I went back later last night, and after a few more tries I figured out it was an exact spot of the game that caused it to freeze. I fast traveled past it, and came back through the other way and that fixed it.

This game is a buggy mess! It constantly stops and loads for no reason whatsoever!

Aside from that, if you even liked the first one, then you'll love this one. I really like how this one has more of an RPG element to it over the 1st, in the sense you can upgrade death and buy and upgrade better weapons, and get more powerful armor pieces. Also, a lot more side-quests aside from the main story quests, and some pretty neat items to find (I really liked the gnoMAD). I feel this one got rid of some of the smaller elements of the first that really annoyed me.

Overall, I'd give the 1st a score of 8/10, and this one (bugs aside) a 9/10. It's worth picking this one up.
 
From what I was hearing at launch it was unplayable on PC, but they recently released a patch so it may be resolved now.
 
I actually just finished playing through it, and since complaining about it a few nights ago I haven't had one problem with it. It still stops and says loading a ridiculous amount of times, but zero freezes.
 
just started it on pc today.
with the new patch all runs perfect.
game looks great on pc.

ohh man love the epic soundtrack on this game.
death looks pretty bad ass.

It does look pretty. Love the environments. And the soundtrack is EPIC! When I first started playing, the soundtrack reminded my of Lords of Shadow (which is a good thing) and the longer Ive played, some remind me of Final Fantasy.

Also! Am I the only one while playing keeps thinking to himself..."We NEED a BATTLECHASERS GAME!!!"

God I would LOVE that! Hopefully some day!
 
The patches took care of a lot of problems.

The gameplay is awesome. I like the variety of armors and weapons, etc. I love the art style. The worlds and dungeons are breathtaking. The sound effects and music are great. The voice acting is great. The story for the most part takes place along side the original game's, but it expands on the universe and it's cool seeing what Death was doing during that time.

It's a very enjoyable game. I wish NECA made figures. :monkey2

Triforce is doing a Death and Dust maquette they'll fully reveal at the NYCC. It looks pretty nice from what I've seen so far. And I believe it's SOTA that made a Samael statue, and it looks OK. But no figures from anyone.
 
I hate the lack of a double-jump in this game. I've actually died a few times trying to do it.
 
Ha! Me too! Also I really have a hard time executing those running wall slides.

I love the new Prince of Persia style gameplay, and its not a problem for me. It's just I've went to do that damn double-jump, and sometimes glide, like War could do in the 1st game.
 
I think the sequel is going to need to further story PAST the breaking of the seventh seal.

I was fun playing as Death and seeing what he was doing while War was imprisoned, but its time to further the story now.

Really. I don't want to see 2 more games about the other horseman that run concurrent like this one does. Hopefully the next one involves another horseman after War breaks the 7th seal.
