Oxenfree 2 is a letdown that fails to live up to the promise of its predecessor. The first game was a flawed gem, but it had a strong story, memorable characters, and excellent audiovisuals. Oxenfree 2, on the other hand, is bogged down by slow-paced navigation, underdeveloped characters, and overly scripted dialogue.
The plot of Oxenfree 2 is a reasonable enough continuation of the first game's story, but it's not particularly exciting or engaging. The characters are also quite flat, and they don't really grow or develop over the course of the game. The dialogue is also often overly scripted, which makes it feel unnatural and forced.
In addition to the problems with the story and characters, Oxenfree 2 also suffers from slow-paced navigation. The game world is quite large, but there's not much to do in it. Most of the time, you'll just be walking from one point to another, and the backtracking can be quite tedious.
Overall, Oxenfree 2 is a disappointing sequel that fails to live up to the promise of its predecessor. If you enjoyed the first game, you might still find some things to like in Oxenfree 2, but it's not a game that I would recommend to everyone.
