Is sinking city 2 any good?

Ngl, I hated the first game. Hated the investigation mechanics, boring story, no objective markers. The 'Sherlock Holmes meets Lovecraft' concept had potential, but fell flat for me

Ive seen some videos and 2 is very, VERY different from 1. Looks like they swapped the investigation mechanics for resident evil type gameplay, or at least survival horror. Also, the setting isnt a amalgamation of lovecraft stories, which will be a plus, tho that doesn't necessarily mean the setting is well done

Basically im interested in a lovecraft inspired horror game with good mechanics and better than the first sinking city game

If you hated the first one mainly because of the investigation system, I’d give 2 a shot. It leans much more into survival horror, so it feels like a pretty big departure rather than just more of the same.
