An absolute improvement over the first one in basically every aspect. They improved the controls and have analog support, the story is more coherent, cohesive, and provides substantial world lore, the ost and world overall feels more alive and varied.
Of course, there's still occasional jank that stems from it being a PS1 3D platformer, and the water dungeon wasn't exactly fun.
Fun overall, definitely worth playing.


Also get him off the moon.
