Yes, but having nearly every design going for cool factor means no one feels AS cool as they would if they were existing in a more goofy group.

MM2 feels like a rough draft that needed another pass to really shine. As it is, it's kinda undercooked. I think there's a developer interview that says something similar to that as well.

Complaints usually boil down to:
>Stages rarely get a chance to use their foes and obstacles in clever ways, and is very plain for the most part. You can make a case for a number of MM1 stages having more intricate level design than what's in MM2.
>Most weapons are a pain to use, either due to heavy ammo drain or widespread enemy resistance/immunity. They should be one of the better sets on paper.
>Forced damage situations like Wily Machine's bouncing energy, Quickman jumping low + shooting boomerangs, that one Airman tornado pattern, the first bird in Crashman's stage that needs ungodly precise timing and positioning to safely switch ladders and dodge...
