The game seems better than the first. It’s lighter in terms of story and mood, and the drone / RC car make the game more fun to experiment different play style.

Story: average plot but the characters were fun and quirky. There were some moments where a character says something like “Hackers love a challenge”. But he wasn’t trying to be funny, and comes of cringe.

Gameplay: between the drone, RC car and the main character, it was confusing to know what to use to hack. For example, the drone can hack somethings but not all. For physical hacks, the drone can’t do it (RC car or Marcus can). Sometimes, even the RC car can’t hack (for cutscene reasons) and Marcus has to go there himself. The problem is that the game doesn’t tell you always when Marcus is required to be there or not, so sometimes all that sneaking around in the RC car means nothing.

Also, Ubisoft did a good job mapping out SF and the surrounding areas. I’m glad I could fast travel anywhere on the map, right from the start. Some of the main quests / side quests were really fun.
