Better than the first when it comes to combat, great hud changes, and more fine tuning on how your protagonist operates in the party from the get go.

Don't like that the first generation feels very throwaway in terms of characters and plot, difficulty balancing is scaled very out of your favor (maybe due to how easy 1 was to break if you knew what to do, idk), and just being overall mixed on stuff like the overall plot, the "main villains", and how weak most of the cast were as characters.

Overall I really enjoyed my time with this title but I know where my preference lies between the two.
