I love the original Hotline Miami. It played well. This one doesn't. Be prepared for enemies leaping through walls (dogs and crazy inmates) and getting shot from off screen. The base gameplay is pretty solid but more buggy than the original. Much higher reliance on firearms when compared to the original. There are more enemies armed with firearms, and they shoot when you are in their field of view, which unfortunately is bigger than yours, even when you shift your view... Be prepared for much more frustration than Hotline Miami 1, more often than from unfair deaths. Conclusion, play the first one, again, unless you really really really need more levels.
