I will rarify my findings into a couple of sentences.
This sequel is identical to the original, with some marginal improvements.
If you liked the original, you will be fine with this. If you are new to the series, I would recommend doing something else.
It all boils down to one question:
Would I spend $59.99 to play this game?
My Answer: No.
If this title were to ever go on sale, then yes, I would try it. But it is certainly not worth $60.
