Finished with around 52.68% completion, ??? hours (emulator crashes lost them)

Hello according to Backloggd dot com I have not finished a game in over a year? So here we are again

I started this game like a week early and was pretty hooked, but eventually burnt myself out on it and took a huge break before completing it now.

The new abilities are undoubtedly much more fun than the original game's. Not much to say in praises since you can find that pretty much everywhere.

The half-sequel-half-dlc feel to this game felt really weird to me and was kind of in the back of my head the entire time. It really does follow a very similar progression and you go to the same areas and meet the same people and whatever. But if you played this game on its own that repetitiveness wouldn't be a problem. But if you played this game on your own you wouldn't have any context for anything. But also so much of the original game was just like retconned or erased for some reason. No real point to be made here...

Having a buddy or two was really cool but the full squad? Pretty clunky and annoying, as many have said.

I already get so overwhelmed with open worlds on their own, that it almost felt like with the amount of freedom this game gives in comparison to the previous one I ended up just going straight from point A to point B a lot of the time. I also spent the majority of my time in the depths which was kind of a big mistake because it's pretty undercooked after a certain point. I never actually used the final ability that you get since it uses resources and I have a gamer brain when I play video games.

Also no vai outfit?
