That was absolutely amazing. TGAA2 is a culmination not just of the setup from the previous game, but from all of Shu Takumi's works. It resolves (pun not intended) every mystery set up by its prequel in a satisfying manner through a series of absolute banger cases, accompanied by a wonderful set of mechanics. I can confidently call it my favorite game in the series, as well as my favorite Shu Takumi game, period. I completely understand why, until recently, this was the highest rated standalone game on Backloggd.
