There are more characters to get attached to, and to make the impact of your decisions more meaningful, there is a deeper story that manages to reference the original without sacrificing its own great storytelling, with multiple endings that encourage you th try again and explore new pathways.The soundtrack is genuinely exquisite, and there is nothing bad to say about it.
