The tone is relentlessly wacky, and the game is plagued by busywork. But the parts I'm enjoying are not enough to make me want to fight through the rest. Patricia, the precocious child who declares herself our partner, is a delight. The murder case is a curious one I want to see solved, and I think I've caught a few hints about future revelations. I'm interested in the conspiraces of this Louisiana town ruled by a merciless criminal family. I was so happy when our boy was introduced as Francis Zach Morgan, reflecting his acceptance of himself and his trauma at the end of the first game, then it's gutting to see how badly his life has apparently gone since then. This is framed by sections in 2019, where FBI agent Aaliyah Davis is questioning a frail and withered Francis Zach Morgan about those events with great suspicion. The main strand is set in 2005, retelling an earlier case where special agent Francis York Morgan (please, call him York-everyone does) investigated previous murders connected to otherworldly red seeds, this time in the small Louisiana town of Le Carré.
Deadly Premonition 2 is both a sequel and a prequel to the first game. I assumed it had big non-technical problems too, because it is a Deadly Premonition game, but I hoped for better than this. I tried to avoid Deadly Premonition 2 when it debuted on Nintendo Switch in 2020, holding out hope for a PC release, so all I knew was it had terrible framerate problems.
