I'm liking it. The new weapon almost reminds me of the trick weapons from Bloodborne except you can use both forms at the same time and the new enemies look really cool. I'm also enjoying the change in environments even if a forest isn't exactly the most unique setting. I do however love the destruction of the things like tree's and other parts of the environment during the battle.

Customizable character is a huge plus. I legitimately hated Lords of the Fallen but thought The Surge was a pretty good B-game.
Got the first game for free recently and I'm enjoying it. Definitely would have preferred to create my own character though, so I'm happy to see it will be possible in the sequel.
Hmmm if you are fighting mercs now that kinda changes the moral tone of your actions. Wonder how they will handle that?
Definitely looks a lot better than the first one already, also like the how the weapon can change forms on the fly as well.
My biggest complaint from the first game, preset character. Has been corrected for the second outing? So in! Day one.
I still don't get how they still haven't nailed movement in the slightest. It looks just as floaty to play as their other games.
Ooooh.. It seems that one of my top 10 GOTY for 2019 is locked already.
Why not both? :P
Have you played the first Surge? I've heard plenty of legit complaints, but I never found the game floaty. I'd actually have said the exact opposite, player movement feels very weighty and powerful.
Eh...Not entirely sure if I'm feeling it just yet. I'm pretty deep in the first one and my complaints are the lack of attack variety with different weapons, level design, and terrible enemy placement. This footage doesn't seem to have fixed my first issue, despite that being a new weapon. I'll have to wait to see more but I'll more than likely wait tell all the DLC is out (or maybe get it free again lol).
Pleasantly surprised by my time with The Surge on PS4 after scooping it gratis, so I'll definitely give this one a look. My hope is that Focus Home considers a lower price out of the gate - this is a $30 or $40 game in a FROM Software-dominated world.
They basically patched that out. Unless you're talking about modern surge, in which case it's really not that big of a deal. 1.0 it was a fucking nightmare tho >.>
Especially that last level god damn
God, I can't imagine trying to play the first one if they'd slowed down the dodging. It's hard enough of a game as it is.
Avoiding enemy attacks is a huge part of the game, so a responsive dodge is arguably the most critical combat ability in there.
The "suit" is an exoskeleton, not just some regular heavy metal armor. Exoskeletons are meant to enhance speed, strength, etc...
I really enjoyed the first one. Played through 3 NGs. I didnt even know they were making a second one.
Currently playing through the first and finished Lords of the Fallen recently, and my biggest complaint with both is most weapons not feeling fun to use. I'll be keeping my eye on improvements there.
I recently played through the first one and it's easily the most fun I've ever head in a Souls-like (then again I only played DS1 out of the "original" Souls games, so), and the first one I finished - and did so quite quickly, too. The sequel seems largely similar but improved in multiple areas: character creation, animations, attacks, environment destruction, etc.. I'm fine with that, personally.
Only just got the first one on sale for the 1X. It's nice to have a souls game in a different setting, plus once you get the combat right, it can be pretty satisfying but the game is clunky. Footage of S2 looks much smoother and combat looks more refined. Will keep an eye on it.
I hated that you felt weak af in the first game and how long fights lasted. Looks like that's back.
Agree, that's why i shed a tear for first person Cyberpunk instead of third person. Seeing all the flashy neon jackets on your char would have been nice. You are probably going to see them in cutscenes/dialog though since the devs say that they emphasize customization and appearance,
Had the same feeling but maybe adding camera shakes/ different sound effect would give the same effect
