I backed this game, waited the many long years for it to come out and I'm glad I did. It is every bit as enjoyable as the first one. You can tell they poured a lot of care and thought into this game. The story picks up where the middle VR game left off. While it's nice to have the history to fully enjoy the story, you can get by without it or by just reading a summarization. The controls feel more fluid and polished. The world has the same warm feel as the first one with great characters, environmental story telling and lots of humor. If you liked the first one, you will like this one. I love it.
