Worse than Sands of Time in every conceivable way.

- Dying takes you through like 15 seconds of waiting. I don't mind dying a lot in a game but oh my god that's just way too long. "Skill issue just don't die" you will die on your first time in a Prince of Persia game because of the trickier platforming. So it kinda sucks.
- They doubled down, tripled down even, on the combat, which was merely passable, and decided that you should be fighting all the time, against terribly annoying enemies that are pumped with HP. The first game had annoying enemies but at least it's a small part of the run time. Here, it's everywhere.
- I don't like the dual weapon system. I don't think it's bad but I don't feel like being charitable - it really adds nothing to the game. You can throw weapons and pick a new one up, I guess.
- BROWN AND BLOOM BABY!! This game looks noticeably worse than Sands of Time.

Play it I guess if you want to experience the whole saga?
