too little, too late

C'ést pas un chef-d'œuvre et c'est beaucoup trop cher, par contre le scénario est bien, il y a une quantité raisonnable de contenus, le combat final était hype (spécialement avec l'OST Hibana) et... honnêtement c'était vraiment sympa de revoir les persos d'Arise, et le jouer encore une fois car j'avais oublié à quel point le gameplay était addictif
Ah oui et KISARA 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐

This was disappointing. That was an awful ending.
Story (1/3) - It was so good till the halfway point. Just randomly Nazamil decided to leave the group, then the story was fetch quests the video game for 4 hours. Then you find out Nazamil is turning people into slaves....how??? She is now just able to activate the mauzaliums. Then she suddenly listens to nobody when they meet. What a destruction of character development. She was an interesting character till then. Horrible writing. Then at the end, she just leaves and they let her....after the whole point of the game was that she is alone and everyone treats her badly. As if people will forgive her for making them slaves. This was so bad.
Gameplay (2/3) - Same as the main game. The only real issue is that enemies are too tanky. Why do they have so much health, makes boss fights almost 30 minutes long at max level.
Performance (2/3) - Voice Acting was really bad during many skits, where the VAs sound like they gave one shot to read the lines. Graphics are amazing, absolutely beautiful. Some FPS drops in the more graphically enhanced areas.

It's too late, it's too expensive, it's too lazy. Just a few boring dungeons and the rest you've already seen in vanila game. The story is also generic and boring, adds almost nothing to the plot. Please Namco, learn how to make cool expansions from someone like Monolith Soft.
It is too expensive for what it is. It is still good, as the base game is, but it is more or less the same with weaker characters and less interesting story. There are only three new dungeons and they are quite repetitive in terms of gameplay and design. The enemies are also similar to those of the main game. And... to start completely from scratch is never a good idea. Never!
