Diversity of weapon types, from sluggish hammers to quick and nimble blades
Combat centered around using Ichor and abilities more than just regular melee
Expansive open world map
Combat feels tuned with weapons having a proper weight and momentum compared to the first game

Limited opportunity to rewrite history
Overly aggressive enemy AI which uses raw power over actual tactics
Massive stretches of the open world without much of interest
Grinding to master every Blood Code if you're an achievement hunter
No co-op of any sort

The time travel system and moral choices make the story emotionally intense and original.
Post-apocalyptic setting and well-characterized characters
The Blood Codes, the Formae, and the variety of weapons offer deep strategic possibilities and make the gameplay challenging.

The Blood Codes, the Formae, and the variety of weapons offer deep strategic possibilities and make the gameplay challenging.
The absence of a mini-map (in the open world) and the management of verticality sometimes make exploration more complex than necessary.
Some enemies are reused in multiple areas, reducing the variety and surprise in battles.

Rich gameplay offering many possibilities
The character design is successful and the allies have an interesting background.
The gameplay loop is working well.
A restricted map but without empty areas
Several endings are waiting to be discovered, without having to replay the game multiple times.
Some choices can influence the game.
Rather pleasant to the eye
The pace of the game: dynamic and focusing on offense.

Still a slight lack of overall finishing
A little too many reused assets in our opinion
The side quests are few in number and not very interesting.
No NG+ or the possibility to complete exploration or ongoing quests after seeing the last ending.
As in all games of this genre, the camera can sometimes be temperamental.
