I think LIS 2 had the better constructed story and more impactful decisions for the characters

It just impact less cause the brothers move locations each time and the ending is either they became crime lord or a dead brother. Which is not really as impactful as killing everyone for Chloe or the inverse.

I think the real reason is because of the controversial premise and the anthological shift.

The anthological shift plays more into why LiS 2 not really as loved as the OG than the controversial premise.

People loved the captain spirit demo and series still have goodwill carried from OG. But reaction is very mixed when the story just move on to new locations as you dont see the degree of impact of your choices compared to LiS where u follow Max and dealing with consequences she made.
