It's just a really engrossing game. Polished. Thoughtful. Exciting. Combat can still be deeper and more challenging, and I wish there was a bit more on-world exploration (not so linear once you land somewhere). I'd also like more stuff to buy/loot to find. Needs a touch more there - maybe a combo of last game and this game. perhaps it;s oversimplified that way?
But I am just loving the heck out of it. I played 20 hours already, and I didn't have time to pop it in until Friday evening, so that's a lot. I haven't marathoned a game like that for a long time. And I think I"m only halfway-ish. Really taking my time and following all paths/exploring all worlds, etc.
Great game!
