Is DDS2 worth the buy?

[Eamon Sandvich]

I've played the first game and didn't mind it when they were updating it/making some improvements. Ever since they announced they were making a second game I've been grinding first game to keep my mind fresh, but something is holding me back from making the purchase. I just wanna know if they delivered on what they said they were gonna do for the 2nd game and if some of the new features work properly. I've seen some videos of the game, but I wanna know who's played it and what they think of the game; is it worth it?

I mean I played the first game so that doesn't help. Anything specific about the 2nd game that was greatly improved from the last one?

Any specifics you can mention about the 2nd game that doesn't make it worth it

Not sure what he means by you can't make your own drugs. You progress by unlocking drug recipes and better lab equipment to make them.

I'm having a lot of fun playing and don't seem to be running into these game-breaking bugs mentioned. Things improved over DDS1 for me would be the ability to hire other staff than just dealers, which allow you to automate dealer collection and distribution, or buff your hideout's drug production ability. The combat is pretty basic but it is fun to be able to fight your way out of a bad situation.

You can fast travel around points on the map using a car, or freely travel the entire map with a boat, using docks to get back to land.

I'm currently playing it and just got to Pedro Alvarez. Everything you said I've also encountered so idk what that guy is talking about. It felt weird moving around at first compared to DDS1, but you get the hang of it and adapt this games changes. I really love the whole dealer collection system & you can do more with your "employees" compared to the last game when it comes to distributing too.

There are some bugs here and there I'll admit, but nothing ground breaking where it's gonna totally ruin the drug dealing experience. They'll have to get to that in the next update (if they're still gonna update this game) and hopefully make necessary improvements where it's needed :)

I got that from the first game. I was just hoping to not buy another game that looks good and when you actually play it for yourself it's hot garbage or clips you see of the game don't do it justice

I have this game on my other account and i just cant see much of a difference between this and the first i mean this could have been a dlc not a full game really the other one was simple and it made you feel like a actualy DD but now its just seems to add stuff that really just makes it not as fun i will always just prefer the first one

I can see what they were going with this game to be the prequel to the first game, trying to tie in Eddie’s past to link up with the story. So far I don’t see how the story correlates to Eddie, asides from meeting a couple people you “know” already.

Asides from that, it’s ok with some of the new additions they made to the game like the combat system, it may not be guns but it’s still something for what the devs are trying to go for. If they wanna consider this a full game, they better start working on improving some of the mechanics & things you can do in this game. There’s potential just it’s not there yet

I only bought it a couple days ago and have been having a blast. Game's janky and a bit buggy, needs more work and more complete features, but it's certainly not bad

Couldn’t agree more, I know they’re actually paying attention to this game compared to the first one since this is their baby now. I have faith they will eventually nail it eventually, but for now we just gotta keep wheeling n dealing till we get to the top
