Neither better nor worse than the original game, but definitely different.
It went for more "realistic" gameplay, but this shift made the game rather frustrating at certain parts. Poor weapon handling coupled with hitscan enemies that never miss is a bit of a discouraging combo.
Luckily there is a mod called "Weapons Mod v5", which overhauls the gunplay and makes the game far more enjoyable.
The level design was quite strange, because most of the time it's pretty straight forward, but some of the later levels can test your patience, since it's very unclear where you should be going.
Despite the focus on realism, it still retains what made the first game so memorable, so there's still plenty of gory shootouts to be had here. Great fun when it all clicks together.
