there might have been a dungeon or two that ran me up the wall... and i still am not the biggest fan of the level-code/gamble code stuff in the way it was handled... or the equipment enhancement system in general (if its armor, basically only end up using whatever stuff you find that has a huge + on it, and if it's a weapon the materials used to upgrade them are usually too hard to come by).... BUT yeah still a pretty solid crawler that clocks in at a little over 50 hours

playing the first game is not necessary or recommended
