INTRO - 12-09-2024. I have been checking out the PC port on Steam of Deadly Premonition 2. Since it's a sequel, it does not as seem ground-breaking as OG Deadly Premonition - but it's absolutely just as bananas, zany, crazy, out there, bonkers, funny, hilarious, and often got me laughing out loud. I'm having a blast some 3.6 hours into this so far, according to Steam - and I haven't even done a ton of stuff yet. Tons of exposition, dialogue, banter, and solid writing - hard to complain, when this stuff is that good. TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE ON THE PC. I can't speak for the often-reported to be a mess version of this game on Switch - but the PC version is fantastic on the technical stuff. No crashes, no slow-downs, nothing here - as this game on both my RTX 3070-based desktop and RTX 3060-based laptop run at 60fps no problem. It should, TBH...since it doesn't look spectacular in the technical dept. - and of course, not that it needs to. It also had some cel-shaded type of filter on it; not super-much though. It's still enough to give it a unique look and go for the artistic side a bit here w/ the bit of cel-shaded filter, as this game looks like it was built for the Switch and not the newer generations of systems (i.e. PS4 and newer PS5 era of systems). If only OG Deadly Premonition 1: Director's Cut PC port ran this great on the technical side. DOUBLE TIMELINES. So, you play as Aaliyah in the current timeframe, investigating & interrogating a much older Francis "York" Morgan about some murders in Boston. In the older story some 14 years earlier that Morgan's telling her, you'll play as Francis "York" Morgan. I assume, these two stories might connect in some way, at some point in time & in these stories. When playing as Morgan, you'll investigate the "small" Le Carre portion of New Orleans and talk to interesting characters & interrogate some of them. Also, you comb through some murder scenes for evidence to try to piece things together on what happened and try to figure out who did these murders & why. FRANCIS MORGAN'S PRO SKATER. You won't be getting around in a car, as his car's been stolen - but hilariously and in a cool manner, he's learned to take up skateboarding & can skateboard around the open world. Skateboarding is so much cooler and a lot more fun than going around in a car, if you ask me - and feels so fitting for the kind of bonkers-ness, comedy, madness, and whatnot this game has going on. And, you can even learn a few cool tricks skateboarding moves & tricks here, too. CONTROLLERS ONLY. So, you have literally zero support in-game here for KB/mouse. "Out-the-box" here, it's gamepad or bust - and it all controls fine and much less jank here compared to the OG Deadly Premonition game. Combat w/ the gun here feels more like something out of say Resident Evil 4 (UHD version) or something like that, when you have a gamepad - so it feels good with a PC gamepad like the F310. And also, getting around via the skateboard via the gamepad is just flat-out fun and cool. GAMEPLAY. I've been going around the game-world, skateboarding, finding things, doing quests - yet, really ain't run into much combat yet. Even some 3.6 hours in, I haven't run into much combat. The 1st hour of so felt like it was loaded with lots of development of plot, story, character, dialogue, Lore, and all of that good stuff - and thankfully, since it's all so well done, it didn't weigh much on me. Some of the investigation of murder scenes & crime scenes has been fun and also so was the interrogation of suspects - but, I'd like to see more shooting combat & see how combat holds up. It also looks like you can even throw punches and fists, too - when you're not aiming down a gun and hit the top right-button (Right Trigger on F310). And I've only say shot at some boxes with a gun which felt like a tutorial thing & shot at some meat in a warehouse to alert an oblivious dude that I was here & showed-up. OUTRO...FOR NOW. So far, the game's been what I've always wanted technically & performance-wise out of a Deadly Premonition game and also more Deadly Premonition madness. So far, having a blast and really enjoying this - and I hope this one doesn't fall apart. More to come, eventually. ADDENDUM - 01-15-2025: So I recently finished this one, after some 25.5 hours with it (according to Steam). For the most part, the game was great. When it comes to the story, characters & plot - well, all of that stuff was great. And of course, York is constantly making references to all kinds of films and TV shows too, which is great for fans of this stuff...like myself - yes, just like he did in the original. The survival-horror portions where there was combat - think like say similar to say Old Resident Evil 4 type of survival-horror combat here - were much improved and fine, especially compared to the OG Deadly Premonition and weren't anywhere as jank this go around. Though, b/c Deadly Premonition 2 is a sequel to the original - well, it doesn't always have the magic & fresh-ness that came along with the original game. I surely didn't tackle all of the side-quests and mini-games, as the game does have a good deal of all of these, so fans can live in this game-world & get immersed into this unique & bonkers game...and its world. When it's all said and done, I loved Deadly Premonition 2 (Steam-version for PC). While it might not live up to the original's fresh-ness and madness in certain ways, this is a great sequel and this go around here is an insanely majorly improved PC port here that runs close to flawless here. This is a great sequel to the original and I'm absolutely glad this exists, since this is a great follow-up to the original. Easy recommendation to any fan of the original Deadly Premonition and also those into great stories, plots, and eccentric characters. Now...if only we could get a perfect PC port and Remaster of the original Deadly Premonition 1: Director's Cut one day.

While not as good as the first game, Deadly Premonition 2 is still a really good game. The biggest draw back is just how tedious this game can be. Some of the fetch quests go on for way too long and have some ridiculous requirements to complete. Worst part is, they are part of the main story and can't be skipped. These will really test your patience, but my advice is to stick through it because the ending makes it all worth while.

Whats that my fairy.. I love the original game and I did enjoy my time in this game. I loved the characters and the setting. Not as good as the first game but a solid and fun adventure none the less.

Enjoyable if you're a fan of the series. Entertaining story and characters with great voice acting. The PC version is stable and runs well when compared to the Switch version. The main quest is interesting at times, but the pacing is terrible due to padding with fetch quests and escorts. The side elements and most game play systems feel rushed or unfinished. However most side elements and systems can be ultimately ignored, allowing you to just comfortably play through the main quest. Masochistic collectors or 100% achievement hunters will actually find a lot to do in this game if they want to engage in the side elements. The best parts of the game are when it just focuses on story telling. I feel like this game would have been much better if they just went with a simple point and click adventure style instead. An even more half baked open world game was definitely not the way to go. Buy on a discount.
