I'm liking what I've done of the 2nd playthrough so far. Feels a lot faster, and the game is wise to pepper in new bits to keep it feeling fresh enough to keep going. While I don't care much for 9S as a character, I do like his hacking minigame (especially the chiptuneified remixes of whatever theme is currently playing).

One small annoyance I have had throughout is that the button prompts are wrong for me. I'm using an 8bitdo controller, so for all the 'B' prompts, I've had to press the A button, and now with this hacking thrown into the mix I have to press X for the 'Y' prompts. Muscle memory sorts this out pretty quick, but more than a few times I've gotten puzzled when I clearly pressed 'B' and rather than acquiring useful items, 2B just leapt into the air.

Actually, now that I think about it, there are a lot of little annoyances I have. Sometimes it can be a bit awkward distinguishing between game environment and invisible wall territory. In hand with that, the map can be a chore to mess with and properly interpret. The camera insists that I want a lower viewing angle than I'd prefer, leading me to constantly fiddle with the right analog. Red dots keep being a thing, no matter how many I seem to squash down, like a hydra's head, a new quest appears.

All that said, none of it goes so far as to actually diminish the experience. Still having a blast exploding robots while listening to the lovely soundtrack. Heck, I've lingered in some areas just to soak in more of the ost.
