Unsurprising. The first game, while novel and interesting, was not a good game. And from what I read, the general consensus is that the actual gameplay of this one is even worse than the first's. I admired what the first game was trying to do and I even think they did it well, but at the end of the day the majority of people play videogames to have fun.
Regardless, some folks love both games, and I'm happy for them. That being said, it's a very niche game and I find it odd for Microsoft to have bet so heavily on it to be more popular.
