If you liked the first game, you will definitely love this one. Everything except for maybe story (and only because you already know what's happening) is better: visuals and animations, cutscenes and narrative, gameplay variety, level design and secrets/collectibles.

The only downside is that you cannot get 100% achievements in one playthrough, so you need to start a New game plus. And NG+ is a letdown: it has absolutely the same encounters and gameplay as the NG, but the enemies have lower reaction times, which is not a problem at all because by chapter 6-7 of NG+ you will unlock absolutely all upgrades (actually, it's the exact reason why you can't get all achievements in one playthrough).

Also, it seems not possible to unlock all secret chests in NG+ (because there's not enough knives that open them), so be sure to find and unlock them in NG. Also, even though they are not displayed as collectibles in chapter progression menu, you can actually replay the chapters to unlock the chests you missed on your playthrough.

Other than the NG+ being too easy and too samey, the game is a great adventure, and I totally recommend it along with Plague Tale: Innocence.
