The gameplay has seen some improvements with the introduction of new mechanics and a more polished experience compared to its predecessor, but many players feel it lacks the humor and novelty that made the first game enjoyable. While the single-player mode is criticized for being too easy and less engaging, the addition of features like comebacks and character-specific challenges adds some depth. Overall, the core mechanics remain similar, making it a mixed experience for those familiar with the original.
- “Obviously as the sequel, new game mechanics are introduced, and tournament, or rather, career mode offers specific challenges for each character as they make their way to the final scene.”
- “New mechanics actually make it more interesting than the previous game.”
- “This game has deeper gameplay mechanics than its predecessor (Oh... Sir! The Insult Simulator).”
- “Gameplay-wise, the single player felt way too easy.”
- “The gameplay is terrible as well; in the first one, when you said something funny, it might not give you many points, but at least you didn't actively lose points.”
- “The downside of this game is that once you've played through a few times, it doesn't bear a lot of repeat single player gameplay.”

The music in the game is a mixed bag, with some players finding it relaxing and creative, particularly the intro, while others criticize the volume levels and the presence of vocal tracks that disrupt the atmosphere. Additionally, there are concerns about the music triggering copyright issues for content creators. Overall, adjustments to volume settings seem ineffective, leading to frustration among users.
- “I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
- “It's a cute and creative intro; I wouldn't change it, except for the music level.”
- “If you're planning on recording this for YouTube or streaming, you may want to consider turning the music off as it triggers a copyright flag.”
- “The sound effects/music are extremely loud (rip headphone users).”
- “I've adjusted the volume in settings for the gameplay itself, but it has no effect on the game intro music (perhaps a bug?).”
- “Songs with lyrics played in the background are not just ruining the atmosphere of this game but also annoy a lot.”

The story is described as having a moral about perseverance and unexpected life changes, with a sequel that adopts a Hollywood-style plot twist. However, it also faces criticism for tasteless humor, a lack of engaging character quests, and weak AI, which detracts from the overall narrative experience.
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “A great sequel that changed the whole plot of the last game to a Hollywood type of feel; definitely worth a try!”
- “This game's story features a Night Shyamalan plot twist that keeps you engaged.”
- “The solo campaign is kind of boring, mostly because the enemies are incredibly dumb; repeating the same quests for every hero is silly - give everyone different quests, so we have something interesting to aim for.”
- “This game's roster is smaller than Donald Trump's hands, and the AI is weaker than the plot twist in the village, and you know it's true!”
- “Night Shyamalan plot twist, but it's full of tasteless racist jokes - and your character has never manscaped and got beauty secrets from nude Tom Hardy.”
