And before the soundtrack argument starts up again I'm gonna say I used to prefer 1 but 2's has grown on my since I've been playing it so much.

>>14525337

The first games OST was better tbh.

>>14525884

Gitgud.

>>14525327

How did you find hard mode OP? At first I hated it but the joy of just repeating levels until I learned them enough to master the game in its entirety is not something I've felt for years.

>Gitgud.

No anyone with half a brain dislikes Hotline Memami 2 for its terrible level design.

>>14525361

>>14525337

The soundtrack was one of the few things the second game did truly better than 1

>>14525327

I should finish hard mode one of these days. First Blood (first in Chapter 5) fucking destroyed me after I did everything else in one sitting, and then I forgot to play it more for some reason.

I found it pretty tough not gonna lie. I've been grinding away at it for about two months but taking it one level at a time I did get there.

I find sleeping on a tough level and trying it when you wake back up helps a lot.

>1st pic

Is that the one from the campaign with a 50 blessings club where people give eachother threatening phone calls? I thought that was really stupid.

>>14525327

Hotline Miami is fucking shit and only liked by vapourwave autists. Check em.

>>14526219

>I grabbed a bunch of levels from a steam workshop repack some guy on the gog forums put together so I'm sitting on at a whole bunch of custom levels that I'm working through very slowly.

Repacks would work if the game was pirated yes?

>vapourwave autists

But Hotline Miami has no "vapourwave" in it retard

>>14526291

>Hotline Miami

>Vaporwave

Idiot.

>>14526422

No and that's what you get for not supporting the industry.

This is the truth. 2's soundtrack is way more varied and has more songs in it overall. It's an improvement on both the action songs (Divide, Future Club, In The Face of Evil, Roller Mobster etc) as well as the more atmospheric songs (Around, Interlude, Dust etc). Also some seemingly random songs give some good variety and bring the whole soundtrack together (such as Run, Hollywood Heights, She Swallowed Burning Coals etc). Overall it's much better than the original which was bloody brilliant to begin with.

>Flavor of the month garbage.

>Got discussed months after its release.

>Discussing it now.

It isn't flavor of the month garbage then, now is it.

>>14528149

Yes.

I wish more games did the “kill quick or be killed quick” formula.

>>14528127

Roller Mobster on that fucking level was excellent

>>14527655

They're just fishing for (you)s, or they're just not good enough to play the game and got buttfrustrated. More likely though just shitting on a /v/ favorite to get replies. Don't worry about it.

>>14526276

I only played the first set of levels, you're some madman who owns a butcher shop and your french buddy gets killed by some other 50 blessings guy. Some of the levels were good, there was one or two with a bunch of windows but otherwise good stuff.

>>14526422

I've got a gog copy so I can't say if a pirated steam version would work but I don't see why not.

Link to levels here, around 7 gig file

Got 116 campaigns and 304 single levels, unpack to /My Documents/My Games/HotlineMiami2 by default. Some of the campaigns have custom music, but you have to swap out the hlm2_music_desktop.wad file that comes with the mod into the install directory, make a backup of the original somewhere, or just rename the original.

HM1s soundtrack > HM2s soundtrack

Not everyone who dislikes a popular game is baiting you know. I'll grant it's kind of hard to tell the two apart.

>>14528135
