Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_10c393f5 | comment |
Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: Averted. Beard's flamethrower, which is unlocked after completing "Casualties" for the first time, can kill even Thugs in one shot and reach almost a screen away. As a downside, however, it can't fire through glass, and rewards less points per kill (400 vs. 600 (800 in the case of Thugs) from gun kills). | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: While the first game isn't shy about killing characters off, this one is even more trigger happy, as playable characters can be killed off at the end of their respective storylines. Characters introduced in the first game aren't safe either. In the end, everyone who survived up to that point unceremoniously dies in a nuclear exchange between America and the Soviets. | |

Darker and Edgier: The first game was already utterly bleak and ultraviolent, but this one manages to dig further, not just by being Bloodier and Gorier, but also acting as the Mind Screwdriver to the previous game and going deeper into just how horrible and depressing the series' setting is, to the point that the game ends in a nuclear apocalypse. | |

Necessary Drawback | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_1c0d4155 | comment |
Like the original masks for Jacket, each of the Fans comes with an useful skill at a reasonable cost: Corey can dive-roll under bullets, but at the cost of split-second vulnerability at the end of it. As well as carrying the same deadly punches and higher attack speed as the Tony mask from the first game, Tony can kill Thugs with melee attacks, and has a slightly larger window for killing charging Dogs. However, he can't pick up any weapons, has a longer kill animation for dogs if they aren't melee'd perfectly, and has to knock down Thugs first before killing them via execution. With the increased size of the levels in Hotline Miami 2, this generally results in having to bait out any enemies with guns, and it isn't very effective for racking up combos because of this. The Swans can simultaneously melee and fire, Ash automatically picks up whatever gun he steps over, and only Alex can die. This comes with the restriction of slow melee executions, no melee swapping, and being a pain to learn and adjust to. Mark starts with two MP5s and, while equipped, pressing the throw button makes him gradually arc the guns outwards for spraying rooms or 90° either side. This comes at the cost of him being unable to drop them until empty, only getting one reload, and (since they don't respawn for the map) getting no further bonuses afterwards. | |

Diabolus ex Machina: There's very little foreshadowing concerning the events that lead up to the nuclear war at the end of the game (even if the nature of the ending itself is foreshadowed), and it seems to be in the story for the sole purpose of ensuring that there won't be a Hotline Miami 3. | |

| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_1f963842 | comment |
Bloodier and Gorier: Impossible though it may sound, this game is even more violent than the first one, albeit in a subtle but still VERY noticeable manner. You may notice that the deaths are more graphic and detailed this time around (you'll see guts spilling out from enemies a lot more often and in larger amounts, for one thing) once you examine them, the executions are much more sadistic and disturbing, and the amount of bloodshed is higher. | |

Punch-Clock Villain | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_20860a0e | comment |
The Henchman is an allegory for the characters who downplayed the acts against the Russians. He is just a Punch-Clock Villain who legitimately wants to quit and doesn't seem to enjoy the violence of his job. His death is intentionally bloody ad undignified to pull a punch on the players, killing a mobster who they've grown fond off who they would have otherwise killed without blinking. | |

Kevlard: The Thugs return from the first game. Normally they can only be killed by guns, but the sequel adds the ability for melee-only characters to knock them down and spend several seconds brutally beating them to death. Averted with the Dodgers, a new type of enemy in this installment. They essentially serve as an inversion of the Thugs, being immune to gunfire and only killable with melee strikes. However, said immunity merely comes from the fact that they dodge any incoming bullets (hence their name), since they're not fat and die from a single melee hit like any normal enemy. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: A number of them referencing events from the first game, along with some irony: "Death Wish" and "Apocalypse", which take place at the same time, have a few of these: The Fans die in an area occupied by the Russian Mafia, much like a couple of the original masked vigilantes. Except for Tony, who meets his end at the hands of the "law". Alex & Ash's encounter with the Son mirrors the unreliablility of Jacket and Biker's fight, with both sides having different tellings of how it went down.Note (Spoilers) In Jacket's side, he killed Biker with a golf club, while Biker killed Jacket with his cleaver. Yet none of them were right. Or were they? Meanwhile, Alex & Ash died by being shot by the Son, but in the Son's mind, he killed them with a fireaxe, with his hallucination seeing the twins as a twin-headed monster. The Son dies like his father: suicide, after encountering a masked character. The Janitors tease one of the playable characters once more, about the events that have transpired. Every playable character has a vehicle that they use to enter and leave at the start and end of a level. The exceptions are Evan, Beard and Richter, who can be considered the least malicious protagonists in the game. Of course, not that Richter had a choice: his original car got torched. One of the pre-level tracks in Beard's storyline ("Rust") sounds a bit like the first game's after-level track, "Daisuke", likely as a nod to how Beard is the person Jacket meets in every after-level sequence of the game's first two parts (spanning through levels 1-8). Additionally, both tracks were made by El Huervo, who was the inspiration for Beard's appearance. | |

| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
The Swans can simultaneously melee and fire, Ash automatically picks up whatever gun he steps over, and only Alex can die. This comes with the restriction of slow melee executions, no melee swapping, and being a pain to learn and adjust to. | |

Perfect Play A.I.: The enemy reaction times are practically instant, unlike in the first game. This rises the difficulty nicely, and speeds up the gameplay. However, because of this, melee enemies (Dogs and runners) can attack you the instant they/you walk past a corner they/you hide behind, resulting in some pretty cheap deaths. | |

He's privileged to go into danger zones first, and gets to tamper with evidence. He survives until the end of the game, but holed up with paranoia in his house. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The Fans decide to rescue a damsel from gangsters, and after massacring the gangsters and speaking to the damsel. She's in a frenzy and refuses to leave with them. She says the gangsters were her friends and if you try to approach her, she will shoot you dead on the spot. Meth is made from extremely flammable, potentially-explosive materials. Fire a gun into a meth lab (identifiable by the bottles and chemicals on the table) and it will explode, quite possibly killing you on the spot if you're too close. | |

Meta Fiction | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_4304666a | comment |
Metafiction: Most of the main characters are allegories for different types of players from the first game: The Fans represent, obviously, the players who idolised Jacket as a straight up hero and found all the violence cool and enjoyable without paying attention to the actual story. Evan represents people who were too obsessed with the lore and story of the first game, while not enjoying the gameplay itself. Jake represents the bigots who agreed with 50 Blessings' xenophobic mission. Manny Pardo isn't as clear but some interpret him as representing the lackluster copycats of HLM that arose after the release of the game. He hopes to be able to measure to the Masked Murderers of 1989, but instead of Jacket's complicated and nuanced life, he is just doing it for fame and shits and giggles, and so he will just be forgotten. Martin is the fanbase who played the game soley because of the gore and to be as shitty and violent as possible for their own amusement. The Henchman is an allegory for the characters who downplayed the acts against the Russians. He is just a Punch-Clock Villain who legitimately wants to quit and doesn't seem to enjoy the violence of his job. His death is intentionally bloody ad undignified to pull a punch on the players, killing a mobster who they've grown fond off who they would have otherwise killed without blinking. Richter could represent the people who played the game not because they enjoyed it but because they felt pressured to do so. The fact that his playstile is much more erratic and slightly frightned reflects how these players probably weren't ver experienced with high speed One-Hit-Point Wonder violent video game. The Son on the other hand represents players who villified Jacket as a psychotic murderer. While it's true that the Russian mafia is composed of Punch Clock Villains, the higher ups weren't some sort of Benevolent Boss Lesser of Two Evils, but a violent family who profited of death and suffering. While the Father and the Grandfather were something of a Flat Character and the latter's death is a Kick the Dog moment for Jacket, the Son is an Ax-Crazy daddy's son who can't hope to compare to his father and eventually destroys for real the mafia in a drug fueled haze. | |

Cutting Off the Branches | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_52475ffd | comment |
Cutting Off the Branches: Of the few choices and story branches the player was given in the first game, all of them are given a canon outcome. Biker is still alive in 1991, as is Jacket, canonicizing the outcome that Jacket won their fight by smashing Biker in the face with a golf club, but hallucinated bashing Biker's head in afterwards. Or he simply misremembered the fight, given that it was only shown in his coma while he was recollecting the events leading up to his awakening. Richter and the Janitors appear in the 1990s segments, establishing that sparing them is the canon choice in the first game. Biker might not have even found the Janitors in the first place. | |

Bragging Rights Reward: The rank-related achievement only calls for getting A+ ranks every level, so getting the better S ranks could be considered to be this. Also, as Richard points out in the opening cutscene, beating Hard Mode will not change the story whatsoever, with the exception of adding a symbolic, patriotic poem in the ending credits. At least there's an achievement for beating Hard Mode. | |

