Where The Surge 2 feels like an immediate improvement over the original comes with the flow of combat and how it allows for varying playstyles. Combat that makes ample room for players that find solace in either the be quick and evade or time those blocks and parries camp. Both of which are executed with style and nuance, with agility and speed that doesnt negate the sheer weight behind each hit (or miss) and blocking that focuses on matching incoming attack direction to stagger enemies. Both offering just the right amount of time to pull off a kinetic combo of clanging metal and spark-filled destruction.
