Once you figure out the mechanics the puzzles are a breeze to solve,
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.

However,its story is special and its music relaxing (even tho I too bought it to relax ; and its controls/cam had the opposing effect on me) so you should do your research and think about whether you are the type of person that does not care about games' (many!) technical issues and can love one either way.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 129 sampled reviews raised it
It works completely fine: No stuttering, visuals are still wonderful, and the mechanics/controls are slightly updated.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
4 of 129 sampled reviews raised it
Although this game suffers from the same framerate problem (everything speeds up if the FPS goes over 60, which means that it has to be locked to 60 artificially if your monitor is over 60 Hz), it's otherwise a notable improvement on the previous game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
4 of 129 sampled reviews raised it
Lost Winds had always been an artistically beautiful game with a fantastic premise, great soundtrack and creative story and world.