These characters include Mark, Manny Pardo, Jake, Martin Brown, whose stomp execution is faster than many of the other characters, and the Son, who grinds his foot into the remains of the enemy's head out of spite. | |

Disney Villain Death | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_5bdcc85a | comment |
Disney Villain Death: In "Apocalypse", the Son takes one too many drugs and has an intense Mushroom Samba, culminating in him walking off the roof of his new headquarters under the assumption that the Bifrost, the rainbow bridge of Norse myth, is there. In an earlier level, you can see his body covered by a cloth and the police having finished their autopsy on him. | |

| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_5caef4ca | comment |
Chainsaw Good: Alex's only weapon is a large, bright orange chainsaw. The Gang variants of the Dodgers are distinguished from other Gang members in that they wield chainsaws similar to that of Alex's (although it's likely that they don't use them with the power on, since their attack sound is the same as most sharp melee weapons), as well as wearing green masks. | |

Central Theme | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Two major ones, actually: Like the first game, the pointlessness and self-destructive nature of violence is a recurring message in each of Wrong Number's successive storylines. Martin Brown, who relishes the chance to play the killer in a violent slasher film, ends up losing his grip on reality and is accidentally killed when a loaded gun ends up on set instead of a prop. The Henchman, who made his living as a killer for the Russian mafia, is abandoned by his girlfriend when he tries to leave with money stolen from the Colombian Cartel and killed by the Fans soon after. Biker, who became one of the masked killers in Hotline Miami out of boredom, has become a sad drunk after losing his will to fight between the two games. The Soldier, who kept fighting in a pointless war that everyone knew America was losing, is killed after being discharged, when Russia nukes an American city to force a surrender. The Fans, who became copycat killers for fun, are slaughtered after getting in over their heads. The Son leads a bloody turf war against the Colombians, only to overdose on drugs celebrating his victory, kill dozens of his subordinates, and then jump off a skyscraper. Manny Pardo, a Glory Hound detective who became a serial killer to advance his career with Engineered Heroics, fails to achieve fame and instead ends up a paranoid wreck hiding in his own home, terrified that his wrongdoings will eventually be discovered by the police precinct. If Evan keeps obsessing over the violent Masked Maniac killings, his wife and kids leave him for good. 50 Blessings, who believed they could use violence to "save" America from Russian influence, end up inciting a nuclear holocaust that destroys Hawaii and Miami instead. Additionally, there are expectations - namely, how nothing ever goes the way people expect. Every character expects something to come out of their exploits and believe that they are working towards a certain fate. However, the only character to get a somewhat satisfying ending is Richter, who just goes with the flow. This is further underlined by the Richard hallucination being comforting and friendly to him, instead of confrontational and taunting. Apart from them, not even the players are safe. | |

Biker is still alive in 1991, as is Jacket, canonicizing the outcome that Jacket won their fight by smashing Biker in the face with a golf club, but hallucinated bashing Biker's head in afterwards. Or he simply misremembered the fight, given that it was only shown in his coma while he was recollecting the events leading up to his awakening. | |

The Son on the other hand represents players who villified Jacket as a psychotic murderer. While it's true that the Russian mafia is composed of Punch Clock Villains, the higher ups weren't some sort of Benevolent Boss Lesser of Two Evils, but a violent family who profited of death and suffering. While the Father and the Grandfather were something of a Flat Character and the latter's death is a Kick the Dog moment for Jacket, the Son is an Ax-Crazy daddy's son who can't hope to compare to his father and eventually destroys for real the mafia in a drug fueled haze. | |

Yet none of them were right. Or were they? Meanwhile, Alex & Ash died by being shot by the Son, but in the Son's mind, he killed them with a fireaxe, with his hallucination seeing the twins as a twin-headed monster. | |

