70 hours in and 7 chapters done, I'll be taking a break (probably for a few weeks at least) while I concentrate on Mario + Rabbids and my second playthrough of Breath of the Wild.
I thought the plot ramped up in chapter 7 and became quite interesting (even if every confrontation with the villains is predictable and repetitive), but chunks of the chapter gameplay-wise were a fairly boring slog. I love the game when it comes together, but it trips up over its own systems far more frequently than either Chronicles or X did. Undecided whether I'll power through and finish the main story when I go back to it, or take my time and go through side-quests and try and get more rare blades. I went through 70 common crystals and 8 rare crystals this weekend without a single new rare blade.
Odds are once I've done the main story I'm never going to have time to go back to Chronicles 2 (unless the story-driven DLC is particularly good), so I'm hoping a break means I'll be likelier to spend time doing more sidequests and unlocking rare blades when I go back to it.
