THIS IS GOOD!

AI: The Somnium Files was one of the few games that made me almost touch the ground with my jaw and left my head burning wild. I thought nirvanA Initiative was gonna be good too, but hoo boy, i was not expecting that.

How can someone write this many amazing characters and still do it again? They are made to seen like a anime cliche and boom in your face with spectacular development.

The somniums are far better, far more options. I think there is a bit too much of them to uncover some basic things, but who cares, MORE SOMNIUMS! The new VR Investigation is a great addition, even if they were a little too simple and straight forward.

On the first game, the biggest point for me was Date and Aiba relationship, and now i have 2 of these, Ryuki and Tama, and Mizuki and Aiba. Different types of interactions, but amazing both.

And the plot? Haha, get out of here if you want to read my impressions of the plot. Just like the first game, play blind. You have been warned.

Kinda shame the game reutilizes a lot of things like locations and soundtrack from the first, but it doesn't bother so i let it pass (menu theme is so good). And the combat scenes this time are better, still has issues, but is far better. I am starting to think this is part of the charm of the game.

What can i say more of this game besides one of the best gems i found recently in gaming? I don't know if is gonna have a third title or not, but i will be there to play and be mind blown again.