Just Before the End: Aside from the levels that take place prior to 1991, the game's story is set before the beginning of World War III. None of the characters in 1991 are in any real position to keep this from happening, a fact that Richard alludes to throughout his conversations. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory!: In the PS3 and Vita versions of the first game, the Circle button is used as the "drop/switch weapon" button, since throwing a weapon as opposed to simply dropping it can easily cause unwanted commotion. Here, the dropping feature is inexplicably gone, forcing you to throw a weapon every time you switch to another. Speedrun enthusiasts used to the first game's controls or people who want to get an A+ ranking on every stage will surely have a field day. When replaying levels in the first game, the "Skip Intro?" prompt is set to "yes" by default. Here it's set to "no". | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: Like the original masks for Jacket, each of the Fans comes with an useful skill at a reasonable cost: Corey can dive-roll under bullets, but at the cost of split-second vulnerability at the end of it. As well as carrying the same deadly punches and higher attack speed as the Tony mask from the first game, Tony can kill Thugs with melee attacks, and has a slightly larger window for killing charging Dogs. However, he can't pick up any weapons, has a longer kill animation for dogs if they aren't melee'd perfectly, and has to knock down Thugs first before killing them via execution. With the increased size of the levels in Hotline Miami 2, this generally results in having to bait out any enemies with guns, and it isn't very effective for racking up combos because of this. The Swans can simultaneously melee and fire, Ash automatically picks up whatever gun he steps over, and only Alex can die. This comes with the restriction of slow melee executions, no melee swapping, and being a pain to learn and adjust to. Mark starts with two MP5s and, while equipped, pressing the throw button makes him gradually arc the guns outwards for spraying rooms or 90° either side. This comes at the cost of him being unable to drop them until empty, only getting one reload, and (since they don't respawn for the map) getting no further bonuses afterwards. The Son's various techniques recycle each dynamic of the fans except Alex and Ash's, either with a new addition (the Bodyguard technique, Corey's equivalent, makes him start the level with a katana) or restriction (Tony's equivalent, Dirty Hands, doesn't grant an increase in attack speed; and Mark's equivalent, Bloodline, restricts him from performing ground executions while carrying the MP5s). In general, the Son himself also has new executions at the cost of a slower melee attack speed. Jake's Dallas mask also recycles Tony's dynamic with a new ability known as "Havoc", in which he carries nunchucks that temporarily increase his attack range and speed, while restricting him from looking around and moving once the ability ends. | |

Death by Irony: All of the fans but Tony kill the Henchman, a Russian mobster, in the outro cutscene to "Execution", this being their first kill on the Russian mafia. Later, all of the fans except Tony are killed by the Son during their raid at the Russian mafia's headquarters, after killing many other mobsters themselves. Speaking of the cause of death, Mark dies by the Son whacking him with a golf club when his play style revolves around firearms, while Corey gets shot by the Son with a magnum when her special ability allows her to avoid bullets. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Quite a bit with regards to the ending. "There's a twist at the end. I doubt you'll like it. I don't think anyone will." This foreshadows not only Martin's accidental death at the end of the chapter, but the controversial Downer Ending of the game itself. During the Henchman's dream sequence, it's noted on the radio that A Storm Is Coming to Miami. It's really nuclear fallout. The game's box art. It depicts the nuking of San Francisco, with the Soldier in focus. Behind him are the Fans' animal-like Final Boss forms, with one of the Janitors at the top middle, the Colonel on left, and the Son on the right. In "First Blood," Richter's mother talks about a dream where she, Richter and his father were on an island together peacefully, but there was something wrong in the air before something bad happened. At the end of the game, Richter and his mother are peacefully watching TV in Hawaii before the nukes come down. The main menu appears to be Miami in the middle of being nuked. When continuing the game, the screen flashes from the left of the screen, like an explosion. On the following screen, you can see something glowing to the left that is not the sun. The appearance of Nuclear Throne cut-outs in '"Homicide" is oddly prophetic, considering what happens at the end of the game. In the opening cutscene of "Dead Ahead", if you open the trunk of Pardo's car, you'll see that he's keeping a hostage inside it. While said hostage isn't present in the level itself, his corpse is later seen in the ending cutscene. Being the Miami Mutilator himself, Pardo killed him at some point between the opening cutscene and the beginning of the level. Also, in the same cutscene, Pardo can be seen setting up a Frame-Up by planting the hostage's wallet in Alex's house. There's a little detail worth noticing about the ending cutscene of "Death Wish". You may notice a body covered in a tarp when Pardo leaves the building. That's the Son. | |

Alternate History | |

Alternate History: US/Soviet Union relations were considerably different in Hotline Miami's version of history. Beard's levels are all set during a fictional invasion of Hawaii by the Soviets. San Francisco gets nuked by Russia in 1986 to force a surrender. As a direct result, the Soviet Union and the US begin negotiations to turn the American government into a Puppet State under the "Russo-American Coalition". In 1991, the Soviet Union and the US start a nuclear holocaust when their leaders are assassinated in an American Military Coup, implied to have been orchestrated by 50 Blessings. | |

