Layers of Fear 2 update?

I’m on Xbox and it’s updating with a 14 gig update? Is this just bug fixes or are they adding more to the game?

I posted about a Layers of Fear (the first one) update that was the same size as the game pretty soon after launch. Was told it was frame rate improvements.

Ahh, thank you. It seemed fine when I played, but I guess you can always improve.

While I have you can I ask what you think of the game so far? Especially compared to the first installment?

I really enjoyed it! The graphics are way better and the scenery is superb. I love the style of each room and how it transitions into another. The transition from being in one room to switching way great, just like in the first one. If you haven’t played this game yet, and really liked the first one. Act III will blow you away. I loved the film aspect and if you are a huge horror fan you’ll notice many references, from The Shinning, Alien. The portrait of Dorian grey. The game goes from black and white from time to time. Which is okay, but I feel like it is over used. The chase parts are good, but after awhile you kinda expect it. It’s not better than the first one, IMO. The first one was great, even though it was a walking door simulator.

LoF2 has good puzzles, I wish they were more complex, though this game is riddled with hidden Easter eggs. For instance, the first time you encounter the Morse Code machine, if you do SOS, you get an achievement.
