not a big fan of the bonus system, and the hitbox really bugged me, but overall I love the aesthetic, enemy design, the power shot, and music.

It's fun, it's funny, and an overall improvement over the first one. In my childhood I only really played the 3rd one so I wanted to go back and experience the original trilogy, but if this is peak (according to comments and videos I've seen), that's enough for me.

1cc super easy mode.

I love these games but I suck at them, it is part of the fun I guess. As of now this is my favorite DDP.
