Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
145 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Everything is leaps and bounds better: story, pacing, character gameplay, level design, enemies, graphics, art diversity, world expansion, and voice acting.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
124 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Characters are more refined and a new character that's fun and fits the gameplay well.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
94 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A lovely artstyle overhaul, and the music is honestly even better than the already great OST of FP1.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
60 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is smoother, with a new guard ability adding more depth at the same time.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Despite their differences in playstyle, each of the four playable characters can build up a fast speed that remains controllable thanks to the combination of view space, tight controls, the dodge move that gives brief invulnerability frames, and a lack of instant kill traps and death pits that you would constantly find in the Sonic games.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay is rather good, the story is garbage, and the visuals are pretty good.