Unusable Enemy Equipment | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_a89efe3c | comment |
Unusable Enemy Equipment: Beards' levels stand out from the rest in that, while you get to wield a gun and a knife at the same time, you can't pick any weapons dropped by enemies, similarly to Biker in the first game. In the case of the gun (which you choose at the beginning of each level), you have to look for ammo boxes to refill it once it runs out of ammo. Dodgers are mainly distinguished from other enemy types in that they tend to use weapons that are specific to a playable character (e.g. the Gang variants use Alex's chainsaw, and the Colombian variants the Son's katana), as well as weapons of unusual wielding such as dual pistols (as in the Military variants' case). Regardless of the character you're playing as, you can't pick any of their weapons once you kill them. | |

Soundtrack Dissonance: The main menu song, "Untitled" by The Green Kingdom, has a peaceful and slightly melancholic vibe, in contrast with the action that goes on in-game, which can make it sound rather weird at first. After beating the game, it's clear that the main menu depicts Miami getting nuked, and so the song takes on a whole different vibe. The song that plays over the nuclear apocalypse at the end is the incredibly slow and peaceful (but lyrically fitting) "You Are The Blood" by Castanets. | |

Take That! | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: The entire game is a mockery of video game sequel expectations, and expectations in general. The closest analogues to Jacket from the first game, Martin Brown and the Fans, all get killed in the first half of the game (the Fans still have the most levels out of all the playable characters, though, at 5). Martin doesn't even make it past the first act. The Fans attempt to rescue a girl in "Moving Up", similarly to Jacket saving the Girlfriend in "Decadence" from the first game, only for her to point a gun at them and tell them to leave for killing her brother and the rest of the gang in the building (whom she refers to as her "friends"). The New Game Plus mode, Hard Mode, has an opening cutscene where Richard admonishes the player characters and the player themselves for hoping there's any alternate ending. Outside of expectations, a TV host who resembles Ellen Degeneres gets killed, and her head is left on her table, likely referencing the open secret of Degeneres' workplace bullying and harassment until an investigation in 2020 brought attention to it. | |

Tonight, Someone Dies: The final level in each act is signified by blood pouring down in its opening screen. And in each of these act finales, at least one playable character ends up dying; the two exceptions are "Release" of Act 5, where Richter merely escapes from prison, and "Take Over" of Act 6, where The Son manages to destroy the Colombian Cartel without any problem (his death doesn't happen until the following and final level, "Apocalypse", which isn't included within the act). | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: The rooster-headed "Richard" appears in some way to each of the story's characters at different points. It's unclear if he's just caused by their personal connections to the player character from the first game, or represents something deeper in the psyche of all humans. Or maybe neither. In the secret level "The Abyss", Richard and Don Juan show up and ramble at Ethan about how he wasn't supposed to be there - but they don't have the talking animation that the hallucinatory Richard has. Is it really the same Don Juan and Richard that spoke to Jacket in the first game, or are they just some junkies mistaking Evan for another mafia goon? | |

Postmodernism: The game could easily be interpreted as a commentary on reactions to the first one and on the nature of sequels in general. Martin Brown and the Fans indulge in shallow repetitions of what happened in the first game. The Fans enjoy gratuituous violence and mayhem for its own sake. Evan Wright is obsessed with trying to make sense of the deliberately disjointed narrative of the first game. And so on. | |

