Tradeoff: Its abrasive tone, deliberately offensive subject matter, and reduced branching compared to its predecessor will alienate sensitive or agency-focused players.

  • Dark, brutally timed comedy that keeps escalating

  • A sharply observed, relentlessly quotable script

  • A cast defined by instantly recognizable toxic personalities

What might put you off

  • Offensive humor and taboo subject matter

  • Less player agency than the original
