Normies hated the original's unique but traditional design. In response they made the sequel the most by the numbers, conventional thing, imaginable. I hate it. This game is just The Last Of Us with a Evil Within reskin. Shinji Mikami be like "oh you normies don't see my vision? Fine, I won't have anything to do with actually making the sequel. You can eat what these unimaginative Bethesda morons give you lol" Shinji plz come back, I need you . . .
I own the original on PS Vita. This game was there for me when I was going through a hard time and there wasn't anything else going for me. It's sort of standard as far as dungeon crawler JRPG's go, but it has artistic flair that is all its own. The story is pretty good. The characters are the best part. They all feel really unique and will give you the feelz. You can definitely grind out a ton of hours in this game. Even more so if you’re a completionist. If you like dungeon crawling JRPG’s but want 200% more edge than this is for you. I’m super glad this game is on PC now since the micro USB charging port on my Vita is breaking down.
