Overall, the sentiment is mixed. Players appreciate the game's cooperative experience and tactical depth introduced with the new grid-based combat. However, the game is marred by numerous bugs, technical issues, and a confusing user interface, detracting from the overall enjoyment. The choice to reset progress after each chapter is particularly unpopular. Despite its flaws, there remains enthusiasm for the core gameplay loop, especially when shared with friends, though the RNG mechanics and balance are subjects of contention.

  • The user interface (UI) is criticized for being confusing and poorly designed, which can impact gameplay negatively.
  • Players are frustrated with the restart mechanism, where characters and inventories are reset at the beginning of each new chapter.
  • The game balance is questioned, with some players feeling that the difficulty spikes are unfair and hinder progression.

    • Mixed Points

  • While some players appreciate the challenging difficulty and strategic elements, others find the RNG mechanics to be overly punitive.
  • Players have mixed feelings about the grid-based combat; while it adds strategic depth, it can also make encounters feel static and less dynamic.

    • Common Themes

  • The game is perceived as a solid sequel that attempts to build on the original with new features and content, though it struggles with execution.
  • Cooperative play is highlighted as the main draw, emphasizing the importance of playing with friends for the best experience.
