    played it after finishing the first one back to back, the mask swap missions hit different at 2am

    NoémiRex

    Le coup du mask swap à deux heures du matin, moi c'était plutôt vers minuit, sur le canapé de mon frère...

  2. SaveByte40

    Every duel it loses to the first one and honestly at this point I just shrug and move on.

  3. BossDragon2

    Only put a few hours in, felt way messier than the first one.

  4. GlitchBard3

    Side by side with the first Hotline Miami, this one asks a lot more patience before it clicks.

    IronPilot

    I felt that exact patience thing on my first run too, took me way longer to click with it than the original, anyone else had that gap?

  5. Adelbert_90

    The original still has the tighter level design, this one leans into chaos more than precision imo.

    My roommate watched me play this one silently the whole time (unlike the first, she talked nonstop).

    J'y ai joué juste après le premier, le week-end où j'ai déménagé, souvenir bizarre.

    Leo_91

    El original sigue ganando la mayoría de los duelos, y con razón, este se apoya en esa sombra todo el tiempo.

    CritByte

    Rejoué récemment sans nostalgie et le level design du premier reste plus net, celui-ci se disperse...

    mbarre

    Le premier reste plus serré, plus lisible, et franchement ce classement continue de le placer au-dessus pour de bonnes raisons, ce n'est pas du hasard.

    CoopRider14

    Comparé au premier, celui-ci demande plus de patience mais offre aussi plus d'angles différents pour aborder chaque niveau, ça se discute des deux côtés.

    Gamboa25

    Yo tambien lo jugué justo después del primero y la verdad se sintio mucho mas denso, quizas por eso cuesta tanto entrar.

    QuestPhoenix

    Well, tighter but colder too, the first had more soul honestly.
