Yeah, I have to agree. Parrying adds a level of difficulty/risk/skill that I was hoping would be there. Still could be lots of fun of course, but disappointing.

Even with all the jank, the terrible combat, etc....I loved the first game. It had such a great atmosphere to me. I really want this second game to succeed, but I hope it focuses on that vibe first and foremost.

I picked it up to start to get into multiplayer but have found myself spending more time in the singleplayer World Tour so far. The amount of hilariousness I run into with my custom character who looks totally out of place for the cutscenes, master poses, and the like is almost worth the amount of admission on its own.

I remember playing this and thinking the idea was cool and I liked the atmosphere, but the game felt barebones. I literally can't remember if I finished it. For free, I'd say it's worth a look. I don't think it was supposed to be very long. Just expect lots of slow, atmospheric time.