After you clear it, leave in your truck after speaking to the Volunteer. In ensuing cutscene, as the Volunteer goes to get "coffee", right click and Jake will grab a floppy disk off the table. When investigating his clothes as Evan, right-click near the floppy to pick it up, and the level will be unlocked. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: It’s extremely hard to notice during pitched firefights, but most player characters are capable of surviving one bullet (or getting grazed by a shotgun). Considering the fact the game has tons of open spaces and/or windows, it’s mostly to prevent extremely cheap deaths in a game where everyone is still a One-Hit-Point Wondernote You will still die if you eat another bullet, and since most computers fire pistols quickly, have automatic weapons or the magnum, which ignores this rule, or catch you in the middle of a shotgun blast, so don’t grow too reliant. Evan is unable to use guns normally, and passing his Rage Breaking Point requires you to sit throw a couple of long execution mechanics, which can spell doom in urgent situations. Thankfully, Evan never runs across Thugs, who need to be killed with gunfire, or Dogs, whose speed would spell doom for Evan without a blunt weapon equipped. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure: In Evan's first level, he breaks into the lair of a Russian mob boss named Petrov and confronts him in the sauna. Instead of simply dismissing him, Petrov notes his amusement that Evan got that far and agrees to answer two questions (Evan is smart enough to get straight to the point, asking Petrov if he thinks the "Mask Maniacs" were an organized group and why he believes they targeted the Russian mob). However, Petrov is still a mob boss, and so we can later see him and his bodyguard in the final floor death cutscene from "Withdrawal", where they execute Jake after their attempts to get information from him prove fruitless. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: A common complaint in reviews is that the more wide-open levels combined with the same unpredictable AI from the first game lead to quite a few cheap deaths, such as offscreen bullets and dogs that come out of nowhere at full speed before the player can even react. Also, the console version of the game has an awful auto-aim system that sometimes, instead of targeting the enemy right in front of you, targets an enemy all the way on the other side of the level. And you depend on this aiming system since aiming with the analog sticks isn't good either. | |

Expy: The Soldier scenes are set in Hawaii during a fictional Soviet invasion, but the jungle warfare, weapons, outfits and vehicles evoke The Vietnam War, complete with more than one Apocalypse Now Shout-Out. Some fans have even mistaken the conflict for Vietnam at first glance. | |

Gorn | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_e542d889 | comment |
Gorn: Overlapping with Bloodier and Gorier cited above, this game is bloodier, gorier and even more graphically violent than the first game, with the deaths being detailed enough to go on par with ultraviolent exploitation films like Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky or Cannibal Holocaust. | |

Chain Pain: Chainlinks are a new weapon in this game, commonly seen in the hands of Gang members. They have a slow swing speed and an unique execution where your character uses it to slash the enemy's head apart. | |

San Francisco gets nuked by Russia in 1986 to force a surrender. As a direct result, the Soviet Union and the US begin negotiations to turn the American government into a Puppet State under the "Russo-American Coalition". | |

Pinball Protagonist | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_eadc018f | comment |
Additionally, there are expectations - namely, how nothing ever goes the way people expect. Every character expects something to come out of their exploits and believe that they are working towards a certain fate. However, the only character to get a somewhat satisfying ending is Richter, who just goes with the flow. This is further underlined by the Richard hallucination being comforting and friendly to him, instead of confrontational and taunting. Apart from them, not even the players are safe. | |

Dirty Cop: Asides from Manny Pardo, the security guard enemies are this, implied to be in on a 50 Blessings' operation to get Richter killed in a Prison Riot in "Release", and openly working with the Colombian Cartel at the bank the Son raids in "Blood Money", which is notably the only intentional case of two different enemy factions fighting the player in a level outside the Level Editor. | |

Fission Mailed: In "Final Cut", Martin will get "shot" by Rachael at the end of the precinct shootout scene. Instead of a restart prompt, Rachael will continue to pump lead into him, unaware that the prop gun appears to be real. In Jake's second and final level, "Withdrawal" - dying on the final floor won't give you the restart prompt, but will show a cutscene of Russian mobsters interrogating and killing Jake instead. | |

You Bastard! | |
| Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (Video Game) / int_f642b1f9 | comment |
You Bastard!: Creator Dennis Wedin said that the Fans, who murder in the same way as Jacket for fun, were meant to be a mockery towards fans of the first game who wanted the sequel to be exactly the same. The staged rape scene in the prologue level is potentially another potshot at players - you won't question gorily murdering 5 people, but will be upset when asked to perpetrate an alternate form of violence. Speaking of the Midnight Animal storyline, Martin Brown claims he only relishes his imaginary violence, because it's all just a film — only fictional. Richard questions if this is really the answer. One of the playable characters, Pardo, is revealed to be a serial killer murdering complete innocents for no discernible reason. | |

Photo Memento: During the Hawaiian conflict, Evan Wright takes a photo of Beard and Jacket, which Beard later gives to Jacket to keep as a memento after rescuing him from a power plant explosion at the end of the war, so Jacket could remember "who saved his life". A year later, Beard calls Jacket to tell him to make a copy of the photo for him, shortly before a nuke drops in San Francisco, where Beard was at the time. This photo was the object that Jacket threw into the wind at the end of his storyline in the first game, presumably when he believed that he managed to repay the favor to Beard and thus completed his Redemption Quest. | |
