I still enjoyed it and I thought overall the game mechanics and construction were better than the first. But I found myself lacking the same amazement and feeling of wanting more that arkham asylum brought me.

I mostly agree. I thought the beginning lacked direction and guidance ... it was just too abrupt. I liked the side missions though with different villains.
