I am a fan of the original game from back in the day. What was changed, generally, from 1st edition to 2nd Edition? I purchased it but it can be hard to tell such changes from a glance.

A lot! It is structurally the same game but there's significant tweaks to every section. Just off the top of my head (some of this will be repeating the store entry bullet points):

  • A myriad balance changes for individual weapons, powers, etc.
  • Better rules for on-foot combat.
  • Alt rules for Critical Failures, Failing Forwards and Exceptional Success in chapter 1.
  • A "Dramatic Finish" rule to make defeating enemies narratively spectacular.
  • An expanded alt rules chapter, I believe custom weapons and corruption were already mentioned but those are the standouts among the new stuff.
  • A jillion more premades.
  • The setting! ft. Cool Fungus Facts!
