Well, I played it. I don't think it's bad, but I certainly prefer the first one. It commits one of my pet peeves in sequels, which is that it springs from the idea that the heroes' success in the original was false and it even justifies this by retconning elements of the original. Bad form, I say. There's also some really tonedeaf characterization going on.
Foster and his allies just erased the established government in Union City and it's quite likely that many people are going to suffer in the anarchy. Foster responds to this by...going home. Which is exactly how Union City got into its most recent predicament, because Foster left when Ken (he was Ken in my game) needed his guidance and seemingly never intended to even come back for a visit (not sure what happened to Hobbins, especially as he's like the only guy from the original who wasn't even mentioned...).
