I admit I didn’t realize the sequel even came out yet, but it has an 88/9.0 on Metacritic. Overlooked maybe, but underrated?

His metric of underrated seems to be comparing the artistic quality of a game with its sales numbers, and I guess Talos II was a poor seller.

Bought it when it came out! Great game. The antialiasing is really funky, though. There's a lot of ghosting no matter what antialiasing option you use. I suspect it's probably a software bug. It does kind of detract from the visual quality aspect of its marketing.

Regardless, I don't think puzzles sell well in general - bit of a niche genre

That's our hated TAA for you. It's always on. And its especially bad in this title unfortunately. As talos1 was really great and I asked for talos2 to the devs for not forced TAA.

Rather have jaggies than being blurred out.

I really want MSAA back in modern games, always looked great even though it costs some performance. I feel like Anti Aliasing really doesn't cost that much as it used to do anyways
