This was a fun, short, and compelling experience. I only played the arcade section, but this would be a blast with other people. I can see myself screaming at my friends because they stabbed me in the balls for the 70th time. Unfortunately, there wasn't anyone in the matchmaking, and it's only two players.
We all know that graphics don't make or break a game.
That said, when I first saw the imagery of Nidhogg 2, I was disgusted. It looked grotesque to an extreme degree and something about it really disinterested me. Perhaps because the minimalistic style of the first one was so flavorful, and seeing the opposite in the sequel didn't sit right.
With THAT said, once I played it, my complaint was out the window. It's a ton of fun. Not too dissimilar from the first, but now you have new weapon types and new maps. It's great.
