Lone Echo 2 is bizarre in that it runs worse than the first game at the same settings. It's a shame as it does offer new graphics options like ambient occlusion that the first game doesn't have. The visuals might be better than Alyx's maxed out.

The mobility upgrades you can't get in the second game on top of the open world and letting you fling yourself off the drones is great though, can't argue with that. My one gripe is the plot and how it sort of retcons some stuff from the first game. The ending of the first game [spoiler]explicitly shows you more ships of the Astraea's class[/spoiler] but completely retcons those to just be cargo drones and [spoiler]puts you in a different timeline.[/spoiler] That in turn just doesn't make sense as [spoiler]the station was supposed to have gone missing in the Astraea's timeline too, even though the Astraea didn't appear earlier in it's own timeline as it did in the new fucked up timeline.[/spoiler]
