This sequel was shorter than the first one and had more technical issues too, I don't know what happened in the development of these Remastered versions but things are rough.

There weren't any significant changes in combat between this one and the first game. They did introduce new plasmids which I largely ignored since the same ones from the previous game were enough to get through and finish the game.

They also introduced new enemies such as the Brute and Big Sisters, both of which were massive bullet sponges and were annoying to deal with.

The story wasn't as good as the original game in my opinion, but it had a decent enough plot that kept my attention until the ending.

You can clearly see the developers wrote themselves into a corner, narratively speaking, which is a shame because I feel like Rapture had way more potential for future stories.

I feel like playing the original version of the game would be better than actually playing this remastered version. It's just plagued with technical issues and constant crashes that are not worth the hassle.
