It's a better game in many ways than the first- from a game play perspective, but it fails to suck you into it's world because the graphics/art style are just so bland, with simple angular looking environments, low res textures, and a cartoony color palette.
You supposed to be fighting off an alien invasion. It should feel moody/oppressive/scary. But it doesn't feel scary at all. I'd like to see them make the graphics/art grittier, darker, creepier, and overall just more consistent with the theme of the game.
I'd say some horror elements could really help sell the mood too (the chimera need to be truely alien-not the reskinned typical vanilla soldiers they are now).
