History YMMV / OverlordII

* ItIsTheSameNowItSucks: A lot of reviews boiled down to this.

* ViewersAreMorons: Just in case you missed it, the references to your burning tar pits causing snow to melt lead to global warming and flooding. After dropping every possible hint, they just come right out and call it that even though its regional warming at best.

* BestLevelEver: The stealth run with the green minions. Bonus points goes to the fact that it gave a lot of people the feeling of playing ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed''...{{Overlord}} style.

** The Spider mounts come off as the worst where they seem to not benefit greatly to the Green Minions role in assassination and suffer from very odd wall-climbing mechanics that are universally hated amongst the players. They are considered the worst choice for the final battle.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The Overlord's drastic decrease in spells compared to the amount of spells found in the first game.

** ThatOneBoss: The BossBattle against the Spider Queen before even trying to run the elevator is this. Figuring out how the fight even works at first can stump newcomers for awhile, and the fight is well-known to drag depending on how well the player keeps an equipped team of Minions alive. Not to mention the repetitive nature of the fight by always having to flip the Queen over as the only means to inflict actual damage on her.

* ThatOneLevel: Traversing the wall-maze with the spider mounted green minions to work the Spider Queen's elevator rubs A LOT of people the wrong way. Much harder for PC users due to the game being developed around consoles where the controls are already quite frustrating.

** ThatOneBoss: The actual boss fight against the Spider Queen before even trying to run the elevator. Simply trying to figure out how the fight works at first can stump newcomers for awhile, and the fight is also well-known to drag for quite sometime. Doing damage when you finally succeed at flipping the Queen over to make her vulnerable to actual damage can take ''a lot'' of punishment even if your minions are well equipped for combat.

** Salamanders form the middle ground where they make the Red Minions forces to be reckoned with, but require the most micro work to reek the benefits.

* TierInducedScrappy:
** Almost everyone agrees that the Wolf mounts are miles ahead of the Spider and Salamander mounts in utility, and are considered to be the best choice for the final battle.
