Incredible. First game was obviously a very hard act to follow, but they pulled it off beautifully, overlooking no details. The emotional core of the story emerges through (fun!) gameplay, not heavy-handed scripting, which makes the game super immersive, and helps it to deliver powerful messages about coming of age, revenge and redemption. It's thought-provoking and disturbing, while still managing to be thrilling and action-packed. I just want to spend more time in this world.
