>>323672024
Level design was objectively worse. They came up with new playstyles, but weren't good enough to make the levels fit all of them like they did in HM1. Their answer to this was to force you into certain playstyles for certain levels, something the first game never did outside of two boss fights, an escape level, and a bonus mode in the story

What do you think of the spin-off that is coming out this year?
>redial-mod.com

Hotline Miami 2 was literally the same game as Hotline Miami 1

My only complaint was that there are too many windows

>Enemies are fast and can kill you quickly
ok cool
>Enemies with guns can nearly instantly kill you
dangerous, gotta approach them in a specific way
>Enemies with guns can instantly turn and shoot you, including from offscreen, with perfect accuracy which you dont have on pistols
uh
>Enemies with guns have a 200 degree field of vision with which to instant turn and shoot you
that's not cool
>Enemies with guns with said field of vision and instant death who don't move and cover all lines of sight when you only have a melee weapon
dropped

People wanted CQC and screamed "ME WANT SAME", but they got larger levels, so the game doesn't feel the same, now they scream "ME HATE DIFFERENT"

Does anyone have the picture
"good luck I am behind windows" ?

where the fuck is the finished level editor.

>I just defended something on the principle you complained about it!
Actual autism.

There is nothing wrong with hm2's linear style.

Absolutely nothing.

Choosing masks in hm1 barely made play style difference. Ethier that or they were forgettable.

Character variety>>>>>> masks

HM was great as on the fly you could figure out a level and tackle in in loads of different ways while going fast. This mixed with the sound track made an amazing atmosphere

HM2 ruined this with the focus on gunplay. You could deal with the bad AI in one as the game let you experiment, but in 2 you have to take it all slow so enemies being dumb fucks became boring. It encouraged people who played the first game super lame to keep doing that, it turned into neo peepo

>>323673086

corey is literally the most op fan if you know how to use her properly

>>323673086
Her play style is the closest to Jacket, second to Richter

Richter a best

>>323672328
How is getting killed by something offscreen a mistake? There's nothing you can do about it on your first play. A mistake implies you had control over your failure, but that's not the case here.

i'm not even arguing about HM2 here, this shit applies to other games as well. Being killed by something you simply can not predict or prepare for is not a mistake, it's trial and error. That's not good game design.

The only "flaw" is that it forces you to move quickly and not miss a shot or else you die.

HM2 was a worthy successor and isn't a bad game, but the first game is better.
HM2 was harder but for all the wrong reasons

Hm2 was bloodier, gorier, and the shooting was much more polished.

The level design is easier to get into than you think

He is right.
I played HM1 and HM2 like a month apart form each other and to my experience they both felt pretty much the same but HM2 was significantly better because of the hardmode. The game actually felt challenging for the first time in hardmode and you couldn't just breeze through the levels and I find it really hard to believe that people actually had problems with the normal mode. Are people really that bad?

>>323672382
Is this a new ebin meme?

>>323673562
It's easier once you understand that everyone comes to you faster than on Normal, except that there are more big henchmen

>>323673856
Yeah, that stopped things like >tfw, >mfw, kek from being fucking everywhere, right?

I think the difference between both games has to do more with playthroughs and expectations.

In Hotline Miami 1 you could go relatively fast through most of the levels, it felt more about reactions on the fly than learning the layout.
It had more "flow", per se, so you're going to enjoy the first playthrough more.

But in Hotline Miami 2, the difficulty is harder, and most of the process to beating it comes from learning the map layout.

That's why 2 has a better second playthrough in my opinion, when you already know most of the levels and it's more about comboing the fuck out of them than beating them

>>323673990

do you really think letting someone know it upsets you is going to help though?

If I was shitposting and just throwing "cuck cuck cuck" around everywhere, seeing people say it was annoying would just fuel me further. Think, anon.

Some levels were absolute travesties due to glass, off screen bullshit and a lot of the stages just going on way too long. There was also issues with the story being almost written as a fuck you to people who liked the first game. I think it's perfectly reasonable to dislike the game based on these things.

Before you call me an autistic nigger for getting all the achievements in a game I hate, I still enjoyed the game - the gameplay felt a lot tighter than HM1, it's just a shame the level design was fucking atrocious at times.

Second game was awesome, just improved upon everything from the first game, however it took me over an hour to beat the last level on HM2 first time playing through it.

The only decent theme in existence.

>>323674705
of course not, but the solution is still stupid. You literally have to poke your head out so the guy will come over while you wait for him around a corner. It's stupid and slows the game down a lot, and is really indicative of how the rest of the game plays out.

You don't have to necessarily wait around a corner if you do it the midst of killing everyone and in the cases where theres no other way it really doesn't take that much for the guy to come.

Am I saying it's a good thing? No, but it isn't as bad as some people make it out to be.

>>323672024
Most of the people complaining about getting shot offscreen probably didn't know there was a zoom function

>>323675041
This is why tony is the worst fan. He literally slows down the game because he can't respond to guns as well. It's also why Corey is probably the best fan. Simple movements, a free damage dodge and the ability to shoot enemies.
