PCSX2 2.0 - First Impressions?

Anyone played with the big new update yet? Thoughts so far?

Thoroughly unsurprised because I’ve been using nightly builds all along, much like many of the more seasoned PCSX2 users, as many of these enhancements have been in the queue for the stable release for years now.

The changes are undeniably incredible, though, and it is nice that they finally updated the baseline after so many years of keeping the stable at 1.6. Thanks to these updates, I got to experience Burnout 3 as it was meant to be, and I fell in love with it thanks to that. The new UI and per-game configs are also great, especially as I play some of the hackier games on it such as Gran Turismo 4. Stenzek [developer of DuckStation] did an incredible job with that.

Also nice to see them finally fixing their release schedule xd. About time they address that.

Edit: expanded on this a bit.
