into the radius 2 feels questionable to me. i understand they wanted to try out a slightly different and modified version of their previous installment, into the radius (1). however, there's a bit of soul missing for itr2 that was in itr1 in a weird way.
+ One of the more recent updates for gun customization parts is very cool
+ Gun play is adequate, however you should adjust whether or not you want virtual stock (I play with it off, and you can also adjust the X Y axis to fine tune), but be careful, sometimes the gun floats (may be a performance issue with me, idk)
+ In the latest update, they added lootable scrap/stash guns
+ Weapon cleaning is very cool for that type of person who enjoys it
* The enemies in the game are a little sub-par. They're not really special. Most are remastered/refurbished and improved from ITR1, but are essentially the same enemies in idea and practice.
* L's voice actor has had voice line changes and does not speak paragraphs of dialogue anymore, allowing you to quickly move on (if that's your thing)
* Same goes with the UNPSC manager lady
- I have a toaster and run this game very poorly in multiplayer, even with reduced resolution and low graphics options
- The anomaly fields feel terrible and awful (I recommend turning them to low amounts spread and/or low damage)
- Artifacts feel much more like a monetary item than anything else
- The upgrade feature from ITR1 is not present (upgrading fire rate, etc)
i will recommend this game on the premise of "i really like the features and ideas in this game" but i can't really "play" it past the first area and the base. i can't get the full enjoyment out of it due to poor performance. 6/10, thumbs up

Quest 3S 128 GB running on OpenXR Runtime: Oculus (it's the only game for me that runs terribly on SteamVR, if you're having performance issues i've heard Virtual Desktop is worth buying)
