@cjduke: Yeah, so far as the game side goes, overall I think the feel, abilities, etc are better. But my memory of 2016 is that at some point that game became kind of like a ballet, in the sense that it just flowed and I felt like I was in total control. Here, and I think I may have said this to you before, but a lot of time I kinda felt like I was flailing, having fun, but spiraling between just barely in control and just out of control.
That, and a couple things like the Marauder specifically that I actively disliked, to the point where when he'd show up I'd just sigh, and end up losing a couple lives (which didn't matter since I usually had about fifteen) because I didn't care enough to dodge every one of his attacks.
Overall, though, definitely a fun game. Still might try playing it again on a harder difficulty (assuming I can turn the difficulty up in level select so I can pseudo-new game + it) once I'm through all these other games.
