The game looks fine IMO. I feel the shooting parts will be a lot better (shooting was never Starbreeze's strong point) but the story won't be as good. The reason I loved the original was for the amazing story. They made you really care about Jenny. I feel the sequel will be a lot more fun to play, but more forgettable story-wise.
Oh, and yeah, Nolan North is the only reason I question whether I will buy it day one. There was no reason to get rid of the original voice actor. Just glad Mike Patton is back.
One of the best bits in the first was the graphics imo. I'm
not a graphics fanboy, but I fell in love with them. Perfect blend of real and grittyness and awesome lighting. It was very nice.
Guns were hit and miss, but the darkness power made up for it.
But yeah there was no reason to recast the Jackie, but yeah I'm also super happy Mike Patton is back too.
Yes the story does look shit in the second one. The baddie isn't one from the comic, it's one made up for the game with a lame motivation. I don't want that. I also think the story in the first was awesome, and yeah I did care about both Jackie and Jenny deeply.
