had to backlog this one for a while. its a solid game, same good exploration from previous one. its the kind of game that makes you want to explore every nook and cranny looking for materials and stuff to optimize your survival experience as much as possible but at the same time it gives me weird motion sickness after an hour of playtime. i dont remember getting this when i played the first game before. in any case, i'll revisit this one later.
