I thought the original Budget Cuts not engaging me would have been reprimanded by the sequel, I was let down once again unfortunately. The mechanics of the original are improved in some interesting ways, but my opinion of Budget Cuts 2 reflects the original: unimpressed.
Budget Cuts 2 normally: "Hey, this game's pretty fun. It adds meaningful depth in areas that the previous game was lacking in, entirely new mechanics where they're needed, a mostly different setting, and a pretty damn good story. It's a great stealth game, it's a great world that I'm glad to see expanded, and I'm happy to see such a wonderful continuation to such an excellent IP! :D" Budget Cuts 2 with Adam...
