After playing **Death end re;Quest 2**, I came away with mixed feelings. While it is still a good game overall, it feels more like a spin-off than a true continuation of the previous title. One of the biggest positives is the gameplay. Combat mechanics feel more refined compared to the first game, with improvements that make battles smoother and more engaging. From a gameplay standpoint, it definitely shows progress

Story
Mai Toyama seeks an escape from her traumatic past. She enrolls at Wordsworth, an all-girl’s dormitory situated in the small, mountainous town known as Le Choara where it was rumored that her sister, Sanae, was last seen. Hopeful, Mai seeks to find her kin, but she soon finds terrifying inhabitants which lurk throughout the town after dark. At night, Le Choara’s streets are filled with Shadow Matter—a horrific group of menacing creatures. Around every cobblestone corner, Mai discovers that her hope of finding her sister lies beneath the long-buried secrets which haunt Le Choara.

Save yourself the trouble and play it on easy mode, it's not worth it. From chapter 5 onwards bosses and even normal enemies have way too much health, making the game difficult in a non-entertaining way. At least in DERQ1 you could form certain strategies around the genre change and the summons, but DERQ2 has none of that. Just try to make use of field bugs and defeat your enemies before they run out, otherwise you
