Ultimately, I had a lot of fun during my time with Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise after I was able to shut my brain off and simply go along for the janky skateboard ride through Le Carré. I found it to be charming and maybe I’m just a mark for garbage games, but I can see this having the same life as it’s predecessor if people decide to give it a shot and embrace this insane mystery.

Anyways, Deadly Premonition 2 is exactly the same. It’s a game that feels like it has never played any games released after the original. It doesn’t care about frame rate or good controls. It’s made a few changes to the overall formula but mostly casts aside the advances game design has made in the last ten years. Deadly Premonition 2 just wants to tell its story, tell it well, and be its own weird, little self. Your ability to either live with that or not will determine how deeply you fall in love with the citizens of Le Carre.

It’s a weird game to review because so many people are going to expect drastically different things. How many games force you to shave and send your clothes up for dry cleaning? How many times can you say that you hexed an old widow so that you could go bowling in the past…oh say decade or so? Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is another trip. You’ve been warned.

Deadly Premonition 2 is a great follow up to a beloved cult classic. It has an intriguing story and eccentric quirks, but feels safer on the gameplay side of things.

Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is a sequel that has taken its time to release, but is the long wait for this cult classic worth it?

The original Deadly Premonition is a cult classic and one of the weirdest games of all time. People have been asking for a sequel for years. Deadly Premoniton 2: A Blessing in Disguise is finally out after being announced a while ago, to the joy of all us fans of one of the best “so bad it’s good” experiences of all time. It’s time to find out if this is truly a blessing in disguise, as the title implies.

Fans of the original will still enjoy this outing, albeit probably not quite as much. Everyone else is best advised to stay away.

Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is going to be a hard game to review for many. The original was a technical mess, incorporating numerous gameplay

Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing In Disguise is a welcoming return to its strange and absurd world, but feels diluted and missing many of the flavor notes that defined its predecessor.

Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is somehow much, much worse than the original. The game looks and feels awful, with an unacceptable framerate and PlayStation 1 level textures. While the story is great, it’s brought down by even more tedious gameplay and some harmful stereotypes.
