Performance aside, for every huge leap forward the sequel takes in comparison to the original (better map, exploration, class tweaks, mechanic tweaks, physics system, pawn AI, quality of life), it takes like 2-3 steps back (less vocations and skills, worse movement, equipment system, quests, end game, music, characters, and story). Hideaki Itsuno is a great ideas guy and a great director and I'm glad to see his unadulterated vision finally realized after like 20 years, but he definitely needed someone to tell him, "Maybe a mechanic that will kill every NPC in a hub and potentially ruin a playthrough and no new game option is a bad idea."
Dark Arisen was better.

Literally just the first game but instead of being a twin stick shooter indie game, they got that Sony™ money and it's now a fully fledged polished third person shooter. Shocker what that will do for your game's sales. If only they could democratically stomp this game's bugs in their code like you can in the game itself.
(beat village Ivory Lagiacrus, got the real credits) The absolute peak of "classic Mon Hun" with the best monster roster, weapons, armor, maps, village, music, hub, even quest maiden (Moga Sweetheart meme lord > Guildmarm monster fucker, simple as).
Mfs still be like "b-b-but underwater combat" my hunter in christ, you chose not to use Lance.
