the story was still just as good as the first game if not better in some moments with a pretty big plot twist at the end of the game and ending you probably wouldn't have expected.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound design is also excellent...like genuinely some of the best work I’ve heard in horror games, which is a high praise, since the genre is well known for excelling in that precise department.
