation the original Hylics Set.

    Hylics 2 features improved art and narrative but an overall weaker soundtrack.

    I am unable to recommend Hylics 2 even to those allured by its art style.
