Just finished Xenoblade 2 again... remember why I had such mixed feelings the first time. So boring for the first 3/4 or so. And the last 1/4 is good, but so not worth it. The gatcha mechanics also kind of drag it down, although at least you don't have to pay for rare blades or anything.

For anyone who has played it, is Torna worth it if I felt that way about the main game?

Depends on what elements you disliked about the first 3/4 of the base game.

Torna improves the combat, but if the core gameplay is just not to your liking, it won't change your mind.

I just didn't think the story was that interesting. There main story with Torna, Rex, and Pyra etc was good, but the background political squables between the nations were meh. Gets much more interesting when *spoilers* you get to the world tree and all the other shit takes a back seat. The game was also kind of all over the place with tons of different systems. Upgrading characters, blades, shops, regions, merc missions, salvaging etc etc. When I have too many sidequests available, unless its structured particular well as in Xenoblade X or BOTW, I just kind of don't want to do any of them. 

So, I think a solid overall game could be built on the structure, just don't want to put in 20-30 hours for something that may or may not happen.
