I don't understand the hate for Bioshock 2
I recently started playing Bioshock 2, and I'm near the end, and I really don't understand all the hate it gets. Fans basically pretend it didn't even happen. I understand that:
-It's basically Bioshock 1.5
-It retcons several plot points
-There are very few new features (the only differences in gameplay is the addition of the drill and different levels of plasmid upgrades)
-It was kinda a dumb concept and the action requires less finesse
But really, I'm just enjoying the hell out of this game. I haven't finished it yet, but I really do enjoy the Rapture environment and story and the plasmid upgrades are fun as hell.
So what turned you off to this game, and why are out experiences different?

I didn't hate it, but I didn't find it as compelling as Bioshock. It's not that I have bad things to say about it, it's that I don't have many good things to day about it. As a side note (I say side since I don't think anyone seriously considers Bioshock 2's multiplayer to be a selling point) Bioshock 2's multiplayer is pretty broken. It's part pay-to-win with some of the plasmids being DLC locked, and weapons unlocked later on (I'm looking at you extended clip crossbow) completely overpower lower level weapons.
