Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It's nicely and subtly written, and Kathy quickly becomes a more believable and complex character than before, with a genuinely emotional ending that truly leaves me wanting more of these characters.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The production values are high, with incredibly beautiful pixel graphics, good actors and great soundtrack, topping the already good prequel, but it's in the gameplay that it really separates itself from its predecessor.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Day 2 had like 5-7 locations that you could go to, 15 things in your notebook, bunch of unused items in your inventory that could be useful later on, and so much info drop in your head, that wasn't even in it, since I'm pretty sure I forgot 90% of it.
