While the story may seem choppy in some places, I was personally on the edge of my seat throughout the entire game. The gameplay mechanics, suit customization, random side missions, and new transportation methods are all a huge step up from the first game. The boss fights as well were a key highlight of much of the game, but there is one issue with some of them that I have. That issue is that some of them are way too long with not enough differences between the phases. Sometimes I found myself, especially on the second-to-last major boss fight, dreading the thought of another phase because of how boring and irritating it was. And then the best boss fight of them all becomes so anticlimactic because of how easy it is and only has two phases. In my opinion, it's better than the first, but there were times where they tried shoving too much into the player's face!
