Probably one of the most fun games i've played in ages - sure it had some balance issues at launch but it has matured very nicely. It lives up to the promise of V1 while delivering some significant improvements.
As it's co-op this is a blast to play with friends, it can be a challenging game, but with a genuinely high skill ceiling.

Melee combat in this game has the best feel of any game I have ever played.

... and around 2,000 hours after i wrote that it's still absolutely true - V2 remains the single best melee combat I have ever played.
It's easy to pick up and have fun with, but rewards time invested with a remarkably high skill ceiling. Crucially it's all situational, there's not one particular meta move to practice.
It's a series of 'oh sh!t' moments strung together - which is supremely rewarding.
It's also on sale loads, get it!
